Rikki Tikki Tavi joined us in Nottage Primary School 🏫 today. The marsh mongoose is primarily a solitary species. It is an excellent swimmer and can dive for up to 15 seconds, using its feet to paddle. On land, it usually trots slowly, but can also move fast. Radio-collared marsh mongooses in KwaZulu-Natal were active from shortly after sunset until after midnight showing a crepuscular activity pattern. A radio-collared male marsh mongoose in Dzanga-Sangha Special Reserve was most active during early mornings and late evenings, but rested by day in burrows situated in dry areas above water and mud in a dense cover of high grasses and climbing plants. #animals #nature #animal #wildlife #love #pets #cute #pet #photography #dog #naturephotography #dogs #wildlifephotography #animallovers #cats #cat #petsofinstagram #animalsofinstagram #instagram #dogsofinstagram #photooftheday #art #birds #animalphotography #instagood #catsofinstagram #petstagram #puppy #zoo #bird
Bulldozer has been with us visiting some lovely Reception children in Bishopston Primary in the Gower. The six-banded armadillo (Euphractus sexcinctus), also known as the yellow armadillo, is an armadillo found in South America. The sole extant member of its genus, it was first described by Swedish zoologist Carl Linnaeus in 1758. The six-banded armadillo is typically between 40 and 50 centimeters (16 and 20 in) in head-and-body length, and weighs 3.2 to 6.5 kilograms (7.1 to 14.3 lb). The carapace (hard shell on the back) is pale yellow to reddish brown, marked by scales of equal length, and scantily covered by buff to white bristle-like hairs. The forefeet have five distinct toes, each with moderately developed claws. #wildlife #nature #wildlifephotography #naturephotography #photography #birds #animals #bird #naturelovers #animal #wild #birdphotography #photooftheday #travel #birdsofinstagram #love #canon #birdwatching #conservation #nikon #art #animalphotography #outdoors #adventure #africa #safari #perfection #birding #instagood #natgeo

Yes, a binturong, also called a bearcat, smells like popcorn because of a chemical compound in their urine called 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline (2-AP), which is the same chemical that gives popcorn its distinctive scent; essentially, their urine smells like buttered popcorn. popcorn-like smell:Chemical reason: The chemical 2-AP is present in the urine of binturongs, which is why they smell like popcorn. Scent gland: Binturongs have a scent gland located near their tail which helps them mark their territory with this popcorn-like odor. Interesting fact: This unique smell is often described as "buttered popcorn” #wildlife #nature #wildlifephotography #naturephotography #photography #birds #animals #bird #naturelovers #animal #wild #birdphotography #photooftheday #travel #birdsofinstagram #love #canon #birdwatching #conservation #nikon #art #animalphotography #outdoors #adventure #africa #safari #perfection #birding #instagood #natgeo
