December 17, 2024 - Red-billed Dwarf Hornbill (Lophoceros camurus) These hornbills are found in parts of western and central Africa in forests and wetlands. They eat insects, some lizards, and rarely fruit, foraging in groups at lower levels of the forest and on the ground and often following squirrels and driver-ants to feed on fleeing insects. Possibly breeding cooperatively, they nest in tree cavities where females remain sealed except for a small hole until leaving the nest halfway through the nestling period to help the males.

IUCN Status - Critically Endangered

Location: Philippines - Panay and Negros islands

Thought to be rare even before human disruption, this species is now suffering from extensive cutting and logging of its lowland forest habitat. It was also a victime of hunting and nest robbing for the pet trade, though local efforts have reduced nest poaching by 95%.

MAY THE WORST BIRD WIN

[birdstudies]

November 1, 2023 - Tanzanian Red-billed Hornbill (Tockus ruahae) Found in Tanzania, these hornbills live in savannas and woodlands, especially those with baobabs and acacias. They feed on insects, including ants and beetle larvae, as well as seeds, and may also eat other arthropods, small vertebrates, and fruit, like closely related species. Their breeding behaviors have not been studied, though they likely nest in cavities.

[intothetlkverse]

Decided to challenge myself by drawing every single TLK character out there, up until this point in time, and post it here. You can see the finished project on my main account, though I figured to post it on my tumblr just show I could proudly show off my work and a few of my head canons.

Here are all the hornbills across TLK:

Starting off is the OG 'red-billed' hornbill, majordomo for Mufasa and Simba's reign, the king's left-wing bird, Zazu(answer-Igbo) and nieces and nephews, Binti, Mwana, and Zinga. Binti(daughter) originally comes from the January 1996 draft of TLK2 and is meant to be Zazu's girlfriend in this, however I hold the idea that Zazu is a "I'm married to my job" guy, though he is slowly getting into spending time with Timon's mom as he begins to consider retirement. Binti here is Zazu's niece though Babazu, and while she gets along with her uncle, she's too much of a free-spirit to be bogged down by such a hefty position like king's left hand man. Jicho and her brother Mwana will be a more suitable successors. Mwana's(son) is more diligent, knowledgeable, and calm unlike his sister, and also took an immediate liking to his uncle and expressed an interest in the tasks associated with being a majordomo, so Zazu agreed to have him apprentice under him as a future scout. He doesn't belong to TLK media and is my character, but I figured I'd add him and Zazu's father just to fil, in the family tree. Lastly we have Zinga, Zinga/Uzinga(honey), Zazu's niece and these two's cousins from from "The Bird-Sitters". Uzinga is very mischievous and daring, picking that from her stepmom and occasionally making it difficult for others to talk/control her, but she's very sweet and enthusiastic, able to endear herself to others quickly, and is best friends with her cousin and Babazu's daughter Binti.

Next up are Zazu's siblings, Babazu(father-to) and older sister Nazu(back-Igbo), mentioned in the phrase "There's one in every family, sire. Two in mine, actually", though apparently they were meant to be the names of the deleted tickbirds on Herr Rhino who egged him on as he chased Simba and Baasho. For the longest time they weren't speaking with Zazu, mostly since he originally didn't decide to try to be the next majordomo while they both were attempting to learn from their mother, the previous majordomo of Ahadi/Uru's reign, though Zazu just happened to help Mufasa out with finding and helping out his future wife Sarabi and thus scored the position. The two eventually moved out and it wouldn't be until a few seasons later, when they had both started families and Zazu was well established as Mufasa's majordomo that they began to reconnect, trying to rebuild the strained relationship. The statement Zazu says about them to Mufasa is in reference to how the two purposefully missed out his announcement and introduction ceremony to the Pridelands out of envy, something both of them regret now. Beside Nazu is her wife Uju(honey), who was Zazu's girlfriend from "Heartbreaker Zazu". They did use to date, though between his demanding job and their opposite personalities(Zazu being more strict and rule-abiding while Uju being more free-spirited and daring), the two amicably broke up. She would eventually get together with Zazu's sister Nazu and together they had Zinga together.

Next up are Zazu and his siblings' parents, Jafari(creek) and Zuzu/Uzuzu(nonsense). Zuzu was Ahadi's majordomo from "A Tale of Two Brothers", and Zazu's predecessor. Jafari is my own character, though I figured to add him in just to ensure consistency with the family. He is the kind, supportive, and emotional parent compared to his strict, overbearing ex-wife. He's the more popular grandparent, getting involved in both his kids and grandchicks lives and being there to  be the supportive dad. As for Zuzu, she's spent her entire life being the ideal hornbill majordomo. She's built up a reputation of being reliable, knowledgeable, and an involved majordomo, which is to say that she is a busybody, gossip, and often snobbish. She was insistent on having a legacy of majordomos within the pride, so she really pushed for her chicks to follow in her wingbeats, causing a wedge to form between them that only increased when Zazu proved himself to be the next candidate for the role, and so she devoted most of her time and energy into grooming him into being the next majordomo. While Zazu can say he enjoys his work, his mother's overbearing, snobbish, and insensitive teaching methods formed a rift between them, and finally, after mouthing off a few too many times about the new king Mufasa, Zazu finally tore her a new one and demanded she leave him alone. Infuriated and humiliated, she did. Zuzu returned back to stay with Jafari in the time being. Jafari had divorced her during the early part of Mufasa's reign after seeing how her actions had turned their chicks against them and moved with his kids to a neighboring territory, though being the gracious, kind soul he was, allowed her to stay close by, though their kids keep her on a leash when it comes to interacting with her grandchicks. At the moment, she's seen as the crabby old lady whom her kids keep a close eye on to ensure she isn't trying to stir up unhealthy competition or unhealthy goals in.

