Kangaroo life expectancy of approximately 9-18 years. Although sometimes there are kangaroos that can survive up to 28 years ..

If we call this kangaroo animal must be identified with their home country, Australia. But did you know that these animals not only have our neighboring country australia. Indonesia also has a place where these animals live. Such as, the area where the marsupials that live at one with nature beautiful.

Until now there are approximately ten types of kangaroos in the Indo-Pacific locations. Half in Indonesia. Moreover, among them newly discovered type. Mbaiso tree kangaroo (dendrolagus mbaiso) is found at the location of the sub-alpine forest of Papua. Type the others are ornamental tree kangaroo (denrolagus goodfellowi), tree kangaroos ndomea (dendrolagus dorianus), tree kangaroos nemena (d. Ursinus), as well as tree kangaroos wakera (dendrolagus inustus). Form and type of animal is naturally not much difference. Just are not the same size. Kangaroos are marsupials strange animals and strange. Similar faced deer, way to step back foot jump and has a size greater than the 2nd front legs.

Population Kangaroos

The group is also used to live among the dense jungle and undergrowth. A form of tree kangaroo tail is rather long and round and hairy from the base to the tip of its tail, but form a more pointed snout of muzzle form kangaroo land. In the land of kangaroos 2nd front legs plus smaller than the hind legs, tail tapered at the ends and not hairy. Snout not too pointy and not hairy like the tree kangaroo. Then smaller claws. Perhaps this is in accordance with needs that do not need to hold on to branches.

Hamsters are mammals including rodents families who have a variety of species and almost in every country. Hamsters are often used as laboratory animals (due to their rapid reproduction) along with mice and other rodents.

You know the animals Pangolin? Yes maybe the animal is a little strange to hear, but there are also some people who have know about the life of the animal. Pangolin is one animal that is categorized as a unique animal because it has a characteristic that is different from other animals in general.

Actually, these animals are mammals of the family Manidae which are only a few or only some of which can be found in Indonesia. This is what makes animals Pangolin well as rare animals.

Actually, in the animal world itself is composed of eight pangolin species widely spread in Africa and Asia. Only the number of animals is not too much because the pattern of the breed are few and too many threats from outside that of humans.

Weight pangolin scales capable of achieving up to 20% of their total body weight so that the animal is classified as a powerful animal.

In addition to the skin, other unique animals Pangolin is the shape and size of its tongue. Pangolin tongue has a size longer than the pangolin agency. because tongue this long, making pangolin is able to reach his food until at long distances even he can eat ants from the nest hole.

Every day, anteaters eat ants capable of up to 70 million ants. Pangolin actually have no teeth. Their meals using the gravel and thorns keratin to smooth the food that is in the stomach.

When the breed and give birth to a child, the mother anteater will take care to avoid enemies or other animals that prey on these children.

Turtle is a reptile zoo is pretty much kind with the ability to live too long. Animals running slow is generally close to human life, both as pets and wild animals were abandoned because there is no one type disturb. But turtle is a wild relative, the turtle named alligator Alligator Snapping Turtle latin.

Freshwater turtles are one size greatest. Some their kind ever weighed 113 kg when kept in an aquarium in Tennessee, USA. Chicago has also been discovered species of turtles with a weight of 107 kg. Even in 1937 have been found in Kansas, USA, and weigh up to 183 kg.Liar BeastsCompared with freshwater turtles, alligator turtle shape is very different. The real difference can be seen from the shape Shell unique shell or carapace.

Characterized by the shape of the carapace shell three rows of protrusions osteodermis similar to the shape of animals ancient. Turtle owned many turtles can carry camouflage with the environment through the shell shell-like brownish-green moss. These include turtle-eating animals of all kinds, though actually more like food or meat carnivores.

Supported by the behavior of the prey like a crocodile, it is not surprising when a turtle called turtle crocodile. Food provided will be eaten, either soft vegetables and carcass.

Reflexes movement while preying crocodile-like, what he or she is also very fast. Moreover, it also has a tongue-shaped worms that can be extended, and is often used as a trap to catch fish in pool. ProtectedTortoises included in Macroclemys genus comprises three species that are found only in North America. But due to human hunt, turtle populations of rare and endangered species declared. In fact since 2006, CITES has set alligators turtle as a protected species and forbidden to be traded.

