Slide 3

The blobfish lives in deep water off the coast of Tasmania and Australia. The pressure at such depths is so great that the blob fish is saved only by the gel-like composition of the body, which has a lower density than water. This composition helps this fish, about 65 cm long, to swim with low energy consumption. Due to the blob fish's lack of muscles, it has to feed on living creatures that swim past it. It also lacks a swim bladder, due to its non-functionality at the depths at which this fish lives.

Slide 4

Yeti crab

Slide 5

The yeti crab, or fluffy kiva, was discovered relatively recently near Easter Island near the outlet of thermal waters. Because of the significant differences between the crab found and other known crustaceans, scientists created a separate family for this animal, Kiwaidae. The yeti crab has strange "hairy" claws.

Slide 6

Octopus Dumbo

Slide 7

The octopus Dambooctopus lives in the Tasmanian Sea at a depth of about 400 meters. This octopus is no more than 10 cm in size. Its distinctive feature is a pair of long, flat fins that look like ears. Hence the name of this animal “Dumbo” (Dumbo the elephant). The individual tentacles of an octopus are connected to each other by a flexible membrane - the umbrella. It, with the assistance of fins, is the driving force of the animal.

Slide 8

Sea Dragon

Slide 9

The leafy sea dragon, or ragdragon, looks like a strange seahorse. It lives in the coastal waters of Australia, in shallow waters. The processes all over the sea dragon's body create an ideal camouflage for it. In this case, the outgrowths are not fins. The rag picker, with its unusual appearance, has earned the honor of being the official emblem of the state of South Australia.

Slide 10

Leaf-like gecko

Slide 11

The leaf-like gecko camouflages itself, as its name suggests, under the foliage of trees. This unusual lizard lives in the forests of Madagascar. Leaf-like geckos became known about 230 years ago, and in 2004 the WWF (World Wildlife Fund) listed them as Most Endangered. Due to their interesting appearance, they have become desirable pets for people, so they are caught in large quantities for sale.

Slide 12

Peacock grasshopper

Slide 13

The peacock grasshopper is a bizarre insect. This relatively large grasshopper employs two defensive tactics. Mostly it disguises itself as a dry leaf, but when it is noticed, it spreads its colored wings, the pattern on which imitates huge eyes. This defense tactic misleads the enemy and often saves the grasshopper’s life.

Slide 14

Tiger ant

Slide 15

The tiger ant not only has an unusual coloring, similar to a tiger, but also has a huge size for ants (3 cm). Moreover, he is the most primitive ant in the world. These insects were found in Papua New Guinea in 2009, so this species has not yet been studied much. Who knows, maybe they will surprise the whole world.

Slide 16

Maned wolf

Slide 17

The maned wolf looks similar to a fox, but the relationship with them has been refuted by scientists. The maned wolf with its long thin limbs looks a little strange. This feature is believed to be related to the habitat. These wolves live on plains with tall grass, and this length of limbs helps them rise above the plants and survey the area.

Presentation “Amazing Animals”

Chameleon - unique animal. He is able to change color. Few Togo: One side of a chameleon might be bright red, for example, and the other green. By changing color, the chameleon merges with surrounding objects and becomes invisible.

A chameleon can jump from branch to branch. It moves awkwardly on the ground, legs spread wide and leaning on its tail. In water he is unable to move, but does not drown.

If angry or alarmed, the chameleon will very quickly "repainted". His skin turns black animal inflates, grows to twice its normal size, hisses like a snake and shows a bright red mouth.

Chameleons can "dance". On the ground or on a branch, the chameleon first freezes motionless, rotating only its eyes. He then slowly lifts one front leg and the opposite hind leg and rocks back and forth rhythmically. Having stepped once, he again freezes in place, raising the second pair of legs and repeats everything again. At the same time, he continuously rotates his eyes - back, forward, up, down. Scientists think that this is how chameleons communicate with each other.

Some people are compared to chameleons. They say: Changes like a chameleon. This means that a person can change beyond recognition depending on the situation.

Toucan - amazingly beautiful bird, lives in America, both North and South (Mexico, Argentina, Chile, USA).

The toucan usually lives in one place, without making large flights. Toucans live in tree hollows.

