#Repost @wildkrattstv • • • • • Today's WOW Fact is all about the world's largest bird! The OSTRICH! Ostriches can live for up to 70 years! With the average life span for an ostrich being 30-40 years. Ostriches have one of the largest eyes of any land animal, to protect them they have 3 eyelids, an upper, lower, and a sideways eyelid which is also known as the nictitating membrane. Ostriches lay BIG eggs! An ostrich egg is approximately 6 inches (15 cm) long and weighs around 1.4-1.8kg (3-4 lbs), that's the equivalent of 24 chicken eggs! #wowfact #wildkratts #ostrich #animalfacts #wildlife #pbskids (at Darlington, South Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cffs6fiNY8a/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Repost @wildkrattstv by @media.repost: 🐸 *ribbit* "The Great Froggyback Ride" is currently streaming for free and in full! *ribbit* 🐸 🇺🇸 - Streaming on the @pbskids website 🇨🇦 - Streaming on both the @tvokids and @knowledge.kids websites This episode is all about poison frogs! Poison frogs, like the Suriname Cobalt or Dyeing Poison Frog, are tadpole-toting parents! Beneath fallen leaf litter strewn across the forest floor of its tropical rainforest home, lie tiny white eggs, which parents protect and make sure they don’t dry out! After about 14 days, larvae hatch from the eggs and are visited by dad, allowing tadpoles to wriggle onto his back! He then carries his young to pools of water in tree holes or the axils of plants (phytotelms) where they will continue to grow. Male dyeing poison frogs can carry 1 to 3 tadpoles at a time! Tadpoles have a mostly carnivorous diet, so parents try and place them in different pools of water to prevent young from fighting over resources or from taking curious bites out of each other! Keeping a watching eye over their eggs and transporting larvae is an effective way to ensure the little tadpoles have enough food and protection to develop into adulthood. #wildkratts #wowfact #frog #poisonfrog #tadpole #krattbrothers #chriskratt #martinkratt #animals #insects #creatureadventuring #animation #pbskids #tvokids #knowledgekids (at Darlington, South Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CFD2xVvnBOd/?igshid=17amkkji3sah7

Repost @wildkrattstv by @media.repost: WOW Fact Friday! 🙌 Praying mantises can be found all over the world. There are over 2,400 described species, but many more exist and are waiting to be discovered! They come in a variety of shapes and colours and are masters of blending into their surroundings. Some resemble the bark from a tree or petals on a flower, while others mimic dead leaves blowing in the wind! One reason for their cryptic nature is that these predatory insects like to ambush their food. They will lie in wait for prey to venture within range. When they do, the mantid lunges forward and extends its raptorial arms, reinforced with muscles and sharp spines, in one speedy execution. Their warrior-like strike can happen in 30 to 50 one-thousandths of a second! That’s quicker than the blink of an eye! Mantises are known for their lighting fast front legs, but they can also be statue-like too! Praying mantises can hold still for hours in order to avoid detection from predators like birds, spiders, and even other mantids! #wildkratts #wowfact #prayingmantis #krattbrothers #chriskratt #martinkratt #animals #insects #creatureadventuring #animation #pbskids (at Darlington, South Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CELKCtxHVT1/?igshid=i7imbb200iud

Repost @wildkrattstv by @media.repost: This week's WOW Fact is all about the amazing CARACAL! The strongly built caracal, widely distributed across Africa and southwestern Asia, inhabits open savanna, grassland, desert, and hilly countryside. Like many of its wild cat cousins, this feline is not a stranger to heights and can pounce with the best of them! Springy muscles found in the caracals long, powerful legs help facilitate explosive jumps that carry its body a vertical distance of 10 feet into the air! The caracal uses its creature power of mighty jump to catch prey in flight, like the dove or sandgrouse, or to leap onto much bigger prey, equally as springy, like the mountain reedbuck or springbok! Although the animal is a formidable hunter, the caracal still needs to watch its back against even bigger predators it shares its home range with, like the lion. When the medium-sized feline feels threatened the cat can enact instant camouflage by laying flat on the ground. The unpatterned tawny coat and pointed ears tipped in black tassels blend well with the tall, dry grasses or thick brush from its habitat. If hiding is not an option, the caracal can climb trees easily with the help of its sharp, retractable claws! #wildkratts #wowfact #caracal #krattbrothers #chriskratt #martinkratt #animals #creatureadventuring #animation #pbskids (at Darlington, South Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CD5DKE9ne8N/?igshid=1c1oxy9n7i619

People who dance early on in their lives, through adolescence are said to be happier. Professional dancers are an exception though.

Thanks God pemuda membuktikan bahwa mereka masih bisa berpikir dengan akal sehatnya!
