North America
The Bald Eagle is the national emblem of the
United States and is the only eagle native to
North America. Luckily, over the last 45 years
its population has risen from only 1,000 birds to
70,000 of which half live in Alaska
The Brown Bear (or Grizzly Bear as it is often
known) can grow to 800lbs which is over 4 times
as much as a human. They are however extremely
fast and agile and can even climb trees!

Europe
The Monk Seal is extremely endangered with only
about 300-500 animals left in the Mediterranean.
They are threatened by nets and fishermen
themselves who still consider them competition
for fish.
The Iberian Lynx is the most endangered of the
cat family. It is nocturnal and feeds mainly on
rabbits in Spain and Portugal. Lack of food owing
to the rabbit disease Myxamatosis is considered
largely responsible for its decline.

Asia
The Bengal Tiger is found throughout India and
the Himalayas. It will eat just about anything,
even humans! Its beautiful colouration and
markings are as unique as a fingerprint to each
animal.
Scientists still debate whether the Giant Panda
is a type of bear or racoon. Unlike other bears
it doesnt hibernate but it does enjoy a little
honey when it can lay its paws on some! Otherwise
it lives almost entirely on bamboo.

Africa
The African Elephant is the bigger relative of
the Asian species and is the worlds largest
living land animal. Some have been known to eat
over 200kgs of vegetation a day. Their ivory
tusks were sadly once used to make piano keys.
Gorillas live in large family groups in dense
scrub across Africa. They eat mainly plants but
will eat fruit and sometimes ants and grubs.
Contrary to some belief, they are peaceful and
gentle animals.

South America
Blue and Yellow Macaws usually live in pairs or
in larger flocks along the rivers of South
America and Panama. They eat predominately seeds,
fruits and nuts.
South American frogs are brightly coloured to
warn predators that they are usually highly
poisonous. The Blue Poison Frog is considered
endangered and is found in Brazil

Australia
The Dugong lives in Australia with its cousin the
Manatee around the Florida coast in America. Part
of the Sea Cow family, they are shy harmless
creatures that are vegetarian and have no natural
predators however they are very sensitive to cold
temperatures.
Koalas are very fussy eaters, having particular
favourites of Eucalyptus tree to feed on. They
live in small communities of other Koalas and
sleep for up to 18 hours a day!