Ants are small insects that much playing around on the ground, or looking for sweet foods. If the saying goes There's sugar, There were ants, hehe. This time I will discuss about the Japanese Ants ant not play around to find the sugar. Here is a glance of the Japanese Ant and benefits.

Solenodon a venomous species of mammals only one of the family Solenodontidae. They are nocturnal animals that live in burrows and eating insects. And they are mammals who have supposedly primitive character of these species already exist at the end of the dinosaur era.

Solenodon is one of two species of Caribbean soricomorphs family. It remains unclear whether the family Nesophontidae extinct during the Holocene has a close relationship with Solenodon or not.

There are two species of Solenodon still alive today is Cuban Solenodon (Solenodon cubanus), and Haitian Solenodon or Hispaniolan Solenodon (Solenodon paradoxus). Solenodon other two species have gone extinct during the Quarternary.

Solenodon appearance resembles the figure of a very large mouse. Muzzle length is flexible, and the Haitian Solenodon there is a ball-and-socket joint at the bottom of them to improve mobility. This allows them to get narrow crevices where prey they usually hide.

Solenodon body length of about 28 to 32 cm measured from tip of nose to rump. Solenodon weight of about 0.7 to 1 kg. This rare animals fairly easily agitated, so they are prone to bite even with very minimal interference and accidental.

Solenodon has some pretty interesting properties, two of which are nipples on females Solenodon position very close to the buttocks, and Solenodon saliva coming out of two turns poisonous fangs.

Symptoms resulting from exposure to toxins Solenodon among others depresei, labored breathing, convulsions, and paralysis. Even in a test using mice, when exposed to toxins Solenodon in large quantities can result in the rat experienced death.

Solenodon main food is insects, earthworms, and some invertebrate animals. They also feed on dead animals with backbones, and some are preying on vertebrate animals are still alive as small reptiles, and amphibians.

Solenodon have a good sense of smell that is used to locate prey. After finding prey, Solenodon will use both front legs to turn left-right move the prey, then move her head to prey on such prey. Solenodon also have sharp claws that will help in the hunt for prey.

Solenodon birth to her son in the hive. Usually in all their labor will give birth to one or two chicks. Solenodon puppies will be with its mother for approximately 7 months, and usually they will hang on the nipple of the mother long. And when fully grown, Solenodon are solitary animals, they are very rarely communicates with another except for mating.

Both species Solenodon currently in endangered status due to predation by raccoons, especially civet species Herpestes javanicus auropunctatus that in the colonial period were trained to hunt snakes and rodents such as cats and dogs ..

Cuban Solenodon once considered extinct, before in 2003 found the species they are still alive. Hispaniolan Solenodon also had declared extinct because their population is very small, and their behavior is still poorly understood.

Human development in Cuba and Hispanola also aggravate Solenodon population. Their habitat becomes deprived of the impact on narrowing of the spread, and reduced their population. The animals also became one of the very rare animal.

Monito del monte / monkey small mountain is a small monkey that lived in South America (Chile and Argentina). Monito del Monte is the Spanish term for calling Little Monkey. But the name is deceiving. Monito del Monte is actually a marsupial that lives in Chile and Argentina. He is a mammal species considered extinct more than 11 million years ago. However, modern explorers discovered the creature.

This little monkey has a body like a mouse with brown fur and big, pointy ears and long tail. It distinguishing the animal was a big eye size and the fact that he lived in the trees of tropical forests. Then, a long tail that has help overcome can swing from tree branches. These animals are nocturnal and arboreal. They live in the bush bamboo Chilean Valdivian temperate rain forests of the southern Andes. Prehensile tail tree branches. These animals feed on insects, other small invertebrates and fruit. The body length is 11 to 12.5 cm. 9-10 cm long tail.

They make a nest like a ball of leaves that hold water in the tree. The leaves are then coated with moss or grass, and placed in protected areas. Nest is sometimes covered with moss shaped gray camouflage, and equipped with some protection from the cold, either when active or when it hibernates. They typically store fat at the base of the tail for winter hibernation.

Allegedly their ancestors from Australia. They immigrated in two continents are connected through the Antarctic in the early Cenozoic. Primitive animals such as mice that lived about 55 million years ago.

Monito del monte usually reproduce in the spring. Females have pseudovagina, and a fur-lined pouch. Monito del monte adult children remain with the mother after weaning. The age of sexual maturity they were after the age of 2 years.

