Wolves
Grey wolves were once widespread across North America but were hunted extensively and nearly driven to extinction. Conservation efforts have allowed their populations to recover in some areas of their former range. Grey wolves live in packs, communicate through howling and scent marking, and play a vital role in ecosystems by preying on large hoofed animals. Red wolves are smaller than grey wolves and live in forests, swamps, and coastal prairies, hunting small mammals and occasionally deer. Overhunting caused red wolves to be declared extinct in the wild by 1987, though captive breeding programs have helped reintroduce them to protected areas.
Party slide show
The cottonmouth is a semi-aquatic pit viper found near water and fields that is primarily active at night but basks during the day, eating fish, frogs, birds and small mammals. The rough green snake is a skilled climber often found in bushes and trees that hunts during the day and sleeps at night, escaping predators by swimming. The eastern diamondback rattlesnake is the largest venomous snake in North America, hunting at night and following bitten prey until it dies.
Mountain gorillas
Mountain gorillas are one of the most endangered animals, with only around 600 remaining. They live in forests in East Central Africa but their habitat is being destroyed by deforestation. Hunters are also poaching the gorillas for zoos or to sell their body parts, further threatening the species. Conservation groups are working to protect the gorillas by raising awareness and funding protection programs, but if more is not done the mountain gorilla could become extinct.
Endangered species
This document summarizes information about several endangered species, including the Siberian tiger, great white shark, golden eagle, African black rhino, komodo dragon, and African elephant.

Important facts about Animal 1
Animals are an amazing creature with fantastic colour, life-habit and food habits. If you study animal behaviour, you will be amazed because of some interesting facts. Let’s have a look at some interesting facts:
Coral Snakes and Scarlet King Snakes
The document compares the coral snake and scarlet kingsnake. It notes that coral snakes have red, yellow/white, and black bands and are venomous. Scarlet kingsnakes have a similar tri-color banding pattern but are non-venomous. The rhyme "red on yellow, kill a fellow; red on black, friend of jack" can help distinguish the two. Both snakes are found in the southeastern United States, though coral snakes range more widely.
What is a hinny + mule
A hinny is the offspring of a male horse and a female donkey. It has the body of a donkey and the extremities of a horse, and is generally smaller than a mule. Like mules, hinnies have 63 chromosomes which makes breeding difficult. Male hinnies and mules are anatomically normal but difficult to handle and should be castrated for temperament and safety reasons. Hinnies and mules can have a wide variety of coat colors depending on their parents.
Interesting facts
This document contains interesting facts about several different animal species:
- Gorillas will soak the fur on their hands to drink water and rhinos wallow in mud to protect their skin from sunburn.
- You can tell male and female gorillas apart by the male's dome-shaped skull and larger size. Female rhinos produce 20-25 liters of milk per day after giving birth.
- Bengal tigers can kill the equivalent of 30 buffaloes per year and eat 31kg of meat in a night, while Siberian tigers are the largest cats weighing 250-280kg. Humpback whales need over a ton of food daily and have been known to stay underwater for 30 minutes.

Giraffe Taylor H Per 6
Giraffes live in the savannas of Africa and eat leaves from tall acacia trees. Males can grow up to 19 feet tall and weigh up to 3,000 pounds, while females reach 16 feet and 2,600 pounds. They have a golden tan coat with reddish brown spots and live for about 25 years in the wild. Giraffes are threatened by hunting for their meat and coat, as well as habitat loss and fragmentation. Their populations have declined over the last century due to these threats.
Gay gene
The liger is a hybrid offspring of a male lion and a female tiger. It is the largest feline known to exist. Ligers enjoy swimming like tigers and are social like lions. They only exist in captivity as the parental species habitats do not overlap in the wild. Notably, ligers typically grow larger than either parent species. The largest liger on record is Hercules, who weighs over 900 pounds. Ligers can live over 20 years, though their fertility follows Haldane's rule where hybrids with two different sex chromosomes (like lions and tigers) are often sterile if male.
Camel presentation
Camels are well-adapted to travel and carry loads across hot deserts. They can go long periods without food or water due to their humps, which store fat, and ability to tolerate high body temperatures. There are two main types - the Arabian camel with one hump and the Bactrian camel with two humps. Camels have played an important role in desert cultures by providing transportation, food, clothing, shelter and more.

