If you want to feed an animal from a reptile family in your home, you will come across many species. Iguana, snake, lizard, chameleon etc. For the care of such chameleons, there must be a suitable temperature. Otherwise, they will be inevitable in a short time. Reptiles with a cold-blooded nature move less than necessary. One reason for this is that the appropriate conditions are not provided to it. If you absolutely have taken care of chameleon animal at home, be sure to set up an area large enough to make room for it. Moving your pet will make you happy too. Otherwise, every hour of the day will lie only where it is located.

What Do Chameleons Eat?

Reptile animals that you feed at home will not cost much. This animal species, which does not burn much energy because it acts very little, prefers grass and insects for food. Lettuce, etc. You can give greens and various vegetables for some reptile animals. Others eat meat-added foods that are sold in pet shops. Like most reptiles, the reptile that you feed can eat flies and insects in the room. Reptile animals, which are generally suitable for desert climate, do not need to drink too much water. However, do not forget to frequently clean the water container and renew the water in it.

Care of Chameleons

Chameleons are generally an animal species that loves to live alone. Therefore, if you put another creature next to it, it will either eat it or these two animals will harm each other. You need to provide a suitable temperature environment for the care of these chameleons, where a suitable temperature is required for its survival. To provide this appropriate temperature, you can either install a bulb in its housing or use the heaters sold in pet shops. It is especially important to close the cover of the area where you feed your reptile, especially at night. If your animal runs away, it can hide or flee to places you cannot reach because it is a reptile species. If you see an unusual situation in the pet reptile that you feed, you should definitely take it to your vet and investigate the cause of the problem if he does not eat. If you look at it under suitable conditions, you will have an extraordinary pet that you can feed for many years.

Related to today’s geese and swans, this bird used to be the largest flying animal in the world. With a 7.4 meter (24 feet) long wingspan, Pelagornis would have rivaled the pterosaurs that came before it 42 million years ago. It also had pseudoteeth, which were basically teeth lining its beak.

02. Dimetrodon

Dimetrodon (meaning “two measures of teeth”) is an extinctt genus of synapsid that lived around 295–272 million years ago. There was a time when Dimetrodon was the largest carnivore on land, with some species growing up to 4.6 meters (15 ft). Sometimes mistaken for a dinosaur, Dimetrodon is more closely related to mammals, rather than reptiles. Plus, it lived 40 million years before the first dinosaur even walked the earth.

03. Hyneria

Hyneria was a prehistoric predatory lobe-finned fish that lived during the Devonian period around 360 million years ago. This shark eating fish swam in the waters of the Northeastern United States. At 2.5 meters in length (8.2 ft), it was one of the biggest predators in freshwater areas at the time. Its skull had heavy, ornamented dermal bones and its lower jaw was relatively long and shallow, the teeth were stout with those of the premaxilla forming fangs.

04. Allosaurus

Allosaurus is a genus of large theropod dinosaur that lived 155 to 150 million years ago during the late Jurassic period. The name “Allosaurus” means “different lizard.” Allosaurus was a large bipedal predator. Its skull was large and equipped with dozens of large, sharp teeth. It averaged 8.5 m (28 ft) in length, though fragmentary remains suggest it could have reached over 12 m (39 ft). As the most abundant large predator, Allosaurus was at the top of the food chain, probably preying on contemporaneous large herbivorous dinosaurs and perhaps even other predators.

05. Doedicurus

This giant prehistoric 4 meter long (13 ft) cousin of the armadillo only lived 78,000 years ago. With a height of 1.5 meters (5 ft) and an overall length of around 4 meters, Doedicurus could reach a mass of 1,910 to 2,370 kg. Its tail was surrounded by a flexible sheath of bone and had long spikes or knobs on the end, at least in male individuals. Its tail club was probably used in intraspecific conflict rather than defense against predators. Its name means “pestle tail”, referring to how, if the spikes were removed, it would resemble a pestle.

06. Thylacosmilus

Thylacosmilus isn’t really a cat. Thylacosmilus looks a lot like a sabre toothed cat, with those massive canines and an overall cat like look. But it’s actually a marsupial, kinda like a kangaroo. Its jaws were actually pretty weak, so it relied on its massive teeth to get the job done.

