 Generally a tawny yellow, amimal lions, like other species, tend to be lighter in color in hot, arid picture areas and darker in areas of dense vegetation. Mature male lions are unique among the cat species for the thick mane of brown or black hair that encircles the head and neck. The tails of lions end in a horny spine covered with a tuft of hair. Lions are found in savannas, grasslands, dense bush and woodlands. Females do 85 to 90 percent of the pride''s amimal and picture hunting, while the males patrol the territory and protect the pride, for which they take the "lion''s share" of the females'' prey. When resting, lions seem to enjoy good fellowship with lots of touching, head rubbing, licking amimal and purring. But when it comes to food, each lion looks out for itself. Squabbling picture and fighting are common, with adult males usually eating first, followed by the females and then the cubs. A shy creature that roams widely, the cheetah is not seen as easily amimal and picture as some other cats. Never numerous, cheetahs have become extinct in many areas, principally due to shrinking habitat, amimal loss of species to prey upon, disease and a high rate of cub mortality. In some areas 50 to 75 percent of all cheetah picture cubs die before 3 months. Zebras, horses and wild asses are all equids, long-lived animals that move quickly for their large size and have teeth built for grinding and cropping grass. Zebras have horse like bodies, amimal but their manes are made of short, erect hair, their tails are tufted at the tip and their coats are striped. Three species of zebra still occur in Africa, two of which are found in East Africa. The most numerous and widespread species in the east is Burchell''s, also known as the common or plains zebra. Family members look out for one another; if one becomes separated from the rest, the others search for it. The group adjusts its traveling pace to accommodate the old and the weak. The females within a family observe a strict hierarchical picture system. A dominant mare always leads the group, while others follow her in single file, each with their foals directly behind them. The lowest- ranking mare is the last in line. Although the stallion is the dominant member of the family, he amimal operates outside the system and has no special place in the line. Zebras are avid grazers. Both Burchell''s and Grevy''s zebras are in constant search of green pastures. In the dry season, they can live on coarse, dry grass only if they are within a short distance (usually no farther than 20 miles away) of water holes. Grevy''s zebras are now mainly restricted to parts of northern picture Kenya. If you are looking for african animals then look no further. You can see live feeds of african animals on your computer.
