Wild Animals

Mother tigress avoids danger and frequently moves her young by carrying them in her mouth. Tigers often have several dens and move from one to another as needed. To give birth, the tigress isolates herself out of sight. Babies are born blind and weigh almost a kilo on average. They are very vulnerable but can count on the protection of their mother who will later teach them how to hunt.

The Papo wild boar is the youngest of the sow and the boar. Unlike adults, it has a coat with dark stripes, preceding the red beast stage around 6 months when it becomes more independent. He is born perfectly alert, with his eyes open and happy to be able to follow his mother on her travels from the end of their first week.

The Papo Spoonbill is a bird whose characteristic is to have a long, flat, black beak in the shape of a spatula or spoon widened at its end. Its beak allows it to stir the mud and filter the water to keep only what it likes. Its body has a white plumage which contrasts with the black color of its beak and its thin long legs.

The stag beetle is the largest beetle in Europe! The males are easily recognized by their spectacular antler-shaped mandibles, which are the origin of the term "kite". After spending nearly a year underground as a larva, its life expectancy is only about 2 months.

Out of the water, the Papo beaver stands on its hind legs, which are large and wide with powerful claws but also webbing for swimming quickly. Its small front paws, also clawed, have very nimble fingers for digging. On the lookout, it leans on its paddle, a large flattened tail that serves as a fin, rudder and pendulum in the water. An excellent swimmer, he is always ready to dive.

The ant is a small wingless social insect, living in colonies in anthills

The Swallowtail or Great Swallowtail is a species of butterfly from the Papilionidae family, present in most temperate regions of the northern hemisphere.

After a management of about 4 months, the lioness can give birth to up to 4 cubs which, during the first days of their life, will be blind and therefore entirely dependent on their mother. Until the age of 4 weeks they will be kept away from the group and will feed only on their mother's milk. After that they will mingle with the rest of the group.

Cub Papo finally came out of his den where he was protected from predators by his mother, the wolf. Fragile, he is born deaf and blind. He can now play with his brothers and sisters or imitate his mother to learn how to hunt and eat by catching small animals such as rodents. His brown coat looks more and more like that of his father the wolf.

The robin is a passerine species. It looks like a small plump bird with relatively short wings reaching painfully to the middle of its tail
