Continued from previous. Badgers mating outside a Tipperary badger sett. Sows often mate with more than one boar during the year and it is possible that a litter of cubs may be sired by different boars. Generally, only the dominant sow in the group produces viable cubs (usually 2-3). Cubs can forage for themselves at around 12 weeks old but are still dependent on their mother during the summer. The cubs came out last year a few times during the day – so hopefully this will happen again in the late-spring this year. I have been monitoring this sett now for almost 2 years. The badgers had a lucky escape last year when there was some interference to the sett - but when the perpetrators saw my trail camera, they left the sett alone. But the badgers are at serious risk here and this forestry will be felled soon.

The "fossa" is a cat-like, carnivorous mammal endemic to Madagascar. It is a member of the Eupleridae, a family of carnivorans closely related to the mongoose family . Its classification has been controversial because its physical traits resemble those of cats, yet other traits suggest a close relationship with viverrids . Its classification, along with that of the other Malagasy carnivores, influenced hypotheses about how many times mammalian carnivores have colonized Madagascar. With genetic studies demonstrating that the fossa and all other Malagasy carnivores are most closely related to each other , carnivorans are now thought to have colonized the island once around 18 to 20 million years ago. The fossa is the largest mammalian carnivore on the island of Madagascar and has been compared to a small cougar. Adults have a head-body length of 70 - and weigh between 5.5 and, with the males larger than the females. It has semiretractable claws and flexible ankles that allow it to climb up and down trees head-first, and also support jumping from tree to tree. The fossa is unique within its family for the shape of its genitalia, which share traits with those of cats and hyenas. The species is widespread, although population densities are usually low. It is found solely in forested habitat, and actively hunts both by day and night. Over 50% of its diet consists of lemurs, the endemic primates found on the island; tenrecs, rodents, lizards, birds, and other animals are also documented as prey. Mating usually occurs in trees on horizontal limbs and can last for several hours. Litters range from one to six pups, which are born blind and toothless . Infants wean after 4.5 months and are independent after a year. Sexual maturity occurs around three to four years of age, and life expectancy in captivity is 20 years. The fossa is listed as "Vulnerable" by the International Union for Conservation of Nature. It is generally feared by the Malagasy people and is often protected by their "fady" . The greatest threat to the species is habitat destruction. Wiz Science™ is "the" learning channel for children and all ages. SUBSCRIBE TODAY Disclaimer: This video is for your information only.

View this model here: https://www.aboutmedicine.com.au/ischioanal-fossae The ischioanal (formerly known as ischiorectal) fossae are hard to get your head around in 2D, but it's a breeze in 3D. Learn the relations to the pelvic floor, the pelvic organs, and the raison d'être of the fossae themselves. ***** In order to appreciate better the space that is the ischioanal fossa, let's first get our bearings. Here we have the pelvis, which I'm going to make a sagittal cut through. This reveals the 3 organs of the female pelvis - bladder, uterus, and rectum, which becomes the anal canal. The muscles of the pelvic floor support these organs like a hammock. The ischio- anal fossae is directly lateral to levator ani here. It contains mostly fat, and thus acts as a kind of cushion, surrounding the hammock. In this model, we've scraped out all of the fat which fills it. So this opening here, is the IAF. And it's one of those areas of anatomy that is quintessentially hard to grasp in 2D. In 3D it becomes much easier. The space is shaped like a wedge, Like this. I'll bring in the pubic bone for orientation. I hope that geometry makes sense to you. Let's bring in the medial wall, which is levator ani. Now we see that the space exists between the bowl-shaped pelvic floor and the bony pelvis. As I mentioned, it is filled with fat. The cushioning allows the anal canal to expand during defecation. As always in anatomy, the form reflects function. Let's round out the boundaries now, The lateral wall is a bit of bone, obturator internus Floor is deep perineal fascia Post wall sacrotuberous ligament, and some part of gluteus maximus. Now - this view may look more familiar to you. This is the version we tend to see in med school, and if you imagesearch ischioanal fossae this is what appears. I hope now that the dimensions of the space make sense to you. If you'd like to navigate around this model yourself, hit the link in the video description below.

