Flamingos are large birds that are identifiable by their long necks, sticklike legs and pink or reddish feathers. Flamingos embody the saying "you are what you eat." The pink and reddish colors of a flamingo's feathers come from eating pigments found in algae and invertebrates. There are six species of flamingo, according to the Integrated Taxonomic Information System (ITIS): greater flamingo, lesser flamingo, Chilean flamingo, Andean flamingo, James' (or puna) flamingo and American (or Caribbean) flamingo.

What is a wasp? Wasp, any member of a group of insects in the order Hymenoptera, suborder Apocrita, some of which are stinging. Wasps are distinguished from the ants and bees of Apocrita by various behavioral and physical characteristics, particularly their possession of a slender, smooth body and legs with relatively few hairs. Wasps also generally are predatory or parasitic and have stingers with few barbs that can be removed easily from their victims. Similar to other members of Apocrita, wasps have a narrow petiole. Wasps have biting mouthparts and antennae with 12 or 13 segments. They are normally winged. In stinging species, only the females are provided with a formidable sting, which involves use of a modified ovipositor (egg-laying structure) for piercing and venom-producing glands. Adult wasps may feed on nectar and, in some species, on the secretions produced by larvae. Larvae of predatory wasp species typically feed on insects, while larvae of parasitic species feed on their hosts.

This spider is commonly known as the brown widow,[2][3] brown button spider, grey widow, brown black widow,[3] house button spider or geometric button spider, is one of the widow spiders in the genus Latrodectus. As such, it is a 'cousin' to the more infamous Latrodectus mactans (black widow). L. geometricus has black and white patterns on the sides of its abdomen as well as an orange-yellow colored hourglass shape. Their eggs are easily identified by points that project from all over the egg sacs. L. geometricus are found all over the world, but are believed to originate in South America. Their bites, though painful, are not considered to be dangerous.

Hope you guys like this short video clip of this really cute bunny rabbit on the grasslands. Animals are great the way they live out in the wilderness. They have no rules and regulations as us humans do. They are totally free to do what they want and when they want, they only have to watch out for predators while they are out in search of food.

Squirrels spend autumn stashing nuts away for winter, but how do they find them again? Sense of smell, memory and chance all play a part. Red and grey squirrels can’t find enough food every day during the winter, and they’d starve to death if they didn’t make appropriate preparations. That means stashing nuts to make it through the winter, but first they must select the right ones: squirrelling food away is a waste of effort if it’s not nutritious and in good condition. The rodents recognise ripe nuts by smell, much as we tell a ripe melon from one that’s hard and tasteless. Squirrels also reject acorns and hazelnuts that have been hollowed out by weevils, whose larvae develop inside the protective shell. By handling these dud nuts, the animals recognise that they are too light, tossing them aside – experiments show that hollowed-out nuts filled with plaster will fool squirrels into storing them away. In an autumn when food is abundant, squirrels have plenty of spare time to collect nuts one at a time in their mouth. They scrape a small hole in soft earth and bury their prize, patting the soil down on top to hide it from birds.

#pet,#animal,#baby,#kid FEEDING THE YOUNG To keep up with the food demands of nestlings, their parents continuously forage for food. This is an extremely dangerous time for both the adult and young birds because the increased activity and begging cries of nestlings can attract predators. After 2 or 3 weeks, most songbirds are usually ready to leave the nest. Other birds, such as raptors, may stay in the nest for as long as 8 to 10 weeks. In contrast, precocial birds spend hardly any time in the nest and are often seen wandering in search of food alongside their parents only hours after hatching. LEAVING THE NEST Most birds nest only once per year, but some species, like the American Robin, can have up to 4 or 5 nests during a single breeding season. After leaving the nest (fledging) young birds typically remain close to their parents for a short period. During this time, young birds must learn to survive on their own and are very vulnerable to predators and starvation. The first year is the toughest; in nearly all bird species, more than half of the first year birds perish. For birds that do make it to adulthood however, the odds of surviving another year improve greatly.