Komodo dragon (Varanus Komodoensis) is a large lizard species found only in a few islands in the Indonesian archipelago. Was first known to the world in the First World War, the Komodo actually a species 'Monitor Lizard' which has grown on the island were isolated for millions of years, which has led to her developing very large. Komodo is not only the largest lizard in the world, but also one of the most aggressive and powerful that he was able to hunt prey that size is many times more than its size alone. However, the existence of dragons is now in danger of extinction due to loss of their natural habitat, poaching, and also a decline in the amount of their food.

Komodo is a large reptile that can grow up to three meters long and weigh 150kg. They are very strong with a stocky body, strong legs and a tail that is used for hunting and fighting. Komodo has long claws and sharp curve that is often used to dig the soil. Komodo also has a greyish brown bark that is covered with small scales and folds around the neck. Komodo has a head that is relatively small compared to the large body size and wide, powerful jaws that hides her mouth filled with the deadly bacteria. Although dragons have good eyesight, they do tend to rely on odor perceived through bercabangnya long tongue. By removing his tongue out, dragons are able to feel the scent particles in the air to find prey at a distance of up to 8 km. Komodo is known to have fifty types of toxic bacteria in saliva. Toxic saliva that is used as the main weapon dragons to hunt their prey. Toxic saliva that is produced by the venom glands are found in the mouths of dragons.

Komodo

Komdo limited only found in five islands in Indonesia which are all included in the Komodo National Park. The five islands are Komodo, Rintja, Gillimontang, Padar and the western tip of Flores Island. In the five islands, the Komodo dragon is often seen in open forests with dry savanna, on the hillside thickets, and can also be found inhabiting a dry riverbed.

Komodo is a solitary predator (alone) is strong surf hinga area 2 km per day depending on size. They are also known as an excellent swimmer, traveling from one island to another with relative distance away. Although they are solitary animals, known to some dragons will often gather together. When hunting prey, dragons can secretly hiding for hours in the vegetation are well camouflaged by the skin of gray to wait for passing prey animals. Komodo then suddenly menyergapan prey with speed and incredible strength. The first attack dragons usually only hurt their prey with some bite. Buruanya usual prey will be able to escape. However, because in the mouth of dragons are very deadly bacteria, the prey animal will die within 24 hours.

When the breeding season comes (in September), jantah komodo dragons will do perkelahan with another male. The fight is done by standing on their hind legs and propped up by their tails, to win the right to breed with local females. After mating, the female Komodo lay up to 25 eggs in a hole he dug in the soft sand. The eggs will mentetas fter incubation period lasts between 8 and 9 months and they will be totally independent of when they left their shells. However, the pups will stay and spend most of his time on the tree until they are big enough to take care of themselves on the ground. Komodo tend to live for an average of 30 years in the wild.

Komodo dragons are carnivores that hunt down and kill large animals to survive in the surrounding natural habitat. Komodo dragons are capable of killing prey much larger than themselves ukuranya their own bodies. For larger prey, dragons usually ambush their prey and injure the body with bite that is filled with bacteria. Komodo then follow their prey for until she died of poisoning caused by the deadly bacteria from the mouth of the dragons. Large mammals that prey hunted dragons are wild boar, goats, deer and even horses and buffalo. In addition, the dragons also seen to prey on small animals in trees such as snakes, lizards and birds. Sharp and jagged dragons teeth and, therefore, they could not chew. Instead they rip their prey carcasses by pulling back into their mouth and then swallowed whole aided by their neck muscles flexible.

In fact, dragons are the most dominant predators in the habitat. Therefore adult dragons have no natural predators in their natural habitat. Komodo is an animal cannibals. Adult Komodo dragons will devour the smaller and vulnerable. To that end, the young dragons usually spends most of its time in trees to avoid the larger adult dragons. Komodo biggest threat comes from the loss of habitat due to human development that opened in the original habitat of the Komodo dragon land for settlements and agriculture. Komodo also threatened by volcanic activity on the island is still geologically active that can cause a decrease in their prey species, which in turn affects the dragon populations themselves.

Today, Komodo listed by the IUCN as endangered species. Though once widespread dragon populations on various islands in Indonesia, they are now limited only in five of Flores island with a population of between 3,000 and 5,000 head only. Komodo uniqueness makes it a tourist attraction in itself. It makes people who coexist with dragons trying to protect native habitat dragons where they still survive.

