Insane Man Nearly Killed By Lions While Hugging Them


This man is definitely insane with stronger desire to hug lions, the king of animals. From the almost end of the video, the man looked like nearly mauled by lions. Incredibly horrible, human should never try to become one of their own in the group of lions because we could be the meal of them rather than to become a friend with them. Life is precious, stop doing that!

Aussie Child Feeds Crocodile With Zoo Animals


Horrible shocking news in Sydney. A surveillance camera captured a young australian boy of 7 years old who broke into an animal centre and fed a crocodile which is 11-foot long with a range of native reptiles. The crime was only discovered the day after the night when the staff noticed more than dozen of animals were either missing or dead. As reported, the 13 animals killed are worth more than $5,000.

The camera footage showed the young culprit who broke into the Alice Springs Reptile Centre at night, killed a number of animals such as lizards, goannas and turtle and fed 440 pound crocodile with the animals. The young boy is too young (under age of 10) thus cannot be held legally responsible due to his act. Therefore, the only action the police had done was cautioned him and spoken to his mother about the incident. However, the zoo officials are planning to sue the parents.

Fortunately, the child was not eaten by the crocodile. However, how could the child at this age able to perform such a crime? Killing dozen of animals?? and feeding them to the carnivorous reptile?? Very weird case.

Aya Sugimoto Naked For Animal Rights In PETA


Naked for movie in the scene is fine for Aya Sugimoto, a japanese actress. Recently, she takes off her clothes again for animal!! It's for the animal protection regarding the fur. In the act, she holds a tiny sign "Fur? I'd rather go naked." during her posting for the first Japanese Campaigns by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA). She claimed that she has stopped buying or wearing any fur related products after she learned how the product is being produced since 2 years ago. According to yahoo news, PETA chose Sugimoto as the first Japanese model of its international anti-fur campaign as she has created a fake-fur fashion brand to protect the animal rights and protection. In the news, she stated that people can be very stylish without using fur.

I agree with her but is there a need to be naked for the campaign?

The Duck-Billed Platypus Is A Mammal But Lay Eggs


This is wonderful creation alike duck and beaver from God perhaps! Let's see how this small thing could attract and puzzle scientists for so many years.



The oddest australia creature on the planet which is known as platypus lays eggs like a bird, produces milk like a cow and releases snake-like venom from its ankles. There are only five mammals in the Earth which lay eggs. This duck-billed platypus is only one of among all of the five. They are excellent swimmers, but move cumbersomely and comically on land. It sounds funny isn't it?? Maybe it just looks like walking like a penguin in a different way.

This mammal has the tail of beaver, the webbed feet of otter and big bird-like beak/bill. Lately, the scientist has successfully decoded its DNA and confirmed that this species is sort of mixture of reptile, bird and mammal. Moreover, its milk and venom produced could even contribute for new drugs production as the milk contains antimicrobial chemicals which protect young from infection.

Sharks Fin Raises Global Concern



Recently, the hunt for the sharks is on the rise again after a few years of decline which has raised again the global concern after the controversy about whales in Japan. The predators of the oceans have become preys themselves.

Sharks!! The impressive creature which has been exaggerated as giant sea monster in the movie has gained a lot more of attention from all range of age. There are people who think that sharks should be killed as they could harm human being which i believe that is the misconception delivered in the movie where the heroes usually will kill the sea monster to safe their lives.

In natural, sharks seldom attack human. There is an article about over fishing of sharks is threatening scallop and other populations.



In chinese weddings, sharks fin dish is a must! Couples' parents consider the sharks fin soup or dish as a premium in the wedding dinner so they would not lose face. Some even described it as like a cake in a birthday celebration.

On the other hand, there are people who voiced out they don't want to be part of the cruel act of killing sharks just to make others satisfied on their own wedding day.

What do you think? Will you get rid of the sharks fin soup on you wedding day for the sake of the population of sharks in the lovely ocean to maintain the balance of the food chain?

Termite Caste: How Much Do You Know?



A brief explaination of termites. Very simple, a colony of this unique insect in a special caste system which contains King & Queen, Workers and soldier. Each of the caste plays a significant role in the colony.

King - To fertilize the Queen ( no other function)

Queen - To only lay eggs. But they tend for the first brood after the establishment of new colony before the worker and soldier could reach maturity stage.

Alates - Swarmer/winged alates to help in establishment of colony. They will eventually turn into king and queen after copulation.

Worker - To take care of the brood and also look for food source, build and repair the mud tubes.

Soldier - To defend against predators especially ants.

So, in short, never bully the termites. :p

Liquid Food Sharing Among Ants Is Called Trophallaxis


Trophallaxis is a unique process where worker ants share their liquid food among each other members in a same colony. The workflow is simple: Worker ants forage for food and store the liquid food in abdomen. Later, the worker ants will share the liquid food which is stored inside the crop of the abdomen to the members by mouth-to-mouth method just like kissing.

