| The White Lion |
| 2010-05-16 20:44:00 |
I never knew that there was such a thing as whit lions until I saw this video. They do exist. Naturally? I have no clue. Are they a result of controlled breeding or do they exist naturally in the wild without man's influence? There is a program however, known as the WLT (White Lions Trust) that is involved in the process of reintroducing the white lions into the wild. Can they survive without the typical camouflage of other lions?

| Anaconda Eats A Capybara |
| 2010-01-04 22:54:00 |
I can't believe how fast an Anaconda can attack. Sure Hollywood exaggerates, seeing the real things still scares me out of my pants. The fact that these creatures mostly live in water gives them the advantage in a hunter's point of view.

| Baby Black Panthers! |
| 2009-11-11 00:22:00 |
Small, yet ferocious! These cats actually look pretty friendly... while they're still young that is. You should check out the wiki link below... it is interesting to know that the name "black panther" is simply a way to call out a "large black cat". They are classified differently in many parts of the world... such as black leopards, black jaguars and black cougars.

| The Fearless Honey Badgers |
| 2009-10-11 21:45:00 |
I would've never imagined that the Honey Badger is a fearless creature. After watching this video, i learned that they are fearless of cobra snakes, bee stings and other predators. No doubt, I will never look at Honey Badgers the same way as I used to.Wiki Link: Honey Badger

| Eagle Vs. Eagle |
| 2009-08-19 00:18:00 |
The eagles are an amazing animal and a powerful at that. They are great hunters and seem territorial. In fact, they will also battle against their own kind to secure what is theirs! Eagles can range in size anywhere between 16 inches to 39 inches depending on species. One of the larger ones is the Philippine Eagle, which is also nicknamed the "Monkey-eating Eagle" which is to be taken literally - they do eat monkeys ocassionally!Wiki Link: Eagle

| Whale Shark |
| 2009-07-26 01:16:00 |
This is amazing, such a huge creature yet looks so peaceful and calm. To swim next to one is an experience in itself. To think that the whale shark eats plankton and fish eggs by opening its mouth. A very beautiful video indeed.Wiki Link: Whale Shark

| Anglerfish - Cutthroat Eel - Japanese Spider Crab - Tailspot Lantern Sharks - Chimaera |
| 2009-06-27 01:30:00 |
Anglerfish are the members of the order Lophiiformes. They are bony fish named for their characteristic mode of predation, wherein a fleshy growth from the fish's head (the esca or illicium) acts as a lure; this is considered analogous to angling. Some anglerfish are pelagic (live in the open water), others are benthic (bottom-dwelling). Some live in the deep sea (e.g. Ceratiidae) and others on the continental shelf (e.g. the frogfishes Antennariidae and the monkfish/goosefish Lophiidae). They occur worldwide. Pelagic forms are most laterally (sideways) compressed whereas the benthic forms are often extremely dorsoventrally compressed (depressed) often with large upward pointing mouths. Some species of anglerfish have even developed pectoral fins which act like legs, allowing them to walk ...

| Giant Jellyfish |
| 2009-06-14 18:05:00 |
Jellyfish do not have specialized digestive, osmoregulatory, central nervous, respiratory, or circulatory systems. They digest using the gastrodermal lining of the gastrovascular cavity, where nutrients are absorbed. They do not need a respiratory system since their skin is thin enough that the body is oxygenated by diffusion. They have limited control over movement, but can use their hydrostatic skeleton to accomplish movement through contraction-pulsations of the bell-like body; some species actively swim most of the time, while others are passive much of the time. Jellyfish are composed of more than 90% water; most of their umbrella mass is a gelatinous material - the jelly - called mesoglea which is surrounded by two layers of epithelial cells which form the umbrella (top surface) and ...

| Dolphin Parenting |
| 2009-02-28 02:06:00 |
Dolphins are marine mammals that are closely related to whales and porpoises. There are almost forty species of dolphin in seventeen genera. They vary in size from 1.2 m (4 ft) and 40 kg (90 lb) (Maui's Dolphin), up to 9.5 m (30 ft) and 10 tonnes (9.8 LT; 11 ST) (the Orca or Killer Whale). They are found worldwide, mostly in the shallower seas of the continental shelves, and are carnivores, mostly eating fish and squid. The family Delphinidae is the largest in the Cetacea, and relatively recent: dolphins evolved about ten million years ago, during the Miocene. Dolphins are considered to be amongst the most intelligent of animals and their often friendly appearance and seemingly playful attitude have made them popular in human culture.Wiki Link: Dolphin

| Rhinoceros |
| 2008-08-29 02:09:00 |
Rhinoceros, often colloquially abbreviated rhino, is the common name used to group five extant species of odd-toed ungulates in the family Rhinocerotidae. Two of these species are native to Africa and three to southern Asia. Three of the five species—the (Javan, Sumatran and Black Rhinoceros)—are critically endangered. The Indian is endangered, with fewer than 2700 individuals remaining in the wild. The White is registered as Vulnerable, with roughly 14,500 remaining in the wild. The rhinoceros family is characterised by large size (one of the largest remaining megafauna alive today) with all of the species capable of reaching one ton or more in weight; herbivorous diet; and a thick protective skin, 1.5–5 cm thick, formed from layers of collagen positioned in a lattice structure; rel...
