The flame bowerbird is endemic to the rainforests of New Guinea. Shown above are the brightly colored males who build bowers and perform courtship displays to attract females.
Yes! @thegreenwolf is correct. Jaguars do like to swim and will often willingly hunt in water (there’s some kick-ass videos of them ambushing crocodiles from the bank of the river, you can check out).
This looks probably like the jaguar is diving for some sort of enrichment – maybe frozen fish or a bone – and chewing it on the way back up. It’s a great way to encourage captive cats to utilize natural behaviors and get some exercise by having them swim to get high value items.
Migaloo is a white adult male humpback whale, estimated to have been born in 1986. He was first spotted in 1991 passing through Byron Bay, New South Wales. Migaloo has been given extra protection due to his uniqueness; under government legislation, any vessel will be fined $16,500 if it comes within 500 meters of the white whale. (x)
It was thought that Migaloo was the only white whale in existence, but then an all-white humpback calf was spotted in 2011. In 2018, another white calf was seen swimming with its mother off the coast of New South Wales (seen below). Scientists theorize that Migaloo may be breeding, but more genetic testing is needed to confirm he’s the white calf’s father.
