CAPYBARAS: THE GIANT RODENT

The Capybara is the biggest rodent in the world. Its also called "chiguire" in Venezuela, Colombia and Ecuador. Their closest relatives are chinchillas and guinea pigs. Its name is derived from "Kapiyva" in the Guarani language means "master of the grasses". Capybaras have heavy, barrel-shaped bodies and short heads with reddish-brown fur on the upper part of their body that turns yellowish-brown underneath. Their best Friends are piranhas!! They love fruit and grass with some cream. Capys love swimming and live in South America by ponds, lakes, swamps, marshes and rivers, so they always love the pool parties!! When swimming, they can hold their breath for 5 minutes. Its feet are slightly webbed. Maybe if you find them...... they will want your clotted cream!!!

Interesting facts:

- His sponsor Puma give him a six figure bonus every time he breaks the world record, this is maybe  why he slows down so he can break it again.

The Amur Leopard

Amur leopard's live in East Russia. Their habitat are mountainious and forest areas. It's the most endagered cat in the world, with around 30 - 35 in the wild. They are in critical danger.

They have beautiful light blue/green eyes which makes them different to other leopards. Another factor which seperates them to other leopards is their thicker fur.

They share the same teritory as tigers. Amur Leopard's favourite dish is Roe Deer and the Silka deer and if they can, they'd love it with some french fries.

Amur's unfortunatley get frequently poached in Russia and China.

3rd Test: England v India

Life is all good. England win the series and become world number 1. They have just won the third test. They won by an innings and 242 runs. A personal best for Cook who got 294, 6 short of his triple century. Virendar Sehwag got a king pair (getting out first ball in both innings) after coming back from injury. The last test will be held at the oval where england will look to complete a whitewash over the obissmal indians.

The Wildebeest

Wildebeest live around East Africa. They always follow the rain as there is always lots of grass. Wildebeest live in big herds up to a million - 5 million. They are in the antelope family. 

At most, they can grow up to 4ft 2 - 4ft 10. The most common places you'll find them will be in the Serengeti and the Masai Mara. 

Migration is a key part of their lives. They cross crocodile infested rivers to get to greener pastures and they are constantly on the move. 

Their safety in numbers helps them to graze without being on the look all the time. Predators tend to only go for the weak and young Wildebeest. 

They are my favourite animal for a few reasons, their noise, their looks eg. the horns and I love the way they move.
