Colobus are unique animals among monkeys, they are four-fingered, there is no thumb on their hand, this can be seen when the colobus in the video picks up a cabbage in its paw. The name of the monkeys "colobus" comes from the Greek word meaning "disfigured". Colobuses, despite this, perfectly move through trees using their four fingers as hooks, they are very good jumpers and can change direction right in flight. They are also not afraid to jump from a height of 8-10 meters to lower trees.

Cute baby orangutan is so similar to a child that you want to take it with you, adopt it and give it an education. A cute baby orangutan plays with a piece of wood so directly that it reminds me of my son at the age of two. Probably there is no one in the world more like the children of people than the babies of orangutans. The fun of a cute baby orangutan can be watched for many hours, energy and ingenuity in inventing tricks can only be envied. According to some sources, the orangutan is considered the most intelligent animal after humans. Orangutans live only in the rain forests of the Islands of Kalimantan and Sumatra. Almost all their lives they spend on trees, on which they move with the help of very long arms (their span-up to 2 m-significantly exceeds the growth of a monkey), helping themselves with their feet. Interestingly, orangutans are so adapted to life in trees that they usually drink water from leaves, hollows, or just lick it off their fur after the rain. When, in rare cases, orangutans do descend to the ground, they move on all four limbs. At night, orangutans build nests for sleeping, usually a new one each time. Orangutans live alone, only the cubs are kept with their mothers and occasionally there are groups of two females. Females generally are to periodically meet with each other peacefully and can work together to feed. The males remain on their own territory and do not like strangers. When meeting, the first demonstration of strength occurs: loud growling, breaking branches, and so on. If no one retreats, seeing the superiority of the opponent, a fight occurs, which usually ends with one of the wrestlers giving up and running away. But in General, the nature of orangutans is quite peaceful.

While timid gophers hide in their burrows after hibernation, some brave gophers check the belongings of people who have come to bathe. And always brave gophers are rewarded with delicious seeds that people take with them to feed the gophers.

Squirrel. How many of you will notice a woodpecker? While the squirrel is selflessly gnawing sunflower seeds, the woodpecker is always somewhere nearby... So it is with people: someone is busy with their own business, and someone is watching others.

Spring came and the gophers returned to active life after hibernation.

In 2009, when I was working on the Yamal Peninsula, I witnessed one of the last flights of the legendary Mi-10K helicopter. The last Mi-10K helicopter was fulfilling its last contract to install cell towers along the pipeline under construction. Created in 1965 as a civilian modification of the MI-10 (Harke) helicopter, the mi-10K crane helicopter performed installation of high-altitude objects, often in remote areas of the Arctic. After fulfilling the contract, the helicopter MI-10K is decommissioned.

Porcupine looking for a treat. The porcupine is mainly a mountain animal that also lives in foothill plains, including cultivated ones, although it is occasionally found in sandy deserts. Settling among the rocks, the porcupine makes a lair in caves and natural depressions, in deserts-between stones; in softer soil, it digs holes that have a complex structure and are equipped with several exits. The porcupine burrow often exceeds 10 m in length, going underground up to 4 m. There are 2-3 extensions in the burrow; in one of them there is a green-lined nest. The porcupine is not particularly afraid of human proximity and often settles near villages. The porcupine is almost exclusively nocturnal. He spends the day in a hole and comes out only after dark. the porcupine does not hibernate in winter, but in cold weather it is less active and less likely to leave the den. During the night, he can go several kilometers from his home. in the places of their transitions, porcupines leave well-marked trails. on such trails, an experienced tracker can easily find the porcupine's lair. The porcupine feeds on plant food. In spring and summer, it eats green parts of plants, roots, bulbs and tubers. later, in the autumn, after the ripening of cultivated plants, it feeds mainly on their fruits — it eats watermelons, melons, cucumbers, pumpkins, grapes, alfalfa. In winter, it eats a lot of tree bark, gnawing on the lower parts of trees. Occasionally, apparently, to make up for the lack of salt in the body, he eats insects. Cubs are born sighted and with developed teeth. Their needles are very soft at first, but harden very quickly and after a week are able to prick strongly. Milk feeding does not last very long — perhaps no more than two weeks. As for the natural enemies of the porcupine, there are few of them-the quills give the porcupine excellent protection even from the tiger and leopard. When an enemy attacks, the porcupine first warns-quickly stomping its hind legs, shaking its needles, making a characteristic loud crack. If the enemy does not retreat, the porcupine stabs the pursuer with a quick short throw backwards. Multiple wounds from porcupine quills are one of the main reasons for the appearance of cannibals among tigers and leopards in Africa and India. An animal that has run into a porcupine and received several dozen needles in its muzzle and paws cannot pull them out and becomes disabled, unable to hunt its usual prey — ungulates. In order not to die of starvation, predators can only attack people who, like ungulates, can not quickly escape from the beast that has lost its former mobility. Because of this protection, the porcupine does not show fear of large animals. He does not give way even to the car, trying also to threaten him with needles — many porcupines die in this way under the wheels.
