Until now, frogs are still considered one of the most harmless species in the world. We often use them as food, pets and sometimes a lovely model for a certain animation. However, this is not true for some frog species that reside in tropical rainforest areas. Among these poisonous species are frogs Pacman - one of the frogs with a lovely appearance, a pretty 'hot' pet. This species hides itself in a potential danger that one should pay special attention to if he misses it so much that he wants to take it back.

The exact name of this frog is Ceratophrys ornata , and it is also called the Argentine horn frog . It is voracious, it will try to swallow anything that moves near its wide mouth, such as insects, rodents, lizards and frogs. The most striking feature of this frog is its mouth, which accounts for about half of its overall size. Common colors are bright green with dark red or green markings. These frogs are known for their courage, it can cause extremely scary wounds with sharp teeth. Even in South America it is said orally that this species can kill both horses grazed in the field.

Horse species can be considered very familiar to us. Extinct ??? This may sound unreasonable but it is true that we only have mostly domesticated horses to feed. The horse has many subspecies and some Tarpan horse species have gradually become extinct. The last Tarpan horse in the world died in a Ukrainian race in 1876. Many other wild horses also fell into the same situation. In general, most horses in the world now are purebred horses and live in captivity.

Over thousands of years, the loss of this species has occurred in many other species. The impact of the environment is also affected but the main reason is still the way people treat nature. In the case of Tarpan horses, the main cause of this extinction is the habit of deforestation for timber for housing and farmers killing because they often destroy crops.

Cats and dogs are the two most popular pets in the world. We are still very close to them through feeding, playing and training . However, this is also a source of parasitic infection and disease for humans.

There is a parasite called Toxicariosis that is thought to be quite harmful. They reside in the waste of cats and dogs. If people are infected with this parasite, we will face digestive depression, fever, shortness of breath and, in some cases, blindness if not treated properly.

There are many birds that are often raised as pets. Typical examples are: sparrows, canaries, parrots . However, there are probably many people who will be surprised to know that some people also prefer hummingbirds - a species of honey-sucking birds.

And the problem is that everyone knows that this bird is very difficult to keep. For those who have this 'poison' hobby, they must have their own equipment and methods. The bird cages are equipped with honey instead of normal food or protein powder, in addition can decorate a certain kind of flowers create a feeling of closeness. Some hummingbirds can beat their wings more than 50 times per second. Hummingbird breeders need to understand hummingbird's body very small, its wings beat very fast and its body temperature is very high. This shows that hummingbirds need a lot of energy from food sources. Once these hummingbirds lack food, they will immediately be sluggish, beating their wings more slowly to save some of the energy remaining in their bodies.
