Facts of lion
Lion is the king of forest, Lion populations are untenable outside designated reserves and national parks. Within Africa, the West African lion population is particularly endangered. Although the cause of the decline is not fully understood, habitat loss and conflicts with humans are currently the greatest causes of concern.
Indochinese Tiger
The Indochinese tiger is a tiger subspecies dispersed throughout the Indochina region of Southeastern Asia. The Indochinese tiger is also referred to as "Corbett's tiger." Threatened Species categorized the Indochinese tiger as Endangered.
Malayan Tigers
The Malayan tiger is a tiger subspecies that inhabits the southern and central parts of the Malay tiger and has been classified as endangered by IUCN in 2008. Malayan tigers appear to be smaller than Indian ones. Until 2004, when research findings identified it as a different endemic sub-specie, it was previously categorised together with the Indochina tiger.
Ostrich
The feathers of Ostrich adult males are mostly black, with white primaries and a white tail. However, the Ostrich tail of one subspecies is buff. The skin of the female's neck and thighs is pinkish gray, while the male's is blue-gray, gray or pink dependent on subspecies. Females and young males Ostrichs are greyish-brown and white. The head and neck of both male and female ostriches is nearly bare, with a thin layer of down.
Bengal Tiger
The Bengal tiger is the most numerous tiger subspecies. Its populations have been estimated at 1,706–1,909 in India, 440 in Bangladesh, 163–253 in Nepal and 67–81 in Bhutan. The total population is estimated at fewer than 2,500 individuals with a decreasing trend, and none of the Tiger Conservation Landscapes within the Bengal tiger's range is large enough to support an effective population size of 250 adult individuals. Since 2010, it has been classified as an endangered species by the IUCN.
Bats
Bats are mammals of the order Chiroptera whose forelimbs form webbed wings, making them the only mammals naturally capable of true and sustained flight. By contrast, other mammals said to fly, such as flying squirrels, gliding possums, and colugos, can only glide for short distances. Bats do not flap their entire forelimbs, as birds do, but instead flap their spread-out digits, which are very long and covered with a thin membrane or patagium.
African Civet
The African civet is the largest representative of the African Viverridae. It is the sole member of its genus. African civets can be found from coast to coast across sub-Saharan Africa. They are primarily nocturnal and spend the day sleeping in dense vegetation. During the night, when they are the most active, they can be found in a wide variety of habitat consisting of thick forest to open country. The African civet is a solitary mammal that is easily recognizable by its unique coloration; the black and white stripes and blotches covering the coarse pelage of the animal are extremely variable and allow it to be cryptic.The black bands surrounding the African civet’s eyes closely resemble those of the raccoon. Other distinguishing features of the African civet are its disproportionately large hindquarters and its erectile dorsal crest.
Adelie Penguin
The Adélie Penguin (Pygoscelis adeliae) is a species of penguin common along the entire Antarctic coast, which is their only residence. They are among the most southerly distributed of all seabirds, as are the Emperor Penguin, the South Polar Skua, the Wilson's Storm Petrel, the Snow Petrel, and the Antarctic Petrel. In 1840, French explorer Jules Dumont d'Urville named them for his wife, Adélie.