The main feature of the toucan is its massive, brightly colored beak, with which toucans peel fruit. Toucans feed on berries, fruits, seeds, sometimes insects and eggs of small birds. The colors of the beaks are not repeated, so birds can recognize each other in the flock by their beaks.

Interestingly, the toucan is a relative of the woodpecker. Toucans got their name due to the specific sounds they make. publish: knock-can, knock-can.

In nature, the enemies of toucans are boa constrictors and birds of prey.

Underwater chameleons and seahorses are excellent at playing hide and seek and master the art of camouflage to perfection.

Unlike other inhabitants of the oceans and seas, seahorses swim upright and in pairs, often with their tails tied.

Seahorses eat constantly. They feed on small fish or plankton.

Interestingly, both eyes of skates can look in different directions, studying the environment.

This fish is also called a dragon, since many species really resemble this fairy-tale character

These animals are very similar to small bears.

Koalas practically do not drink water. The fact is that all the moisture necessary for their life is contained in eucalyptus, which is the main food of the koala.

An adult koala weighs about 10 kilograms, and its height ranges from 60-80 centimeters.

Koala fingerprints are very similar to human fingerprints.

The koala sleeps 18 hours a day.

In the wild, koalas live on average 12-13 years, and in a seine they can live up to 18-20 years.

Koalas live on only one continent - Australia.

Slide 2

Fish with red lips
Fish with red lips, or in English Rosy-Lipped Batfish. These fish live off the coast of Costa Rica. The interesting thing is that they do not know how to swim, this fish simply walks along the bottom of the sea and with its red lips attracts small fish and shellfish, which swim with interest in the red color, after which something like a fishing rod pops up in the hole of the nose of this fish, with which he grabs his victim.

Slide 3

Chinese giant salamander
Chinese giant salamander. These salamanders live in mountain streams and lakes of Eastern China. These salamanders are considered an endangered species due to their use in Chinese medicine and they are also considered a delicacy in China. The length of the salamander is 180 cm. Many say that they live up to 150 years, although the maximum recorded age of the salamander was only 55 years, and their maximum weight can reach 180 kg.

Slide 4

Yeti crab
The Yeti crab was discovered in 2005 by a group of scientists who found it at a depth of more than 2 km. near the outlet of thermal waters. Many people think that they look like they are made of wool, but this is not so, their wool is thickly growing long bristles with the help of which the crab receives various information.

Slide 5

Viper fish
Another amazing creation of nature is the viper fish. It got its name because of its appearance - a terrible head with very large teeth, even in the Guinness Book of Records it was listed as the largest teeth compared to the size of the head. Its length reaches 35 cm, and they live at a depth of up to 2 km. They feed once every one or two weeks on small squid, shrimp and fish. The viper fish lives for about 40 years and sometimes becomes prey for sharks.

Slide 6

Axolotl
The first incredible animal can be called the axolotl. It lives in several lakes in Mexico. The body length of the axolotl is 15-25 cm. The adult form of the axolotl, during the process of metamorphosis, loses its external gills and begins to breathe using the lungs and through the skin. Translated from the Aztec language, axolotl means “water toy,” which is not surprising from its appearance.

Slide 7

Aye-aye or Madagascar little hand
Aye-aye is an amazing animal, which is considered the only representative of the family of arms. The body length of the aye-aye reaches 40 cm, and its tail is 60 cm. They live in the forests in the East of the island of Madagascar. These animals feed on mango fruits, beetles, larvae and the core of bamboo or reed. Aye-ayes are considered a very rare species, which is listed in the Red Book. There are no more than 50 individuals left on the Earth of Madagascar bats.

Slide 8

Blob fish
Drop fish. This fish lives at a depth of 800 meters and feeds there on various mollusks and crustaceans. The peculiarity of the fish is that it incubates its eggs until the fry hatch from them. The length of the drop fish can reach 70 cm, and its weight is about 10 kg. What kind of animal: fish, scientific name Psychrolutes marcidus. Habitat: lives in the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian Oceans, found in deep waters (about 2800 m) of the coast of Australia and Tasmania. Special features: Drop fish live at depths where the pressure is several tens of times higher than at sea level, and in order to maintain viability, the body of the drop fish consists of a gel-like mass with a density slightly less than water; this allows fish to swim above the seabed without expending energy to swim. Dimensions: Maximum body length is about 65 cm.

