Description: The upperparts are brown-black and tawny-buff, showing as dense freckling on the forehead and crown, stripes on the nape, sides and back of the neck, and dark splotches on the pale ground colour of the back, mantle and scapulars. A narrow buff band, freckled with brown buff, runs up from the base of the bill, above the inner part of the eye and along the inner edge of the black-brown, &quot;ear-tufts&quot;.

Habits: Active mainly at dusk to dawn. Flight is noiseless, whith soft wingbeats interrupted by gliding when flying over long distance. Will sometimes soar.

Voice: A deep, monotonous &quot;oohu-oohu-oohu&quot;. The female's call is slightly higher than the male's. When threatened, they may bark and growl.

Hunting &amp; Food: Eagle Owls have various hunting techniques, and will take prey on the ground or in full flight. They may hunt in forests, but prefer open spaces.
Eagle Owls will eat almost anything that moves - from beetles to roe deer fawns. The major part of their diet consists of mammals (Voles, rats, mice, foxes, hares etc...), but birds of all kinds are also taken, including crows, ducks, grouse, seabirds, and even other birds of prey (including other owls). Other prey taken include snakes, lizards, frogs, fish, and crabs.
The most common type of prey depends largely on relative availability, but are usually voles and rats. In some coastal areas, they have been known to feed mainly on ducks and seabirds.
Pellets are somewhat compressed, irregularly cylindrical or conical shaped, averaging about 75 x 32 mm (3 x 1.25&quot;).

Habitat: Eagle Owls occupy a variety of habitats, from coniferous forests to warm deserts. Rocky landscapes are often favoured. Adequate food supply and nesting sites seem to be the most important prerequisites.

Distribution: North Africa, Europe, Asia, Middle East.]]></media:description><media:thumbnail url="http://rlv.zcache.com/eurasian_eagle_owl_poster-p228814425944197255td2h_125.jpg" /><media:content url="http://rlv.zcache.com/eurasian_eagle_owl_poster-p228814425944197255td2h_500.jpg" /><media:keywords>baby, bird, birds, bubo, crabs, cute, eagle, eurasian, fish, fly, flying, forest, frogs, hunt, hunting, lizards, owl, owls, pray, snakes, tree</media:keywords><media:rating scheme="urn:mpaa">g</media:rating></item>

Generally large ground squirrels, those most often referred to as marmots tend to live in mountainous areas such as the Alps, Carpathians, Tatra, and Pyrenees in Europe, the Rockies and the Sierra Nevada in the United States, and Northern Canada. However, the groundhog is also properly called a marmot, while the similarly-sized but more social prairie dog is not classified in the genus Marmota but in the related genus Cynomys.

Marmots typically live in burrows, and hibernate there through the winter. Most marmots are highly social, and use loud whistles to communicate with one another, especially when alarmed.

Marmots mainly eat greens. They eat many types of grasses, berries, lichens, mosses, roots and flowers.]]></media:description><media:thumbnail url="http://rlv.zcache.com/hugging_time_mousepad-p144688723916333580td22_125.jpg" /><media:content url="http://rlv.zcache.com/hugging_time_mousepad-p144688723916333580td22_500.jpg" /><media:keywords>alarmed, berries, burrows, cute, flowers, grasses, greens, hibernate, lichens, marmots, mosses, prairie, roots, social, squirrels, whistles</media:keywords><media:rating scheme="urn:mpaa">g</media:rating></item>

The cheetah’s slender, long-legged body is built for speed. Cheetahs are tan in color with black spots all over their bodies. They can also be distinguished from other big cats by their smaller size, spotted coats, small heads and ears and distinctive “tear stripes” that stretch from the corner of the eye to the side of the nose.

Found mostly in open and partially open savannah, cheetahs rely on tall grasses for camouflage when hunting. They are diurnal (more active in the day) animals and hunt mostly during the late morning or early evening. Only half of the chases, which last from 20-60 seconds, are successful.

Cheetahs knock their prey to the ground and kill with a suffocating bite to the neck. They must eat quickly before they lose the kills to other bigger or more aggressive carnivores.

Cheetahs are also typically solitary animals. While males sometimes live with a small group of brothers from the same litter, females generally raise cubs by themselves for about a year. 

