  • The Black Rhinoceros is highly endangered and listed on the IUCN Red List.  With a life span of 40-50 years black rhinos become sexually mature at 5 years with males claiming territories and mating at around the age of 12 years.  An extended time to recruitment, is one of the reasons these animals are critically endangered.  Poaching is the prime cause of danger to the rhino followed closely by habitat destruction

  • The Tasmanian Devil (Sarcophilus harrisii) is a nocturnal, carnivorous marsupial of the family Dasyuridae.  The devil can only be found in the wild in the Australian island state of Tasmania.  Devils are becoming increasingly uncommon and difficult to find, due to the spread of a cancer-like virus named Devil Tumour Disease.  The disease, which is spread via contact with other devils, causes large growths to develop around the facial area.  The cancerous growths eventually lead to the devil's death

  • Preening involves the kangaroo leaning back on its powerful tail and scratching itself with its front paws.  Also known as the Eastern Grey Kangaroo.

  • The cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus) is a large-sized feline (family Felidae) inhabiting most of Africa and parts of the Middle East. The cheetah is the only extant member of the genus Acinonyx, most notable for modifications in the species' paws. As such, it is the only felid with non-retractable claws and pads that, by their scope, disallow gripping (therefore cheetahs cannot climb vertical trees, although they are generally capable of reaching easily accessible branches). ..The cheetah, however, achieves by far the fastest land speed of any living animal—between 112 and 120 km/h (70 and 75 mph)[3][4]  in short bursts covering distances up to 500 m (1,600 ft), and has the ability to accelerate from 0 to over 100 km/h (62 mph) in three seconds
