What do you know about the five rare animals in the world?

1, tamarind monkey

Emperor tamarind monkeys are primates. Its name comes from its beard, which is similar to that of German monarch William II. Although the name came from a joke, it became a formal name.

This tamarind monkey mainly grows in the rainforests of Brazil, Peru, Bolivia and other countries, and is also found in Acre and Amazon in western Brazil.

Step 2 tapirs

There are only four species of cassava in Cassavaceae, which is the most primitive Chiroptera. It is characterized by four toes in its forelimbs and three toes in its hind limbs. They are like pigs, but bigger than pigs. They have retractable short noses and are good at diving and swimming.

In China, tapirs are mainly distributed in South China. In the world, tapirs are distributed in Southeast Asia and Latin America. All tapirs have been extinct except the existing "close relative" Malai tapirs in Southeast Asia.

3. Blind eels

The blind eel is a round-billed animal. It is hermaphrodite, with a body like a river eel and sharp horny teeth in its mouth. Its sense of smell is also extremely sensitive to the touch of tentacles, and it can quickly perceive the arrival of big fish.

Blind eels have long lived a parasitic life in fish. It is absorbed by the sucker on the big fish, and then drilled into the belly of the fish from the gills. After the blind eel parasitizes in the belly of the fish, it will eat the internal organs first and then the meat, leaving only the skin and bones of the big fish. People once found 123 blind eels in a snow fish, calling them fish thieves.

4. Pink Elf Armadillo

The pink fairy armadillo is the smallest in the armadillo family, only 90- 1 15 mm long, and its body color is usually white rose or pink. They dig holes near the nest and feed on ants.

This kind of armadillo lives in the dry grassland and desert full of thorns and cacti in central Argentina. When in danger, it can completely hide itself in a few seconds.

5. Folding umbrella lizard

Pleistocene dragons can reach 80 ~ 100 cm in length in adulthood, and usually feed on insects, spiders and small mammals. When the lizard is provoked, the wrinkles on its neck will stand up, as if its head suddenly expanded several times, and at the same time, it will open its mouth and hiss angrily to scare the enemy.

This bluffing behavior of the umbrella lizard often catches many fierce animals and scares them all. If it can't retreat from the enemy, then it will run away, relying on two hind legs to escape quickly.