Height 2 &#189; -3 feet at shoulders
Length 44-53 inches (tail length of 26-33 inches)
Weight 110-140 pounds

Top Speed 70mph

Lifespan 10-12 years

Diet Gazelles, wildebeest calves, impalas and smaller hoofed animals 

Threats

The cheetah’s future is uncertain due to a variety of threats. The biggest is habitat loss due to human encroachment. In addition, they often deal with declines in prey and conflicts with humans. There is also high cub mortality due to predation by carnivores like lions and hyenas that are in competition with the cheetah, as well as genetic inbreeding which leads to abnormalities.]]></media:description><media:thumbnail url="http://rlv.zcache.com/cheetah_keychain-p146440686071661559td8i_125.jpg" /><media:content url="http://rlv.zcache.com/cheetah_keychain-p146440686071661559td8i_500.jpg" /><media:keywords>animal, animals, big, black, calves, carnivores, cat, cats, cheetah, cubs, fastest, gazelles, hoofed, impalas, kill, land, large, prey, savannah, small, smaller, solitary, speed, spots, threats, wildebeest</media:keywords><media:rating scheme="urn:mpaa">g</media:rating></item>

They can also be distinguished from other big cats by their smaller size, spotted coats, small heads and ears and distinctive “tear stripes” that stretch from the corner of the eye to the side of the nose.

Found mostly in open and partially open savannah, cheetahs rely on tall grasses for camouflage when hunting. They are diurnal (more active in the day) animals and hunt mostly during the late morning or early evening. Only half of the chases, which last from 20-60 seconds, are successful.

Cheetahs knock their prey to the ground and kill with a suffocating bite to the neck. They must eat quickly before they lose the kills to other bigger or more aggressive carnivores.

Cheetahs are also typically solitary animals. While males sometimes live with a small group of brothers from the same litter, females generally raise cubs by themselves for about a year. 

Height 2 &#189; -3 feet at shoulders
Length 44-53 inches (tail length of 26-33 inches)
Weight 110-140 pounds

Top Speed 70mph

Lifespan 10-12 years

Diet Gazelles, wildebeest calves, impalas and smaller hoofed animals 

Threats

The cheetah’s future is uncertain due to a variety of threats. The biggest is habitat loss due to human encroachment. In addition, they often deal with declines in prey and conflicts with humans. There is also high cub mortality due to predation by carnivores like lions and hyenas that are in competition with the cheetah, as well as genetic inbreeding which leads to abnormalities.]]></media:description><media:thumbnail url="http://rlv.zcache.com/cheetah_mousepad-p144094305771645146td22_125.jpg" /><media:content url="http://rlv.zcache.com/cheetah_mousepad-p144094305771645146td22_500.jpg" /><media:keywords>animal, animals, big, black, calves, carnivores, cat, cats, cheetah, cubs, fastest, gazelles, hoofed, impalas, kill, land, large, prey, savannah, small, smaller, solitary, speed, spots, threats, wildebeest</media:keywords><media:rating scheme="urn:mpaa">g</media:rating></item>

They have a very soft underfur which is protected by their outer layer of long guard hair. This traps a layer of air, and keeps them dry and warm under water.

Most otters have fish as the primary item in their diet, supplemented by frogs, crayfish and crabs. Some are expert at opening shellfish, and others will take any available small mammals or birds.

Otters are playful animals, for example sliding repeatedly down snowy slopes, apparently from sheer enjoyment.]]></media:description><media:thumbnail url="http://rlv.zcache.com/family_of_otters_poster-p228689166212146530td2h_125.jpg" /><media:content url="http://rlv.zcache.com/family_of_otters_poster-p228689166212146530td2h_500.jpg" /><media:keywords>animals, cute, enjoyment, muscular, otter, paws, pets, playful, playing, portrait, tails, water, webbed, wildlife</media:keywords><media:rating scheme="urn:mpaa">g</media:rating></item>

The mallard is a large and heavy looking duck. It has a long body and a long and broad bill. The male has a dark green head, a yellow bill, is mainly purple-brown on the breast and grey on the body. The female is mainly brown with an orange bill. It breeds in all parts of the UK in summer and winter, wherever there are suitable wetland habitats, although it is scarcer in upland areas. Mallards in the UK may be resident breeders or migrants - many of the birds that breed in Iceland and northern Europe spend the winter here.
Where to see them

It is the commonest duck and most widespread so you have a chance of seeing it just about anywhere where there is suitable wetland habitat, even in urban areas.
When to see them

All year round.
What they eat

Seeds, acorns and berries, plants, insects and shellfish.]]></media:description><media:thumbnail url="http://rlv.zcache.com/camra_curious_magnet-p147910698516436694tdcm_125.jpg" /><media:content url="http://rlv.zcache.com/camra_curious_magnet-p147910698516436694tdcm_500.jpg" /><media:keywords>beak, bill, birds, calm, duck, eyes, feathers, fowl, green, lake, mallard, nature, outdoors, peaceful, photography, plumage, pond, reflections, swim, swimming, texture, water, waterfowl, wildlife</media:keywords><media:rating scheme="urn:mpaa">g</media:rating></item></channel></rss>
