Wild Life

When fish, shrimp or other aquatic creatures swim together in a loose cluster, this is typically called a shoal. It can be a mix of different species. A school is a group of the same fish species swimming together in synchrony; turning, twisting and forming sweeping, glinting shapes in the water. Fish probably do this to confuse predators and to save energy (by using the ‘slipstreams’ of other fish). Pods are herds of marine mammals including whales, dolphins, walruses and seals.

There Are Around 393 Species of Parrots There are lots of different types of parrots out there. mostly found in tropical and subtropical regions . The order is subdivided into three superfamilies : the Psittacoidea , the Cacatuoidea , and the Strigopoidea . Scientific name : Psittaciformes Clutch size : Hyacinth macaw : 1 - 4 Higher classification : Psittacopasserae Lifespan : Kakapo : 40 - 80 years , Hyacinth macaw : 50 years Mass : Kakapo : 2 - 4 kg , Hyacinth macaw : 1.2 - 1.7 kg , Buff - faced pygmy parrot : 12 g Length : Hyacinth macaw : 100 cm , Buff - faced pygmy parrot : 8.6 cm Parrots Eat With Their Feet All birds have amazing grip but only the parrot is able to hold food up to their beak while eating .They can grasp onto their food with one foot and then move it up to their beak so they can nibble on it . In fact , parrots eat very similarly to how we do . Their fleshy toes act a lot like how human fingers do . Most Parrots Can Imitate Sound Parrots imitate sound so that they can fit in with their surroundings . These social birds don't like to feel like they're missing out , so they mimic sounds they hear around them to communicate . They don't have vocal cords as humans do , they use the muscles in their throats to direct the air differently , which allows them to mimic sounds such as a ringing phone , creaking door or a barking dog .

Lionfish facts : Lionfish are native to the Indo - Pacific region and the Red Sea . Lionfish belong in the Scorpaenidae family . Commonly called scorpionfishes the family includes approximately 500 different species . The genus name " Pterois " is from the Ancient Greek word for " feathered " or " winged . " There are 10 species of lionfish in the genus . average between 13 - 16 inches ( 33 - 40 cm ) in length . The red lionfish and devil firefish is almost always striped in white , dark red , brown and black with dark spots found in orange fin rays and caudal fin ( tail ) . It is not uncommon to find these fish turning almost entirely black . Lionfish reach adult size in approximately 2 years . The largest record lionfish measured a little over 47.7cm or 19.5 inches and was speared near Islamorada , Florida in the United States . In lab studies , lionfish die when water temperatures reach 50 degrees Fahrenheit or 10 degrees Celsius . Lionfish have been visually sighted down to depths of 1000 feet or 305 meters . Female lionfish are sexually mature and will release eggs when they reach 7 to 8 inches in length , or approximately one year old . A female lionfish can release between 10,000 and 30,000 unfertilized eggs every 4 days year around , approximately 2 MILLION eggs per year , in South Florida and warmer Caribbean waters but possibly only spawn 3 to 4 months a year in colder waters . She will typically release 2 egg sacs that are between 1 and 2 inches long every spawn . It has been reported that the egg sac contains a chemical deterrent that discourages other fish from eating the eggs .

Saltwater fish , also called marine fish , are fish that live in ocean water . Saltwater fish can swim and live alone or in a large group called a school . Saltwater fish are very commonly kept in aquariums for entertainment . Many saltwater fish are also caught to be eaten , or grown in aquaculture The National Zoological Gardens of South Africa ( NZG ) has the largest inland marine and freshwater aquarium in the country . Housing a total of 1692 freshwater and marine fish . The marine fish boasts a variety of vivid colours in different shapes and sizes adding a vibrancy to the aquarium but they're not just pretty to look at , some of the marine fish have special characteristics . Here are interesting facts about some of the marine fish housed at the NZG aquarium . Not all marine fish are the same - they are divided into herbivores , carnivores and omnivores each requiring different types of food . Marine fish drink water - unlike Freshwater fish that do not actively drink water , but absorb the water through their skin and gills . Saltwater fish do actively drink sea water . Their gills process the water and take out the salt . . Fish can drown in water - fish need oxygen , and they can suffocate and drown as they require a consistent intake of oxygen to survive . Their gills absorb oxygen from water molecules as water passes through the gill membranes . Sharks are the only fish that have eyelids- All sharks have at least two eyelids , an upper lid and a lower lid ; however , these eyelids can't move , which means sharks can't blink . Blacktip female sharks are capable of self reproduction - This phenomenon is called Parthenogenesis and results in the production of female offspring . This happens only when a female cannot find a partner for reproduction