Sharks are a group of elasmobranch fish characterized by a cartilaginous skeleton, five to seven gill slits on the sides of the head, and pectoral fins that are not fused to the head. Modern sharks are classified within the clade Selachimorpha (or Selachii) and are the sister group to the rays. However, the term "shark" has also been used for extinct members of the subclass Elasmobranchii outside the Selachimorpha, such as Cladoselache and Xenacanthus, as well as other Chondrichthyes such as the holocephalid eugenedontidans. Under this broader definition, the earliest known sharks date back to more than 420 million years ago.[3] Acanthodians are often referred to as "spiny sharks"; though they are not part of Chondrichthyes proper, they are a paraphyletic assemblage leading to cartilaginous fish as a whole. Since then, sharks have diversified into over 500 species. They range in size from the small dwarf lanternshark (Etmopterus perryi), a deep sea species of only 17 centimetres (6.7 in) in length, to the whale shark (Rhincodon typus), the largest fish in the world, which reaches approximately 12 metres (40 ft) in length.[4] Sharks are found in all seas and are common to depths of 2,000 metres (6,600 ft). They generally do not live in freshwater although there are a few known exceptions, such as the bull shark and the river shark, which can be found in both seawater and freshwater.[5] Sharks have a covering of dermal denticles that protects their skin from damage and parasites in addition to improving their fluid dynamics. They have numerous sets of replaceable teeth.[6] Well-known species such as the tiger shark, blue shark, great white shark, mako shark, thresher shark, and hammerhead shark are apex predators—organisms at the top of their underwater food chain. Many shark populations are threatened by human activities. Since 1970, shark populations have been reduced by 71%, mostly from overfishing.

Dolphins are small-toothed cetaceans easily recognizable by their curved mouths, which give them a permanent “smile.” There are 36 dolphin species, found in every ocean.Most dolphins are marineand live in the ocean or brackish waters along coastlines. There are a few species, however, like the South Asian river dolphin and the Amazon river dolphin, orboto, that live in freshwater streams and rivers. The largest dolphin, theorca, can grow to be over 30 feet long. The smallest, the Maui dolphin, is just five feet long. Dolphins feed chiefly on fish and squid, which they track using echolocation, a built-in sonar that bounces sound waves off prey and reveals information like its location, size, and shape. An echolocatingbottlenose dolphincan make up to a thousand clicking noises per second. Behavior and reproduction Living in pods that can number a dozen or more, dolphins are intenselysocial mammals that communicatewith squeaks, whistles, and clicks. Whether dolphins have language, as humans do,is a topic that scientists have debated for decades. As mammals, they have warm blood and nurse...

Solifugaeis anorderofanimalsin theclassArachnidaknown variously ascamel spiders,wind scorpions,sun spiders, orsolifuges. The order includes more than 1,000 describedspeciesin about 153genera. Despite the common names, they are neither truescorpions(order Scorpiones) nor truespiders(orderAraneae). Most species of Solifugae live indry climatesand feed opportunistically on ground-dwellingarthropodsand other small animals. The largest species grow to a length of 12–15cm (5–6in), including legs. A number of urban legends exaggerate the size and speed of the Solifugae, and their potential danger to humans, which is negligible.

This semiaquaticlizardis found only inChinaand Vietnam. It is gray-brown with red-orange markings along its throat and sides. Two rigid rows of scales along its tail give thisreptilea crocodilian appearance. ... These reptiles are sexually dimorphic, meaning males and females look different. TheChinese crocodile lizard(Shinisaurus crocodilurus) is asemiaquaticlizardfound only in cool forests in theHunan,GuangxiandGuizhouProvinces of southernChina, and theQuảng Ninh Provincein northernVietnam. The Chinese crocodile lizard spends much of its time in shallow water or in overhanging branches and vegetation, where it hunts its prey of insects, snails, tadpoles, and worms. Individuals in captivity may be fed baby mice.[3]A rare and little-studied lizard, it is listed inCITESAppendix II, which regulates international trade of specimens.[2]This is the only species in themonotypic genusShinisaurus.

Pythons are nonvenomous snakes found in Asia, Africa and Australia. Because they are not native to North or South America, they are considered Old World snakes. The word python can refer to both the family Pythonidae or the genusPython, found within Pythonidae. There are 41 species of python found within the family Pythonidae, according to theReptile Database. Though both pythons and boas are large constrictors, they are separate families. Physical characteristics The family Pythonidae contains some of the largest snakes snakes in the world, according to Sara Viernum, Wisconsin-based founder ofThe Wandering Herpetologist. “Most pythons are large snakes … such as the reticulated python (Python reticulatus), which can grow over 30 feet [9 meters] in length,” she said. “There are also small species of pythons such as the anthill python (Antaresia perthensis), which only grows up to 24 inches [61 centimeters] in length and is considered the smallest python species in the world.” The coloration and size of different species of python vary widely. Depending on their local habitats and need for camouflage, coloring can range from elaborately patterned scales (such as those on the Burmese python, the ball python and many other species) to solid brown (leiopythons) to bright green (the green tree python), but scientists note some more subtle physical commonalities.