Hippopotamus is the term for mammal native to Africa that is easily recognizable thanks to body fat, large snout, short legs, his dark skin, and his habit of spending time with a soak in the water. Bathing habit is precisely what led to the hippopotamus has the English name "hippopotamus", said uptake of the Ancient Greek language, which means "river horse". But despite having frills name of the horse (hippo), hippos did not have a kinship with horses.

Hippopotamus is the largest land animals after elephants on the African continent. Its length reaches 5.4 m, while weighing up to 3.6 tonnes. By looking at her physical appearance is stout and short-legged, hippos seem to only be able to move slowly. But in fact, the hippo was able to run up to speeds of 30 km / h if necessary! Hippopotamus also has an aggressive behavior and did not hesitate to attack other animals that are nearby. Mouth and front teeth were large hippopotamus make any creature that is attacked by a hippo could suffer a severe injury. Behavior which then makes the animal as fierce crocodiles, lions do not even dare to look for problems with adult hippopotamus if not forced.

Bongsor bodied animals can be found in fresh waters, marshes scattered in central Africa, east, west. In the past, the hippopotamus is believed to have a wider distribution can be found in southern Africa and the Nile River to the north. Interestingly, although hippos spend most of its time in the water, hippos are not animals who could swim. Consequently, the hippopotamus was more like spending time by wading in the fast-flowing waters are calm and not too deep.

The main reason hippos spend most of its time in the water is so hippos can avoid the scorching heat during the day. As a further form of protection against the sun, glands in the skin of hippos produce a kind of slimy liquid that absorbs ultraviolet waves and inhibit the growth of bacteria on the skin. The liquid is colorless when first released by glands, but when exposed to sunlight the liquid turns red within minutes. That is why in the past, the liquid is known as the "sweat blood" (blood sweat).

Herbivorous CRUEL AND DANGEROUS

Hippos are herbivores in which plants were the main food is grass growing around the waters in which they live. In the afternoon, hippos spend time with rest while bathing. When the sun goes down, then the hippo out of the water to eat. Hippopotamus also want to eat the carcasses of the animals, but it is rarely done by hippos because their digestive systems are less suited for digesting meat. If you need to clean yourself hippopotamus, hippopotamus will open a big mouth in the water so that the remnants of food stuck in the inside of the mouth of the hippopotamus could be eaten by small fish.

Hippopotamus display behavior that resembles a social animal. Some tail hippos that live in the same habitat will form the group consisting of 10-100 tail of a hippopotamus. The group usually consists of a male hippo as its leader and some tail female hippopotamus and her children. Not infrequently fight broke out between two tails male hippopotamus because the fight over the same area. But the battle between fellow male hippopotamus rarely led to fatal because when one of 1 hippopotamus successfully demonstrate the superior physical strength, the hippopotamus which one normally would relent and go away to another place.

Hippopotamus does not have a specific mating season, but the hippopotamus has kencederungan to breed more frequently during the rainy season. Hippopotamus who had just had sexual intercourse with males will enter a period of gestation for about 8 months. After that, the female will give birth in the water where the number of babies given birth normally only issued once a. Baby hippopotamus later life of its mother's milk until the age of 1 year. The age of sexual maturity in male hippos are 7-9 years old, while the female hippopotamus age of sexual maturity is 8-10 years. Male hippopotamus who have experienced sexual maturity will leave the group to live alone or form a new group.

As a result of its large size and aggressive behavior, hippos do not have a lot of enemies. On the other hand, aggressive behavior also makes hippos often killed by humans. Hippopotamus touted as one of the most deadly animals in Africa as a result of the many people who were killed by a hippopotamus. Along with the reduction of wildlife habitat and the development of human settlements, the friction between hippos and humans became more and more frequent. In addition to the safety factor, other reasons humans kill hippos is to take the skin, flesh, and fangs. By animal conservation organizations IUCN, hippopotamus population is now considered to be included in the category of "vulnerable".

Do you know stingray ,? probably not familiar stingray following is a glimpse of stingrays that you may not know. Stingray is one of the cartilaginous fish, alike shark. They entered the suborder Myliobatoidei of Myliobatiformes, they consist of eight families: Plesiobatidae (stingray water inside), Hexatrygonidae (stingray sixgill), Urotrygonidae (light round), Urolophidae (stingarees), Dasyatidae (stingray whiptail), Gymnuridae ( ray butterfly), Potamotrygonidae (stingray river), and Myliobatidae (eagle rays).