07. Cretoxyrhina

Cretoxyrhina mantelli was a large shark that lived about 100 to 82 million years ago, during the mid-Cretaceous period. It is nicknamed the Ginsu shark in reference to the Ginsu knife, since it fed by slicing into its victims with its knife-sharp teeth. In the Cretaceous period, North America was split into three islands. One on the east, one on the west, and one up north. Within that inland sea lived Cretoxyrhina. The Ginsu shark had 34 teeth in its upper jaw and 36 teeth in lower jaw, in each row.

08. Beelzebufo

Beelzebufo was a particularly large species of prehistoric frog first identified in 2007. Common names assigned by the popular media include devil frog, devil toad and the frog from hell. Fossils of Beelzebufo have been recovered from Madagascar, dating to the late Cretaceous period, some 70 million years ago. The species may have grown to over 40 cm (16 in) and 4 kg (9 lb), larger than any living frogs, including the largest known species, the goliath frog, which can be up to 32 cm (13 in). Beelzebufo was most likely a predator whose expansive mouth allowed it to eat relatively large prey, perhaps even juvenile dinosaurs.

09. Megatherium

Megatherium (great beast) was a genus of elephant-sized ground sloths endemic to South America. Its size was exceeded by only a few other land mammals, including mammoths and Paraceratherium. As big as today’s elephants, Megatherium was 6 meters in length (20 ft) and would have weighed more than 4 tons. Although vegetarian, some people do believe that Megatherium would have scavenged off of carrion killed by more agile hunters like Smilodon (the famous sabre toothed cat) and Phorosracos (Chocobos for those who play Final Fantasy). In the South America, the giant ground sloth flourished until about 10,500 years ago. Most cite the appearance of an expanding population of human hunters as the cause of its extinction.

10. Anomalocaris

Anomalocaris (“abnormal shrimp”) is an extinct genus of anomalocaridid, a family of animals thought to be closely related to ancestral arthropods. Anomalocardids can be credited as some of the first ever super-predators because they had something that other animals during their time never had: complex eyes. You might think that their eyes aren’t that good, but back in the Cambrian age some 541 million years ago it was revolutionary. These animals weren’t small either. The largest species grew up to 2 meters in length (6 ft).]]> true https://9koala.com/1352-why-cats-hide-their-feces.html maharram0 Animals Thu, 05 Mar 2026 11:39:57 +0400 First, wild cats define their areas with the help of their feces, so strangers can't go into these areas. Therefore, strong Felidaes (like jaguar or lion) usually don't hide their feces. In that way, they give "I'm here" message to their opponents. But, if weaker specie is on another strong specie's area, it hides its fence in order to hide itself. Modern day domestic cats are inclined to hide their fences instinctively because they are from weaker cat groups.

Second, hunters can perceive their preys' place from their smells. Therefore, exposing fences is disadvantage for weaker felidaes. So, many cats hide their fences in wild nature in order to hide from hunters. Modern day domestic cats do that instinctively, even if there's no hunter around.

01. Weirdest Mouth

Sharks have been around the earth for at least 400 million years and have survived a lot of extinctions in one form or the other. Helicoprion survived the biggest mass extinction in history (Permian–Triassic extinction event). Up until 2013, the only known fossils of this genus on record were their teeth, which were arranged in a “tooth-whorl” strongly reminiscent of a circular saw.It was not until the discovery of the skull of a related genus of eugeneodont, Ornithoprion, that it was realized that the tooth-whorl was in the lower jaw. The tooth-whorl represented all of the teeth produced by that individual in the lower jaw, in that as the individual grew, with the older, smaller teeth being moved into the center of the whorl by the appearance of larger, newer teeth.Fossils have been found in the Ural Mountains, Wandagee Mountain of Western Australia, China, and Western North America, including the Canadian Arctic, Mexico, Idaho, Nevada, Wyoming, Texas, Utah, and California.

02 Biggest Nopes

A little armoured puppy with pincers and a stinger the size of a lightbulb. Jaekelopterus was the size of a crocodile with an appetite to match. It ravaged anything that stood in its wake. Other sea scorpions, ancient fish, ammonites, anything was on the dinner menu. It was also one of the largest sea scorpions in existence.
Perhaps one of the more well-known nopes in history, Arthropleura was basically a giant millipede the size of a car. It scuttled around ancient Carboniferous forests eating rotting plant matter. It was vegetarian, mostly.

