Which bird have sharpest eye sight?

 

I actually was not hundred percent sure what bird would have such sharp eyesight, of course, I thought that it must be eagle but for confirmation I have research a bit in Internet and was nicely found that it was true. Eagles are gorgeous and majestic bird. They are usually big sizes and also have such wide wingspan between 1,8 m to 2,3 m and we also know that they can fly very high. Often they do their nests high on mountains and rocks, that is why it is quick difficult for others to get to their nests and get their eggs.

From history we know that eagles were popular in nomads while they were hunting in Steppes, so they usually grow the birds since they are young and get used to human and get adopted to the environment. Hunting using eagles was one of the way of existence of of nations in Eurasian. Nowadays some of the folks still keep this tradition.

Eagles have the sharpest eyesight and can see they prey from the distance of 2 miles away, so they are unbeatable record holder.

I knew that animals from cat family or they are also called family Felidae, such beautiful name. Of course in order to be fast the animal should be light and understandably should have long legs and one of them with such features is Cheetah, that is a large cat, that has fur with round black spots. The place where you can find it in wild nature is eastern and southern Africa.

Traditionally cheetahs hunt the animals from antelope family, it is not easy task but due to their long legs they can reach the speed between 80 to 130 km/h, that is actually the speed of normal cars and what cars allowed to drive on motorway. With such speed their prey has very little chance to run away.

 

Which is most endangered animal internationally?

There are many animals that belong to endangered animals because of activities of us, humans, we love hunting to get a very special example of our hunt, souvenir from our trips and prove of our sharp shooting.

I found that Javan Rhino is considered to be the most endangered species and there are 76 of them living in National parks. They have folded skin of their body that is due to gravity is hanging down on some areas of their body and that is why they look like armour. I believe that is also a reason why sometimes in cartoons Rhinos can be displayed as wearing armours too.

The natural area where they lived Indonesia, India and Vietnam, now majority of them are in protected national parks.

I hope you also learnt something interesting today and I would like to invite @dave-hanny, @meriseptriyanti @djvijay for the contest.
