Dangerous Animals
Instinct and experience are ne-eded to raise animals. If the ani-mals get into a situation where they feel threatened, they must be able to show their strength and use their top physical chara-cteristics to survive. And woe to him who doesn’t take care! Ani-mals often attack to gain food or to prevent the assault of an ene-my which was not scared off . Such an attack can be very dan-gerous for the intruder as well as the one which is attacked.

Ultimate Predators
The behaviour of predators has always intrigued us. How they hunt for food, guard their territo-ry and social status. At first, they seem to be cold-blooded. Once we observe various beasts of prey or killer whales, we realize that there is only one law in nature: those who are strongest survive. And those are the predators.

Wild Cats
Meow…these cats are true be-asts of prey and rulers of the-ir territories. The jaguar is the largest American beast of prey in the cat family, tigers are Asi-an loners and lions have been cal-led the “kings of the animals ” for as long as people can remember. The ocelot lives in the subtropical belt of the American continent and is an excellent swimmer, whilst the serval is able to dig up rodents from their dens. Feline beasts of prey have much in common with each other….as well as with your own cat.

Animal Battles
The animal world is full of fighting –fighting to defend territory, when rivaling for a female, when foraging for food and when defending oneself from hung-ry predators. Fighters only a few centimeters long battle just as obstinately as giants which are several hundred kilos large. They fight with their mandibles, hoo-ves, horns, antlers, claws, teeth and tails. As long as there is not a hunt for prey on, nature rarely allows the adversaries to get seriously injured; life is too precious for that.