Stingray spines are venomous stings that one or more of the tail, is used for self-defense. Stinger length can reach about 35 cm, the bottom has two fangs like grooves with venom glands. Stinger covered with a thin layer of skin where the toxins are concentrated, some members do not have a sting ray.

Stingrays live in coastal marine waters of tropical and subtropical throughout the world, and there are also species found in warm temperate seas, such as Dasyatis thetidis, and is found in the deep sea, as Plesiobatis daviesi.

This now stingrays are not endangered, but in some species such as D. colarensis, Taeniura meyeni, D. garouaensis, and D. laosensis), conservation status makes them vulnerable or endangered in the IUCN.

Agency stingray and the average is very fortunate for them because they are easily able to hide themselves from the environment. They stir the sand and hide underneath.

Stingrays have eyes on top and while his mouth is on the underside, with this then stingrays can not see their prey, instead they use smell and electroreceptors (ampullae of Lorenzini) which is similar to a shark. Food stingray particularly mollusks, crustaceans, and small fish. At the mouth of a stingray, there are two strong canine.

Green peafowl (Pavo muticus) is one of three species of peacock bird. As with other types of birds found in parts Phasianidae, peacock green also has a beautiful coat. Feathers golden green.

Green Peacock scattered populations in open forests with grasslands People's Republic of China, Indochina, and Java, Indonesia. Previous peacock green are also found in India, Bangladesh, and Malaysia, but all three countries the population is extinct. Although very large, peacock green are a clever bird to fly. In the breeding season, the males dance in front of the tail feathers of peacocks females. Tail feathers cover is opened to form a fan with eye-shaped spots. Female birds incubate three to six eggs.

Physical Characteristics Green peafowl

Peacock green feed consists of a variety of grains, grass shoots and leaves, a wide variety of insects, as well as various types of small animals eg spiders, worms, and small lizards. Often also called the peacock pretty hooked worms.

Here are a few species of jellyfish are pretty and cool.

AEQUOREA VICTORIA

Jellyfish is known by the name AEQUOREA VICTORIA also called jellyfish crystal (crystal jellyfish). These jellyfish can be encountered on the west coast of North America. Jellyfish is physically colorless and transparent tentacles nematocysts that are used to catch prey. Nematocysts and also has been used in research and science because there is a protein called with GFP.

GFP soon is one of the proteins that can form a neon green color blue found on the body Aequorea Victoria. GFP was also used by the scientists to create a rabbit that glows in black light.

Australian Box Jellyfish

These jellyfish are most dangerous. Australian Box Jellyfish they have the shape of a cube, and also the jellyfish is not easy to see because his body is transparent and rapid movement. They goodness mutants and their eyeballs are on their stomachs.

The hat looks at when tentacles are not used, however these animals have a very painful sting but not to kill humans. They feed on small fish captured by injecting venom with his tentacles.

Black bear (Ursus Americanus) is one bear subspecies are found inhabiting a variety of forest habitats across North America. Black bear is a sub-species of bears with the highest population number even when compared with the number of sub-species of bear in the world. Black bear is also one of only two sub-species of bears that are not listed by the IUCN as endangered. Conservation effort goes well make the black bear population growth with a healthy walk.

Despite their name is the black bear, black bear hair color can vary from black to dark red or brown and even in certain areas, the color black bears could be light brown. Black bears have short, thick fur covering their bodies. They also have a pointed snout, small eyes and ears are larger and more pointed than their relatives that the brown bear. There are some striking differences between black bears and brown bears. Black bears have shoulders and legs and claws are shorter than the brown bear. Short legs and claws that they have made the black bears become much more agile climber than brown bears. So that when they meet, black bears can climb trees faster to avoid conflict with the brown bear. Like all other sub-species of bears, black bears have an excellent sense of smell that is used to detect food. Hearing and vision while black bears are underdeveloped, because ears and their eyes are relatively small.

Black bears are solitary animals (live menyediri) and nocturnal (active at night). Black bears spend most of their time looking for food each day to ensure that they build sufficient fat reserves for the winter. When winter comes, black bears will go to nest, usually located under a tree hollow, where they will hibernate (winter sleep) for months. Time hibernating black bears varies. Black bears that live in the north have a longer hibernation up to 8 months. While the black bears that live in its South section has a relatively short period of hibernation.

