Proboscis Monkey – One Big Nose


The boreal owl is a smallish, secretive owl found in high altitude forest zones and spruce fir forests. It has a long haunting song. It ranges across the northern border between the United States and Canada in selected spots and across Eurasia at the same latitude.


Descending from the same Felid ancestor as the lion, the serval, or the Tierboskat (as it’s known in Afrikaans, its name meaning “tiger forest cat”) is a medium-sized wild cat with a body length of about 23 to 36 inches (59 to 92 centimeters) and a body-weight between 15 and 40 lbs (7 to 18 kg).
