Animal Behavior

It depends on the type of animal. Such as hamsters rely on their mom until 4-6 weeks old. Then they are able to take care of themselves. So it really depends on the type of animal you are looking at. Hope this Helps!

My opinion is that these are the smartest animals and some reasons why, in no particular order,

1. Hamster because they know anywhere they can escape because last week my hamster started trying to dig up the corner of my carpet. :o :D

2. A pet tortoise is one because they know where danger is and tuck in their head.

3. A mouse because they can sneak into any small gap.

4. A lizard because of the hunting skills.

5. A dog for it's smelling skills.

Healthy rabbits clean themselves. You need to groom your rabbit (brushing, nail clipping), but you don't need to clean them. If your rabbit's rear end is dirty, something is very wrong! Your rabbit is sick or possibly injured. Your rabbit needs to see a vet as soon as possible. See the related questions below for more info.

A toad is considered a consumer in the food chain. Toads feed on insects like ants and beetles, making them a primary consumer that consumes other organisms for energy. They do not play a role as a composer or decomposer in an ecosystem.

Many. lets see the amardillo has a hard shell-like plating on it and when danger aproaches it can retreat into it and then theres is the enchidna which has spiny throne-like hairs that can also dig rapidly and can go into a ball for its defense and then there are the deers and antelope that have speed and endurance and most species have anters aswell to defend themselves and there yuong the animals have evolved in this world to live with what they have and they do just that it is just so awesome how the have adapted from the smallest insect to the largest mammal they have been here longer then us and well porbalby stay longer then us.

Granules are small convective cells on the Sun's surface caused by rising hot gas and sinking cool gas. Spicules are small jets of gas that shoot upward from the Sun's surface. Together, these features create the granulated texture seen on the Sun's surface.

A frog's eye is typically gold or copper in color. Some frogs may also have green or brown eyes, depending on the species.

Being from the rural South, and thus being around all things organic, my answer to this question is that Chicken Snakes (genus elaphe, I believe) eat nothing, outside of rodents but chicken eggs. I have actually seen a black chicken snake digesting what you could remarkably make out as what appeared to be 3 eggs at once.

Their name comes from the fact that a chickens actual value, and by this I will be sexist and qualify value with "Hen", Lays, (NPI) with her ability to produce eggs.

These snake are harmless, but enterprising, and will get into a coup and make the rounds, ( or should I say ovals), of either "setting hens" or just freshly laid eggs.

You should be warned, if raising chickens, if a snake is intruding, by the chickens themselves. They get quite upset when invaded by any one of the various varieties of the chicken snake family and become very 'vocal'. It happens mostly at night per my experience.

But remember, they are harmless to humans, though can appear quite aggressive when cornered or entrapped. But they really are just a cost of doing business with nature and surely offset their liking for eggs by the fact they remove far more mice and rats than they ever will eggs.

Again, my personal experience.

Gaboon vipers primarily eat small mammals such as rodents, birds, and even other snakes. They are sit-and-wait predators that rely on their excellent camouflaging abilities to ambush prey as it passes by. Once caught, they inject potent venom through their long fangs to subdue their meal.

A density-independent limiting factor is a factor that affects a population regardless of its size or density. These factors include natural disasters like wildfires, hurricanes, and droughts, which can reduce population size even if the population is small.

The American robin has a slender, pointed beak that is designed for probing and capturing worms, insects, and other invertebrates in the soil.

As the lions are more lazier then the lioness . The Lion just lies around under the trees.

while lying under the trees Male lions text message other male lions in near by prides...then they get together at a lions pub and watch the lions game.

Zebras primarily migrate with other herd animals such as wildebeest, antelope, and gazelles. Migration allows these animals to find food, water, and suitable breeding grounds as seasons change. The collective movement also helps protect them from predators.

Yes, agnatha, which are jawless fish like lampreys and hagfish, do not have paired side fins like other fish. Instead, they have a long, eel-like body with a single dorsal fin running along their back.

