The bush dog is a canine found in Central and South America. In spite of its extensive range, it is very rare in most areas except in Suriname, Guyana and Peru; it was first identified by Peter Wilhelm Lund from fossils in Brazilian caves and was believed to be extinct but it wasn't.Bush dogs hunt large rodents in groups, such as paca and agouti. Solitary hunters take on smaller rodents, including snakes, lizards and birds. Larger groups of bush dogs also occasionally eat larger prey, like capybaras, which is much larger than a lone bush dog.

Leaf tailed gecko are nocturnal animals, meaning that they rest in the day and are active during the night. During most days, you can find the geckos basking in the sun until they are ready to hunt for their prey. Being carnivorous reptiles, the gecko is an active hunter at night.The satanic leaf-tailed gecko is found only in the mountainous rain forests in the southern two-thirds of eastern Madagascar, a large island nation just off the southeast coast of Africa. It is found at the base of trees disguising itself as leaf litter and up to about 6 feet up the trunk of a tree. These geckos are amazing climbers because of their special toe. Each toe has thousands of hair, which are so tiny that you need a powerful microscope to see them.

The underbelly is yellow with a blackish pattern, especially under the chin. Its size can range from 7.5 to 9 cm (3.0 to 3.5 in) in snout-vent length. It may grow to a maximum size of 8 in (20 cm) .Armadillo girdled lizards are diurnal and during the night they find their shelter in rock cracks and crevices. They live in social groups of up to 30 to 60 individuals of all ages, but usually fewer. Males are territorial, protecting territory and mating with the females living there.

The saiga antelope, or saiga, is a critically endangered antelope which during antiquity inhabited a vast area of the Eurasian steppe spanning the foothills of the Carpathian Mountains in the northwest and Caucasus in the southwest into Mongolia in the northeast and Dzungaria in the southeast.These antelope are herbivores. They graze daily on hundreds of different ground-dwelling plants in the Central Asian steppes. They prefer grasses, lichens, sagebrush, and summer cypress. Many of the plants in the saiga's diet are poisonous to other animals.The most notable features of the Saiga antelopes are its inflatable nose, so people in China also name it as 'Gaobi Antelope' ('Gaobi' in Chinese means inflatable and high). Straight horns are the other inimitable features of the saiga. Only males have the horns with average length of 20-40cm.In 2015 tragedy struck Kazakhstan's saiga antelopes. A usually benign bacteria, made deadly by climatic changes, killed thousands of the animals.

The Hainan black-crested gibbon or Hainan gibbon, is a Critically Endangered species of gibbon found only on Hainan Island, China. It was formerly considered a subspecies of the eastern black crested gibbon from Hòa Bình and Cao Bằng provinces of Vietnam and Jingxi County in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, China.The Hainan gibbon is one of the most endangered primate species in the world, due primarily to past habitat loss and poaching. About 23-25 individuals remain.The lifespan of a gibbon is roughly 30 - 35 years in the wild or 40 – 50 years in captivity. The oldest known living gibbon was a 60 year-old male Müller's gibbon named Nippy, who was housed in the Wellington Zoo in New Zealand. He passed away in 2008.All gibbon species are highly territorial, proclaiming their territory boundaries with exceptionally loud vocal displays. These vocalizations are often described as 'song', and are mostly heard early in the morning as pairs sing coordinated duets.

The Philippine eagle, also known as the monkey-eating eagle or great Philippine eagle, is a critically endangered species of eagle of the family Accipitridae which is endemic to forests in the Philippines.There are only an estimated 400 nesting pairs of Philippine eagles left in the wild, so the sighting of new eagle families is always a milestone to celebrate for the Philippine Eagle.The Philippine Eagle is symbolic of the Filipino's bravery and strength. The lord of the skies, the Philippine Eagle is the world's largest eagle.Philippine Eagles do eat monkeys, but they also prey on a whole host of animals, both large and small. They have been known to hunt bats, civets, flying squirrels, and macaques. They also eat birds, including other birds of prey, snakes and lizards.Philippine eagles are generally solitary and spend time singly on in breeding pairs. They are active during the day and at night they rest. Philippine eagles primarily use two hunting techniques. One is still-hunting, in which they watch for prey activity while sitting almost motionlessly on a branch near the canopy.

The Dumbo octopus is a deep-sea animal.The Dumbo octopus is an unusual, beautiful animal rarely seen alive outside its natural habitat. Many other octopus species can thrive as fascinating interactive pets in marine aquaria if their particular needs are met.Dumbo octopuses , are not yet known to be under any threats and are not dangerous to humans.Dumbo Octopuses have 9 brains because, in addition to the central brain, each of 8 arms has a mini-brain that allows it to act independently. Octopuses have blue blood because they have adapted to cold, low oxygen water by using hemocyanin, a copper rich protein.There are 15 species of dumbo octopuses in the world. They are rare but can be found all over the world's ocean.

The star-nosed mole is a small mole found in moist, low areas in the northern parts of North America. It is the only member of the tribe having a touch organ with more than 25,000 minute sensory receptors, known as Eimer's organs, with which this hamster-sized mole feels its way around.Star-nosed moles are not dangerous to humans, but they can cause damage to some landscapes or gardens.Star-nosed moles are not uncommon, just uncommonly seen.The eyes of the star-nosed don't work very well. In fact, like most moles, it's practically blind. But since it lives in near-complete darkness, burrowing beneath moist soil near ponds and streams in wetlands across southeastern Canada and the eastern United States, this creature doesn't need sharp vision.

The gharial, also known as gavial or fish-eating crocodile, is a crocodilian in the family Gavialidae and among the longest of all living crocodilians. Mature females are 2.6–4.5 m long, and males 3–6 m.The gharial normally attains a length of about 12 to 15 feet (3.7 to 4.6 meters). It does not attack humans but apparently does feed on corpses set afloat in funeral ceremonies on the Ganges River.Gharials are one of the most critically threatened crocodilians. Their primary threats include habitat loss due to human encroachment, unsustainable fishing practices and hunting. The species came alarmingly close to extinction in the 1970s.

Pink fairy armadillos are found less commonly than they were a few decades ago, and the field sightings have been rare and incidental. Individuals that have been caught in the wild had a tendency to die during or a couple days after they were transported from their natural habitat to captive facilities.While pink fairy armadillos are not dangerous to humans, humans are extremely dangerous to them. Being excessively sensitive to changes in their environment, these animals will only survive a few days out of their natural habitat. This solitary, desert-adapted animal is endemic to central Argentina and can be found inhabiting sandy plains, dunes, and scrubby grasslands
