These young reindeer in Lapland were captured both during and after a storm.
They curled up to conserve energy against the harsh winds, and once the weather calmed, they resumed their search for food.
Reindeer dig through the snow to find lichen, a crucial winter food source. Depending on the region and snow conditions, they also graze on mosses, grasses, shrubs, and other available vegetation.

Yaks are sturdy, long-haired bovines adapted to some of the harshest environments on Earth. They are native to the high-altitude regions of the Himalayas, Tibetan Plateau, and surrounding mountain ranges. Yaks thrive in extreme cold, often enduring temperatures as low as -40°C (-40°F). Their thick woolly coats, large lungs, and strong legs help them survive in these rugged, snowy terrains with thin air and scarce vegetation.
Wild yaks are more solitary and roam remote areas, while domesticated yaks provide milk, meat, wool, and transport for local communities living in these unforgiving landscapes.

The Ishasha region of Uganda’s Queen Elizabeth National Park is known for its tree-climbing lions, and seeing two large males resting together on the branches is an impressive sight.
This behavior has also been observed in certain prides across Africa. Lions are not expert tree climbers like leopards, but climbing provides practical benefits, such as escaping the heat, avoiding biting insects, and gaining better vantage points.

The impressive jabiru stork.
With a wingspan of up to 2.8 meters (9.2 feet), the jabiru is one of the largest flying birds in the Americas, making it impossible to miss as it soars above wetlands. Found primarily in Central and South America, this stork is a master fisher, using its massive, upturned bill to catch fish, frogs, and even small reptiles.
What makes the jabiru stand out even more is its striking appearance - snowy white feathers contrasted with a black head and a bright red inflatable throat pouch, which it uses for vocalizations. The name “jabiru” comes from the Tupi-Guarani language, meaning “swollen neck,” a nod to this unique feature.
While typically solitary or in pairs, they can be spotted in large groups when food is abundant, creating a fascinating scene of synchronized foraging.

They drill holes for a variety of reasons, sometimes in search of food, to attract a mate, or even for nesting purposes. The woodpecker uses its sharp, chisel-shaped beak and its strong skull to drill these holes with ease. 🐦