03 Biggest Snake

Snakes these days usually are pretty small. The largest, by mass, is the green anaconda. The longest is the reticulated python. Titanoboa would have eaten them as a snack. Measuring over 12 meters in length, it was the size of T. Rex and its diet usually consisted of giant crocodiles and turtles that shared its territory. Thankfully for Tyrannosaurus, Titanoboa lived right after the dinosaurs’ extinction, ruling the earth just as the dinosaurs did before it.

04 Largest Penguin

Once found in New Zealand 45 million years ago, the giant penguin known as Anthropornis grew to heights of 1.7 meters (5 ft, 7 inches). In comparison, the largest penguins today, the emperor penguin, are only 1.2 meters (3 ft, 11 inches) tall.

05 Smallest Pterosaur

Generally thought of as massive flying reptiles, pterosaurs did come in all shapes and sizes. The smallest pterosaur is Nemicolopterus which lived in China some 120 million years ago. Its wingspan is less than 30 cm across (1 ft).

06 Largest Terrestrial Animal

Amphicoelias fragillimus is estimated to have been the largest terrestrial animal to have ever lived, at almost 60 meters in length (196 ft) and weighing in at 135 short tons. However, its fossils were lost and paleontologists today can only guess upon the drawings made of the original bones.

07 Largest Terrestrial Carnivore

The largest terrestrial predator to have ever lived was the bastard child of a crocodile, an otter, a duck, and a sailboat. Growing up to 18 meters (60 ft), Spinosaurus would have used its massive size to take down large prehistoric fishes that lived in the waters of prehistoric Northern Africa. Spinosaurus is special because it is the only dinosaur known to have lived a semi-aquatic lifestyle.

08 Strongest Bite

Growing to about a meter in length (3 ft) and up to 22 pounds, this Megapiranha paranensis terrorized South America 10 million years ago with bite forces of up to 4,750 newtons (1, 070 pounds)! Pound for pound, it is the strongest bite in prehistory, even outmatching larger predators like T. rex and Carcharodon megalodon.

09 Longest Dinosaur Name

Micropachycephalosaurus holds the title of the longest dinosaur name. It lived in China 69 million years ago. It is also one of the smallest dinosaurs to have been discovered, at around 1 meter in total length (3 ft).

10 Smartest Dinosaur

Troodon, a North American dinosaur, holds the record for the dinosaur with the largest brain to body ratio. It was around 2 meters in length (6 ft), and had slashing claws like Velociraptor and Deinonychus.]]> true https://9koala.com/629-prehistoric-giants-of-australia.html Admin Animals Sun, 12 Jan 2025 16:49:12 +0400

1. Thylacoleo

Thylacoleo (“pouch lion”) is an extinct genus of carnivorous marsupials that lived in Australia 2 million to 46 thousand years ago. Thylacoleo was once the largest mammalian carnivores of its time. With extremely powerful forelimbs, and massive claws on its thumbs to rip apart prey, this 1.5 meter long (5 feet) predator was able to take down animals much larger than itself easily. Pound for pound, it had the strongest bite of any mammal species living or extinct.

2. Liasis Dubudingala

Liasis dubudinala is the largest snake known from Australia, estimated to have been about 9 metres in length. Its standard common name is Bluff Downs Giant Python. Like other pythons, Liasis dubudingala was a non-venomous constrictor that killed by wrapping its coils around the unlucky prey and squeezing until suffocation occurred. It probably ate mammals, birds and other vertebrates, as the living Olive Python does. This reptile went extinct during the Pilocene epoch some 2.58 million years ago.

3. Quinkana

Quinkana comes from the “Quinkans”, a legendary folk from Aboriginal myths. Crocodiles are cool because if you stay away from the water’s edge, you’re pretty much okay. Quinkana was a type of terrestrial crocodle, which means it spent most of its time on land. Its body had developed long legs in order to let it “gallop.” It was 6 meters long (20 ft), and the species had only gone extinct some 40,000 years ago.

