Cape ground squirrel! 🐿
In nature, they often share their burrows with meerkats and / or yellow mongooses.

The Sumatran tiger is the only surviving tiger population in the Sunda Islands, where the Bali and Javan tigers already extinct. The species is listed as "Critical Endangered" on the Red List. Zoos like the Frankfurt Zoological Garden try to breed them. The success is very important for the preservation. Since 2017, there is a new male. But he doesn't harmonize with the female. Therefore, it's necessary to exchange with other zoos to preserve this rare animal.

A nutria near the Nidda river in Frankfurt, Germany. These rodents, originally native to South America, have spread throughout Germany since 1926. Although they are very friendly and cute, you should neither feed nor touch them!

Last year I visited the only zoo for microbes in the world. Micropia! It's worth it! There should be a lot more such zoos, because these insights are fascinating! 👌🔎🔬

Today he would have celebrated his 57th birthday.
I don't need to say that I've always been a huge fan of him.
