The Real Queens of Wakanda IV: Carnivores Galore
In my last three articles that make up The Real Queens of Wakanda series, I have placed African American zoo and aquarium professionals in the spotlight by sharing their stories and ensuring that each of these women got to have a voice and share their stories. Yet, the series was not intended to just focus on African American female zoo professionals but all zoo and aquarium professionals of color. This includes Asian and Pacific Islanders, Native Americans, Asian Indians, people of Arab and Middle Eastern descent, and Hispanics.

Life lessons from nature
I know this is a pretty weird title for a short article, but hear me out. My neighbour has a rusty orange cat, she is an angle most of the time, but in the other hand she is a crazy one. I mean, I`m not exactly sure if she knows that she is a house cat and not a wild tiger or lion. I don`t think she got the memo. Do you know why am I saying this?!

This year has been a strange one, that’s for sure. As summer passes and the nights start to draw in, one could be forgiven for thinking things cannot get much weirder. However, things may just be about to get a whole lot weirder...

Ranking of the most dangerous animals in the world
1.The size of a blue-ringed octopus is only the size of a golf ball, but its flat surface is enough to kill 26 people in a few minutes. Attack until you start to feel paralyzed. At this point, the eyes begin to lose sleep, and then the respiratory system will stop working completely.

Meeting the Yellow Eyed Penguin
“Do the penguins know we’re here?” asks the little girl. “Yes, they do,” replies Dan, our tour guide and penguin expert. “But because we’re looking at them through such a small hole in the wall, the penguins can only see very little of us and so they think that we’re smaller than them and not a threat”.

It's not just us
It’s not just us In the aftermath of BETA, our little Village has been devistated by the debris and damage brought on by the storm surge. Some homes that once stood majestically facing the Gulf are now in shambles with exposed wiring, plumbing and the like not to mention the destruction to their living space, decks, concrete pads, missing stairs and damaged pilings rendering them unsafe. Despolating changes affecting the beach itself as the dunes once proudly protecting our homes have been turned into ruins and in most cases washed away with back to back blasts from Mother Nature this year. Awe 2020 the year from a hot place! We will not soon forget the year that brought our lives to a halt and now depredation to our quaint little village.

The Birds of the Seas
The Dolphin is one of the most beautiful and lively marine creatures on this Earth. It sings underneath the Oceans of this world and jump out of the waters to ‘see’ the world we live in. They are graceful, sleek swimmers and can reach speeds of more than 18 miles an hour. They are playful and often frolic in a boat’s wake, leaping out of the water --- mainly for fun but also to communicate and shed pesky parasites.
