Warthog ivory is taken from the constantly growing canine teeth. The tusks, more often in the top row is worked much reduced in the form of elephant tusks with all designs. Thinning hair covers the body. Common warthogs no subcutaneous fat and skin is thin, making them. During the rainy season boars feed on short perennial grasses. During the dry season Live bulbs rhizomes and roots of nutrients. Warthogs are powerful search engines, using both snout and paws. Warthogs wallow in the mud with the high temperatures and huddle together to try to cope with the low temperatures.

Although capable of fighting (males aggressively fighting each other during mating season) first defense of the boar escaped through Sprint. Main warthog predators are humans, lions, leopards, hyenas and crocodiles. Cheetahs are also capable of capturing boars to suit your own weight and Verreaux Eagle Owls prey like eagles and martial piglets times before. However, if a female boar pig anyone defend aggressively. Warthogs can be fatal injuries to predators such as lions inflict formidable battle ends with sometimes bleed to death with the lions. Warthogs mongooses observed band allowing their spouses to eliminate ticks. Warthogs are not territorial, but take a wide house. Warthogs live in groups called sounders. Women live in sounders with their young and with other women. Women tend to stay in their natal group and leave men, but remain within the home range.

Connecting sirens adult males only stylish women. Warthogs have two glands of the face, tusk gland and sebaceous glands. Men tend to score more than women. Warthogs use tusk marking for courtship to determine the antagonistic behavior and condition. Warthogs are seasonal breeders. Boars with two strategies clutch while the road. In the "tactical" look boars bristles roaming talent and compete for them. Boars will wait for sows produced outside their burrows. A dominant boar boar move another to woo his female. For "tactics alone", monogamy, polygamy, defense or resource defense polygamy promotes female, while "roaming tactic" promotes scramble competition polygamy.

If you are about to give birth, sows temporarily leave their families, the birth of a separate hole pull 2-8 piglets will stay with the sow in the typical 2-4 hole for several weeks nursing their piglets. Warthogs have been observed in allosucking participation. Fostering piglets nurse sows when they lose their own trash, makes cooperative breeders.

Grouse

 

The Life of Animals | Grouse | Grouse are heavily built like other Galliformes chickens. They vary in length from 31 cm (12 inches) to 95 cm (37 inches), with a weight of 0.3 kg (11 ounces) to 6.5 kg (14 lbs). Males are larger than females twice as heavy in the capercaillie, the largest member of the family. Grouse feathers have noses. Unlike other Galliformes, birds lack spurs These feed primarily on buds, catkins vegetation, leaves and branches, which normally accounts for over 95 percent of adult food weight. Many forest species in life is characterized by the consumption of large quantities of needles, rejecting most other vertebrates. To digest food facility, grouse are the main crops and gizzards, eating grain to break down food and have developed bowel with blind where symbiotic bacteria digest cellulose.

Prairie species are more social and tundra species (grouse, lagopus) are the most social, forming flocks of up to 100 in the winter. Most species stay within their nesting area year-round, but make small seasonal movements of many individuals ptarmigan (grouse is called in America) and willow (Willow Ptarmigan is called in America) migration hundreds of kilometers. In all but one species (willow ptarmigan), males are polygamous. The displays feature bright colors and combs for men in some species, colorful inflatable bags on the sides of the neck. The female lays a clutch, but can be replaced if lost eggs. The eggs are in the form of chicken eggs is yellow and pale brown hardly stained. Female (and male grouse) are with them and protect them until their first autumn, when they reach their adult weight (except grouse males).

The three tundra species have retained their previous figures. Prairie and forest species have declined significantly due to habitat loss, but popular games Ruffed grouse and capercaillie has benefited conservation. Most grouse species listed by IUCN as "Least Concern" or "near threatened", but prairie chicken major and minor are listed as "vulnerable" and Gunnison Ortega appears as "at risk".

Although the fur is white, the Kuvasz skin pigmentation should be dark and the nose should be black. The females usually weigh between 35-50 kg (75-90 pounds) while males weigh between 50-70 kg (100-150 lb) with moderate bone. (Refer to the breed standard for a more detailed description.) To the casual observer, the Kuvasz may seem like a great Pyrenees, Akbash, a Maremma Shepherd, Samoyed, a white Poodle and Labrador Retriever mix, Slovak and Polish Tatra Shepherd Cuvac.

As with many livestock guardian dogs, the color of the Kuvasz's coat serves a functional purpose and is an essential criterion of race. Pastors Kuvasz deliberately high to have a coat of light color so that it is easier for the shepherds to distinguish the Kuvasz from wolves who want to enjoy the company during the night. The Komondor, a cousin of the Kuvasz, has a white coat for the same reason. Traditionally, the Hungarian Kuvasz coat could be either white or cream-colored with a wavy texture. With the Hungarian standard the straight hair is not acceptable. It ranks 42 Stanley Coren, The Intelligence of Dogs. The combination of independence and intelligence make obedience training and the need for social protection. Kuvasz was bred for centuries to think and act independently, without instructions.

A adolescent Kuvasz should be able to learn basic obedience commands and consistently respond to them, but the instinctive need to investigate strangers and protect its owner may Kuvasz to act independently when off leash and ignore the calls from a frustrated manager . Finally, a potential owner should refrain from purchasing a Kuvasz if barking will be a problem at home. The Kuvasz is very special, close relationship with its owner. For the sake of governing standard, with a rake or a pin brush govern with rounded pins is recommended. Nodes to remove stubborn dirt, use a comb or a wide tooth comb curry. Frequent brushing is needed to keep the coat care.

