Germany, a country with a rich history and diverse landscapes, is characterized by impressive biocultural diversity. From the dense forests of the low mountain ranges to the expansive coastlines of the north, Germany offers a wide range of ecosystems and habitats. The flora is diverse, encompassing a wealth of plant species, including deciduous and coniferous trees in the forests, as well as typical German flowers like the Edelweiss in the Alps. The fauna is also abundant, with a variety of bird species in the forests and wetlands, as well as mammals such as deer, wild boar, and foxes. German culture is closely connected to nature, and the protection and preservation of biocultural diversity play an important role in the country's environmental and conservation movements. Despite urban development and environmental pressures, conserving this diversity remains crucial for Germany's future and the well-being of its residents.
Loki is the first at the waterhole. Her mother Arsinoë watches her and waits. Then Berenike comes sneaking in from behind and takes the coveted place.😜 Keeping in groups is a very special topic in leopard geckos. I wouldn't advise beginners!
In German literature, group housing is often recommended. But that's based on misunderstandings.
Leopard geckos are most often loners in nature. But there are also huge aggregations, in particularly suitable places.
In some cases, they already show signs of social behaviour, such as gaze following. But they also can be very brutal! You have to offer them plenty of space and hiding places and analyse their behaviour. It's very interesting!
In this video you can see that the geckos have a clear relationship to each other. If this were not the case, they would now vibrate with their tails. And then possibly make a small exchange of blows, or get along immediately. Every now and then this has to be clarified.💕
Hello, I'm a sloth!🙋 This is my baby parrot Fusilli!🐒 It doesn't think much of specifying its gender.🌈 It can be anything it wants!👑 We live the free pirate life and feel at home everywhere!🗺 Arrrgh! 🐌🌈💘
What? A narcissus on Instagram?😂 Should I tell you a secret?🙃 I found most of you based on certain criteria. An essential criterion of this is authenticity! As a nature lover, I like real people. You do without this whole idealized self-portrayal. That is why I like you very much and you may also like yourself very much!💖 Actually, this beautiful flower doesn't deserve it's name. Fortunately, it can also be called daffodil.☝😏 Narcissism is an addiction to yourself. The pathological desire to give yourself love because it doesn't come from the outside. Narcissistic people therefore often feel alone and displace their own self.
Self-love, on the other hand, is the acceptance of your own personality, the acceptance of what and how you are. It means trusting yourself, respecting yourself and appreciating your own worth. Self-acceptance plays a crucial role in this.
I am an introvert man with a flowery nature and that is exactly what I am good at!😊🌻
In Christian culture, the snail has been used as a symbol of the deadly sin of sloth. In Mayan mythology, the snail is associated with sexual desire, being purrsonified by the sexy God of Annual Misfortune, called Wayeb. I must say it feels very good how my baby slides on me! 😶🐌💘
Small piece of coprolite 🐊💩 A coprolite is fossilized feces. It gives evidence for the animal's diet. I got it as a gift a few years ago. It's from the United States and it's labeled as "Dinosaur poop". But that doesn't mean that it comes from a dinosaur. Maybe there is someone here who can tell something about it?🙃

Just a bark-eating zophoba beetle. In addition to isopods and springtails, they take care of the cleanliness of my corn snake terrarium. They cope better with the conditions in the terrarium than isopods and springtails. In the nature of their Central and South American homeland, they feed on guano from fruit-eating bats. In my terrarium they eat undiscovered remains of my snake. However, you should make sure that the zophobas don't take over. They could become a stress factor and life risk for the main residents. The larvae also like to eat styrofoam, from which many back walls are made. They eat almost everything! That's why it's important to keep an eye on it. Since zophobas pupate only in isolation, there is only a small risk of overpopulation (depending on the interior). Also, the larvae from the terrarium shouldn't be fed to other animals because this could spread diseases. If you notice that they become too many, you can put wet pieces of bark in the terrarium. An hour later you collect the bark together with the larvae and kill them friendly in the freezer. The easiest way is to collect the adult beetles and allow only a few to lay eggs. Because of these peculiarities, I cannot fully recommend it, but I have had good experiences myself. We're all pioneers with different experiences.
