The possum and her puppies
The possum, also called possum, saruê or possum in Bahia, mucura in the Amazon, timbu in Paraíba, Pernambuco and Rio Grande do Norte, cassaco in Ceará, Alagoas and in the Pernambuco countryside, micurê in Mato Grosso, taibu, tacaca and ticaca in São Paulo and Minas Gerais[1], in addition to being erroneously called fox in the South region for stealing chicken eggs[2] is a marsupial mammal of the genus Didelphis, found from the southern United States to South America. It is one of the largest marsupials in the didelphiid family. It's omnivorous. Its main predator is the wild cat (Leopardus spp.). Because of the name it is sometimes confused with the skunk (Mephitis mephitis),[3] which is not a marsupial, but a mephithid.

Good friends!
Good friends!
A Rottweiler (José Alfredo) and a Pinscher (Nairobi), he is six and a half years old and she is one.
Even though he's giant and very rough he knows how to play with her. And she takes advantage of her small size to jump and walk on top of him. This is proof that in the animal world it is not difficult to become good friends.
The origin of the name Rottweiler was due to the popularity that the breed gained in the city of Rottweil, Germany. There, a city recognized for being a great pole of butchers, the dog was called Rottweiler metzgerhund (butcher dog), for being used to pull the meat carts.
.
Pinscher:
A lot of people think they are descendants of the Doberman, but Pinschers came much earlier. Records prove their origin in Germany about two hundred years ago, but much older paintings and records depict dogs very similar to the breed, which leaves the origin of these dogs in doubt.

baby bentivi
The ben-te-vi (Brazilian Portuguese) or great-kiskadi (European Portuguese) is a passerine bird of the Tyranidae family with the scientific name Pitangus sulphuratus. The species is also known by the Indians as pituã, pitaguá or puintaguá. Other existing appellations are sad-vida, bentevi (this spelling is not recognized by the Portuguese Orthographic Vocabulary),[2] bem-te-vi-verdadeiro, bem-te-vi-de-coroa, tiuí, teuí, tic- tiui. The European Portuguese version of the word resembles the Anglophone one: great kiskadee. In Argentina, it is known as bichofeo, twentyveo and benteveo; in Bolivia, as cold; and, in French Guiana, as kikiwi or qu'est-ce qu'il dit.
