For example, tigers are solitary animals, so the responsibility of raising and protecting a cub falls squarely on the shoulders of the mother. Cubs normally stick to their mothers for up to the first two years before becoming fully independent. Until then, the tigress cannot bear another litter. Typically, the interval b...

World Migratory Bird Day
9th May 2020, by WWF Malaysia
Today is World Migratory Bird Day! This day highlights the need to conserve migratory birds and protect their habitats.
.

These birds fly across incredible distances leaving their homes or breeding grounds to warmer habitats when their breeding sites become unfavourable due to low temperature. Some of them cross country boundaries and some cross oceans.
.
It is mysterious how they rely on their senses to find their flyway....
