ℹ Burchell's glossy starlings draw a lot of attention to themselves with their looks and their voices. Standing with their heads flung back and their wings slightly dropped, they belt out a throaty, musical call. Roosting in acacia trees or reed beds, flocks of up to 50 birds might assemble in non-breeding seasons. They are “passerine” birds, meaning they perch in trees. Starlings have large feet, well made for walking. They waddle rather than hop when on the ground. Starlings are medium-sized birds, growing to 30 cm and 105 g. Most starlings nest in holes, and their eggs are blue or white.

🦒There are four distinct species of giraffe: Northern giraffe Giraffa camelopardalis, Southern giraffe giraffa, Reticulated giraffe G. reticulata and Masai giraffe G. tippelskirchi.
🦒Giraffe are already extinct in at least seven countries in Africa.
🦒Just like human fingerprints, no two giraffe have the same coat pattern.
🦒Giraffe feet are the size of a dinner plate with a diameter of 30 cm.
🦒Giraffe tongues are bluish-purple and between 45 and 50 cm long.
🦒Both male and female giraffe have horns already at birth. These ossicones lie flat and are not attached to the skull to avoid injury at birth. They only fuse with the skull later in life.

❗The African Leopard is widely distributed across Africa, but the population of this sub-species is decreasing and it has been classified as Vulnerable by IUCN's Red List.

🐆Leopards are astoundingly strong. They are pound for pound the strongest of the big cats. They are able to climb trees, even when carrying heavy prey, and often choose to rest on tree branches during the day.Leopards are renowned for their agility. They run up to 58km/h and can leap 6m horizontally and 3m vertically. They are also very strong swimmers.

🐌The largest land snail is the Achatina achatina, the Giant African Snail.
🐌Snails have no backbone.
🐌Some land snails feed on other terrestrial snails.
🐌Most snail species are hermaphrodites, so they have both male and female reproductive organs.

ℹOxpeckers spend their daylight hours picking and consuming parasites out of the pelage of their hosts in a win-win relationship known as mutualistic symbiosis. Both species involved gain several advantages from their relationship. Herbivores benefit greatly by having their bodies cleaned from parasitic, bloodsucking invertebrates. Oxpeckers also benefit their mammalian hosts by affording them an early warning system. Birds are usually more vigilant than most big animals and when startled they fly up noisily, hissing and rasping characteristically. This usually causes the animal to look up and respond to a potential threat.
