It is interesting fact that coati’s males used to live in solo without creating groups or shoals, opposite to females which are incline to gather into huge groups up to 50 individuals. Who knows what for? Gossip? Sure, they are women)

These groups of females called bands ) They have long muzzles, brown fur and strange ringed furry tail in spite of their habitat mostly in a tropic rain forests. Because of their body building as well as thanks to tail, coati are brilliant tree climbers and what is more interesting they are able to climb down tree (is what cats unable to perform)

Believe it or not, taking into account their impressive teeth, coati’s light diet includes only fruits, worms and vegetables! May be that is exactly a reason of their teeth’s healthy looking )

Have you ever seen a chinchilla? Have you ever seen a coat made from it? Just imagine, a minute ago it was fluffy, small and kind creature and just in a nick of time it turned into a pelt, valuable and warm, but still a pelt! Five minutes ago this chin was breathing, coughing, eating, and playing with its toys and then… I hate it!

So, my main aim here is not only to tell you about chinchillas, but to draw your attention to their lives and dangers around them! Pay attention, they need our help! Actually, their history in America started exactly from poaching, they were chased because of beautiful fur and only after some years they became popular as pets. Uninteresting fact! Approximately 100 chinchillas are needed to make one coat. In the 19th century (China) they became even endangered. Nowadays, chinchilla’ hunting is prohibited by law! But it doesn’t stop some people from killing these animals!

Chinchillas are very popular nowadays, they live both in Zoos, stores and even at homes! But there are some strangers, they still don’t know, how do chinchillas look! It is a tricky question, I can give a lot of descriptions, but than you will be puzzled, so, one, but all-absorbing: chinchillas are cute creatures familiar to big squirrels with huge ears (like Cheburashkas).

Chinchilla! This name is of Indian origin and can be interpreted as “little chinta”. These creatures came to us from South America and they are widespread in Peru, Bolivia, and Chile. Thanks to Mr. Chapman they appeared in our lives, namely he brought them to our continent. Firstly, they were sold to fur farms and later they became popular pets. They turned to be loving, devoted and kind pets. Chins are very neat and clean pets; they don’t have any specific smell. They can talk, but their sounds are amazing, while eating, sleeping, chewing something. One more interesting fact – chinchillas are night creatures, they spend the whole day at rest (I mean they sleep), but they are awake at night. So, you can visit discos with your favorite pet! He or she will not fall asleep! Also, if you don’t want to have a long-term friend – forget about chinchillas! They live up to 20 years! Chinchillas adore company and they hate loud noises, don’t even dare shouting on them, they will get upset and, as a result, your chinchilla will become quiet and passive. Their popularity rises every day. In our country chinchillas cost more than 400 dollars.

Of course, there are some people, who do care about them, but those chinchillas, who live in Zoos and other enclosures are completely different form wild chinchillas living in natural conditions. There they prefer caves and rock clefts.

As for me, I have a get and a dog! I adore them! They are so funny! I have never had a rat, a hamster oк a chinchilla, but I was always dream to. May be one day I will get one and now I can only admire with their owners and look at their pictures!

Penguins are one of the most well-known animals in the world. This is little funny bird. They are birds because they lay eggs, have feathers, and are warm-blooded animals. Most birds fly, but penguins do not fly. They use their flippers for swimming. Penguins are found in many different habitats, or places. They live from the frozen land of Antarctica to the sandy beaches of Africa. They live from the rocky coasts of South America to the coasts of New Zealand. Penguins have adapted to more habitats and climates than any other animal in the world. Penguins have long, flat flippers that help them swim and dive for fish, squid, and krill. They have very short legs that are set far back on their lower body. They stand upright and waddle when they walk.

Penguins are amazing swimmers. When penguins float they use their flippers to paddle through the water. When they dive and swim they use their flippers to fly through the water. They use their flippers for swimming like other birds use their wings for flying. Most penguins can dive very deep and can hold their breath for many minutes. They have large round eyes that help them to see in the dark water. Penguins can swim up to hundreds of miles in search of food. Penguins move over land by walking, jumping and sliding. Penguins that live on the ice can slide or go tobogganing on their bellies down hills and slopes. They lay down and push off with their flippers and slide across the ice. Penguins are also good jumpers. They can jump the height and width of their own bodies. They often hop or jump over rocks or holes.

There are 17 especes of penguins: Emperor, King, Rockhoppers, Gentoo, Magellanic, Galapagos, Adelie, African, Little, Royal, Yellow-eyed, Snares, Chinstrap, Humboldt, Macroni, Fiordland, Erect-crested.
