Panther/Black Leopard

black leopard pantherThe Panther (Leopard) is the smallest of the four ‘big cats’—following tiger, lion and jaguar. This is probably one of the most aggressive animals and most feared in the world. Panther is very rarely seen in the wild, this is because it is always hidden the population is very small. Its ability to hide in the shadows of woods and forests make it a highly effective predator. A Black Panther is a melano leopard and, while it has black spots (like a regular leopard), these are usually hidden by the black background but can be seen on certain light angles (also called ‘ghost striping’).

Leopards are from the East and South Asia and Africa, the leopard populations are now confined to sub-Saharan Africa, with fragmented populations across India, Pakistan, Indochina, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, Indonesia, China and into Tibet.

There are four types of big cats in the Panthera genus. Three others, including tigers, lions and panthers. The Leopard/panther has relatively short legs in terms of other members of the family of big cats, as well as a long body and large skull. Similar in appearance to the jaguar, it is smaller and has a slighter build.

Leopards are powerful climbers, even capable of carrying the weight of their prey up atree, and it is well known for its stealth capabilities. It is no wonder that these big cats have survived in the wild. Leopards have an average life span of 12 years in the wild. But they can live up to 20 years in captivity. Leopards are able to adapt to both warm and cold climates, where they are usually found in areas containing dense bushes with rocky environment, beside a forest stream. This adaptation by a leopards has led to their tenacious survival despite their habitats being destroyed by expanding settlements. Nocturnal by nature, leopards rest in trees or thick bush during the day.

Cheetah


The cheetah is one of the big wild cats. The cheetah is the fastest animal in the world, taking only 3 seconds to go from 0 to 60 miles (96 kilometers) per hour.

Even at high speeds, the cheetah is nimble and can make quick and sudden turns in pursuit of prey, using its tail for control.

cheetah Cheetahs are known as the most efficient predators in the wild. Cheetah approach prey slowly with its spotted fur camouflaging it among the savannah bushes. When the prey is within range the cheetah will chase and pounce quickly. This animal is quite smart with its ability to detect the weakest animals. The cheetah will need to end his hunt quickly because it is a sprinter, not an endurance runner. But the speed at which the cheetah runs down its prey usually results in the prey tipping over and falling, which leaves its throat vulnerable for the cheetah’s killing bite. Cheetah hunts last usually less than a minute.

Cheetah have a short and coarse yellow fur with round black spots measuring 2-3 cm. The coat is a very effective camouflage when the cheetah is hunting.

Cheetahs have a small head with high eyes. They have a pattern of "black tears" from the inner corner of each eye down the side of the nose to the mouth to keep sunlight out of the eyes and to assist in hunting and seeing long distances.

Cheetah females usually have a litter of three kittens and live with them for one and a half to two years. Young ones spend the first year learning from their mothers and practicing the techniques of hunting through playing games. Male cheetahs live alone or in small groups, often with their littermates.

Most wild cheetahs are found in Eastern and Southwestern Africa. Perhaps only 7,000 to 10,000 of these big cats remain, and those are under pressure as the wide-open grasslands they favor are disappearing at the hands of human settlers.cheetah

Pembroke Welsh Corgi

pembroke welsh corgi

Pembroke Welsh Corgi originated from South West Wales. It is believed that the ancestors of the Pembroke Welsh Corgi were brought into Wales by the Flemish Weavers in the 10th century. The 'Pem' (as the Pembroke Welsh Corgi is affectionately known) is one of the two types of Welsh Corgi, the other one being the Cardigan Welsh Corgi, believed to have come from the same ancestor with the Dachhunds. It is also believed that the Pembroke Welsh Corgi shares the same ancestry as the progenitor of the Keeshond, Pomeranian, Schipperke and Swedish Vallhund.
Welsh Corgis (also translated in Welsh as "dwarf dogs") were used as farm guardians, and eventually became sheep and cattle herders—a role they still play to this day. Today, owing to their intelligence and sociable instinct, Welsh Corgis primarily act as companion dogs. Ask the Queen of England—she has 16 Pembrokes. Welsh Corgi's Appearance Pembroke Welsh Corgi dogs are long bodied, with short legs, large erect ears (with a head like a fox's) and no tail (due to being naturally docked or docked at an early age). Eye color generally depends on coat color. If a Pem has light coat color, the eye color is rather bright and vice versa. Welsh Corgi's Temperament Pembroke Welsh Corgi are famous for their barking, so these dogs are very suitable for use as guard dogs.

Pembroke Welsh Corgi are ranked as the 11th most intelligent dog in Stanley Coren's The Intelligence of Dogs—they are actually intelligent enough to allow you to think that you are the boss. This, combined with their eagerness to please their masters, makes Pembrokes easy to train. Their sense of humor make them popular with everyone—they always want to be close with humans and cannot resist every chance to play with people or with other dogs. They make obedient, protective, active family members—especially around small children. Welsh Corgi's Grooming Despite their full furry appearance, Pembroke Welsh Corgi are very easy to maintain and require no more than simple fur brushing and combing twice a week to remove dead fur. They only need to be bathed when necessary. Welsh Corgi's Health Being around people most of the time, Pems have a tendency to be obese, which will later put pressure on their long spines.