4. Megalania

Megalania is an extinct very large goanna or monitor lizard. They were part of a megafaunal assemblage that inhabited southern Australia during the Pleistocene. They seem to have disappeared between 40,000 and 30,000 years ago. The first aboriginal settlers of Australia might have encountered them. Megalania was 7 meters at its maximum length (23 feet), making it one of the largest predators in its time. Like Komodo Dragons today, Megalania most likely had bacteria infested mouths that produced a septic bite.

5. Meiolania

This 2.5 meter long (8.2 ft) tortoise seems like an evolutionary throwback to the ankylosaurs that died out before it 65 million years ago. This species had horns on its head and a club like tail. The last relict populations died out some 2000 years ago. It is the second-largest known nonmarine turtle or tortoise. It is thought that they were hunted to extinction by the Lapita people about 3,000 years ago, based on the presence of bones at the bottom of a garbage midden at an archeological site.

6. Dromornis

Dromornis was a genus of prehistoric birds that stood up to 3 meters (10 feet) tall and weighed up to half a ton. Although they looked like giant emus, the Dromornis are more closely related to waterfowl. This genus had a long neck and stub-like wings, rendering it flightless. Its legs were powerful, but it is not believed to have been a fast runner. The bird’s beak was large and immensely powerful, leading early researchers to believe that it was used to shear through tough plant stalks. However, recently others have argued that the size of the beak suggests that the bird was a carnivore.

7. Procoptodon

Procoptodon was a genus of giant short-faced kangaroo living in Australia during the Pleistocene epoch. P. goliah, the largest known kangaroo that ever existed, stood approximately 2 m (6.6 ft). They weighed about 232 kg (511 lb). These animals lived alongside modern species of kangaroo, but specialised on a diet of leaves from trees and shrubs. The genus was present until at least about 50,000 years ago before going extinct, although there is some evidence they may have survived to as recently as 18,000 years ago. Its extinction may have been due to climate shifts during the Pleistocene, or to human hunting.

8. Zaglossus Hacketti

Zaglossus hacketti is an extinct species of long-beaked echidna from Western Australia that is dated to the Pleistocene. It is known only from a few bones. It was about 1 meter long and probably weighed about 30 kg (66 lb). It had longer, straighter legs than any of the modern echidnas. It is speculated that this feature made the animal more adept at traversing through thickly wooded forests. Some of the fossils have incisions and burn marks, suggesting that Z. hacketti was at least occasionally hunted by humans.

9. Diprotodon

Diprotodon, meaning “two forward teeth”, is the largest known marsupial ever to have lived. Along with many other members of a group of unusual species collectively called the “”Australian megafauna”, it existed from approximately 1.6 million years ago until extinction some 46,000 years age. The largest specimens were hippopotamus-sized: about 3 metres (9.8 ft) from nose to tail, standing 2 metres (6.6 ft) tall at the shoulder and weighing about 2,800 kilograms (6,200 lb). They inhabited open forest, woodlands, and grasslands, possibly staying close to water, and eating leaves, shrubs, and some grasses. Most modern researchers argue that diprotodonts, along with a wide range of other Australian megafauna, became extinct shortly after humans arrived in Australia about 50,000 years ago.

10. Palorchestes

Palorchestes (‘ancient leaper or dancer’) is an extinct genus of terrestrial herbivorous marsupial that lived around 11.6 million years ago to 11,000 years ago, and thought to be in existence for approximately 11.59 million years. One species was almost as large as a horse, being around 2.5 meters (8.2 ft) in length with a weight of about 200 kilograms (440 lb), and had four powerful legs. Its front legs bore large claws, similar to those of a koala, which it probably used to pull down leaves and strip the bark from trees.]]> true https://9koala.com/380-interesting-information-about-giraffes.html Admin Animals Fri, 10 Jan 2025 11:51:59 +0400 Giraffes are the longest mammals in the world, and a newborn giraffe is taller than the average person.

New-born giraffes can stand up in half an hour, and they can run about 10 hours after they are born.

-Giraffes spend most of their lives standing. They sleep on foot. They give birth on foot.

Giraffes are among the mammals that have the shortest sleep requirement by sleeping between 10 minutes and 2 hours a day.

