Hippos are most active at night, when they forage for food. They are herbivores, and eat mostly grass – and boy do they eat grass! In just one night, they can guzzle down up to 35kg of their favourite grub!🌱🦛

The Yellow-billed Stork has an interesting way of catching food. Instead of visually searching for prey like many birds, it hunts by touch. The stork wades through shallow water with its long bill partially open, feeling for frogs, small fish, insects, and other aquatic prey items. When something brushes against its bill, it snaps shut in a lightning-fast reaction. This feeding method is called tactile foraging and it allows them to feed in murky waters where visibility is low.

Let's not forget the true meaning of Christmas this year.

Today, we celebrate the birth of our Savior, remembering God’s love that came down to us. "For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given, and the government shall be upon His shoulder. And His name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace" (Isaiah 9:6).

As we reflect on this gift of peace and joy, may your home be filled with the light of His love. Wishing you a blessed Christmas overflowing with His grace and goodness. 🎁

A banded mongoose's ideal home is an old, disused termite mound. The mongoose prefers this as it has many entrances and exits, therefore they never feel trapped in and have plenty of air holes. They are quite nomadic little creatures, which means they like to move around from place to place.
