ABOUT ANIMALS HADITS

The tiger (Panthera tigris) is the largest


living cat species and a member of the
genus Panthera. It is among the most
recognizable and popular of the world's
charismatic megafauna. It featured
prominently in the ancient mythology
and folklore of cultures throughout its
historic range and continues to be
depicted in modern films and literature,
appearing on many flags, coats of arms,
and as mascots for sporting teams. The
tiger is the national animal of India,
Bangladesh, Malaysia and South Korea.

Horses are herd animals
The herd association offers them protection and
security. Therefore, horses naturally do not like
to be alone. The herd is led by an experienced
leading animal, which is usually recognized
without any arguments. Horses have a fixed
ranking within the group. Rules in dealing with
each other ensure their ability to survive in the
herd. Fighting for rank, which can be observed
particularly well with young horses, but also with
new grazing partners, is part of the natural
behaviour. The position of superiority is either
accepted by the inferior animal on the basis of
the behaviour of the more dominant horse or is
"fought out" in each case. Often a single
confrontation is sufficient for this

Cats are wonderful pets; in fact, over
25% of US households share their
home with a feline companion,
according to the AVMA (American
Veterinary Medical Association).
They’re cute, cuddly, comical, and
provide delightful companionship! But
there are some things you will want to
keep in mind to keep your cat's health
in tip-top shape. Since August 22 is
National Bring Your Cat to the Vet
Day, we're sharing 5 habits that
positively impact the health of your
cat!

Training a dog to sit, stay, or come is a learned
behavior for them, as they don’t speak our
language. Like any learned behavior, it’s
possible to forget these commands if time goes
on without using and practicing them. So once
your dog understands these commands, it is
important to continue training them to keep
them fresh in their minds.

It can also be fun and exciting for your dog to


learn new commands as they master the basics.
Dogs love a challenge, so learning new
commands activates this drive to learn and
work. Try to incorporate even just five minutes
of training each day into your daily routine
with your dog to keep them engaged.

lion, (Panthera leo), large, powerfully built
cat (family Felidae) that is second in size
only to the tiger. The proverbial “king of
beasts,” the lion has been one of the
best-known wild animals since earliest
times. Lions are most active at night and
live in a variety of habitats but prefer
grassland, savanna, dense scrub, and open
woodland. Historically, they ranged across
much of Europe, Asia, and Africa, but now
they are found mainly in parts of Africa
south of the Sahara. An isolated population
of about 650 Asiatic lions constitute a
slightly smaller race that lives under strict
protection in India’s Gir National Park and
Wildlife Sanctuary.

Foxes are extremely adaptable - they can
thrive in a variety of environments
including in and around human habitats
such as farms and suburban neighborhoods.
While they’re quite flexible, red foxes favor
open spaces with available cover. One
important element of a fox’s environment is
a nearby source of freshwater like a stream,
creek or lake

Deprived of the animal kingdom’s equivalent of
Boots, Elephants have instead displayed
incredible intelligence in foraging their natural
environment for cures and remedies to ailments.
There’s a specific word for this:
zoopharmacognosy –an animal’s knowledge of
medicine, and Elephants have a PhD in it. They
often eat dirt (geophagy) to neutralise toxins
from plants they’ve eaten, and induce labour
using the Boraginaceace tree. Recent research has
even discovered that the South African elephant
fought off extinction with the help of
Ganoderma – a mushroom used in traditional
Chinese medicine as an anti-cancer and anti-viral
agent. People who live near these elephants even
boil elephant poo and drink it, much as we would
drink herbal tea for its health benefits

With some minor exceptions, all eight bear
species have roughly the same appearance: large
torsos, stocky legs, narrow snouts, long hair,
and short tails. With their plantigrade
postures—walking upright on two feet—bears
walk flat-footed on the ground like humans but
unlike most other mammals.

Bears range in color with species: Black, brown


and Andean bears are typically red-brown to
black; polar bears are generally white to yellow;
Asiatic bears are black to brown with a white
patch and sun bears are brown with a yellow
crescent on their chest. They range in size from
the sun bear (47 inches tall and weighing 37
pounds) to the polar bear, (nearly 10 feet tall
and weighing 1,500 pounds).

Deer are very social and travel in groups
called herds. The herd is often led by a
dominant male, though with some species
the herds are segregated by sex.
Sometimes the females will have their own
herd and the males will have a separate
herd. In other cases, a female herd is
watched over by a herd of males. Some
caribou herds can have as many as 100,000
members, according to ADW.

Most deer are active throughout the day,


though their most active times are during
sunrise and dusk. They spend their days
foraging for food

he giraffe is the most iconic and
awe-inspiring creatures and the tallest
mammal on earth. Both ancient and
modern cultures revered it and described it
as being magnificent in appearance. But
they are weird too, with their long necks
and legs, large eyes and long lashes,
ambling gait and calm demeanor as well as
striking coat pattern. They play a unique
role in the ecosystem by eating leaves too
high for use by other animals. Giraffes spot
the predators before any other animals
because of their height, and then they
warn the others about the danger through
their soundless communication method
22
But due to expanding human populations and
development, the species is now restricted to around
20 isolated patches of bamboo forest in six mountain
ranges in China's Sichuan, Shaanxi and Gansu
provinces.

Most of the remaining wild pandas live in the


Minshan and Qinling mountains. And it is here that
WWF has focussed its giant panda conservation work,
supporting the Chinese government's efforts to
conserve the species.

Since habitat loss is the most serious threat to the


panda, establishing new reserves and extending
existing ones are crucial to its survival.

After a significant increase in recent years, China now


boasts a network of 67 panda reserves, which
safeguard more than 66% of the giant pandas in the
wild and almost 54% of their existing habitat.

Hippos aren't the world's largest land
mammals—that honor belongs, by a hair, to
the largest breeds of elephants and
rhinoceroses—but they come pretty close.
The biggest male hippos can approach three
tons and 17 feet, and apparently, never stop
growing throughout their 50-year life span.
The females are a few hundred pounds
lighter, but every bit as menacing, especially
when defending their young.

Hippopotamuses have very little body


hair—a trait that puts them in the company
of humans, whales, and a handful of other
mammals. Hippos have hair only around
their mouths and on the tips of their tails.