Black bear male and female will meet for mating in summer. After a gestation period which lasts for about 7 months, a female black bear will give birth to between one and five children in late winter in the nest. Black bear cubs will stay with their female parent until they are nearly two years and have learned the skills they need to survive on their own. After quite mature and independent, black bear children will perform their own travel.

Although technically classified as carnivores, mostly black bears diet comes from plants. Between 75% and 95% of their diet is vegetarian (depending on the food available at different locations). Black bears usually eat fruits, nuts, grasses, roots and tubers. And to supplement their diet, black bears eat small animals such as insects and rodents. Black bears are also known to young deer hunting, eating carcasses and also be able to catch fish in the river. Black bears spend on average 12 hours a day to eat to build up fat reserves for the winter.

Black bears do not actually have the predators in their environment. However, black bears are common in conflict with grizzly bears alive are much more aggressive in some areas. Black bears often escape by climbing a tree to escape from the conflict with a grizzly bear. Black bear cub who is weak be hunted foxes, and bird meat eaters. Although black bears and humans tend to have a relatively peaceful relationship, they are often persecuted by farmers who fear their livestock being eaten by black bears. More black bear populations are threatened by poaching and loss of their natural habitat due to deforestation.

Red-eared slider is also known as a turtle '' red-ear slider '' or in Latin '' Trachemys scripta elegans ''. This is due to the red color tinge right behind his eyes that resemble red ear. Red-eared slider comes from the southern United States, has a shell color mixture of green and yellow. Durability Red-eared slider turtle makes strong adaptable to any environment. Age turtles can reach the age of 20 years with a maximum length of about 30 cm. Red-eared slider breed by laying eggs. The amount varies between 20 and 45 grains depending on the fertility and weather. Red-eared sliders are usually laying around August to September before the rainy season. and for hatching takes about 3 weeks. After hatching Red-eared slider will soon find the water to grow up. Red-eared slider dark green with yellow stripes and have a red spot on each side of his head. These turtles can be easily distinguished by the lower jaw is more rounded than the type pseudemys more boxes. Hind toes are connected by a membrane like a duck because they are aquatic animals. to distinguish the sexes, males have longer claws on the front legs. while at the female cloaca closer to the shell than males.

Because Red-eared sliders are aquatic animals, therefore we need to put in the aquarium or pond that is comfortable and designed specifically to meet their needs. if we do not want to provide an outside, the aquarium is the best solution for the Red-eared slider. in addition, by using the aquarium, we could be easier to clean. Red-eared sliders are aquatic animals and they dispose of their waste into the water, so if we do not maintain a healthy aquarium or pond then it will become a hotbed for germs and bacteria, to the aquarium and pond should always be clean for the health of turtles hanging from the cleanliness of the aquarium or pond. if not using the filter, clean it every other day. for baby turtles, cleaned every day and do not use products that abresif. For aquarium size can be adjusted to the size and number of turtles owned. aquariumnya the bigger, the better for turtles, because the turtles are growing very fast in the first years. And the recommended water is about 3/4 of the length of the turtle. Of most turtle keepers recommend to use the filter tube 403. Fluval as Red-eared sliders are cold-blooded animals, so we have to keep the temperature stable between 20 ° C to 28 ° C by using the '' submersible heater '' or heating water in the form of a long tube containing coated wire. in addition, we need to provide a basking area for turtles, where turtles can be completely dry basking in sunlight or a special lamp reptiles, because in the wild, turtles will spend the time to bask under the sun. this is very important, because warmer temperatures can increase the body's immune turtles, and Red-eared slider requires UV light to be able to process food properly and absorb nutrients from food. to add a decoration on a pond or aquarium should be careful. for example, want to add rocks, must choose the type of rock that is not sharp because of sharp rocks can injure tortoise shell. then the addition of sand or plastic plant is not recommended, because there is a possibility turtles will eat and can cause serious intestinal complications.