Walking With Elephants
Walking With Elephants is a documentary film about the declining elephant populations in Africa and the obstacles they face. It will follow herds of elephants across 7 African countries to show the barriers to their continued survival, including habitat loss, poaching, and being confined to ever-shrinking reserves. The film aims to convey the intelligence and social structures of elephants, the importance of allowing their long migrations to continue, and what needs to change for elephants to avoid extinction. It will be informed by experts from Singita, an organization that manages over 1 million acres of protected land housing elephant herds.
Walking with the Elephants
Walking with Elephants is about the last great herds of elephants in Africa.
With a population of barely 350,000 Savanah elephants left, the biggest of the planet’s land animals face extinction within our lifetime. Half of these elephants during the dry season are densely populated in northern Botswana as they are protected by the government there. However, across the border into Namibia, Angola, Zambia and Zimbabwe – where many of the elephants return in the wet season, their future is fraught. In Kenya and Tanzania and South Africa, nearly all of the surviving elephants are enclosed in game reserves and no longer roam the wilderness that once saw them travel up to one hundred miles a day.
Walking with Elephants is first and foremost about elephants. While these fast disappearing magnificent and intelligent beasts live out their lives, they are being squeezed by humans into ever smaller patterns of behavior. While poaching is highlighted as a major factor in the decline in elephant numbers, it is in fact farming, and in particular cattle farming, that is robbing elephants of the habitat they foraged for themselves and the animals that depended on the grasslands they created.

This document discusses several animals that live in or near water. It describes the hippopotamus, which can weigh up to 3 tons and ranks among the most dangerous animals in Africa. It also mentions the European otter, Eurasian beaver, northern fur seal, and elephant seal. Elephant seals were nearly hunted to extinction by the late 19th century but have since recovered their populations.
The great african elephant
The African elephant is divided into two species, the bush elephant and forest elephant. It is one of the largest land mammals known for its large ears, trunk, and tusks. Female elephants live in herds overseen by the oldest female, and help care for the young. The elephant's large ears and ability to spray water helps them cool off in the African heat. Their trunk allows them to smell, breathe, and grab food and water. Tusks are used for digging, feeding, and fighting by males, but have led to poaching for their ivory value.

Frustrated by their treatment and lack of sleep due to cats howling at night, the apprentices lured the cats into a trap and killed them in a violent way as revenge against their masters. The essay uses this story to examine the cultural meanings and social tensions between the apprentices and their masters in 18th century French society.

Animals domestication3
Dogs were the first domesticated animal, descending from wolves. Cattle such as cows and oxen were domesticated in Mesopotamia around 5,000 BC for milk, meat, and labor. Horses, originally domesticated for transportation and warfare, came in breeds like draft horses for farm work and thoroughbreds for racing. Other domesticated animals discussed include turkeys, pigs, sheep, goats, and llamas.
Lion
Lions are one of the largest cats, found historically across Africa and Eurasia but now primarily in sub-Saharan Africa and India. They have seen a major population decline of 30-50% over the last few decades due to habitat loss and conflicts with humans. Males live 10-14 years in the wild due to fighting with other males, while females hunt in prides and lions are well known for their distinctive manes and cultural depictions dating back 17,000 years.
10 Most Dangerous Animals in the World
Not all animals are dangerous, but there are few animals that can be quite lethal when they attack. If you take elephant, it’s generally a non aggressive animal, but when it gets fierce, it can be quite catastrophic.
Lions
Lions live in social groups called prides that are made up of related females and offspring along with a few adult males. There are three main types of lions: African lions, Western snow lions of Greenland, and Eastern snow lions. Lions were once found across Africa, Eurasia, and even North and South America, but their populations have declined significantly in recent decades due to habitat loss and conflicts with humans.

