Black Bear / Ursus americanus

Black Bears

Mother black bears are very protective over their young, as they stay with them until 2 years old.

Black bears are North America's most familiar and common bears. They typically live in forests and are excellent tree climbers, but are also found in mountains and swamps. 

Despite their name, 'black bears'  they can also be blue- (grey) or blue-black, brown, cinnamon, or even (very rarely) white.

Black bears are very opportunistic eaters. Most of their diet consists of grasses, roots, berries, and insects, but they also eat mammals, fish, human food, and occasionally some human too.

Female black bears give birth to two or three blind, helpless cubs in mid-winter and nurse them in the den until spring, when all emerge in search of food. The cubs will stay with their very protective mother for about two years. In a group black bears are known as a sloth or a sleuth.

Black bears are not true hibernators. During their winter dormant period, though, they do not eat, drink, urinate, or defecate, but may wake up if disturbed.

Birds of Paradise / Paradisaeidae

Birds of paradise

The birds of paradise are the most beautiful birds, with their vibrant colours and personality along with it, their feathers are very rare and spectacular, in all the many forms.

They also put on an amazing show, to other mates.

There are more than three dozen species in the family, more commonly known as the birds of paradise. Most are distinguished by striking colours and bright plumage of yellow, blue, scarlet, and green. 

Males put their bright colours and unusual ornaments to good use when they display for females. Their elaborate dances, poses, and other rituals accentuate their appearance and put on a phenomenal show for both female birds and any humans lucky enough to be in the vicinity. 

These birds also lend their name to a colourful flower. South Africa's bird-of-paradise (Strelitzia reginae) is a member of the banana family. It sports a beautiful flower believed to resemble the avian bird of paradise in flight.

Bengal Tiger / Panthera tigris tigris

Bengal Tigers

    

Bengal tigers are one of many beautiful varieties of the big cat pride.  
The pattern on the top of the Bengal tigers head in Chinese means king.

There were eight tiger subspecies at one time, but three became extinct during the 20th century. Over the last 100 years, hunting and forest destruction have reduced tiger populations from hundreds of thousands of animals to perhaps fewer than 2,500!
Tigers have been poached and killed, to be used for Chinese medicines, rugs, coats and much more horrid things. They are an endangered species.

Despite their fearsome reputation, most tigers avoid humans; however, a few do become dangerous man-eaters. These animals are often sick and unable to hunt normally, or live in an area where their traditional prey has vanished.

Tigers are mammals and are carnivores too, they live for around 8 - 10 years. A Tigers roar is very loud and can be heard from an amazing 2 miles away (3km)!

They are powerful nocturnal hunters that travel many miles to find buffalo, deer, wild pigs, and other large mammals for dinner. Tigers use their distinctive coats as camouflage (only two have exactly the same stripes). They lie and wait to creep close enough to attack their victims with a quick spring and a fatal pounce. A hungry tiger can eat as much as 60 pounds in one night.

Beluga Whale / Delphinapterus leucas

         Beluga Whale

The beluga whale is a very large mammal, but despite the size they are sadly under threat.

The beluga, or white whale, is one of the smallest species of whale. Their distinctive colour and prominent foreheads make them easily identifiable.

The beluga whale is a carnivore, and also is the only whale that has a flexible neck that can move all directions.  Belugas generally live together in small groups known as pods. 

Belugas feed on fish, crustaceans, and worms. The whale is related to the tusked "unicorn" whale known as the narwhal. The beluga is not related to the sturgeon of the same name, which has been heavily fished for its famous caviare.

Beluga whales can live for a whopping 25 to 50 years, because their heart is so large... the size of an average car and their main body altogether is half of a bus.

Beaver / Castor canadensis

Beaver

Beavers are famously busy, and they turn their talents to re-engineering the landscape as few other animals can. When sites are available, beavers burrow in the banks of rivers and lakes. 

Beavers have amazing sharp teeth, and incredibly long, so they can eat through very thick and hard objects, on the picture above is an image of a beaver holding a stick and chewing through it.

Beavers can also swim very well, they are really talented.

A beaver is a herbivore and lives up to 30 years, they are mammals too.

Beavers are like humans because they can manipulate their homes how they like.

Beavers are small.

Baltimore Oriole / Icterus galbula

Baltimore Oriole

The oriole bird, creates an amazing hanging nest and in there it lays its 4 or more eggs.

These birds are very attractive and they are omnivores, These attractive birds frequent woodlands and eat common creatures including caterpillars and insects supplemented by fruits and berries. The Baltimore oriole's appetite for caterpillars may help protect forests from some destructive pests. In the backyard, they can be enticed to visit feeders with oranges, nectars, or peanut butter.

Animal abuse needs to stop NOW!

Why force animals into fighting and destroying their lives for a bit of money! 

Money doesn't buy a life back nor friends and happiness but a dog / animal is all of that in one.

Poaching is horrible too, it extinct's animals from their habitats and also kills animals families, animals do have feeling and a heart.

Even the Queen is a nasty, selfish woman, as she herself kills around 500 or more black bears a year just to make her soldiers fluffy hats, what' wrong with fake fur? and where does all the unused fur go?

Animals are fighting for their lives don't hurt them and torture them, what happens when it happens to us such as black slavery etc...

someone spoke up then and still do so....

PEOPLE NEED TO SPEAK UP FOR ANIMAL RIGHTS, GIVE THEM A LIFE, GIVE THEM .... A VOICE.
