American crocodile

American crocodile

American crocodile is crocodile who found in America . It can grow 4.8 meters long and sometimes males grow 6.1 meters long. It has strong jaws . It eats crabs and cattle etc.

Taxonomy and etymology

The species was redescribed as Crocodylus floridanus by William T. Hornaday in 1875, when Hornaday and C.E. Jackson were sent from Washington, DC to Florida to collect alligator hides. Upon hearing of a "big old gator" in Arch Creek at the head of Biscayne Bay, Hornaday and his companions searched for it and reported:

Distribution and habitat

American crocodiles have recently been sighted in Grand Cayman, leading experts to believe the species may be swimming from Cuba (which is home to a massive American crocodile population) and slowly repopulating Grand Cayman. In addition, an American crocodile/Cuban crocodile hybrid was recently discovered in the Cancun area.

Biology and behavior

American crocodiles, however, have a faster growth rate than alligators, and are much more tolerant of salt water.

Cleaning symbiosis involving the American crocodile as client has been described. Unlike the Old World crocodiles which are sometimes cleared of parasites by birds, the American crocodile relies more on fish for parasite removal.

Indian leopard

Indian leopard

Indian leopard is a big cat eat find in India at Mumbai . It can grow 4 feet long.It has sharp canine and jaws. It is a big cat.

Ecology 

In Nepal's Bardia National Park, home ranges of male leopards comprised about 48 km² (19 sq mi), and of females about 17 km² (6.6 sq mi); female home ranges decreased to 5 to 7 km² (1.9 to 2.7 sq mi) when they had young cubs.

In Sariska National Park, the diet of Indian leopards includes axis deer, sambar deer, nilgai, wild pig, common langur, hare and peafowl.

Distribution and habitat

In the east, the lower course of the Brahmaputra and the Ganges Delta form natural barriers to the distribution of the Indochinese leopard. Indian leopards are distributed all over India, in Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and parts ofPakistan. In the Himalayas they are sympatric with snow leopards up to 5,200 metres (17,100 ft) above sea level. They inhabit tropical rain forests, dry deciduous forests, temperate forests and northern coniferous forests but do not occur in the mangrove forests of the Sundarbans.

Conservation

Despite India and Nepal being contracting parties to CITES, national legislation of both countries does not incorporate and address the spirit and concerns of CITES. Trained human resources, basic facilities and effective networks for control of poaching and trade in wildlife are lacking.

Electric Eel

Electric Eel

Electric Eel is the most dangerous fish in Amazon.Electric Eel can light 12 bulbs by his electricity. It can kill a baby caiman. It catch fishes and eat them from it's electricity about 600 volts.  It is not a eel infact it is catfish.It is a apex and it can grow 2 m long. It can kill a human being.

Ecology and life history

The electric eel is known for its unusual breeding behavior. In the dry season, a male eel makes a nest from his saliva into which the female lays her eggs. As many as 3,000 young will hatch from the eggs in one nest. Male electric eels are much smaller than the females.

Anatomy

Mature males have a darker color on the belly. They have no scales. The mouth is square, and positioned at the end of the snout. The anal fin extends the length of the body to the tip of the tail. As in other ostariophysan fishes, the swim bladder has two chambers.

Physiology

The electric eel is unique among the Gymnotiformes in having large electric organs capable of producing potentially-lethal discharges that allow them to stun prey.^[4]Larger voltages have been reported, but the typical output is sufficient to stun or deter virtually any animal. Juveniles produce smaller voltages (about 100 V). They are capable of varying the intensity of the electrical discharge, using lower discharges for "hunting" and higher intensities for stunning prey, or defending themselves. When agitated, they are capable of producing these intermittent electrical shocks over a period of at least an hour without signs of fatigue.

Russell viper

Russell viper

Russell viper is the most deadly snake in India. It has venom of  hemolithic toxin . It's total length is 124 centimeters. It eats scorpion and mice and other small mammals.

Geographic range

Brown (1973) mentions that it can also found in Vietnam, Laos and on the Indonesian island of Sumatra. Ditmars (1937) reportedly received a specimen from Sumatra as well.However, the distribution of this species in the Indonesian archipelago is still being elucidated.

Habitat

This species is often found in highly urbanized areas and settlements in the countryside, the attraction being the rodents commensal with man. As a result, those working outside in these areas are most at risk of being bitten. It should be noted, however, that D. russelii does not associate as closely with human habitation as Naja and Bungarus (cobras and kraits).

Behavior

When threatened they form a series of S-loops, raise the first third of the body and produce a hiss that is supposedly louder than that of any other snake. When striking from this position, they can exert so much force that even a large individual can lift most of its body off the ground in the process.^[5] These snakes are strong and may react violently to being picked up. The bite may be a snap, or they may hang on for many seconds.

Swift

Swift

Swift is a bird who is the world's 2nd fastest animal in term of flight after cheetah and before peregrine falcon. It can flight up to 169 km/h.It eats insect and have enemies like Eurasian hobby.

Taxonomy

The taxonomy of the swifts is in general complicated, with genus and species boundaries widely disputed, especially amongst the swiftlets. Analysis of behavior and vocalizations is complicated by common parallel evolution, while analyses of different morphological traits and of various DNA sequences have yielded equivocal and partly contradictory results.

Distribution and habitat

Many have a characteristic shape, with a short forked tail and very long swept-back wings that resemble a crescent or a boomerang. The flight of some species is characterised by a distinctive "flicking" action quite different from swallows.

Behavior

Swifts as a family have smaller egg clutches and much longer and more variable incubation and fledging times than passerines with similarly sized eggs, resembling tubenoses in these developmental factors. Young birds reach a maximum weight heavier than their parents; they can cope with not being fed for long periods of time, and delay their feather growth when undernourished. Swifts and seabirds have generally secure nest sites, but their food sources are unreliable, whereas passerines are vulnerable in the nest but food is usually plentiful

Southern elephant seal

Southern elephant seal

Southern elephant seal  is the world's largest carnivore in the world . Southern elephant seal makes the largest migration of mammals. It is longer than human beings. They are aggressive fighter.

Range and population

The largest subpopulation is in the South Atlantic, with more than 400,000 individuals, including about 113,000 breeding females on South Georgia; the other breeding colonies of the Atlantic subpopulation are located on theFalkland Islands and Valdes Peninsula in Argentina (the only continental breeding population).

Feeding and diving

In the ocean, the seals apparently live alone. Most females dive in pelagic zones for foraging, while males dive in both pelagic and benthic zones. Individuals will return annually to the same hunting areas. Due to the inaccessibility of their deep-water foraging areas, no comprehensive information has been obtained about their dietary preferences, although some observation of hunting behavior and prey selection has occurred.

While hunting in the dark depths, elephant seals seem to locate their prey, at least in part, using vision; thebioluminescence of some prey animals can facilitate their capture. Elephant seals do not have a developed system of echolocation in the manner of cetaceans, but their vibrissae (facial whiskers), which are sensitive to vibrations, are assumed to play a role in search of food. When at the subantarctic or Antarctic coasts, the seals can also consume molluscs, crustaceans, nothothens.

Conservation

The reasons for this are unclear, but are thought to be related to the distribution and declining levels of the seals' primary food sources.Most of their most important breeding sites are now protected by international treaty, asUNESCO World Heritage Sites, or by national legislation.