The document includes maps showing the ranges of each species and photographs of elephants. It also discusses woolly mammoths and mentions that elephants were historically kept in captivity but can now be seen in zoos. The glossary defines relevant terms and the author is identified as a third grade student completing a school project.
Endangered rhino by Jovana
Rhino populations have drastically declined over the past century from 500,000 to just 29,000 today due to poaching and habitat loss. The Javan and Sumatran rhino species in Asia are critically endangered with fewer than 100 Sumatran rhinos remaining in the wild. While the Southern white rhino population has increased to over 20,000, only five Northern white rhinos remain. Black rhinos are also critically endangered with just over 5,000 in the wild. Poaching for rhino horn, which is valued in Asian medicine, is the most pressing threat along with habitat loss and political conflicts. Conservation efforts are ongoing but rhino populations remain in danger.
Big Five Game
The big five GAME refers to the five most dangerous animals to hunt in Africa: the lion, elephant, buffalo, leopard, and rhinoceros. These animals are often hunted in South Africa's Kruger National Park, as shown in photographs. While some of the big five species are endangered or vulnerable, hunting the white rhinoceros instead of the black helps conservation efforts by supporting the survival of species not currently threatened.
Lions, Giraffes and their Ecological Niches
Lions and giraffes live in the savannas of Sub-Saharan Africa. Lions live in prides of up to 40 individuals and hunt large prey using their night vision and ability to sneak through long grasses. Their main threats are loss of habitat and hunting by humans. Giraffes live in herds and browse on acacia leaves, using their long tongues. They can run quickly but have few predators besides lions and humans. Both species are at risk of extinction due to poaching and loss of habitat.
Fun facts about animals~
Antelopes communicate through various noises and their horns can grow up to 5 feet long. Llamas are intelligent and can be trained, and are known to spit when threatened. Hippopotamuses are more closely related to whales and dolphins than other land mammals, can bite boats in half, use their yawn to threaten, and have killed more people in Africa than any other wild animal. Cheetahs were hunted by humans as early as 3000 BC and can reach speeds over 60 mph. Camels store fat in their hump, have teeth adapted for dry climates, and can survive for days without food or water.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

South african tourism, big five
- 1. South African Tourism Tourism attraction
- 2. Best of South Africa
- 3. Origin of the name Big Five • How did these five animals – the lion, elephant, buffalo, rhinoceros and leopard – come to be called the Big Five? • It was originally a hunting term used by the so-called ‘great white hunters’ in the hunting heyday of the 19th and early 20th centuries, when professional hunters bagged as many trophies as possible in as short a time as possible.
- 4. Contiue…Origin of the name Big Five • Considered a rite of passage for seasoned travelers, everybody from American presidents to European royalty and heads of state came to Africa to shoot a large, dangerous animal. • The Big Five quickly became known as the most dangerous animals to hunt on foot, and the name stuck – although now ‘shooting’ is done through a camera lens
- 5. THE LION King of the beasts
- 6. ROAR!!!!! • The lion is arguably the most sought-after of the Big Five because it is synonymous with an African safari. Charismatic, powerful and beautiful, everybody wants to see the appropriately named 'King of the Beasts'.
- 8. LARGE • Perhaps it’s the African elephant that should be called ‘King of the Beasts’ – it is the world’s largest and heaviest land animal. Its ears alone measure up to 2m x 1.2m (roughly the size of the surface area of a double bed) and can weigh up to 20kg (44lb) each, while it can grow to a height of more than 3m.
- 9. THE BAFFALO CLASH OF HORNS
- 10. COLD STARE • Don’t be fooled by the docile appearance of the Cape buffalo (also known as the African buffalo). This mean, moody and magnificent animal is possibly the most dangerous of the Big Five, especially if you are on foot.
- 12. SECOND LARGEST MAMMAL • Your first impression will be of its bulk and size. And then you may wonder how such a prehistoric-looking animal has existed for so many millions of years. Although unfortunately, the brutality and intensity of present-day poaching is a serious threat to the continuing survival of the species.
- 13. THE LEOPARD A MASTER STALKER
- 14. SEXY AND DRAMATIC • The one animal everybody wants to see – beautiful, charismatic, sexy and dramatic – and also the most elusive. The leopard is a solitary animal (unless mating, or a mother with cubs) and will, whether male or female, fiercely defend its own hunting territory from other leopards.
