Delfin Kabir

The most studied and recognized dolphin species, bottlenose dolphins inhabit warm and temperate oceans worldwide, from coastal shallows to the open sea. Highly intelligent with large brains relative to body size, they demonstrate self-recognition, complex communication, and social learning. They live in fluid fission-fusion societies and cooperate to herd fish. A keystone indicator species for marine ecosystem health.

Gray-headed Lovebird

The only lovebird species native to Madagascar, gray-headed lovebirds — also called Madagascar lovebirds — are among the most sexually dimorphic lovebirds, with males having pale grey heads and necks contrasting with bright green body plumage, while females are entirely green. They inhabit forest edges, scrub, and cultivated areas of Madagascar and have been introduced to some neighboring islands. Relatively little kept in captivity compared to African lovebirds. Listed as Least Concern.
