This young grey wolf has found himself a great way to help his teething problems. A little wood and bark gnawing goes a long way to help those old gums. :)
The Bengal tiger, or Royal Bengal tiger (Panthera tigris tigris or Panthera tigris bengalensis), is a subspecies of tiger primarily found in Bangladesh, India, and also Nepal,Pakistan, Bhutan, Myanmar and southern Tibet. It has traditionally been considered the second largest subspecies after the Siberian tiger, but Northern Bengal Tigers are often larger than Siberian tigers. So far the heaviest Bengal tigers captured in Nepal for research have been heavier than recently captured Siberian tigers. It is the most common tiger subspecies, living in a variety of habitats, including grasslands, subtropical and tropical rainforests, scrub forests, wet and dry deciduous forests, and mangroves. The Bengal subspecies P. tigris tigris is the national animal of Bangladesh, while at the species level the Tiger Panthera tigris is the national animal of India.
The leopard; Panthera pardus) is an Old World mammal of the Felidae family and the smallest of the four roaring cats in the genus Panthera, the other three are the tiger, lion and jaguar. Once distributed across southern Asia and Africa, from Korea to South Africa, the leopard’s range of distribution has decreased radically over time because of a variety of factors, including human influence, and the leopard now chiefly occurs in sub-Saharan Africa. There are fragmented populations in India, Indochina, Malaysia, and China. Despite the loss of range and continual declines in population, the cat remains a “Least Concern” species; its numbers are greater than that of the other Panthera species, all of which face more acute conservation concerns. / —-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-- / The leopard has relatively short legs and a long body, with a large skull. Physically, it most closely resembles the jaguar, although it is usually smaller and of slighter build. Its fur is marked with rosettes which lack internal spots, unlike those of the jaguar. Leopards that are melanistic, either completely black or very dark in coloration, are one of the big cats known colloquially as black panthers. / -—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-- / The species’ success in the wild owes in part to its opportunistic hunting behaviour, its adaptability to a variety of habitats and its ability to move at up to approximately 60 kilometres (37 miles) an hour. The leopard consumes virtually any animal it can hunt down and catch. Its preferred habitat ranges from rainforest to desert terrains. Its ecological role and status resembles that of the similarly-sized cougar in the Americas.

Featured in Art 4 Charity in December 2008/January 2009. All proceeds from the sale of this work go to the Elephant Conservation Park. These elephants are friends at the Elephant Conservation Park in Chiang Mai, Thailand. The browner coloured one is blind, and the other helps lead it. The Thai elephant is endangered. Lek, at the Thai Conservation Park, is doing a fantastic job of working with injured and orphaned elephants to ensure the survival of the species in that country. You can view a black and white image of her with some of the elephants (and the dogs at the park) here: Please click here to find out more about the park.

Featured in Just Pure Nature, May 3rd, 2009. A white-breasted nuthatch clings to a tree trunk. Taken in Lynde Shores Conservation Area in Whitby, Ontario, Canada. A common feeder bird with clean black, gray, and white markings, White-breasted Nuthatches are active, agile little birds with an appetite for insects and large, meaty seeds. They get their common name from their habit of jamming large nuts and acorns into tree bark, then whacking them with their sharp bill to “hatch” out the seed from the inside. White-breasted Nuthatches may be small but their voices are loud, and often their insistent nasal yammering will lead you right to them.
