Meet the Purple-throated Fruitcrow!
Males gather in groups to perform elaborate displays, showing off that incredible purple throat to attract females. They're just one of over 1,300 bird species calling the Amazon home

Meet the pygmy hippo! 🦛
This adorable mini hippo is one of the rarest mammals in Africa. Found only in the forests of West Africa, they're much smaller than their common cousins, weighing just 180-275 kg!
There are fewer than 2,500 left in the wild!

Meet the Bali myna!
This white bird with a bright blue eye patch is Bali’s only endemic bird species, and one of the rarest on Earth. Once nearly extinct due to poaching for the pet trade, fewer than 100 individuals remain in the wild today.

Ever heard of a Binturong?
Also known as the “bearcat,” this shaggy, tree-dwelling mammal lives in the rainforests of Southeast Asia. And fun fact, they smell like buttered popcorn! 🍿
Found from India to the Philippines, it spends most of its life in the canopy

Have you ever heard of the Tomato Frog? 🐸
They are endemic to Madagascar, named for their very vivid red-orange coloration that resembles a ripe tomato.
And when threatened, they can puff up their bodies and even secrete a sticky toxin to deter predators.

Have you ever seen an oryx?
These are desert antelopes that look almost mythical! with long, straight horns and markings that seem hand-painted.
Adapted for extreme heat, oryx can survive without drinking water for days, getting moisture from the plants they eat.

Have you ever seen a Luna Moth in the wild?
I saw a few some years ago, mainly on field trips.
Crazy that only live 7-10 days as adults and do not eat, as they have no mouth!
These giants look like fairies, with wingspans up to 4.5 inches!

They are found mostly in Central and South America, with only the nine-banded armadillo reaching the US.

Can you spot what’s odd in this photo?
Those aren’t leaves.. they’re insects!
They can mimic living or decaying leaves so perfectly that even their legs and veins look botanical. Some species even sway like leaves in the wind to stay unnoticed.

Chameleons can move each eye independently, change color with mood, and launch their tongue twice their body length to snatch prey! How amazing are they?!
