What type of camouflage does a zebra have?

  • The beauty with zebra's camouflage is that it deceives predators, such as lions. Whereas most animals blend into the grass and trees, people sometimes get confused by how zebra use their black and white stripes to their advantage (have you ever seen a black and white tree growing in Africa?!)
  • When in a large herd of a hundred or more zebras, their black and white stripes confuse the predator into thinking where one zebra ends and another begins. This illusion is referred to as "fatigue design" - the patterns are such that animals get exhausted trying to isolate an individual.
  • Moreover, the zebras' biggest enemies are lions who colorblind which make the hundreds of cuddled zebras look like one single body.

President Teddy Roosevelt, not only was a huge advocate in preserving our national treasures with our National Park System, but he also welcomed a lion, a hyena, a wildcat, a coyote, a zebra, an owl, a raccoon and an assortment of lizards, rats and fowl into the White House. However, our answer goes to Calvin Coolidge. Coolidge loved wildlife, was an avid sportsman and probably had the most animals. He had lots and lots of dogs, cats, a goose, raccoons, a donkey named Ebenezer and a bobcat named Smokey. Recognizing his love for all creatures, many times high ranking officials from other countries gave gifts to Coolidge including lion clubs, bears, an antelope, a pygmy hippo and numerous wild birds.

How do you move on and get over the hurt of your ex acting like you never existed when you work with them and their new partner and have to see them every day?

Wow, that's a tought one. Uuuummm I think you could just either ignore him or her back, give them a taste of their own medicine if they talk to you or you can give them a letter saying piss off or something Hes doing that to deliberatly hurt you. It takes alot of energy to ignore a person, so if he really didnt care he would talk to you normal. Hes a loser and spitefull. This one is really simple, despite it's apparent complexity. If it bothers you, and you can't find a way to make it not bother you, you go work some place else. There are lots of reasons to leave a job - lack of opportunity, a poor financial outlook, a better offer comes along. This reason is just as valid as any of the more traditional reasons. Pick up and move on. --Eric

What is the summary of mrs packletide tigers?

This story tells us about a woman's pleasure and intention to shoot a tiger. This short masterpiece is written by a very renowned author -- Saki. The story was written at a time when there was a very little awareness about the need to protect the tigers. The story deals with an important character named Mrs. Packeltide whose motive was to kill a tiger for her pleasure. This wasn't due to her lust to kill but it was created due to her close friend, Mrs. Loona Bimberton. Mrs. Loona Bimberton is another character in the story who has recently shot a tiger and the name and fame she has got due to it had a major impact on Mrs. Packeltide which made her think of shooting a tiger.

2. As the circumstances seemed favorable, she stared her journey to accomplish her motive. Mrs. Packeltide has offered a thousand rupees for the opportunity to shoot a tiger without any risk. The neighbouring village gets to know about the news and accepts the challenge as it had a large number of tigers in it. The precious amount of a thousand rupees had spread all over the village and the villagers which included women and children cloud be seen working of the challenge of grabbing this amount. As it happens, a very elderly tiger, who is no longer able to chase down it prey for supper, has taken to preying on the village's domesticated animals, and the villagers would like to get rid of him as much as Mrs. Packletide would like to bag him.

3. The day had arrived. It was moonlit and cloudless. The villagers had constructed a platform in a leafy tree for Mrs. Packletide, and tether a goat "with a particularly persistent bleat" underneath it was kept as a prey for the tiger. To accomplish this task more safely, Mrs. Packeltide had appointed a paid companion, Miss. Mebbin. Now, Mrs. Packletide, accompanied by her paid companion Louisa, waits through the night for the tiger to appear. At last the tiger is seen making his way into the clearing. Instead of attacking the terrified goat, however, the tiger lies down. "I believe it's ill," Louisa says, but the tiger rises again and heads for the goat. Mrs. Packletide fires, and the tiger falls.

4. In a moment, all the natives could be seen excited to see the seen as the tiger was dead. This glad news was carried to the whole village and the thumping of tom-toms could be heard to suit the scene.

5. But, the story takes a change when Miss. Mebbin finds out that the goat was shot and had a wound while no trace of a bullet or a wound could be found on the tiger. It was later found out that the wrong animal had been hit accidently. The tiger had died due to a heart attack as it was very old and could not bear the sudden bullet shot out of the rifle. Mrs. Packeltide was annoyed at this discovery but at the same time she was convinced that she had shot a tiger and accomplished her motive. The villagers will not give away Mrs. Packletide's secret for the thousand rupees. Mrs. Packletide assumes she can trust Louisa for the same reason.

6. The news then spreads as Mrs. Packeltide's as her picture frame reaches from the Texas Weekly Snapshot to the Novoe Vermaya. But Louisa, who seems to felt herself underpaid and underappreciated for some time, informs Mrs. Packletide that she'll require a little extra funding to insure that the story doesn't happen to leak out. Specifically, what Louisa needs is the money to buy a small cottage near Darking. People are very surprised when Louisa, a paid companion, suddenly becomes a homeowner; but they are even more surprised when Mrs. Packletide gives up her newfound hobby, big-game hunting. "The initial expenses are so heavy," she tells those who ask the reason for why she gave up big-game shooting. This is how the story ends.
