Elephants typically coexist peacefully with other herbivores, which will usually stay out of their way. Some aggressive interactions between elephants and rhinoceros have been recorded. At Aberdare National Park, Kenya, a rhino attacked an elephant calf and was killed by the other elephants in the group.

The Persians used them during the Achaemenid Empire while Southeast Asian states first used war elephants possibly as early as the 5th century BC and continued to the 20th century. In 2020, the IUCN listed the Asian elephant as endangered due to an almost 50% population decline over “the last three generations” Asian elephants once ranged from Syria and Iraq , to China and Java. It is now extinct in these areas, and the current range of Asian elephants is highly fragmented. The total population of Asian elephants is estimated to be around 40,000–50,000, although this may be a loose estimate. Although Asian elephants are declining in numbers overall, particularly in Southeast Asia, the population in the Western Ghats appears to be increasing.

Early in 1966, hints of psychedelia were turning up in The Animals’ records – a change Eric Burdon would soon fully embrace. You’ll hear hints of The Doors in Burdon’s roar and the way the music eases back moodily at times. Male field crickets chirp or sing by rubbing their wings together. One wing has a “file” or sharp ridge while the other has a “scraper,” a series of wrinkles. The field cricket’s wings are designed to produce sound and to amplify it, too.

A little over half the song is comprised of chorus, which leaves little room for story, but hammers home the hook.

In most cases, a third germ layer, the mesoderm, also develops between them. These germ layers then differentiate to form tissues and organs. Sexual reproduction is nearly universal in animals, such as these dragonflies. With few exceptions—in particular, the sponges and placozoans—animal bodies are differentiated into tissues. These include muscles, which enable locomotion, and nerve tissues, which transmit signals and coordinate the body. Typically, there is also an internal digestive chamber with either one opening or two openings .

And you have to admit, the title of the song is quite unique. “Slow Cheetah” is probably one of the Red Hot Chili Peppers’ most underrated songs. He was probably one of the best lyricists that ever lived, and this song is just one of the proofs of his unique creativity. “Arrival of the Birds” by British group The Cinematic Orchestra is a very powerful and sentimental track. And “Wolf” by First Aid Kit is a nice example of a song inspired by this magnificent animal.

The “calling song” encourages the female to travel from a distance.

The lyrics in this song definitely put a different spin on things. The storyteller talks about how difficult things were, painting a rather stark picture of how things were.