Here's some highlights

The fossa (Cryptoprocta ferox), is a cat-like, carnivorous mammal that is endemic to Madagascar. It is a member of the Eupleridae, a family of carnivorans closely related to the mongoose family (Herpestidae). Its classification has been controversial because its physical traits resemble those of cats, yet other traits suggest a close relationship with viverrids (most civets and their relatives). Its classification, along with that of the other Malagasy carnivores, influenced hypotheses about how many times mammalian carnivores have colonized the island. With genetic studies demonstrating that the fossa and all other Malagasy carnivores are most closely related to each other (forming a clade, recognized as the family Eupleridae), carnivorans are now thought to have colonized the island once around 18 to 20 million years ago. The fossa is the largest mammalian carnivore on the island of Madagascar and has been compared to a small cougar. Adults have a head-body length of 70--80 cm (28--31 in) and weigh between 5.5--8.6 kg (12--19 lb), with the males larger than the females. It has semi-retractable claws and flexible ankles that allow it to climb up and down trees head-first, and also support jumping from tree to tree. The fossa is unique within its family for the shape of its genitalia, which share traits with those of cats and hyenas. The species is widespread, although population densities are usually low. It is found solely in forested habitat, and actively hunts both by day and night. Over 50% of its diet consists of lemurs, the endemic primates found on the island; tenrecs, rodents, lizards, birds, and other animals are also documented as prey. Mating usually occurs in trees on horizontal limbs and can last for several hours. Litters range from one to six pups, which are born blind and toothless (altricial). Infants wean after 4.5 months and are independent after a year. Sexual maturity occurs around three to four years of age, and life expectancy in captivity is 20 years. The fossa is listed as "Vulnerable" by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). It is generally feared by the Malagasy people and is often protected by their taboo, known as fady. The greatest threat to the species is habitat destruction.

Leopards mating in the Kruger National Park WikiPedia description: Depending on the region, leopards may mate all year round. In Manchuria and Siberia, they mate during January and February. The estrous cycle lasts about 46 days and the female usually is in heat for 6–7 days.[70] Gestation lasts for 90 to 105 days.[71] Cubs are usually born in a litter of 2–4 cubs.[72] But mortality of cubs is estimated at 41–50% during the first year.[54] Females give birth in a cave, crevice among boulders, hollow tree, or thicket to make a den. Cubs are born with closed eyes, which open four to nine days after birth.[47] The fur of the young tends to be longer and thicker than that of adults. Their pelage is also more gray in color with less defined spots. Around three months of age, the young begin to follow the mother on hunts. At one year of age, leopard young can probably fend for themselves, but remain with the mother for 18–24 months.[40] The average typical life span of a leopard is between 12 and 17 years.[73] The oldest recorded Spotted Leopard was a female named Roxanne living in captivity at McCarthy’s Wildlife Sanctuary in The Acreage, Palm Beach County, Florida. She died August 8, 2014 at the age of 24 years, 2 months and 13 days. This has been verified by the Guinness World Records.[74] Previously, the oldest recorded Leopard was a female named Bertie living in captivity in Warsaw Zoo. She died in December 2010 at the age of 24.[75] The oldest recorded male Leopard was Cezar, who reached the age of 23. He also lived at Warsaw Zoo and was Bertie's lifelong companion.[76] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leopard

My dogs were taking there naps b4 we went to the dog park and thet tied and yes they are going to be show dogs and i kno about all the other dogs in the world that have no home same thing with humans so

Now that the earliest pups are weaned, the mating season is getting under way in Norfolk, UK on 8 Dec 2009. This male, however, appears to be lacking experience.

My duck was ordered as a pair. The hen had a hard attack. I got two much hens both had heart attacks. Now he been doing this under my back porch. I didnt think he was realling getting this done. And again I stand corrected. If you don't like what you see stopping watching the video. Bc your comments or the STUPID part of you watching the video from start to finish...

Hyenas is the Badass females in the animal kingdom | WILD NATURE. Spotted hyena society is matriarchal; females are larger than males and dominate them. The spotted hyena is a highly successful animal, being the most common large carnivore in Africa. Its success is due in part to its adaptability and opportunism; it is primarily a hunter but may also scavenge, with the capacity to eat and digest skin, bone and other animal waste. In functional terms, the spotted hyena makes the most efficient use of animal matter of all African carnivores. --- Now, you can watch Lion Mountain Media's incredible documentaries and shows anytime you want on Lion Mountain TV Channel at http://www.lionmountain.tv Stream or Buy great wildlife, travel and tourism films and documentaries from our Vimeo-On-Demand site at https://goo.gl/PBLLKK Aquavision’s Archive boasts 15,000+ hours of #HD, #UltraHD up to 8K Natural History media filmed in wildlife parks and reserves throughout African and Internationally.

