The white spots in the eyes are a prominent basis for identifying Papua penguins, which are taking part in Edinburgh Zoo's famous daily penguin parade, and a lone one is trying to clumsily jump off a step with its short legs. In the penguin family, the Papua penguin is the third largest in size after the emperor penguin and the king penguin. An interesting fact is that many birds appear to have short legs and bend their knees backwards because their thighs are actually hidden in the body, and all we see is their slender feet and part of the calves, and the shell net has given a very intuitive explanation, poking //www.guokr.com/question/541583/. In addition, there is an interesting little common sense, penguins are not all distributed in the icy Antarctic, the famous Galapagos penguins are distributed near the equator in the northern hemisphere, although their chosen habitat is also the lower temperature part of the region, but as a QQ, courage is still very commendable.

A pen-tailed badger lying on its side resting. True to its name, the badger has a thicker tail than the slender-tailed badger and is covered with long hairs. If you look closely, its pupils that are basking in the sun when taking pictures also become narrow rectangles to control the amount of light, which makes people think of the rectangular pupils of goats and the cube-like poop of wombats (interested students can search for it). Some friends who know a little about animals may confuse its appearance with the weasel, but the weasel is actually a ferret, which is far from this cargo. By the way, we usually write brush words with a kind of pen is "wolf", using the weasel hair. So if there are calligraphy lovers at home, quickly smell whether there is a sharp and smelly brush, if there is a congratulations, you should have bought the genuine product, but the seller's degree of hygiene is debatable.

The toucan is just that, I don't know which scientist created this "whipping toucan" of this product. Toucan is also called the partridge, do not know the children's shoes read the left side of the right, should be from the English name Touka transliteration, and the source of the English name is said to be the sound and this pronunciation is similar, this nomenclature can not help but think of no wonder some people call the dog Wang Guan cat meow. Its large mouth structure determines that eating the fruit fragments as shown in the picture can only be picked up and then swallowed by the neck, which is cute and cute, and it is estimated that the breeders have long hated the itchy teeth every day in order to cut the vegetables and fruits so broken, they are almost mouth-to-mouth feeding.

The famous mobile game "Angry Birds" has a swivel function is its cousin the green toucan. In addition, a small partner who wants to watch this cute food video asked me a private message.

The name of the Burke parrot is derived from richard Bourke, the governor of new South Wales, Australia, and is also a bird unique to Australia. Burke's parrots are monogamous, and the kissing action in the photo was captured after a long time of patience, but a more reasonable explanation should be the feeding behavior that is common in birds. The pink feathers of the male bird on the right are very pleasing, this bird is usually not afraid of people, and likes to fly at low altitudes, so the known predators include foxes who are not good at climbing trees, which is really a model of muffled death.

This grazing long-eyebrow man called the Red Monkey, running at a speed of up to 50 km / h, long hands and feet it ran with full force, even the Jamaican trapeze artist Bolt could only look at its back. It seems that the creatures from Africa are indeed hanging against the sky. Because it can run well, it must maintain sufficient time and space in the zoo, otherwise there will be violence based on monkey groups. Interestingly, despite the socialization, there is no obvious hierarchical differentiation and class distinction between the populations of this monkey, and when the conflict between the monkey groups occurs, it is often the mother monkeys and young monkeys who are more inclined to charge the battle, and the male monkeys will not take the lead. Based on this perspective, considering the general territorial awareness and aggressiveness of male creatures, it is not an exaggeration to call the red monkey a female cannon monkey.
The first episode ends here, warmly welcome to patiently see the small partners here criticism and correction.