While generally a healthy breed robust and can expect to live about 12-14 years, Kuvaszok are subject to bone problems in the developing world. As a result, the owners should ensure good nutrition for their Kuvasz puppy and avoid subjecting the puppy to rough play. Kuvasz puppy should be fed a diet rich in calories and proteins of these schemes have been associated with the development of orthopedic diseases later in life. Cooked bones should never be given to a Kuvasz or any other dog, because the cooking process makes the bones brittle and prone to chipping, which can cause serious injury to the dog's mouth and digestive tract.

Snow Goose

  

The Life of Animals | Snow Goose | The Snow Goose has two types of plumage coloration, white (snow) or gray / blue (blue), for which the general description as "snow" and "blue". White-morph birds are white except for black wing tips, but blue-morph geese have bluish-gray plumage replacing the white except on the head, neck and tail. Both snow and blue phases feet and legs red and pink rose beads with black anatomy ("sharp"), making them a black "grin patch." The layers of color are inherited. The smallest subspecies, the Lesser Snow Goose (C. c. Caerulescens), lives from central northern Canada to the Bering Strait region. The Lesser Snow Goose is 25-31 inches (63-79 cm) and weighs 4.5 to 6.0 pounds (2.0 to 2.7 kg). The largest subspecies, the Greater Snow Goose (C. c. Atlanticus), nests in northeastern Italy.

Blue-morph birds are rare among the more snow goose and among populations of eastern Asia Minor. The breeding population of Lesser Snow Goose more than 5 million birds, with an increase of over 300 percent since the mid-1970s. Creating non-geese (children or adults who are unable to nest successfully) are not included in this estimate so that the total number of geese is even greater. Lower rates of population Snow Goose were the highest population data are preserved, and evidence suggests that large breeding populations of previously untouched spread to parts of the coast of Hudson Bay. During spring migration, large numbers of snow geese fly very high along narrow corridors, more than 3000 miles from traditional wintering areas to the tundra. The Lesser Snow Goose travels through the Central Flyway, by some of the richest farmland in America.

The geese have also begun to graze in fields of wheat fall-sown winter wheat especially. Many biologists that the change of winter feeding led to the abundance of geese. Winter is the season in which the upper limit for the population continues his goose. Now is the abundance of waste agricultural grains, provided Snow Geese with excellent forage and improved survival of wintering geese. So geese to return to the North Pole each spring to breed. These geese are back in a much better condition than it was when the geese are not agricultural grains, but collected in swamps. In winter, snow geese feed on leftover grain in the fields. Snow geese and usually travel together feed more breast white geese, however, both tend to avoid travel and feed alongside Canada geese, which are often heavier birds.

Snow Geese in North America increased to the point where the tundra breeding areas in the Arctic and wintering wetlands are both becoming severely degraded, and this affects other species using the same habitat. Highlights nest predators include Arctic foxes and hunters. The nesting success was much lower when snowy owls were absent, leading scientists to believe that owls, predators because they were able to keep predators away from the nest competitors. Few predators hunt snow geese regularly outside of the breeding season, but eagles (and possibly Golden Eagles) simply confirm geese overwinter

The distribution of this species seem to agree largely with papyrus and lungfish. The Shoebill is not migratory, with small movements due to seasonal changes in food availability and human disturbance habitat. The Shoebill is large freshwater swamps and dense. Nearly all wetlands that attract species of Cyperus papyrus and reeds Phragmites and Typha silence. More rarely, the species has been seen feeding in rice fields and flooded plantations. The Shoebill is a large bird with a large typical height of 110-140 cm (43-55) and some specimens can reach up to 150 cm (59 inches). Weight went 4-7 kg (8.8 to 15 lb) in Shoebill.

The feet of the Shoebill is exceptionally large, with the middle finger reaches 16.8 to 18.5 cm (6.6 to 7.3 inches) long. The neck is relatively shorter and thicker than other long-legged wading birds such as herons and cranes.

When we are born, Shoebills smallest letter, which is mainly gray silver. The Shoebill is attracted to shallow water fish often when oxygenated surface to breathe.

Shoebills usually feeds in muddy water, being solitary birds, forage at a minimum distance of 20 m (66 feet) of each other. This species is still patiently for prey slowly and watch. While hunting, Shoebill steps very slowly and often remains. Unlike some other wading birds, this species hunts conducted entirely with vision and do not know s' participate in the search for reality. Often, water and vegetation is removed during the strike and left edges of the jaw. Shoebills are largely piscivorous predators, but are assured of an impressive array of wetland vertebrates. Other prey consumed by this species, including frogs, water snakes, crocodiles and Nile monitor for children. There were also reports Shoebills simple Lechwe calf feed, even if confirmation is required. Because of its sharp beak, making a curve too high and wide, the Shoebill can hunt prey much larger, often target larger prey than other waders.

Bangweulu Swamps in Zambia, the main prey fed to young parents was Clarias mossambicus (catfish) and water snakes. In Uganda, catfish and lungfish mainly feed the young. was the solitary nature of Shoebills extending their breeding habits. Nests usually occur within 3 nests per square kilometer, unlike herons, cormorants, pelicans and storks nest in colonies. The couple farm Shoebills vigorously defend a territory, from February to April km2 (0.77 to 1.5 square miles) by his peers. North and south of the distribution of the species, nesting begins immediately after the rainy season. Birds build their nests on the floating platform, after crossing an area of about 3 m (9.8 ft) in diameter. The nest big flatbed is often partially submerged in water up to 3 meters (9.8 feet) deep. The hierarchy and the bridge are of aquatic vegetation. The eggs measure 80-90 mm (3.1 to 3.5 inches) in height from 56 to 61 mm (2.2 to 2.4 inches) and weighs about 164 g (5.8 oz).