-Giraffes play in groups and rest under the supervision of their mothers until they are 5 months old.

-Giraffes are social, peaceful animals. They rarely fight. This fight happens by hitting their necks. And it rarely results in injury.

My speckle index in giraffes is like fingerprints in humans.

The giraffes' tongues are 45 centimeters long, which allows them to feed on thorny trees that other animals cannot reach.

If you thought zebras were just horses with stripes, think again! Here are 18 facts about zebras that you probably didn’t know!

Species

There are three different species of zebras and all belong to the Equus family; which also includes donkeys and horses. The three different species all come from Africa and they are: the Burchell’s zebra, also known as the plains zebra, the Grevy’s zebra that is named after the French president Jules Grevy and finally, we have the Equus zebra.

The Stripes

Why do zebras have stripes? There are many theories around! Some say it helps them to camouflage in the wild, so that their predators won’t find them. New research however, suggest that these stripes came about to deter blood-sucking insects.

Stripe Width

Each species of zebra have different types of stripes, varying in their width.

That Question

Is the zebra’s coat black with white stripes or is their coat white with black stripes? The debate continues!

Fingerprints

Each zebra is unique; they all have different stripe patterns. It is like comparing it to humans and their fingerprints.

Tijuana

The Tijuana zebra is not really a zebra. It is in fact a donkey that has been painted to look like a zebra. They are used in Mexico as tourist attractions!

Weight

Zebras weigh between 180 to 380 pounds, depending on the species.

Family

Zebras live in small groups with their families. The groups then group together to form a large herd. Even when they are in a herd, zebras tend to stay close to their family group.

Danger Detector

There is always safety in numbers, so herds of zebras stick together to look out for predators and to help defend the weaker animals. These predators include lions and hyenas.

Confusion

This one is hard to believe, but herds of zebras are often confused with herds of antelope.

Age

In the wild zebras live up to 20 to 30 years but in captivity they can live up to 40 years.

Zebra Crossing

The zebra crossing, called the Zebroid, has existed since the 19^th century.

Speed

Zebras are unfortunately not as fast as horses; they run up to 55km per hour. They do however have excellent endurance and employ a zig zag run that helps them to escape from predators.

Fighting

This is quite impressive - in the past it has been known that zebras have won fights with lions.

Domesticate

Humans have tried to domesticate zebras in the past to have as pets and were unsuccessful.

Responsibility

During the annual migration, it is the eldest zebra in the family group’s responsibility to make sure the zebras in their family don’t stray too far.

Endangered

The Equus and Grevy’s zebra are endangered. This is mainly due to humans destroying their habitat and hunting.

Walking

When a baby zebra is born, they can stand and walk after just 20 minutes!

01. Sauroniops

“The eye of Sauron.”
Yes, there is a basal carcharodontosaur (shark toothed lizard) named after the Dark Lord himself. Living in Early Cretaceous Morocco where the shadows lie, this 12 meter long (42 ft) superpredator would have matched T. rex in size and ferocity.

02. Spinosaurus

“Spined lizard.”
The largest terrestrial predator to have ever lived was the bastard child of a crocodile, an otter, a duck, and a sailboat. Growing up to 18 meters (60 ft), Spinosaurus would have used its massive size to take down large prehistoric fishes that lived in the waters of prehistoric Northern Africa. Spinosaurus is special because it is the only dinosaur known to have lived a semi-aquatic lifestyle.

03. Diablosaurus

“Devil horned face.”
Geologically, this ceratopsian (horned face) is the oldest. Living in North America during the late Cretaceous some 79 million years ago, it would have predated its more famous cousin, Triceratops, by 11 million years. This species grew to moderate sizes, at 5.5 m (18 ft). However, it makes up for its size by being named after Satan himself.

04. Stygimoloch

“Demon from the River Styx.”
How metal is that name. Demon from the River Styx. Paleontologists are secretly all metalheads. Stygimoloch, like other pachycephalosaurs (thick headed lizards) had domed heads that were thought to have been used to ram each other. However, studies have shown, that they’d break their skulls if that ever happened.

05. Styracosaurus

“Spiked lizard.”
Similar in size to Diabloceratops, Styracosaurus differs in its headgear. Possessing six horns that, at their largest, can grow up to 2 ft in length, Styracosaurus had one of the most impressive displays in history.

