__Fulgoridae __lamplighters belong to cicadas, but now we will talk about their larvae, which have developed the ability to cover their entire body with wax threads and resemble crawling lumps of white fluff. The importance of such protection is obvious – not many people like wax, and it is not easy for parasites to get to the delicate body of larvae through a wax hoodie. In addition, the disheveled wax larvae successfully disguise themselves as lichens. In addition, the wax repels water and prevents the lampshade from being severely damaged by tropical downpours. ⠀ Wax filaments are secreted from glands on the abdomen. They also help the larva to soften the impact when falling. The larva also has a tail, which helps to stay afloat in the water, because wax is hydrophobic. But the grown-up individual has a different appearance, and looks like a jumping piece of paper.

The rarest albino cougar was born in a zoo in Nicaragua. The sex of the baby is still unknown. Zoo veterinarian Carlos Molina said that now there are only four white cougars in the world, and the recently born cub is one of them. There are three kittens in the litter, the other two are beige with spots. Adult cougars are already spotless, their color is usually beige or brown. The mother and cubs are still kept in an airtight cage to protect her from stress and foreign odors. If a mother confuses human smells with the smells of kittens, she can attack them. The father lives in a separate enclosure so that he does not harm the kids. They are going to be shown to visitors when they turn three months old. The white cub is healthy and eats well, the veterinarian said. He added that albino cougars are very sensitive to sunlight and require careful care.
Golden-breasted andigena (saffron toucanette) Pteroglossus bailloni is a bird of the toucan family found in South America - in eastern Paraguay, in the Argentine province of Misiones and in southeastern Brazil, where it lives in tropical rain jungles. The body length of the antigen is about 35-40 cm, the wingspan is about 130 cm. The weight of adult birds is 150 to 170 g. A distinctive feature of the species is the saffron-yellow color of most of the plumage. The beak is also predominantly yellow, and the wings are rather brownish. The basis of the antigen diet is fruits, but they do not disdain the destruction of the nests of small birds.

The four-winged cuckoo __Tapera naevia__ has settled in South America - from Mexico and Trinidad south to Bolivia and Argentina. And she is famous for her unsurpassed dancing. Yes, we also thought at first that this was a clever video montage, but no. Judge for yourself: only someone who saw this dance live could call an ordinary bird with two wings four-winged! This bird occupies an important place in Brazilian folklore and is related to the legend of Sisi - a one-legged mulatto boy with holes in his palms, an incorrigible joker smoking a pipe. One of Sisi's magical properties is the ability to transform into the elusive matitapere bird, whose melancholic song seems to come from nowhere...

Among all stork marabou, it is distinguished by the most impressive size. The marabou is divided into three subspecies: Indian, African, and Javanese. Here we see the African marabou Leptoptilos crumeniferus. These birds have a memorable appearance, but prosaically they often live near large landfills, where they look for food, and a bare neck and head without feathers helps to keep their bodies clean. The African marabou reaches a height of more than one and a half meters and weighs 8.5-10 kg. There is a peculiar sac in the neck area that connects to the nostrils. It can inflate and reach 40 cm in diameter. In young individuals, it is practically absent, its growth occurs during the growth of the bird. Previously, it was believed that birds put food in it in reserve, but it turned out that this outgrowth is used only during mating games and so that the bird can put its head on it at rest.
