Three-toed Sloth
Three-toed sloths spend most of their time in the trees, only coming down to the ground once a week to use the bathroom.
Tibetan Mastiff
There are two types of recognized Tibetan mastiffs that can come from the same litter known as Do-khyi and Tsang-khyi.
Markhor
The markhor subspecies look similar but can be distinguished by their horns, like some have straighter horns or they flare out more.
Maned Wolf
The maned wolf is the tallest of the wild canids. Their long legs are probably an adaptation to the tall grasslands where it lives.
Fire Salamander
Not only does the venom of a fire salamander harm predators, but it can also coat itself in its venom to withstand flames.
Atlas Moth
The tips of the atlas moth’s wings look like snake heads which can be used as a strategy to ward off predators.
Red-Shanked Douc
Both genders of the red-shanked douc have similar colorations. These beautiful colors give them the nickname “queen of primates.”
King Penguin
During the day, a king penguin can dive between 350-1,000 feet in search of food. They dive down for about 5 minutes before returning.
African Clawed Frog
When food and water is scarce, the African clawed frog will burrow itself in the mud and remain dormant for up to a year!
South American Coati
The South American coati’s tail does not grasp onto branches to aid in climbing but instead gives balance.