06. Utahraptor

“Utah thief.”
One of the largest of the dromaeosaurids (the scientific name for raptors), this 7 meter long (23 ft) predator would have hunted in Early Cretaceous North America like wolves, bringing down much larger prey with foot long claws on their hind legs.

07. Therizinosaurus

“Scythe lizard.”
Each one of Therizinosaurus’ front limbs had three 3 foot long claws that were once mistaken for fossilized turtle ribs. Living in the sands of Mongolia during the Late Cretaceous, this theropod is somewhat unique, as it may have been herbivorous unlike most of its other kin.

08. Polacanthus

“Many thorns.”
An early ankylosaur (fused lizard) living in Early Cretaceous England, Polacanthus was a living tank. Well, all ankylosaurs were, as they all sported heavy armour on their backs and tails (some species even had their eyelids armoured). However, Polacanthus takes it to the extreme, with spikes almost everywhere on its body.

09. Kentrosaurus

“Spiked lizard.”
Sure, Stegosaurus is more famous and grew larger than its earlier 4.5 meter (15 ft) predecessor, but Kentrosaurus takes the cake for having the most spikes within the stegosaur (roofed lizard) family. You’ve got spikes running from the base of its tail to the end. You’ve got shoulder spikes. You’ve got 2.3 ft long spikes. You get a spike. You get a spike. Everyone gets a spike! Vlad the Impaler would be pleased.

10. Carnotaurus

“Meat eating bull.”
Abelisaurs (Abel’s lizards) were built for running and smashing into prey. That’s why their arms grew totally useless and were shorter than T. rex’s. Carnotaurus was the largest abelisaur, reaching lengths of 9 meters (30 ft). It’s unique in the dinosaur world because it has horns above its eyes, which hold some debatable functions in life.]]> true https://9koala.com/435-sea-turtles-are-in-danger.html Admin Animals Wed, 08 Jan 2025 17:09:44 +0400

Sea turtles may confuse the smell of ocean plastic with food

The reptiles respond to both scents by sniffing more, a key foraging behavior

To a sea turtle, plastic debris might smell like dinner.
As the plastic detritus of modern human life wash into oceans, marine creatures of all kinds interact with and sometimes eat it . Recent research suggests that this is no accident. Plastic that’s been stewing in the ocean emits a chemical that, to some seabirds and fish, smells a lot like food . That chemical gas, dimethyl sulfide, is also produced by phytoplankton, a key food source for many marine animals.
Now, scientists have determined that loggerhead sea turtles may also confuse the smell of plastic with food, according to a study published March 9 in Current Biology.
Over two weeks in june 2020, 15 captive loggerheads in tanks were exposed at the water surface to a slew of scents, including the largely neutral scent of water as a control, of food such as shrimp and of new and ocean-soaked plastic.
The turtles (Caretta caretta) largely ignored smells of water and clean plastic. But when the scientists puffed air containing scents of either food or ocean-stewed plastic, the reptiles increased their sniffing above water — a typical foraging behavior. In fact, those responses to food and ocean-soaked plastic were indistinguishable to the researchers, suggesting that the plastic can induce foraging behavior in sea turtles, the team says. That might explain why sea turtles get entangled in or eat plastic, which can be harmful.
Along with previous research, this study expands the breadth of marine life that may confuse plastic with food.]]> true https://9koala.com/1351-do-animals-suicide.html maharram0 Animals Wed, 08 Jan 2025 17:08:47 +0400
University of Colorado professor of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, member of the Animal Behavior Society, expert on animal perception and emotions Marc Bekoff says that animals, like situations when humans decide to stop their existence, seem like to decide to take their lives. The word "seem like" is important because we don't know whether these types of behaviors is really "suicide" or not.

For example, a few evidences for "suicide" of whales have been determined for now. Albeit, whether these observations are really suicide attempts or not have not determined yet. It has been observed that elephants under very high stress try to die by stepping on their noses or jumping from a high hill. However, is there "wish to die" through these traits and behaviors? We don't know.

For above-mentioned reasons, scientists don't know exactly whether animals do suicide or not. Some scientist say that animals don't have death perception as humans.]]>
