African Palm Civet

The African Palm Civet (also commonly known as the Two-Spotted Palm Civet) is a species of Civet natively found in the tropical jungles of eastern and central Africa. Unlike the other Civet species which are all very closely related to one another, the African Palm Civet is in a genetic group of it's own, making it the most distinctive among the Civet species. The African Palm Civet is widespread throughout a number of habitats with an abundance in numbers in certain areas.

Bonobos

Bonobos are usually a bit smaller, leaner and darker than chimpanzees. Their society is also different?bonobo groups tend to be more peaceful and are led by females. They also maintain relationships and settle conflicts through sex. However, bonobo life isn?t entirely violence free; if two groups of bonobos come together, they may engage in serious fighting.

Giant clams are founded anchored to the coral reefs in the warm, tropical waters of the Indian and South Pacific oceans, where giant clams spend the majority of their time feeding on the abundant variety of food that a coral reef has to offer.
Due to the large size of the giant clam, there have been reports of giant clams eating human beings. Despite this though, no reports of man-eating giant clams have ever been verified as it is thought that the gian
