Pelican With their immense gular (throat) pouches and equally large bills, pelicans are among some of the most easily identifiable birds. The gular pouch works like a fishing net to scoop the pelican’s prey and the upper mandible of the pelican’s beak acts as a cap over the throat pouch to trap the prey within. Most pelicans hunt in groups in horseshoe-shaped formations to drive fish to shallow waters where they can then be scooped up with ease.  The brown pelican is the only pelican to dive from the air to fish.  As it plunges into the water, the pouch opens like a parachute to slow down the bird, reducing  the impact of the plunge. 📷 : Sony ILCE-A7RM4, FE 100-400 F4.5-5.6 GM ##### 鵜 鵜鶘擁有巨大的喉嚨袋和同樣大的鈔票，是最容易辨認的鳥類之一。 鵝卵小袋的工作原理就像是一個捕魚網，將鵜鶘的獵物sc起，而鵜鶘喙的下頜骨則蓋住了喉袋，將獵物捕獲在其中。 大多數鵜鶘以馬蹄形的形式成群捕獵，將魚驅趕到淺水區，然後可以很容易地將它們撈起。 褐鵜鶘是唯一從空中潛水到魚類的鵜鶘。 當它掉入水中時，小袋像降落傘一樣打開，以減慢鳥類的速度，從而減少了跌落的影響。 ##### 臉書: https://fb.me/tehhanlin IG: https://instagram.com/tehhanlin Flickr: https://flic.kr/vibranze ##### #Singapore #Singaporezoo #zoo #animal #pelican #Sony #SonySingapore #Sonyimages #sonyalpha #natgeoyourshot #yourshotphotographer #wild #sonyalphasg #discoverwithalpha #a7rm4 #Fe100400gm #natgeotravel #a7rmiv #SEL100400gm #nature (at Singapore Zoo) https://www.instagram.com/p/CD6dQfhHpC8/?igshid=utkrgtriqw98

Cheetahs are the world’s fastest land animals. The Cheetah is an animal that runs at extremely high speeds, however it can only do this for a minute or so before its body temperature raises and it becomes overheated, if it does not stop and rest, it can result in death The Asiatic cheetah is now critically endangered, with only about 80 left in Iran. An active pet trade market remains in the Gulf states and live cheetah cubs are being smuggled out of Africa to meet this demand. 📷 : Sony ILCE-A7RM4, FE 100-400 F4.5-5.6 GM ##### 獵豹是世界上最快的陸地動物。 獵豹是一種以極高速度運行的動物，但是它只能在體溫升高和過熱之前一分鐘左右這樣做，如果不停下來休息，可能會導致死亡。 現在，亞洲獵豹正遭受嚴重威脅，伊朗僅剩下約80只。 海灣國家仍然活躍著寵物貿易市場，活著的獵豹崽被走私到非洲以滿足這一需求。 ##### 臉書: https://fb.me/tehhanlin IG: https://instagram.com/tehhanlin Flickr: https://flic.kr/vibranze ##### #Singapore #Singaporezoo #zoo #animal #cheetah #Sony #SonySingapore #Sonyimages #sonyalpha #natgeoyourshot #yourshotphotographer #wild #sonyalphasg #discoverwithalpha #a7rm4 #Fe100400gm #natgeotravel #a7rmiv #SEL100400gm #nature (at Singapore Zoo) https://www.instagram.com/p/CD6RnpCH9qe/?igshid=kmti3wm4jmxh

Black on white A zebra's dazzling stripes make them among the most recognisable mammals. Though none have been proven conclusively, several theories attempt to explain the zebra’s stripes. The first states that stripes have an anti-predatory function by creating an “optical illusion”. The second points to a social role – each zebra is identifiable by its stripes and zebras with broader stripes receive more grooming. The third suggests the stripes help in thermo regulation and work as natural sunscreen. The last says they may protect against tsetse flies. 📷 : Sony ILCE-A7RM4, FE 50mm F1.4 ZA ##### 黑底白字 斑馬眼花stripes亂的條紋使其成為最知名的哺乳動物之一。 儘管沒有一個結論得到證實，但是有幾種理論試圖解釋斑馬的條紋。 首先，條紋通過產生“光學錯覺”而具有反掠奪功能。 第二點說明了社會角色–每個斑馬都可以通過其條紋來識別，條紋越寬的斑馬越容易梳理。 第三條建議條紋有助於溫度調節並起到天然防曬作用。 最後一個說，他們可能會預防采采蠅。 ##### 臉書: https://fb.me/tehhanlin IG: https://instagram.com/tehhanlin Flickr: https://flic.kr/vibranze ##### #Singapore #Singaporezoo #zoo #animal #zebra #blackandwhite #stripe #Sony #SonySingapore #Sonyimages #sonyalpha #natgeoyourshot #yourshotphotographer #wild #sonyalphasg #discoverwithalpha #a7rm4 #Fe100400gm #natgeotravel #a7rmiv #SEL100400gm #nature (at Singapore Zoo) https://www.instagram.com/p/CD58dHeHn-n/?igshid=wwxjpkh8jn70
