Bison thrive in the extreme cold, even on a -38°F (-39°C) morning like the ones shown in the footage. With their thick skin and dense fur, they are perfectly adapted to survive temperatures as low as -50°F (-46°C).
During snowstorms, they use their heads to clear snow and uncover grass to eat. This footage was filmed in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, USA.

Wombats have a backward-facing pouch.
The advantage is that when digging, the wombat does not gather soil in its pouch over its young.
Bonus: the baby can easily eat and stay warm at the same time.

Spotted deer, also known as chital, and sambar deer are two notable species found in Kerala, India. Both use distinct calls to alert others to predators like tigers and leopards nearby.
Chital are smaller, living in herds and thriving in grasslands and forests, while sambar deer are larger and typically solitary or in small groups, preferring dense forests.

Though jaguars are primarily ground hunters, their impressive tree-climbing skills allow them to observe potential prey like capybaras or caimans from strategic vantage points, sometimes launching powerful jumps for a surprise attack.
In this video, the jaguar targeted a hidden caiman among hyacinth plants, highlighting their adaptability. Further contributing to their prowess, jaguars are excellent swimmers, sometimes ambushing aquatic prey from land or even pursuing them in the water. With powerful jaws delivering a fatal bite, often targeting the skull or neck.

In an encounter between a Banded Sea Snake and a Giant Moray, the sea snake strategically deploys its potent venom – a powerful cocktail of neurotoxins. This venom acts swiftly, targeting the nervous system and causing paralysis, ultimately bringing an end to the battle.
The Banded Sea Snake may have bitten in response to sensing a threat, triggering a defensive response.

A clownfish and its anemone share a bond as remarkable as the ocean itself. 🐠🪸 The anemone provides the clownfish with a safe haven, its stinging tentacles warding off predators. In return, the clownfish offers protection, cleans the anemone, and keeps it healthy by luring in food. Together, they thrive in perfect harmony, a true testament to the magic of mutualism beneath the waves.
