Red Panda ((Ailurus fulgens)

It is a small arboreal mammal native to the eastern Himalayas and southwestern China. It is the only species of the genus Ailurus. Slightly larger than a domestic cat, it has reddish-brown fur, a long, shaggy tail, and a waddling gait due to its shorter front legs. It feeds mainly on bamboo, but is omnivorous and may also eat eggs, birds, insects, and small mammals. It is a solitary animal, mainly active from dusk to dawn, and is largely sedentary during the day. - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_panda

Orangotango

Image by Digo_Souza
O orangotango (cujo nome vem de duas palavras da língua malaia que, juntas, significam "pessoa da floresta") é um género de exclusivamente duas espécies asiáticas de Grandes primatas. Nativo da Indonésia e da Malásia, os orangotangos são encontrados somente nas florestas tropicais do Bornéu e da Sumatra. Classificado no género Pongo, orangotangos foram considerados uma espécie. No entanto, desde 1996, eles foram divididos em duas espécies: o orangotango-de-bornéu (P. pygmaeus) e o orangotango-de-sumatra (P. abelii). Para além disso, a espécie do orangotango-de-bornéu está dividida em 3 subespécies. Os orangotangos também são as únicas espécies sobreviventes da subfamília Ponginae, que também incluiu várias outras espécies como o gigantopithecus, o maior primata conhecido. Ambas as espécies tiveram o seu genoma sequenciado e parecem ter divergido há cerca de 400.000 anos atrás. Orangotangos divergiram do resto dos grandes primatas há aproximadamente 15,7-19,3 milhões de anos atrás.
Os orangotangos são os primatas mais arborícolas e passam a maior parte do seu tempo nas árvores. O seu pêlo é tipicamente marrom-avermelhado, ao contrário do pêlo dos Gorilas e dos Chimpanzés. Machos e fêmeas diferem em tamanho e aparência. Têm entre 1,10 e 1,40 m de altura e pesa entre 35 e 100 kg, embora os machos adultos geralmente pesam 200 kg , o que o faz a terceira maior espécie de primata do mundo, superado apenas pelo gorila e pelo homem, com quem partilha cerca de 97% dos genes. Os orangotangos são animais territorialistas, para demarcar território o macho dá um grito estrondoso que avisa os outros orangotangos para não entrarem em seu território. São as espécies mais solitárias dos grandes primatas, com laços sociáveis que só ocorrem principalmente entre as mães e seus filhos independentes, que ficam juntos durante primeiros dois anos. Por consequência os machos adultos só procuram as fêmeas uma vez por ano, na época da seca e acasalam frontalmente.Uma característica sexual notável é o crescimento de "abas" nas laterais da fronte e no pescoço dos machos maduros, o que lhes dá um aspecto bastante peculiar.
As principais ameaças às populações de orangotangos selvagens incluem a caça, destruição do habitat e comércio ilegal de animais para uso de estimação. Segundo os cientistas, restam pouco mais de 100 000 orangotangos no mundo,[5] sendo que o rápido crescimento do ritmo de devastação permite fazer a previsão que a extinção da espécie ocorrerá em algumas décadas.
As fêmeas vivem em grupos, mas aparentemente sem a mesma hierarquia encontrada em outras espécies de antropóides e aprendem como cuidar dos filhotes com as fêmeas mais velhas. Os filhotes nascem após nove meses de gestação, passando a ficar agarrados aos pelos longos das costas da mãe. No ambiente silvestre, a taxa reprodutiva é baixa, o que contribui ainda mais para o risco de extinção. Os filhotes ficam em média 8 anos com a mãe, até se tornarem independentes, o que faz as mães orangotangos, as primatas que cuidam por mais tempo os seus filhos (sem contar com o ser humano.
Os orangotangos vivem em média 35 anos a 40 anos em ambiente selvagem e 50 anos em cativeiro.