A very skillful feline climbing up a wall towards a Clock while it's other friendly cat looks on from the floor. Akittenis ajuvenilecat. After being born, kittens display primaryaltricialityand are totally dependent on their mother forsurvival. They do not normally open their eyes until after seven to ten days. After about two weeks, kittens quickly develop and begin to explore the world outside the nest. After a further three to four weeks, they begin to eat solid food and grow adult teeth. Domestic kittens are highly social animals and usually enjoy human companionship.

The(Odocoileus virginianus), also known as thewhitetailorVirginia deer, is a medium-sizeddeernative to North America, Central America, Ecuador, and South America as far south as Peru and Bolivia.[2]It has also been introduced toNew Zealand, all theGreater Antillesin theCaribbean(Cuba,Jamaica,Hispaniola, andPuerto Rico[3]), and some countries inEurope, such as theCzech Republic,Finland,Romania,Serbia,Germany, andFrance.[4][5]In the Americas, it is the most widely distributed wildungulate. In North America, thespeciesis widely distributed east of theRocky Mountainsas well as in southwesternArizonaand most of Mexico, aside from Lower California. It is mostly replaced by theblack-tailedormule deer(Odocoileus hemionus) from that point west except for in mixeddeciduousripariancorridors, river valley bottomlands, and lower foothills of the northern Rocky Mountain region fromSouth Dakotawest to easternWashingtonand easternOregonand north to northeasternBritish Columbiaand southernYukon, including in theMontana valley and foothill grasslands. Texas is home to the most white-tailed deer of any U.S. state or Canadian province, with an estimated population of over four million[citation needed]. Notably high populations of white-tailed deer occur in theEdwards Plateauof Central Texas. Michigan, Minnesota, Iowa, Mississippi, Missouri, New Jersey, Illinois, Wisconsin, Maryland, New York, North Dakota, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Indiana also boast high deer densities. The conversion of land adjacent to the Canadian Rockies into agriculture use and partial clear-cutting ofconiferous trees(resulting in widespread deciduous vegetation) has been favorable to the white-tailed deer and has pushed its distribution to as far north asYukon. Populations of deer around theGreat Lakeshave also expanded their range northwards, due to conversion of land to agricultural uses favoring more deciduous vegetation, and localcaribouandmoosepopulations declining. The westernmost population of the species, known as theColumbian white-tailed deer, once was widespread in the mixed forests along theWillametteandCowlitz Rivervalleys of westernOregonand southwesternWashington, but today its numbers have been considerably reduced, and it is classified as near-threatened. This population is separated from other white-tailed deer populations.

The falcons are the largest genus in the Falconinae subfamily ofFalconidae, which itself also includes another subfamily comprisingcaracarasand a few other species. All these birds kill with their beaks, using a "tooth" on the side of their beaks—unlike thehawks,eagles, and other birds of prey in theAccipitridae, which use their feet. The largest falcon is thegyrfalconat up to 65cm in length. The smallest falcon species is thePygmy falconwhich measures just 20cm. As with hawks and owls, falcons exhibitsexual dimorphism, with the females typically larger than the males, thus allowing a wider range of prey species.[2] Some small falcons with long, narrow wings are called "hobbies"[3]and some which hover while hunting are called "kestrels".[3][4] As is the case with many birds of prey, falcons have exceptional powers of vision; the visual acuity of one species has been measured at 2.6 times that of a normal human.[5]Peregrine falconshave been recorded diving at speeds of 320km/h (200mph), making them the fastest-moving creatures on Earth; the fastest recorded dive attained a vertical speed of 390km/h (240mph).

Domestic cats, no matter their breed, are all members of one species. Felis catushas had a very long relationship with humans. Ancient Egyptians may have first domesticated cats as early as 4,000 years ago. Plentiful rodents probably drew wild felines to human communities. The cats' skill in killing them may have first earned the affectionate attention of humans. Early Egyptians worshipped a cat goddess and even mummified their beloved pets for their journey to the next world—accompanied by mummified mice! Cultures around the world later adopted cats as their own companions.