That's so amazing! A lot of social insects sharing liquid food by trophallaxis such as termites. However, termites and ants are different in terms of scientific classification, caste system and impacts of their damage to the environment and human.

So what happen to the solid food? Worker ants cannot store the solid stuff inside the abdomen. Thus, they will carry the solid food back to the nest and pass to the immature ants, larvae. Larvae will chew the food and regurgitate to worker ants to allow the trophallaxis to be proceeded.

Decapitating Flies Attacks Fire Ants

In South Amerika, there are at least 18 species of decapitating flies has been reported to attack fire ants! This discovery has led to further research by scientiest as to develop a natually biological control for fire ants.

The amazing process of the attack is ... Really amazing!! Don't lay eggs into my head..Please

1) Decapitating flies attack the fire ant worker and lay eggs into its head.



2) The larva will feed on internal issue of ant head.

3) The head of ant will be decapitated by the chemical released from the fly before it can emerge from the ant head. Thus, the head of ant will be broken up.



4) The adult fly will eventually emerge from the head of ant.

Termi-Mesh: Termite Barrier System


Termi-mesh? Made from marine grade stainless steel, with a small aperture that a termite cannot squeeze through. Termites also cannot chew through the material as well. The mesh has been proved of its high durability.

In short, this is a termite barrier system which is environmental friendly and as a prevention for the invasion of termites. However, this is not a solution to eliminate the existing termites infestation.

You may get the expert consultation here.

Pity for the dolphin in Japan! What a cruel slaughting the japanese fishermen have done to the innocent dolphins?

Rat Cries In Red Tears?


The pictures show the phenomenon of “red rat tears” after 36 hours neurosurgical procedure. The “red tears” was found around his eyes, nose, and medial forepaws as well. This condition is commonly called as Chromodacryorrhea.

The truth:
Porphyrin (red pigment chemical) secreted by the Harderian gland located behind the eye of a rat causes the red tears. Red crusts may develop around the eyes and nose, and even the forepaws from rubbing the face. As consequence of porphyrin overproduction; Chromodacryorrhea or Red Tear indicates stress, sickness, or poor diet.

Difference between blood and porphyrins:
Porphyrins will become fluorescent under ultraviolet light. However, the function of the Harderian porphyrin in rats is still poorly understood.

Rennee Cook owns this two-faced U.S born cat! It has been named as Double Trouble delivered in bedroom half-Persian, Amber.

Renee was shocked at first and she thought the cat has dead because it was cold. Surprisingly the cat is able to survive.

Why the deformed cat was born with two faces? So the heads also need to be fed? or just feed one of its head. But definitely the cat could see more views than other one head buddy.

Panic Discovery In Britain; 'Franken Fish' Is More Deadlier Than Piranha Was Caught


Pray hard that British Riverbank is not in trouble so soon! Why? It was started by the findings of one giant snakehead fish caught by Andy Alder in Lincolnshire.

The deadlier species whis has been named as "Franken Fish" has terrified appearance with its razor-sharp fearful teeth. The fish can eat anything it comes across including human. It has been reported that the "Franken Fish" is killing people!! It also can "crawl" on land and survive for 4 days out of the water!! Horrible, isn't it?

The recent discovery in UK has gained greater concern as the fish was banned from imported into UK and it is originated from south-east Asia. Thus, smuggling might be the only way of introducing the fish. Want to know how U.S. destroy the same fish in 2002? The entire lakes were poisoned purposely after shooting them at river banks before further chaos could be made by the fish.

How dramatic it is like screening the horror film. Imagine everyone is fighting so hard to survive from the attack of "Franken Fish" in an isolated jungle full of riverbanks??? I might be watching too many horror movies... :P But, seriously i will work at all cost to eliminate the horrible and deadly species if i ever found one of them. Destroy destroy, terminator is here!! Leave no lives for it..Don't tell me your are not afraid of the fish although it is just a fish!

Zoo Atlanta To Resume Mating Plan For Panda Lun Lun

Mei Lan, 17-month-old panda

Do you like Panda? Zoo Atlanta is now planning to resume the mating plan for mother of giant panda cub Mei Lan. Zookeepers hope the mother panda, Lun Lun to get ready for the mating plan as Mei Lan is old enough to be weaned.

Lun Lun is expected to pregnant again according to the plan by this spring. This will ensure by end of summer, Lun Lun could deliver a second giant panda cub to Zoo Atlanta.

Unfortunately the zoo vets will prepare for an artificial insemination as Lun Lun and her partner, Yang Yang, don't have a history of successful mating. That is how Mei Lan, 17-month-old now is actually conceived by Lun Lun in 2006.

So what should we concern to protect the endangered giant panda since it is so hard for them to get pregnant? It will be a great sorrow if there will not be any panda in the earth!!! Don't let it happens!!!
