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.

Al nimr

Highly adaptable big cat with the widest geographic range of any felid, found across Africa, the Middle East, and South Asia in habitats from rainforest to desert.
