Funny animals, koalas, seem very cute to many, and for good reason - they get used to people quite easily, and their peaceful behavior only adds to their fans.

These animals lead a rather passive lifestyle, and therefore they are now endangered in some places, although in general they are not threatened with extinction.

They are unable to resist enemies and become easy prey for predators.

Lion cubs have a range of vocalizations that serve different purposes as they grow.

They first make soft meowing sounds to communicate with their mother, letting her know they are hungry, lost, or in need of attention. As they grow older, their calls become more varied, including grunts and soft growls, as they learn to imitate adults.

These early attempts at roaring help them strengthen their vocal cords and eventually develop the deep, sonorous roar for which lions are famous.

Pangolins feed on termites and ants, thereby maintaining balance and providing control over forest insects. In addition, pangolins dig burrows, which also provide many benefits to the environment. While digging holes, pangolins saturate the soil with oxygen and also turn over the forest substrate, which promotes the growth of new vegetation. Also, do not forget that the holes dug by pangolins are used by other forest inhabitants.

Unfortunately, pangolins are victims of illegal trade due to the high demand for their meat and scales.

The Pied-billed Selenider is a bird whose sounds are more reminiscent of the croaking of a frog rather than the melodious singing characteristic of most birds.

These colorful and unusual birds demonstrate a very inventive approach to finding a mate. During courtship, they throw ripe fruits at each other.

Due to the relative fragility of the beak, these birds are not able to independently build their own nesting sites. Instead, they prefer to occupy abandoned other people's homes, lining their bottom with soft blades of grass and settling down there for their own pleasure.