Slide 9

Giant isopod
Isopods can reach a size of more than 40 cm in length and they live at a depth of 1600 meters. The largest recorded isopod was 76 cm in length and weighed 1.7 kg. The body of isopods is covered with hard plates. They feed mainly on the carcasses of dead fish that have sunk to the seabed. Due to the fact that it is not always possible to obtain carcasses of dead fish, therefore isopods are adapted to starvation and go without food for more than two months.

Slide 10

Angora rabbit
The Angora rabbit is considered one of the oldest breeds of rabbits bred in Turkey, which is where their name Angora came from, because Angora used to be the capital of Turkey. First of all, these animals are valued for their fur, which is obtained through their haircut. The weight of this rabbit reaches 6 kg, and they live no more than 7 years. They are also very often kept as pets because they are very active and love to play. There are 4 breeds of such rabbits: French, Angora, German and Satin.

Slide 11

Herring king
Last on the list of the most unusual animals on the planet is the herring king. The herring king is also called the belt fish because of its very large length, which reaches more than 6 meters, and there have been cases of catching this fish with a length of 11 meters. The herring king lives in the warm waters of the Pacific, Indian and Atlantic oceans. The weight of the fish can exceed 250 kg. The width of the herring king with its large length becomes only 5 cm.

Slide 12

Japanese giant salamander.
Today, it is the largest amphibian, which can reach 160 cm in length, weigh up to 180 kg and can live up to 150 years, although the officially recorded maximum age of the giant salamander is 55 years.

Slide 13

Bearded pig.
In different sources, the Bearded Pig species is divided into two or three subspecies. These are the curly bearded pig (Sus barbatus oi), which lives on the Malay Peninsula and the island of Sumatra, the Bornean bearded pig (Sus barbatus) and the Palawan bearded pig, which live, as the name suggests, on the islands of Borneo and Palawan, as well as on Java, Kalimantan and the small islands of the Indonesian archipelago in Southeast Asia.

Slide 14

Slithertooth.
A mammal from the order of insectivores, divided into two main species: the Cuban slittooth and the Haitian. The animal is relatively large compared to other types of insectivores: its length is 32 centimeters, its tail is on average 25 cm, the weight of the animal is about 1 kilogram, and its body is dense.

Slide 15

Sumatran rhinoceroses.
They belong to the odd-toed ungulates of the rhinoceros family. This type of rhinoceros is the smallest of the entire family. The body length of an adult Sumatran rhinoceros can reach 200 - 280 cm, and the height at the withers can vary from 100 to 150 cm. Such rhinoceroses can weigh up to 1000 kg.

Slide 16

Galago.
Its large fluffy tail is clearly comparable to that of a squirrel. And his charming face and graceful movements, flexibility and insinuation, clearly reflect his cat-like traits. The amazing jumping ability, mobility, strength and incredible dexterity of this animal clearly show its nature as a funny cat and an elusive squirrel. Of course, there would be a place to use your talents, because a cramped cage is very poorly suited for this. But, if you give this animal a little freedom and sometimes allow him to walk around the apartment, then all his quirks and talents will come true. Many even compare it to a kangaroo.

Slide 17

Tasmanian devil.
Being the largest of modern predatory marsupials, this black animal with white spots on the chest and rump, with a huge mouth and sharp teeth has a dense physique and a stern disposition, for which, in fact, it was called the devil. Emitting ominous screams at night, the massive and clumsy Tasmanian devil looks like a small bear: the front legs are slightly longer than the hind legs, the head is large, and the muzzle is blunt.

Slide 18

Fossa.
The island of Madagascar has preserved animals that are not found not only in Africa itself, but also in the rest of the world. One of the rarest animals is the Fossa - the only representative of the genus Cryptoprocta and the largest predatory mammal living on the island of Madagascar. The appearance of the Fossa is a little unusual: it is a cross between a civet and a small puma. Sometimes the fossa is also called the Madagascar lion, since the ancestors of this animal were much larger and reached the size of a lion. Fossa has a squat, massive and slightly elongated body, the length of which can reach up to 80 cm (on average it is 65–70 cm). The fossa's paws are long, but quite thick, with the hind paws being higher than the front paws. The tail is often equal to the length of the body and reaches up to 65 cm.

