BLUE WHALE, one of the largest creatures ever known to roam the Earth and yet it dwarfs in size compared to its ancestors. Sadly, researchers have shown that these filter-feeding aquatic creatures only started to binge eat when climate changed. It is an advantage developed due to run-off nutrients from melting ice caps during certain times of the year.
It is crazy to think their diet really consist of tiny krills, and a day’s worth of them roughly weighs 4 tons. These heavy weight champs themselves weight about 200 tons, that is about 33 elephants! Even though they are at the top of the food chain, heavy whaling before 1966, ship injuries and toxins in the ocean are among the top causes of its’ threatened population on top of climate change.
I would hope to see their beauty one day and many generations after us too may have the honor. I dream to even just hear their whistle, which is can be heard hundreds of miles away.
This adorably freckled little bovine is called SAOLA, or Asian Unicorn, is a rarely seen creature since its discoveries two decades ago. It was then one of the first large mammal discovered in more than 50 years . None in captivity and only maybe few hundred or few dozen of them in the wild. Their horns can grow up to 20inches for both male and female. Cousins to cattle but most resemble an antelope.
Traps set up for crops or other animals can often accidental catch and harm these critically endangered creatures. Deforestation and habitat lost is of course another one of those reasons they are having a hard time surviving. They are only found in the mountains of Laos and Vietnam, which is already one of the most beautiful yet “endangered and significant” ecosystem on earth.
