One look at the Jerboa and one would believe that some kangaroo got drunk and impregnated a rat that was a cross between a bunny rabbit. Jerboas are mouse like, with bodies ranging from 5 to 15 cm (2 to 5.9 inches) in length and long tails of 7 to 25 cm. They have long hind legs which they use to hop around. Jerboa are nocturnal and does most of their movement and feeding at nights. These little two leg walking animals are a sight to behold.

​Monkeys
The monkey is a natural at walking on two feet. Even though when monkeys decide to move quickly, they do so using hands and feet. Monkeys have always been considered the closest relative of human beings. So walking on two feet should not be a problem for these primates.
Kangaroo hops on two legs

Kangaroo
If you have been to the bushes of Australia or the Zoo, you would definitely see this large hopping rat. Well, the kangaroo is not really a rat but probably a very distant relative. The Kangaroo has powerful hind legs which it uses to hop around. When standing, it uses it's tail to help balance it's body weight. You don't want to get into a squabble with this Marsupial. It also uses those powerful hind legs to kick while balancing it's body weight with it's tail. ​

Similarities and Differences Between Dolphin and Whale

5/9/2018

0 Comments

 
Whales and Dolphins have fascinated sea wold lovers for decades. Both animals are aquatic and exhibit quite a bit of intelligence. But what makes a whale different from a dolphin? What makes these two sea dwellers similar. Lets take a look
Picture
 1. Mammals
Even though both animals live in water, they are not considered fish but mammals for specific reasons.
They are warm blooded
They give birth to live young ones

2. Blow Holes
Both Dolphin and Whale have blowholes at the top of their heads. This is not to create a fancy water eruption as the water park, but to allow the animal to breath. When whales and dolphins  reach the water surface to breathe, they will forcefully expel air through the hole at the top of their heads. 

3. Communication
Dolphins makes whistling and other clicking sounds to communicate with other dolphins and their existing underwater environment. Just like dolphins, whales use different sounds to communicate also. Toothed whales communicate using high-frequency clicks and whistles. Single click sounds are used mainly for echolocation while multiple clicks are used to communicate with other whales and even dolphins in the area.

4. Socialization
A group of whales are commonly called a pod, likewise a group of dolphins are commonly called a pod.  Both whales and dolphins have high socialization skills and form what may be groups or communities. These groups help in making their style of hunting easier and helps form a solid barrier of protection from some sharks.

5. Birth
Whales and Dolphins give birth to a single calf at a time at a gestation period of 11-18 months.
e whistling sounds through their blowholes to communicate with one another underwater.

1. Size
All dolphins are whales but not all whales are dolphins. Even the mammal we called "Killer Whale" is actually a dolphin. Whales will tend to grow much larger than their dolphin counterparts  and larger whales will feed on much smaller preys such as shrimp and small schools of fish.

2. Speed and Agility
There is no doubt that wen it comes on to agility, dolphins will win this hands down. They are quick and capable of doing some amazing water tricks.

3. Curiosity / Friendliness
Dolphins tend to be a bit more curious than whales as they will approach divers and even give them a nudge or two to see what they are doing and gain some attention.

4. Intelligence
​Whales are intelligent creatures. But dolphins exhibit a level of intelligence even greater of that of even dogs and pigs.

5. Two Blow Holes and Baleen
Baleen whales have baleen and two blow holes.  The baleen in baleen whales acts as a strainer when the whale feeds. the baleen is made of keratin. The humpback baleen has approximately 600 baleen plates in the upper jaw straining out all unwanted materials from entering the whales stomach.
