They also wear blue shirts with purple triangles, and they work at a comic book shop.
is this a lie
Do they like humane meat?❤🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈🐱🐱🐱🐾🐾🐾🐾
Nepal have also cougar
Interesting. Thank you for sharing that info.
I can give you an experienced warning about cougars; Watch out for ones that go to church on a regular basis, and profess to love JESUS. Because like every woman they're right about everything, but the JESUS followers use religion to further convince themselves they're right about everything.
Taj is so funny
I love cougars🐆
Alpaca is the best but also there's facts about the alpaca The alpaca is a species is a species of South American camelid mammal. Traditionally, alpacas are kept in herds that graze on the level heights of the Andes of Southern Peru, Western Bolivia, Ecuador, and Northern Chile. Today, alpacas may be found on farms and ranches around the world, with thousands of animals born and raised annually being especially popular animals in North America, Europe, and Australia The Alpaca Family: Camelidae
I love tigers🐅
They look so pissed 😆
Beautiful animals. Thank you for sharing pertinent information about them.
Beautiful birds but no thank you! I quit breeding cockatiels because I couldn’t take the noise and the seed mess when they couldn’t be kept in the walk in aviary in the winters. 🙉
I was expecting an Aussie accent
Parrots in general don't make good pets, unless you've done your research and know what you're getting into, and prepared to make the lifelong commitment (including possibly having to put the parrot in your will, as they can outlive you, depending on the species). I made the mistake of getting a Goffins Cockatoo back in 1994, thought I was prepared, had read up and done research. But they are very needy and destructive. They are very social and need constant attention. I had her 4 years, but I realized it just wasn't working out, because towards the end, she started feather plucking. I ended up finding a new home or her with someone who was a bird person and could give her the proper attention she deserved. Ironically, I had 3 pet foxes over the course of 20 years, and they were much easier to care for than the bird! (Keep in mind I volunteered at a wildlife rescue that specializes in foxes, so I learned how to properly care for them over the course of my years there and was more sure of what I was doing - I also wouldn't recommend pet foxes to the average person!)
Teddy bear
he is so pretty!
I have some experience with cougars who lives next to my home in rural Arizona. I have worked with wolves, and lived with them, so I speak their language, and I do not fear bears, however, the mountain lion used to frighten me, as they seem to be etheric, almost spirit-like. I have been trailed by them and not known it, in fact men I worked with were also tracked by them, their feet-prints in the dirt alongside ours. However, recently, in 2023, I discovered that a group of cougars were living directly under my home in a wash, bones, skeletons, and bits of flesh and feathers were scattered about, right under where I have been living for 13 years. Previously, I had spotted a number of mountain lions, via night vision optics, that were watching me, in the bush, just a few feet away from me. It was unnerving how close they were to me. --caution, warning, the following experience is esoteric, religious, and paranormal.-- I had been, practicing a form of return to nature, by wandering without clothes, into the more wild areas near where I live, and only bringing a blade as protection- as the nature spirits did not like my firearm(s). One evening, while communing with nature in the dark, my attention shifted, to where a mountain lion (physically) was watching me, as they had been, for years, now. Previous to this, a cougar caterwauled one morning, under my bedroom window, which for me, sent chills up and down my spine, as she was, directly under my window. I noticed the lion, watching me, as I stood naked, at a yurt in the forest, however, I felt absolutely no fear- the opposite, in fact. I was three shots of rum in, which no doubt helped ease my interaction with her, however, what happened next, changed my life... This lioness, a she-cat cougar, opened her heart to me, as she lay in the brush, not even twelve feet from me. In a brief moment of deep, intimate, and true connection, I felt she honored my vulnerability, and she was able to speak to me, fully- on a level that not even humans share with one-another- she spoke to me from her heart. She, in that moment of pure connection, was able to survey me, in all of my being, and she saw the fear I had, of her and her people (Felines, more specifically, big cats.) She spoke to me, as with perfect English, in that enchanted encounter, and she showed me, after opening her genetic memories up to me- of all felines- how often her people watch us humans, every dy, every-where, especially in India, she showed me- and how easily we would be her prey- and, yet- she asked me, "And, how often do we hunt you, attack you, kill you, or eat you?" I had to be honest- "Almost never." Gracefully, she ran a course tongue down one of her tawny legs, and looked off, towards my home. "I watch you often." She said, showing me- that there was not a single trace of anger, hunger, or malice towards me. She identified herself, as the in-heat lioness, caterwauling for me, under my bedroom window, and later told me, she scent marked my outdoor possessions with her heat-urine. "You know I am a human, right?" I jokingly asked her. She showed me, her ancient memories, of felines- bonding with humans- even assisting us in our survival, and entire tribes, and later, civilizations- erased from our own genetic memories- but still thriving in hers- how the big cats took humans, "under their wings"- and how, the memories of these unions, still burned in the hearts of Big Cats. I will never forget, the union, between the female big cat, and myself, in that cool evening, under the moonlight. She told me, not to be afraid- and actually, found it comical, that I was even slightly concerned about her harming me- or my dogs- that had been living, not even fifteen feet from her home! I had mistakenly, in the night vision, mistaken her for a racoon that stole one of my pizzas, and I shot at her, thankfully, with a very small caliber rifle- but after the bullet struck her, I saw her, turn to look at me, the look of sheer disappointment- the hurt, of all of nature in her eyes, and yes- she did roar at me, not to follow her into the ravine- on rare occasion, they DO roar, apparently when wounded and angry- and, when she opened her heart to me, from the sincerity of my heart, I apologized to her, and she replied, she had no malice towards me over it. To this day, I carry now, a lack-of fear of her, and her people, male, female, I have no further fear of big cats- and my connection to her people, is something I enjoy even today. I asked her, if I took her up on her offer, what our lives would be like, together, and she told me, she would be, "Like my dog", with the caveat that, she would pee on everything I own, and I would smell like I bathed in cat-piss. I chuckled at that, knowing, she was right! And, God help any human that tried to injure me- as the reality of the big cats is, they are death itself, moving with a grace and strength that makes humans shiver- though she again, reiterated, she has no desire to harm us (humans), felines are unmatched predators on this planet, and if it were not for our weapons, they would easily rule us. Thankfully, the Tawny Lords decided to help us humans, which is why felines are so revered in many human civilizations, even today. In the space that this cougar shared with me, in some, serene oasis of esoteric wisdom, Sekhmet was also there, one of the original Tawny Lords. I wish more humans were open to receiving the wisdom of the cat. As with wolves and dogs, the human race owes its existence, in part- to the cat, who could easily have used us as prey throughout time, but chose to help us, instead.
Alpacas rock and go llamas! 🤘🏻
I saw a cougar once. I was riding my bike uphill, and I spotted it about 50 yards away. When I saw it I stopped and got off my bike. That was when it realized it had been spotted and turned around and ran away.

