Always enjoy the little things. Interesting fact, Chameleon eyes have a 360-degree arc of vision and can see two directions at once.👀

Once wild dogs reach maturity it is the females that leave the pack to seek out other breeding opportunities, while the males stay behind to form the nucleus of the pack.

Just a quick fun fact for the day. Did you know a giraffe can close its nostrils when it runs?🦒 Really handy to keep the dust out.

Lions usually sleep from 16 to 20 hours per day and are known as the King of the "Jungle", is that why it's called a life of royalty?

It doesn't get much better than this. The life of a leopard is pretty good. 👌

We spent a morning following this pride, how did you spend yours?

If you take a look at the back of the lions ears, you will see they are black. This helps them to follow each other when walking through the grass.

Also like a pet cat, lions have retractable claws. This means that their sharp claws can be stretched out and then drawn back inside again under the fur where they are hidden. ... Lions sharpen their claws by scratching trees to keep them extra pointy.

It's difficult to see the difference between a male and female wild dog, to give you a hint, the male is slightly bigger than the female.

Lions hunt at night not because their eyesight is better under low light conditions than that of their prey, but because with stealth they can probably approach their prey closer at night than during the day. https://t.co/rXMW7pVjsC

Hyena's have a bad rap thanks to Disney's The Lion King, but truly they are Africa's most successful predator. https://t.co/rXMW7pVjsC
