no parrot no peace

Well this bird is called the Eco parrot. This "eco friendly" parrot has unfortunatly decreased by 90% on the only known island where they live but luckily all the rest of these creatures have been captured and bred and there population is still rising today.

a gold kangaroo

This is the gold mantled tree kangaroo. I know it dosn't look like a kangaroo or gold color but I came up with the title by its name. So it is actually a member of the monkey-racoon family. ( If your angry this is all I know about it it is one of the least reasearched animals in the world! )

Your going to need a bigger boat!

All right when I say goblin shark you think I mean something out of a science fiction movie, right? Its actually a rare shark only found in australia, pacific ocean, atlantic ocean and gulf of mexico. Whats weird is it is not endangered. They eat deep sea fish, squid and crabs.

aye-aye

If your out camping in madagascar at night and see two orange eyes you have a super ultra rare aye-aye on your hands! If you hate its looks you may not like to hear it escaped extinction ( less than 30 years ago it almost got regarded extinct until a farmer found under 50 aye-ayes in the wild.

wolverine


When I say Wolverine you think I mean the movie, right? Wolverines are the largest member of the weasel family. Wolverines do not hibernate even in the coldest winter (and they live in the northern parts of the world where it is super COOOOOOOOOOLD!). Oh, and they often sleep in trees and the cubs are born blind and white-colored.

a giant... Armadillo?

He always stays in all these HUGE burrows... oh I forgot to tell you his name... the GIANT ARMADILLO! Now for what I was saying about it living burrows... it lives in burrow for two reasons... 1. To eat and store its favorite food, grubs. 2. Becuase its endothermic ( meaning it has to hibernate ).