Blue throated macaws are the closet parrots to look like Jewel. Just put one next to a hyacinth macaw and you got a real life Blu and jewel lol.

In 2021 a beautiful female cougar gave birth to two cubs. The cubs are now as large as the mother. We have met many times on my property and respect each other from a distance. 😼😾😼❤️
I love all of the animals in the cat family.
love All cats but cougars are my fav
I am a staunch dog person. But I do adore cougars (not talking about the human ones). So many humans have had close encounters (within a few feet) and never known it. They are masters of stealth, god level grace and surefootedness, able to bring down animals as large as a moose and have a scream that can cure any case of constipation. And if you think a box of kittens are cute; you should see (but not very close) cougar kittens. Talk about cuteness overload! If I were going to have a cat, it'd be a cougar (yeah right).
Perfekt 👌 66 kilo

jaguarundi is a different species
2:30 Thats something you can literally thank God for. I mean, how else do they get those black spots for such a purpose?
Love all animals land and sea love my Cougars
Cougar mountain lion puma Florida panther these cats are the same cat but with different names
Really cool vid, it’s a shame that people aren’t usually interested,
South America? Well, I've never heard any stories about Cougars and Jaguars crossing paths.
the cougar is the largest small cat on earth. which is scary
They are making their way back East, especially the Appalachians.
2:20 kangaroo + fox + mongooses trait's?
1:45 It's look's to me, like sort of a dog stance ( sometimes when you see those hong kong kungfuw ) So, they happened to have a brilliant IQ and can stance position all their bottem limb muscle like some stool bench stances
1:00 I don't think it's like our physical pouch or the one's on an aprons But by biologically, their tummy & sometimes it's actually because of their DNA they tend to grow their waist bone pretty vast in very small amount of time and that's what make them feel comfortably just hopping instead of running And because of that, by it's DNA thus forces the thick tummy skin upwards and accidentally does an upward pouch .. and basically you know this can take off about thousand year's of evolution