Roe deer , ( genus Capreolus ) , also called roebuck , small , graceful Eurasian deer of the family Cervidae ( order Artiodactyla ) . There are two species of roe deer : the European , or western , roe deer ( Capreolus capreolus ) and the larger Siberian roe deer ( C. pygargus ) . Despite their Old World distribution , roe deer are more closely related to New World deer than to Old World deer . They are well adapted to cold environments , and they range from northern Europe and Asia into the high mountains of Central Asia , and south to Spain . The roe deer's coat is reddish brown in .............. summer and grayish brown with a conspicuous white rump patch in winter . The male has short , usually three - tined antlers that are roughened and enlarged at the base , apparently to protect the skull against antler punctures . An almost tailless deer , the European roe deer stands 66-86 cm ( 26-34 inches ) at the shoulder and rarely exceeds 30 kg ( 66 pounds ) in weight . Siberian roebucks weigh about 50 kg ( 110 pounds )

COMMON NAME : Asian Elephant SCIENTIFIC NAME : Elephas maximus TYPE : Mammals DIET : Herbivore GROUP NAME : Herd AVERAGE LIFE SPAN IN THE WILD : Up to 60 years SIZE : Height at the shoulder : 6.6 to 9.8 feet WEIGHT : 2.25 to 5.5 tons Asian elephants live in the tropical forests and grasslands of Southeast Asia . They're a little smaller than African elephants but can grow nine feet tall and weigh nearly six tons . That's heavier than two medium size cars ! Even newborns are on the hefty side , weighing some 200 pounds . Given their size it's no surprise that these guys are big on food . Adults can eat 300 pounds in one day , nearly 75 times what the average human eats ! An Asian elephant's ideal meal includes roots , grasses , fruit , and bark . Much of an Asian elephant's time is spent searching for grub . In fact the animal may travel 50 miles a day to find food . Asian elephants also enjoy taking dips in the water . To cool down their backsides , the animals will fill their trunks with water and spray it over themselves like a hose .

Phylum : Cnidaria Class : Scyphozoa Classification : Invertebrate IUCN status : Not evaluated Lifespan ( in wild ) : One year Weight : Up to 2kg Body size : 2cm to 2m Top speed : 8km / h Diet : Fish , shrimp , crabs , tiny plants and even other species of jellyfish Habitat : Oceans Range :Jellyfish have been around for millions of years , even before dinosaurs lived on the Earth . Pulsing along on our ocean currents , these jelly - like creatures be found in waters both cold and warm , deep and shallow and along coastlines , too . Some jellyfish are clear , but others are vibrant colours of pink , yellow , blue and purple . They be bioluminescent , too , which means they produce their own light ! Jellyfish have no brain , heart , bones or eyes . They are made up of a smooth , bag - like body and tentacles armed with tiny , stinging cells . These incredible invertebrates use their stinging tentacles to stun paralyse prey before gobbling it up

Chameleons or chamaeleons are a distinctive and highly specialized clade of Old World lizards with 202 species described as of June 2015. These species come in a range of colors, and many species have the ability to change color. Chameleons are distinguished by their zygodactylousfeet; their swaying gait,and crests or horns on their brow and snout. Most species, the larger ones in particular, also have a prehensiletail. Chameleons' eyes are independently mobile, but in aiming at a prey item, they focus forward in coordination, affording the animal. stereoscopic vision. Chameleons are adapted for climbing and visual hunting. They live in warm habitats that range from rainforest to desert conditions, with various species occurring in Africa, Madagascar, southern Europe, and across southern Asia as far asSri Lanka, They have been introduced to Hawaii, California and Florida.

Bears are carnivoran mammals of the family Ursidae. They are classified as caniforms, or doglike carnivorans. Although only eight species of bears are extant, they are widespread, appearing in a wide variety of habitats throughout the Northern Hemisphere and partially in the Southern Hemisphere.

Red colobuses are Old World monkeys of the genus Piliocolobus. It was formerly considered a subgenus within the genus Procolobus, which is now restricted to the olive colobus. They are closely related to the black-and-white colobus monkeys, and some species are often found in groups with the blue monkey.

Giraffa camelopardalis, with nine subspecies. However, the existence of up to nine extant giraffe species has been described, based upon research into the mitochondrial and nuclear DNA, as well as morphological measurements of Giraffa. Seven other species are extinct, prehistoric species known from fossils.

For maintaining a healthy ecological balance on this earth, animals, plants and marine species are as important as humans. Each organism on this earth has a unique place in food chain that helps contribute to the ecosystem in its own special way. But, sadly today, many of the animals and birds are getting endangered.
