Flamingos are beautiful birds with a dazzling display of pink feathers. Of course pink is not the only color of the Flamingos plumes. The colors can range from red to orange, white and even blue, depending on what they eat! Flamingos live a very social life. They love to have friends and family all around, but not just one or two. Their colony can have hundreds, thousands, even tens of thousands at one time. An East African colony is famous for having more than one million members. Imagine how noisy it can get if they all squawk or honk at once! Do you know how old Flamingos are? How long they have existed? The Smithsonian National Zoo says their ancestry goes back for 30 million years, even more! So they are very ancient birds, and one of the oldest species known to humanity. Happily Flamingos are mostly calm, cool and collected. They love to stretch their long legs and ‘wade’ along the shore looking for food to eat. Sometimes they dine on shrimp, specifically brine-shrimp which contributes to their exotic pink tone. Even though human development has reduced their habitat to some extent, Flamingos still thrive in the coastal regions of South and Central America including the West Indies, the Galapagos Islands and other areas. Their colorful species are a beautiful part of life’s great mosaic of natural wonders.

Publisher Introduction Chinchillas are fun, cute, and highly unique animals. Most people can claim that they have heard of a chinchilla, but very few know what they look like, or know much about them. This is because chinchillas are not native to a very unique part of the world, meaning they live in only one small area of the world. Chinchillas were discovered in the 1500s by Spanish explorers that came to South America. Even though they were discovered in the 1500s, it wasn't until the 1900s that people came to know more about chinchilla. Today, chinchillas can be kept as pets, and because of their cute and cuddly appearance, and their unique and quirky personalities, people all over the world have fallen in love with them. This book will talk about what chinchillas are, where they live and how they live, what they eat, and why these little furry critters are so lovably unique.

What is a Marsupial? A marsupial (mar-SOO-pee-al) is a type of animal that has a special way of caring for its young. When a baby marsupial is born, it is too weak and frail to live outside. Instead, it crawls inside a pouch in the mother’s body where it can be warm and protected. It stays there until it grows big enough to go outside. Kangaroos and koalas are marsupials. Most of the Australian animals in this book are marsupials. Marsupials live in other parts of the world too. A young marsupial is usually called a joey. You can sometimes see a joey sticking its head out of its mother’s pouch. All marsupials are mammals. This means that the young ones drink milk from their mother’s body. Joeys do this while inside their mother’s pouch. Read more animal books at http://AmazingAnimalBooks.com

  • Rabbits For Kids Amazing Animal Books For Young Readers

    Rachel Smith, Mendon Cottage Books

    Paperback (CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, Sept. 18, 2015)
    Rabbits For Kids Amazing Animal Books For Young Readers Table of Contents Introduction What are rabbits? What do rabbits eat? Rabbits and their appearance How do rabbits act? Rabbits as pets European Rabbits Cottontail Rabbits Volcano Rabbits Pygmy Rabbits Amami Rabbits Australian Rabbits Pikas Hares Conclusion Author Bio Introduction Rabbits are adorable animals that many people keep as pets. They exist both in the wild and as pets in great numbers; in fact, rabbits are known for having babies, and lots of them. The reason there are so many rabbits is because they have so many babies, and with short gaps in between. The rabbit has been shown as a trickster in many tales throughout the world; it’s also considered a symbol of life and fertility, particularly in the Christian tradition. Easter is a time of year that decorations of rabbits are put up, and the rabbit is celebrated. Along with foxes, they are one of the most popular animals for folk tales. Rabbits have long been prey animals, meaning that they are hunted by bigger predators, such as wolves or foxes. They make up for their fragile build and health by pure numbers; a lot of rabbits may not make it, but because there are so many, it doesn’t make a difference. Most rabbits are not endangered. If you want cute and cuddly, rabbits are almost the cutest pet around. They also love being petted, like a lot of domestic (tamed) animals. Rabbits make great pets.

Pictures of Walruses Get this book at this special price exclusive to the Amazon Store. 2. Facts About Walruses Walruses are very social creatures that like to gather in herds. The size of their herds can range in number anywhere from 100 walruses to more than 1,000! An adult male walrus is called a bull. The female walrus is called a cow. The reason that walruses lay in the sun is to keep warm. Although their color is usually a reddish brown, when they lay in the sun, their skin can turn pink in color. It is actually good when their skin color changes to pink. That is a sign that the walrus is warming up. The walrus also has its thick blubber to protect them and keep them warm from the freezing cold waters of the Artic. This layer of blubber is under the skin of the walrus, and can measure to over 5” thick. When walruses are young, their coat is a deep colored brown. As the walruses grow older, this color begins to change. Their color gets lighter, and looks more reddish brown. When male walruses become old, the color of their skin turns mostly pink. When a walrus is swimming, they can look almost white in color. This is because the cold water makes their skin blood vessels become tighter and narrower. A walrus can stay up to 30 minutes underwater before they must surface for air. The walrus can actually slow down their heartbeat so that they can stand up to the icy cold Artic water temperatures. Most groups of walrus will travel south for the winter months, then turn around and head north for the summer. The male walruses have air sacs that can be found by their neck. These air sacs are very useful. One thing it helps them to do is make loud, deep roaring sounds. These sacs can also fill up with air. When they inflate, the walrus can stay afloat in the water vertically so that he can go to sleep. Their nostrils stay closed when they are resting. Both the female and the male walruses have tusks, but it is the males’ tusks that are slightly longer. These tusks will continue to grow over their lifetime. A female’s tusk can measure 2-½ ft long, while, a male’s tusk can measure over 3 ft. long! The scientific name for walrus is Odobenus rosmarus. In Latin, this name actually means, “tooth walking sea horse”. The walruses’ whiskers, also known as mystacial vibrissae, are also very interesting. They can have as many as 13 to 15 rows of whiskers that are 12” long. That could mean as many as 400 to 700 total whiskers! Many times, walruses that live in the wild, do not have whiskers that reach that long. They are always using their whiskers to look for food at the ocean’s bottom, so their whiskers are shorter.

They’re actually very picky eaters. This is in spite of many sources showing them eating everything from homework to tin cans. Goats are very interesting creatures; they have been domesticated (herded and raised by humans) for longer than people have had a written language. Goats aren’t a bit part of modern day life for most people, but they have long been a source of food, clothing, and other goods for people the world over. Goats are good for milk, fibers (to make fabric out of), skin, meat, and their horns. They are similar to sheep in a lot of their uses to humans, and it’s no wonder, because they’re cousins. Domestic animals include dogs, cows, sheep, cats, and horses; the goat is one of many. However, they are unique among their fellow domestic animals in many ways.