Kiwi bird is one of the species of birds that can not fly. Its body can grow to the size of a chicken, with a weight of 2-5 kg. Natural distribution area of ​​this bird species was limited only in New Zealand. This bird is found in three species, Apteryx australis contained in the three main islands of New Zealand. While Apteryx oweni and Apteryx haasti only found in the South Island alone. Bird is said to live for 20 years this is a bird that is faithful to their partner. Strangely only the females more dominant in the marriage arrangement like this model turned out to be very special and fair. It is very rare even in the world of birds and many privileges of bird kiwi bird is compared with Pets another, How come? The key to the division of tasks. During breeding the female energy will largely be spent to remove the eggs. Although only 1-2 eggs, egg size Kiwi bird unusually large. In addition to its size, the weight of this egg is astonishing, can weigh up to 25% by weight of the parent body! Compared to relatives, ostrich eggs only 2% of the body weight of the mother, and the weight of a human baby is approximately only 5% of the weight of the mother and the egg is incubated about 75 days - 80 days. Therefore, the rest of the work done by the males, including smoothing affairs nest, lay eggs, to accompany the child feeding after eggs hatch. Great right? Kiwi bird's nostrils are almost at the end of the beak, no tail and wings are very small, because the circumstances are very small wings that kiwi bird can not fly. Slim and sharp beak which is in line with the food that is small animals such as worms and other animals. Kiwi bird's nostrils are almost at the end of its beak.

Kiwi bird is nocturnal bird whose life is out and looking for food at night. Kiwi is looking for food at night.

Uniquely, the tip of the beak there is a sense penyecap food. His love of food is earthworms, soil insects, fruit bushes, and small animals that smell. kiwi usually live in holes large tree roots. Breeding season is the time to make the territory. Territory size is determined by the extent to which the male voice cries could still be heard. The breadth varies, from only 2 hectares to more than 100 hectares. These birds have only one partner during their lifetime. Unlike other birds outside of New Zealand, who lives with mammals, birds of New Zealand issued a pungent odor while producing wax to protect their feathers. While sleeping kiwi fond folded and head into the half, then cover it with feathers. If the enemy visit, kiwi will save themselves by running.

Currently the kiwi species including a rare animal, then by maketh it as an icon of the State will encourage many conservation efforts and protection for the survival of kiwi from extinction. It turns kiwi bird can only live in the dark. If they are exposed to sunlight, then they will be sick and old can cause death. Kiwi smelled like mushrooms or ammonia. This is what could be causing the species is now threatened with extinction.

Redline freshwater fish Pipefish look like a sea horse straight bodied with a small mouth. Pipefish name is derived from their snout strange shape, like a long tube, ending in a narrow and small mouth that opens upward and toothless. Body and long tail, thin, like a snake. They have a skeleton modified as formed into a thin plate.

There his back fin and gill cover openings placed near the posterior angle. Redline pipefish swim very slowly over the surface of the water, moving slowly drifting like a twig, but if there is interference, he could move quickly.

Sudan is the name of northern white rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum cottoni) male left in the world. When it dies, it can be ascertained, northern white rhinoceros also extinct. Only one-horned animal in the world to be the last hope in an effort to preserve their species from extinction. Therefore, do not be surprised if the 43-year-old rhino is now guarded 24 hours. The armed rangers risking their lives in the nature reserve Ol Pojeta, Kenya, Sudan to protect the horn must be cut for the sake of safety, so as not to become a target for hunters.

Sudan was transferred from the zoo Czech Republic in 2009 to Ol Pojeta that has specialized for rhino conservation. The nature reserve was chosen because it has been a success with the black rhino breeding program. White rhino conservation project received a major blow, when a rhinoceros other males died last October 2014. Thus making Sudan became the only hope left. Age was 43 years, adding to worries though a rhinoceros live to the age of 50 years. Displacement Sudan initially expected to push for the breed, but all attempts have so far failed to make Sudan fertilize two females in Ol Pojeta.

Further complicated by the disruption of security and stability in Kenya, by acts of terror from militant groups such as Al-Shabaab. The group massacred 150 students in an attack in Kenya, in early April. The price of ivory has now increased to more than £ 40,000, or about Rp767 million per kilo. Especially for white rhino rhino horn only one in the world such as Sudan, the price can be much more expensive.

The current situation is very sad, considering that in the past this species can move freely on the African continent, from southern Chad, the Congo to Sudan. According to data from the WWF, half a century ago still exist 2,000 white rhinos, but in 1984 only 15 of which are located in the tail of the Congo. When the experts managed to avoid extinction. They can breed white rhinos to be more than 30 tigers in less than 10 years. But the increased poaching of rhinos in the nature reserve and is lost entirely.

Hopes resurfaced when it was discovered a white rhino in 2006. Efforts to breed back the white rhino has so far not succeeded. Efforts to maintain Sudan was very difficult. A total of 40 ranger in charge of maintaining the safety of Sudan, at a cost of £ 75,000 or USD 1.4 billion for the six months.