Slide 19

Lilac frog.
Some animals have managed to adapt to these, at first glance, very difficult conditions and have even learned to benefit from the changing seasons. So the indigenous Indian purple frog (Nasikabatrachus sahyadrensis), which as a species was discovered quite recently - in 2003, uses the monsoon time to its advantage - to continue its kind.

Slide 20

Star-nosed.
An insectivorous mammal of the mole family. Externally, the starfish differs from other members of the family and from other small animals only in its characteristic stigma structure in the form of a rosette or star of 22 soft, fleshy, mobile bare rays. In size, spade-shaped forelimbs, thick velvety fur (black or dark brown) it is similar to the European mole.

Slide 21

Belttail.
The habitat of belted tails extends to the rocky regions of Africa, which have an arid climate, mainly on the southern side of the Sahara Desert. In addition, belted tails live in certain numbers on the island of Madagascar. There are more than forty species of belttails in the world. The sizes of belt-tails vary quite widely and range from 12 to 70 centimeters in length. The entire body of the belt-tail is covered with rectangular plates - scales, which cover the bony base of the reptile.

Slide 22

Palm thief.
Representative of decapod crustaceans. Its habitat is the western Pacific Ocean and the tropical islands of the Indian Ocean. This animal from the family of land crayfish is quite large for its species. The body of an adult reaches a size of up to 32 cm and a weight of up to 3-4 kg. For a long time it was mistakenly believed that with its claws it could even crack coconuts, which it then eats. To date, scientists have proven that crayfish can only feed on already split coconuts. They, being its main source of nutrition, gave the name palm thief. Although he is not averse to eating other types of food - the fruits of Pandanus plants, organic substances from the soil, and even his own kind.

Slide 23

Tarsier.
A small mammal from the order of primates, the very specific appearance of which created a somewhat ominous aura around this small animal weighing up to one hundred and sixty grams. Thus, the indigenous population of Indonesia and the Philippine Islands associated the absurd appearance of the tarsier with the tricks of evil spirits. However, many of our contemporaries, who see the tarsier for the first time in its native habitat, remain amazed by its non-standard appearance.

Slide 24

Imperial scorpion
The imperial scorpion is 8 inches long. He is one of the largest scorpions in the world. It was first found in Ghana during a study in 2006.

Slide 25

Fruit bat
This fruit bat was found in 1999 in New Guinea.

Slide 26

Slide 34

Malayan bear, or biruang, or Sun Bear
The smallest and most pugnacious of all existing bears... In general, a brawler! Mammal of the bear family. Habitat: From northeast India and southern China through Myanmar, Thailand, the Indochina and Malacca peninsulas to Indonesia. Special features: Stocky, strong animal with a short and wide muzzle. The ears are short and rounded. The limbs are high with disproportionately large paws; the claws are very large, curved. Feet are bare. The fangs are small. The biruang's fur is short, stiff and smooth. The color is black, on the face it turns into roan-yellow. On the chest there is usually a large whitish or red spot in the shape of a horseshoe, reminiscent in shape and color of the rising sun. A nocturnal animal, it often sleeps all day or sunbathes in the branches of trees, where it builds a kind of nest for itself. Dimensions: The smallest representative of the bear family: it does not exceed 1.5 m in length (plus a 3-7 cm tail), height at the withers is only 50-70 cm; weight 27-65 kg. By the way: Biruangs are one of the rarest species of bears.

Slide 35

Commander
The Hungarian Shepherd is a breed of dog. Habitat: everywhere. Special features: When keeping a Komondor, special care is required for its coat, the length of which can reach almost a meter. It cannot be combed, but as it grows, the formed strands must be separated so that the hair does not fall off. Dimensions: This “king of the Hungarian Shepherds” is one of the largest dogs in the world, the height at the withers of males is more than 80 cm, and the long white hair, curled into original laces, makes the dog even more massive and impressive. By the way: Feeding this huge dog is not particularly difficult. Like any herding dog, they are very unpretentious and eat very little, a little more than 1 kg of food per day.
