(1) Lion is very lazy for hunting. A male lion in the wild usually makes no more than twenty kills a year. Generally 90% hunts are done by lioness. But, lion always take over 70% share of flesh per hunt, and 30% are for lioness & cubs.
(2) It is astonishing that some male songbirds sing more than 2000 times per day.
(3) The first commercially cloned pet was a cat named “Little Nicky.” It costs 50K USD to clone it.

And it was established by Edward VII, and then The prince of wales. This zoo is the biggest attraction of the tourists in the "City of Joy". However, the Alipore Zoo has some notable historical value as it's the most old zoological garden in India. The zoo was also famous for the home of "Aldabra giant tortoise". But, in 2006 the tortoise died at the age of almost 250. There are now over 1266 animals of 108 species are living in the Alipore Zoo. And annual visitors of the zoo is about 3 millions. **I captured some photos, but, due to the obstacle of the fence I couldn't take them very clearly. * Giraffe To be continued ...

The Real Face Of India - Episode 14

The Real Face Of India - Episode#14 (Jorasanko Thakur Bari) I believe that India is the most beautiful country in the world. In this series I show the real face of beautiful India. This is the famous “Thakur Bari (Tagore’s Home) Jorasanko “where Rabindranath Tagore was born in 7 May, 1861. This is also the place where Tagore spent most of his childhood and died on 7 August 1941. This home was built by Maharshi Debendranath Tagore (Rabindranath’s father) in the 18th century on the land donated by the famous Sett family of Burrabazar to Prince Dwarkanath Tagore (Rabindranath Tagore’s grandfather). I’ll post a series photographs of this place here – Outside look Outside closer look Tagore Museum Rabindra Bharati University located on the opposite of the Tagore’s House A flower garden outside of the home A perfect look Snap taken : 24 Dec 2016   Camera : Xiaomi, Model : 2014818 Other Episodes :  Episode#01 ,  Episode#02 ,  Episode#03 ,  Episode#04 ,  Epi