Next up we have Kigali(watch-Igbo), a Southern yellow-billed hornbill from Operation Pridelands, one of Zazu's scouts and closest childhood friend. Kigali spent most of his life exploring and experiencing the world, so when Zazu reunited with him after his release from Scar's tyrannical rule, he entrusted Kigali with help trying to find and bring back the the herds and animals which had left to return back to the Pridelands with the message that there was a new king. Kigali is friendly, wise, and very knowledgeable, though he also has a quick wit and tendency to tease. He and Zazu often will greet each other with snarky, friendly insults, though they are all in the spirit of fun. He also has similar British accent. He also is the father of several chicks, to which Zazu plays uncle for them too.

Beside him is my take on TLK 2019/Broadway Zazu, so meet Uzaz(answer). A red-billed hornbill/Von der Decken's hornbill hybrid majordomo for the Zinari Pride of my "TLK2 but slightly to the left" project. Uzaz is snooty, condescending, and prideful, though he is able to get the job done. He does have a rivalry with the neighboring pride's majordomo, a malachite kingfisher named Zuza, though over time they're relationship has gone from rivals to 'rivals', but with a softer edge'. The two constantly make jabs and pecks at each other, critiquing the other's style, methods, appearance, likes/dislikes, choice of hangout place, choice of best romantic areas, what date is their first meeting anniversary... yeah the two get married in the end.

Lastly are Kigali's many, many chicks from "Greedy Is As Greedy Does". Sort a Billy Goats Gruff, but with hyenas and hornbills, the our hyena trio of Shenzi, Banzai, and Ed find little Ibo/Ibhoko(goat-Zulu) by his lonesome and plan to eat him, but he namedrops his bigger sister Sibo/Sibuko(mirror-Zulu), and the hyenas agree to 'help him find' his sister. When they do, Sibo mentions their big sister, Kibo, prompting the hyenas to go and find her, and the two eventually lead the hyenas to their flock and massive family, whereupon, seeing the multitude of hornbills, promptly drop the two chicks off and flee for their lives. Ibhoko and Sibuko are the youngest and last chicks of the two, though the Kigali and his wife Gibo/Gimbaya(princess-African) have seven lovely chicks, composed of six older daughters and the youngest their son. From oldest to youngest, left to right, we have Zibo/Ziba(gorgeous-Arabic), Hibo/Ihubo(hymm-Zulu), Mibo/Omi(water-Yoruba), Kibo/Kibra(jungle-Arabic), Dibo/Idibo(vote-Yoruba), Sibo,Sibuko, and Ibo/Ibhoko. Their mother started this tradition of naming her chicks and give them nicknames of 'letter' + -'ibo'. Each one of their chicks are are beautiful as their mother and as strong as their father, or vice versa as their mother would say. I used the wiki with the comic for reference for the names, though aside from Ibo and Sibo none of them have any identifying features, so I kinda had to use the other hornbills in the background and go off from there and my design for Kigali. Also the wiki does mention several names for Ibo/Sibo's sisters that aren't in the comic itself, which I'm gonna assume is an error, though I decided just to go with both the names mentioned on the wiki and said in the comic. Gibo, for example, was supposed to be a sister, but is only mentioned in the wiki and not in the comic, so I decided just to add her in and make her Kigali's mate and the mother of the seven. They do go by the nicknames as a family tradition, though mostly its used by Kigali.

All animal species (and a couple algae) that have kept the same scientific name since Linnaeus

The first work of taxonomy that is considered as having any scientific authority for animal species was the 10th edition of Linnaeus' Systema Naturae, published in 1758. (Also a book on spiders called Aranei Suecici, published one year before.) That's the foundational text of the binominal system of nomenclature of species still in use today. Since then most of Linnaeus' original species (4379 species, of which 185 mammals, 554 birds, 217 "amphibians" (including reptiles and cartilaginous fish), 379 fishes, 2104 "insects" (including various arthropods, of which 664 are beetles and 543 are moths & butterflies crammed into only 3 genera), and 940 "worms" (including basically all other invertebrates, and even some protists and algae)) have been dismembered, renamed, or at least moved to different genera (e.g. the house sparrow went from Fringilla domestica to Passer domesticus).

Here is a list of all of Linnaeus' original species from 1758 that still retain their original name. I believe they are 484 in total.
