The Seahorse
In my point of view I clearly think that seahorse's are very unique animals.
Unlike other animals they mate for life and they are also monogomous.
Saying that seahorse's are one of the few animals on earth where the male seahorse bears the unborn young.
Seahorse's are relatives to the pipefish. They can range in size from 0.6 inches ( 1.5 centimeters ) to 14 inches ( 35 centimeters ) long.
I think seahorses are very spectacular animals and very interesting animals. |

Ring Tailed Lemurs are only found on the African Island of Madagascar, they can also be found on some other small islands nearby. Madagascar is a place where there are animals that can be found no where else on the earth.
Ring Tailed Lemurs have vividly stripe, black and white tails that are very long. They are also exhibits at many zoo's around the world.
Lemurs use their hands and feet to move through trees, but they can not grip with their tails. Ring Tailed Lemurs may also spend a fair amount of time on the ground, which I think is very unusual.
Ring Tailed Lemurs eat alot of fruit which is a main part of their diet. Although they do eat a few other things aswell apart from fruit, they eat flowers, leaves, tree bark and sap.
Ring Tailed Lemurs have an odur that they can use to communicate and also be used as a weapon at the same time.
Lemurs also mark there own territory by their scent. During mating season lemurs tend to battle by out stinking each other.
Ring Tailed Lemurs tend to live in groups called Troops. Did you know that this Troop may contain 6 to 30 Lemurs, but it tends to be only 17 in the group. In these troups it is not just males there are also females aswell.
Ring Tailed Lemurs are endangered. |