No, freezing a goldfish would likely cause severe damage to its internal organs and tissues due to ice crystal formation, ultimately leading to its death. It is not a humane or recommended method for preserving the fish.

Honey guides are birds that have a symbiotic relationship with humans known as mutualism. They help humans find beehives in exchange for leftover honey and bee larvae that humans cannot access. Humans benefit from the honey guides' guidance, while the honey guides benefit from access to the beeswax combs.

You should start working with him on simple things like lunging (Only at a walk. Have him go in small circles around you. If he starts to act up, quickly correct him.) when he turns two or even younger. (Obviously not to young. 1-2 years old is usually when I start teaching my foals how to lunge.) Then, as he gets better, (don't expect results right away) find a light saddle (about 50 punds or so) and put it on him. Continue lunging him while he's wearing the saddle. After this, find a bit that fits him and an older headstall. (because it's obviously going to take some wear-and-tear.) DO NOT attatch the reins yet! As a vet, I cannot tell you how many calls a year I get to come check there ''lame'' horse because somone was careless and left the reins on. A young horse will have his days where he feel's frisky and silly, so he rears up and get's his hoof caught in the reins. It can turn bad-fast. Continue lunging him with the saddle and bit on for a while until he is calm and doesn't mind the stirrups flapping at his sides or the taste of metel. Then slowly move him into a gentle trot with all of his tack on. (except for the reins! =]) Now you're ready to start putting weight in the stirrups. Have a friend who has experience with horses hold him while you put your foot in the stirrup and put a little weight in it. Hop a little bit like you're getting ready to mount. Maybe even stand in the stirrup. BUT ALWAYS BE PREPARED TO JUMP OFF! When he's O.K. with one side, move to he other side. By age 3, you should be able to start sitting on him. Have your experienced horse buddy hold him while you mount onto him. (Yes, now you can have the reins on.) Get on him from the left side, sit on him for 5 seconds, (start counting after your butt hits the seat.) IF HE STARTS DANCING AND PRANCING, JUMP OFF IMMEDIATLY! We don't want you or your buddy to get hurt. Gradually go from 5 seconds to 10, 10 to 15, 15 to 20, etc., until your can sit on him for a good 4-5 minutes without him freaking out. After you have managed sitting on him, have your horsey buddy walk you and him around the arena. As he gets better at this, start walking him around on your own, gradually moving into a trot when YOU think he's ready. I hope this helped. (Bet you thought this answer was never going to end. Ha ha!)

Some adults cry like that too, not just kids. I think kids are seen doing it more because they hold nothing back. Adult criers will hold their bottom lip back or cover it.

As to why, I have no clue.

Some predatory animals hunt in groups to increase their chances of success in capturing prey. Group hunting allows them to collaborate and use strategic tactics to ambush, surround, or chase down their target. It also helps in taking down larger or more formidable prey that would be challenging for a solitary hunter.

Some factors that can reduce competition within a species population include an increase in resources available, a decrease in population density, the introduction of a new niche that allows for more specialized resource use, and the development of social structures that help regulate competition within the population.

Well, first of all, animals cuddle with each other when they want warmth or protection. Most animals do this. I mean think about it, why do humans cuddle? Is not a thorow answer. The answer is animals do this to keep warm so they aren't too cold. Some animals do this because they have to, to survive. Others do this for protection, which I will give credit to the first person who answered this. But, the first person who answered this left out what animals do this. Meerkats & maybe lions do this, but these are not the only animals to do this. That is my edit to this answer. (:

Living things respond because the normal life form has four main characteristics. Characteristics:
-respond
-reproduce
-grow and develop
-made of one or more cells


Without responding it is no longer called a living thing.

Hibernation is the winter counterpart to estivation. Hibernation is a state of inactivity and lowered metabolic rate that some animals enter during the colder months to conserve energy, while estivation is a similar state entered in response to hot or dry conditions.

The pronghorn is an herbivore, meaning it primarily eats plants such as grasses, shrubs, and forbs. It does not eat meat, making it neither an omnivore nor a carnivore.

Darwin was the first scientist to have the courage to put forward the theory of natural selection.
