The Imperial Arks are one of the butterflies that are hard to find. But when you come across one of them, you'll see how beautiful they are! Learn a little more about this species throughout the text!
Butterflies are insects, which implies that they have six legs, many receiving wires, and three sections of their body (head, chest, and belly).
Adult butterflies have huge wings with many shaded examples. They have been around for over 56 million years. They are currently in a big family tree!
Butterflies have a life cycle that has four distinct phases. The butterfly starts out as an egg, which is laid on the plant they are going to eat when they are born.
The next stage in the butterfly's life is the point at which it hatches and is known as a caterpillar. Caterpillars are basic in turf, trees and nurseries, and in many cases go through this process quickly.
The third stage of the life cycle is the point at which the caterpillar forms a cocoon, and transforms into a chrysalis.
The caterpillar will spend several days, or weeks, inside this chrysalis, until it is fully prepared to develop as a butterfly.
They sit for a few hours until their wings dry, and at that point it's ready to take off.
Butterflies can be found all over the world, with the exception of Antarctica, and there are about 19,000 unique species.
Regular butterflies are known for their long movements, which is the point at which they fly to an alternate part of the nation, or world, when the weather changes.
This tour is so long that a butterfly will not have the option of finishing the entire tour during its lifetime. Different ages of butterflies are needed to find a viable relocation rate.
Most butterflies only eat nectar from flowers. They may also eat some powder, tree sap or spoiled natural product. Unlike during their organization into caterpillars, adult butterflies can simply expend liquid.
The moment they dry out, they will taste the water from damp fixations on different surfaces or on leaves.
Sometimes they are even pulled into the salt that is in human perspiration!
Among some predators that are after these wonderful winged beings are: Wasps, flies, frogs, some creepers and creatures with feathers.
And how do butterflies get fixed then? Perhaps the most ideal way for butterflies to protect themselves is to use their wings.
Frogs eat dragonflies. In addition to using them to flee from danger or things that are trying to hurt them, butterflies have adjusted to have wings that disguise their environment.

Wild Hummingbird Bathing in The Rain - Atlantic Forest of Brazil
O beija-flor, também conhecido como colibri, cuitelo, chupa-flor, pica-flor, chupa-mel, binga, guanambi, guinumbi, guainumbi, guanumbi e mainoĩ, é uma ave da família (Trochilidae), composta por 108 gêneros e 322 espécies conhecidas. No Brasil, alguns gêneros recebem outros nomes, como os rabos-brancos do gênero (Phaethornis) ou os bicos-retos do gênero (Heliomaster). No sistema classificativo de Sibley & Ahlquist, a família Trochilidae integrava uma ordem própria, a Trochiliformes. Entre as características distintivas do grupo contam-se o bico alongado, a alimentação à base de néctar, oito pares de costelas, catorze a quinze vértebras cervicais, plumagem iridescente e uma língua extensível e bifurcada.
O grupo é originário das Américas e ocorre desde o Alasca à Terra do Fogo. A maioria das espécies é tropical e subtropical, vivendo entre as latitudes 10ºN e 25ºS. A maior biodiversidade do grupo encontra-se no Brasil e no Equador, que contam com cerca de metade das espécies conhecidas de beija-flor. Os troquilídeos estão ausentes do Velho Mundo, onde o seu nicho ecológico é preenchido pela família Nectariniidae, da ordem Passeriformes.

Toulouse Goose
Originally from Toulouse (France), famous for the production of liver paste (“Paté de foiegras”). They are bred with interest not only in the south of France, but in many countries in Europe and America. It is the best known and recommended breed for this country.
Thick plumage, full and soft, gray, as described in each region and corresponding to wild type.
Large head, short and wide, with a high gray dome. The beak is short, strong, high at the base, flat at the tip, yellow or pale orange, with no black spots in the adult. Large eyes, not very prominent, dark brown or hazel.
Medium neck, slightly arched, very vigorous, dark blue-grey, lightening as it approaches the back. In adults it is preferable to have a jowl in the throat.
Large vigorous wings, softly glued to the side, dark gray primaries, even darker secondaries but with a narrower light gray border. Dark gray covered with a very thin hard edge of lighter gray.
Protruding chest, full, broad, low and round, with a long, well-placed keel, light gray.The main purpose of the rearing of Toulouse geese, although also used for storage and ornamentation, is slaughter for the production of meat and use of fatty liver for the paste. Feathers, which are very abundant, are a by-product of not negligible value. Submitted to a good diet, they can reach 4kg in 10 weeks and 5 to 6kg in 5 to 6 months, being, therefore, very precocious. Adults can be fed and in this case they have reached 15kg. This feed is easily done. So the weight of the liver reaches 2 kg and the lard 3. The meat is not very thin, nevertheless it is one of the best of the species. It is difficult to distinguish between the sexes, although the male is larger and more elegant. Geese lay an egg every other day, in spring, young ones 15 to 25 and older ones up to 60 eggs. They do not require water for swimming, although it is believed to be useful for reproduction. They hatch late and incubation is unsafe, lasting 28-30 days. Breeding the goslings is relatively easy. Both in North America and in Brazil, it is the most common breed, not only because it is the most adapted to the farm regime, but also because it is more suitable for barley. Heavily pastes, living largely on the consumption of herbs, but their prolonged stay in high, moist pastures is harmful to them.