_______________________________________________

The orangutan (whose name comes from two words in the Malay language, which together mean "person of the forest") is a genus of only two species of Asian Great primates. Native to Indonesia and Malaysia, orangutans are only found in the rainforests of Borneo and Sumatra. Classified in the genus Pongo, orangutans were considered a kind. However, since 1996, they were divided into two species: the orangutan-of-borneo (P. pygmaeus) and Sumatran orangutan-(P. abelii). Furthermore, the kind-of-orangutan borneo is divided into three subspecies. Orangutans are also the only surviving species of the subfamily Ponginae, which also included several other species such as gigantopithecus, the largest primate known. Both species have had their genomes sequenced and appear to have diverged about 400,000 years ago. Orangutans diverged from the rest of the great apes is approximately 15.7000000 to 19.3000000 years ago.
Orangutans are the most arboreal primates and spend most of their time in trees. Your hair is typically reddish brown, unlike the fur of chimpanzees and gorillas. Males and females differ in size and appearance. Are between 1.10 and 1.40 m tall and weighs between 35 and 100 kg, while adult males generally weigh 200 kg, which makes it the third largest species of primate in the world, surpassed only by the gorilla and man- with whom he shares about 97% of genes. Orangutans are territorial animals, marking territory for the male gives a resounding cry that warns others not to orangutans entering their territory. They are more solitary species of great apes, with sociable ties that only occur mainly between mothers and their children independents who stay together during the first two years. Consequently adult males seeking females only once a year, during the dry season and mate frontalmente.Uma sexual remarkable feature is the growth of "tabs" on the sides of the forehead and neck of mature males, which gives them an aspect quite peculiar.
The main threats to populations of wild orangutans include hunting, habitat destruction and illegal trade of animals for pet use. According to scientists, remain little more than 100,000 orangutans in the world, [5] where the fast growing pace of devastation allows to forecast the extinction of the species occur in a few decades.
Females live in groups, but apparently without the same hierarchy found in other species of apes and learn how to care for puppies older females. Puppies are born after nine months of pregnancy, becoming cling to the long coasts of the mother. In the wild, the reproductive rate is low, which further contributes to the risk of extinction. The puppies are on average 8 years with the mother until they become independent, which makes mothers orangutans, the primates who care for their children more time (not counting humans.
Orangutans live on average 35 years to 40 years in the wild and 50 years in captivity.

Moose Twig Eater
photo of animals
Image by Paul B Jones
The name moose comes from the Algonquin word mooswa, which means “twig eater". Appropriately enough this photograph was taken in Algonquin Provincial Park in southern Ontario and the moose is eating some twigs. I suspect it is a calf, born in spring 2011, as a substantially larger female moose (probably its mother) was standing nearby.

Algonquin is a great place to see this animal, especially along Highway 60 which cuts through the lower part of the Park. We most often encounter them around K25 or so, closer to the west gate. They frequently come to the road edge, and if you stay in your car they will not retreat into the forest.

The picture was taken at dusk on an overcast day with a snow white background - challenging enough to overwhelm my camera smarts. I think I accidently bumped the ISO to 3200 so there isn't much detail.

James Pomfret is a Bachelor of Science student, and majoring in Animal Biology.


He has been conducting research looking at whether diet has played a factor in the decline of the bird species known as Vaux's Swift.

Much of his research relied on piles of poop (guano) collected at the base of their roost.

Part of his research has been funded through a UREAP grant. Read a Q & A with James.

Opening Alter Nature: The Unnatural Animal

In Alter Nature: The Unnatural Animal, both designers exhibit three of their works. On the ground floor of each space, two recent works are on display. Above, in the hanging sheds, one can find research work-in-progress installa tions commissioned by Z33.
The floating spaces reference the playfulness of tree houses, the uncanniness of domestic homes flying in a hurricane, and the experimental nature of Do-It-Yourself bio garden sheds. Van Balen and Cohen invite the visitor to step into their alter-worlds, a space with its own logic; strange at first, but somewhere recognisable.

Wolverine (Gulo gulo)

It is also referred to as glutton, carcajou, skunk bear, or quickhatch, is the largest land-dwelling species of the family Mustelidae (weasels). It is a stocky and muscular carnivore, more closely resembling a small bear than other mustelids. The wolverine has a reputation for ferocity and strength out of proportion to its size, with the documented ability to kill prey many times its size. The wolverine can be found primarily in remote reaches of the Northern boreal forests and subarctic and alpine tundra of the Northern hemisphere, with the greatest numbers in the U.S. state of Alaska, northern Canada, the Nordic countries of Europe, and throughout western Russia and Siberia. Their populations have experienced a steady decline since the 19th century in the face of trapping, range reduction and habitat fragmentation, such that they are essentially absent in the southern end of their European range. It is, however, estimated that large populations remain in North America and northern Asia. - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolverine

Green Bottle Fly
photo of animals
Image by jpctalbot
Macro photo of a Green Bottle fly. Note the ridges and colorful rainbow iridescence on the wings due to thin-film interference. I had not noticed these features before, I suppose its because its so difficult to get this close to a live fly! I suspect the metallic green hue is generated by thin film optics or maybe a natural photonic crystal. The white backdrop was designed to look like those Telus ads with cute squirrel monkeys and other animals.

I used the Canon PowerShot Pro 1 SuperMacro mode to get within 3 centimeters distance. I captured this fly in a transparent container and let him get comfortable in his new home for about one hour. When I released the cover to take the photo, he did not immediately escape because he assumed the cover was still there! The background is fine grain printer paper curved to act as a bounce flash diffuser. Direct light from the flash was blocked with another white sheet folded as to allow secondary reflection to reach the top part of the curved sheet on the table. The fly is still in my room so I may catch him again and try this shot in a lightbox to get a brighter reflection off the metallic green part. I will probably go outside to catch a bigger one to improve the resolution as my camera cannot zoom in any closer (this is a crop from a much larger shot).

No animals were harmed in the taking of these photos.

-Added to the Cream of the Crop pool as most interesting.