The relationship & animal mating between living beings have been the key to forming links between individuals in nature. PART 1: Relationship & Animal Mating. Aggressive Male PART 2: Relationship & Animal Mating. Sexual Conflict PART 3: Relationship & Animal Mating. Matriarchal Culture PART 4: Relationship & Animal Mating. Spiritual Relationship ▶ SUBSCRIBE! http://bit.ly/PlanetDoc Full Documentaries every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday! ▶ Full Documentary "Survivors of Planet Earth" http://pdoc.es/SurvivorsPE Since the beginning of life in the sea, adaptation has taught animals to establish relationships with other beings. No one on the planet wants to be forever alone, and all animals surround themselves with more or less complex social structures, to increase the chances of survival. In addition, these relationships are further complicated by sexual reproduction, which implies the need to form couples and take care of the offspring, and this makes it both more possible and more necessary to develop social intelligence. Some animals have developed mating strategies in which stable relationships play no part. Animal mating is essential for the survival of the species. In Australia kangaroos are constantly mate. In the majority of cases, life is more risky for the males, because they either succeed or fail, whereas almost all the females mate. That is why evolution has made the males bigger and more aggressive. The Magellanic penguin is colonial and monogamous, so while some males are mating, others, still single, try to find a partner. But it is not easy. Despite the insistence of this male for mating, the female rejects him because he does not have his own hole in which to lay the eggs. No way is she going to risk reproducing with someone who is not even capable of getting there in time to grab a decent home. For the female, it is very important that the future father of her eggs has his own living quarters. So if this male wants a mate he’ll just have to get here a bit earlier next year for mating. It is the female who must choose the best genes, because her eggs are few, limited and valuable, and what’s more it is they who will have to look after the young. For a male, the cost of an error is insignificant, his sperm can easily be replaced. This male elephant seal weighs 2,500 kilos. He is capable of copulating with one hundred females in a single season, whether they want to or not. He will not be able to eat, and barely sleep, because other males will constantly try to rape one of his females. And that means he will have to fight. If the warning doesn’t work and the invader persists, he will have to show him precisely why he is the king of the beach. For the females, a short rest before continuing. This is called “polygyny” and for the females the evident sexual conflict is a guarantee of both the quantity and quality of descendents. A biological pact which benefits both sides. Almost all animals have one mating season a year, but there are two species for which this is not true: rats and humans. Human females are always sexually active, and childhood is long, so the couple needs to be a stable unit. And that is of enormous biological importance because it is vital for the survival of the young.

(SOUNDBITE) (French) FREQUENT VISITOR TO ZOO, RAYMONDE CONTENSOUS, 67, FROM PARIS, SAYING: "It's absolutely moving because she (the mother) is extremely tender with her babies. We're used to seeing her with her mate, Aramis, and we know her well. But we've never seen her so maternal like this, with her babies. But also, felines are always so moving. Who doesn't fall in love with baby cats? They're a little bigger than others cats, but it's the same thing." 4. BABY JAGUAR WITH MOTHER IN ENCLOSURE 5. MOTHER JAGUAR IN ENCLOSURE 6. POSTER SHOWING FACTS ON JAGUAR 7. (SOUNDBITE) (French) VETERINARIAN AND ZOO'S DIRECTOR OF SCIENCE, ALEXIS LECU, SAYING: "We look after them (baby jaguars) very scarcely, it's the mother that does all the work. It's very tiring work. When we see her on some days, I think that she must already be a little fed up. But she looks after them really very very well. We just manage and anticipate things. You see this platform she came out onto for the first time today, we worked with teams of carers and gardeners to make sure it wouldn't create a trap for the little ones." 8. VARIOUS OF BABY FOSSAS PLAYING IN ENCLOSURE 9. BABY FOSSA EATING MEAT 10. (SOUNDBITE) (French) VETERINARIAN AND ZOO'S DIRECTOR OF SCIENCE, ALEXIS LECU, SAYING: "They're not a feline (the fossa), they look like cats because of their slightly elongated shape, very svelte with very very long tails. They love being in the trees and are very good at climbing and jumping from branch to branch. They grow to up to 10-15 kilos as adults, so they are already beautiful animals. And it's a very solitary species. You don't find groups of fossas, the best you will see is what we have now, a mother and its offspring. Apart from that, they're a species that are always on their own." 11. FOSSA IN ENCLOSURE 12. VISITOR LOOKING THROUGH GLASS INTO ENCLOSURE 13; FOSSA IN ENCLOSURE 14. PARIS ZOO SIGN SAYING (French): "PARIS ZOO, A WORLD TO EXPLORE" STORY: The Paris Zoo unveiled two baby jaguars and three Fossas to the public on Friday (August 24). The newest members of the zoo were moved to their outside enclosure for the public to see. The two baby female jaguars, called Lenca and Aloha, born on July 7, weighed about 4 kilos (2.2 lbs) at birth. They can grow up to eight feet (2.4 meters) in length and weigh up to 120 kilos (264 lbs). There are about 150,000 to 200,000 jaguars left in the wild. Two male Fossas, baptised Telo and Mahani, and a female called Sakani were born on June 8 to much excitement in the zoo, because due to the species' extremely solitary nature, getting them to mate was a challenge. Fossas are carnivorous cat-like animals related to mongooses and are native to Madagascar, where only 2,000 of the species remain, and are in vulnerable state. They can live more than 20 years and grow to weigh 12-13 kilos (26 to 28 kilos). Sujet réalisé en août 2018 pour Thomson Reuters. Maxime Buchot.
