The Kung Fu Birds
Kung Fu- the ancient Chinese martial art has been around for centuries. It has been practiced for so long that the birds on the branches are beginning to get the hang of it. It makes one wonder whether the birds were the ones that had invented this mystical way of self-defense or the humans? Looking at these birds fight for their territory shows us that humans are not much different. This mystery will probably be left unsolved but it is your task to decide whether it is true or false.

Amazing Photos Of Chicks During Feeding
They are cute, they are funny, and they are just like human kids. These pictures show us the first week of life the chicks warbler, as well as their relationships with their parents. And you will see how these birds remind our children. All day they sit and chirp, waiting for the fly mom who does nothing that is worn around the neighborhood, collecting food for their kids.
Funny And Cute Pandas
They are cute, they are funny but they aren’t a lot today on Earth. So, let’s take the most of them while they are still here. The panda is a conservation reliant endangered species. A 2007 report shows 239 pandas living in captivity inside China and another 27 outside the country. Wild population estimates vary; one estimate shows that there are about 1,590 individuals living in the wild, while a 2006 study via DNA analysis estimated that this figure could be as high as 2,000 to 3,000. Some reports also show that the number of pandas in the wild is on the rise. However, the jucn does not believe there is enough certainty yet to reclassify the species from Endangered to Vulnerable.

Wolf Hunt In Chernobyl

01. A man drags a wolf killed during a wolf hunt near the village of Antonov, about 370 km (230 miles) southeast of Minsk, near the 30 km (19 miles) exclusion zone around the Chernobyl nuclear reactor, January 9, 2011. Despite radiation, wildlife in and around the exclusion zone has been teeming since people left the area around Chernobyl after the 1986 nuclear disaster. Wolves, foxes and racoon dogs in the area may be hunted throughout the year as they are not wanted in Belarus, according to the keepers of the ecological reserve. REUTERS/Vasily Fedosenko
