The cats' skill in killing them may have first earned the affectionate attention of humans. Early Egyptians worshipped a cat goddess and even mummified their beloved pets for their journey to the next world—accompanied by mummified mice! Cultures around the world later adopted cats as their own companions. Like their wild relatives, domestic cats are natural hunters able to stalk prey and pounce with sharp claws and teeth. They are particularly effective at night, when their light-reflecting eyes allow them to see better than much of their prey.
It will roll into a ball so that its stiff spines are protecting itself. The hedgehog has very poor eyesight. This was surprising for me because it would need could eyesight to be active at night. Instead of its eyes, they use their ears and sense of smell. Hedgehogs are immune to toxins so they are able to eat beetles, wasps, and some venomous
The Tarsier’s long slender fingers are for the grasping of branches. It’s hind legs give the ability of leaping almost 3 meters, and a long tail to balance itself. It’s actually two primate mixes of lemurs + ape. The Tarsier is nocturnal, and a very hidden creature, especially since he’s VERY small. In fact some farmers thought of them as rats that ate their crops.
Their powerful teeth extend outside their lips. Naked mole rat lips can close behind their teeth, preventing dirt from entering the mouth. Naked mole rats can run just as fast backwards as they can forward. Naked mole rats are unable to maintain their body temperature, so they will huddle together to keep warm or lay in tunnels near the surface. Naked mole rats live in colonies led by a dominant rat which is the queen.

They are from Australia and have become popular pets worldwide because of how well they bond with humans. When born, they are as big as your thumb.

Also, neither benefits anything. People are very harmful for the Earth just like fleas are for a dog. Fleas are parasites that feed off of blood. They usually feast off of dogs or cats. Within 24 hours of their first blood meal, a flea can begin laying eggs.

Digesting takes a long time for boas, because they don’t chew their prey. Enemies of the boa constrictor are large birds, other snakes and bigger animals, like jaguars. The biggest threats to boas are probably human beings! They protect themselves by opening their mouth very wide and showing its fangs to scare the enemy away. Most boa constrictors are nocturnal.
It is too bad that William Blake did not have the National Geographic channel. If he had, he would know that the Tiger is no more evil than any other member near the top of the food chain. It kills slower animal because that is the circle of life. There is no hidden, spiritual agenda. In his poem, The Tyger, Blake poses the question of who created the fearsome beast.
