Yes, Pangolins (also called a scaly anteater) are mammals of the order Pholidota, and are covered in scales formed from Keratin (the only mammal to be covered with such scales). Keratin is the same material that forms our fingernails.
becaus they use there nose to touch the ground and easily pick up ants and insert them into there mouths... kind of like elephants
Yes. The Beagle breed will eat meat. If you let your Beagle out somewhere to catch a rabbit, mouse, bird, or other game, they will eat it. If trained though, they will bring it back. Beagles are hunting hounds. Also, it's a good idea to keep food from the edge of counters when you have a Beagle in the house. Especially food such as steaks.
No. Spiny anteaters, more correctly known as echidnas,are highly adaptable to a variety of conditions, so they are one of the Australian native animals which has been least affected by European settlement and the associated problems of habitat loss. The echidna is currently listed as "common" throughout Australia and its conservation status is not listed as endangered.
It is a remarkably adaptable creature which can live wherever there are termites or ants.
The echidna is less affected by habitat loss than many other species, as it does not need a specialised environment, just a good supply of ants and termites. There are areas of Australia where echidnas were once common, but have not been sighted in years. The biggest threats are dogs and cars. However, the echidna still enjoys a healthy population in many less urbanised areas.
Natural predators to the echidna are dingoes, and goannas and snakes may prey on young echidnas, sometimes taking them from their burrows.
No, the two are distinctly different animals.
Aardvarks are of the genus Orycteropus and are medium size, burrowing animals that are native to Africa. They are thought to closely resemble pigs although not actually related. Anteaters are of the sub order Vermilingua and are known for eating ants and other small insects with their long tongues. They live in trees and are said to resemble bears. They are found in central and south America.
Well some people hunt birds because they are tasty. Some people hunt birds because it has been passed on through generations. And some people hunt birds because they don't want to mess up the food chain.
they live in south america,brazil in the amazon river area.
An antelope is a fast-running animal that is closely related to deer. They typically live in open areas where they can see approaching predators and run quickly away from them.
All species of anteater are characterised primarily by their elongated snouts which carry their mouths on the end. To protect themselves from the ants they eat, anteaters also typically have dense coats of fur.
They don't eat clover as such, but they do like the nectar from clover and readily collect it and take it back to their nest.
they have an open circulatory system which means body fluids are filling body cavities and appendages

1-2 months for the pesky black ant, 6 months for pet ants in an ant farm (if you feed them), 6-7 years for carpenter ants.
The Giant Anteater, is the largest species of anteater. It is found in Central and South America. It is the only species in the Myrmecophaga genus. It is a solitary animal, found in many habitats, including grasslands, deciduous forests and rainforests. It feeds mainly on ants and termites, sometimes up to 30,000 insects in a single day.
