Is it a zebra or is it a donkey? No, it's a "ceburro"

No, it is not a pun.The birth of this beautiful zeburro is the result of a hybrid cross between a zebra and a donkey. As often happens with zebras and donkeys , creating unique and sympathetic zebrasans that raise so much expectation among animal lovers.
This curious phenomenon has recently originated in a small Crimean zoo, where apparently some species coexist quietly with the others, until in the end nature has played with chance to create a new tenant whom they have called «Telegraph» .If the purpose of zoos is precisely to conserve all species at risk of extinction, it seems that biology has taken a step further to offer us this little gift: the ceburro.

Ceburro.The sympathetic hybrid of the zoo

The ceburro born in Crimea has received the original name of «Telegraph» in honor of a newspaper of l country .As you can see in the picture his whole body is reminiscent of that of a donkey, but its legs are painted with the typical strokes of a zebra.A precious nature that, unfortunately, can not reproduce when I become an adult.This is what usually happens with these curious hybrids, as is the case with mules (crosses between donkeys and horses).

Image of the little zebrasno with his mother
Telegraph is the star of the Zoo, nobody can deny it.The main attraction they are looking for large and small, and what has made it increase the collection of this small installation of Crimea exponentially.Although this kind of thing do not like biologists and veterinarians too much .These crosses never occur in larger zoos and with more control over species They never allow animals from different families to join together, hence the case of this ceburro has not been received with much joy.They do not consider it at all as something "normal."
But those responsible from the Crimean zoo they have received Telegrafo with the greatest congratulations.Moreover, according to what they say, the mother of the animal was already alone for a long time, without mating with other males of her kind.That is why they decided to put her next to other ungulates...so he wouldn't die of sadness.and then when a true love story arose with an attractive ass , who courted her immediately.
Another case has occurred in recent months in Mexico.Again in a Small zoo, where they offer total freedom to the species, and again...a zebrasno.The truth is that it does not matter that these species are not very natural and that they result in sterile animals.They are healthy and happy creatures, curious animals endowed with a unique beauty, as is the case with ligres .Do you know what it is? They are wonderful animals, the result of the crossing between a male lion and a tigress. They are the largest cats in nature.

And you, also "procrastins"?

And you? Procrastines too? If you don't, we are sure that you know someone who does it continuously and that, surely, makes you despair.But what does this disturbing word really mean? Let's give an example: you have been dating a person for a long time, you make plans for the future, you have many illusions and projects, however, your partner never seems to decide.He is unable to formalize your relationship because something like that, not only overwhelms him, but even He is lazy. "Are we not well like that?" I often reproach you. Let's give another example: you may have the classic friend who never seems to finish his studies.It is easy to be an "eternal" university student who faces the responsibilities and anxieties of the working world. And what about people who spend all their time in front of a computer screen letting out "real life" ? Sometimes, it is much easier to let ourselves go, evading responsibilities, than to put means t...

One of the first people to realize this strange phenomenon was Karstein Erstad, a professor of biology, who watched as worms fell to the ground surface while he was skiing in the mountains near the town of Bergen.According to his testimony: “When I saw the worms in the snow, it seemed that they had no life, but when I took one of them, I saw that it moved and was alive ”, I comment to the local newspaper of the city, collected by Daily Mail.

Judging by the image, it is exactly the same as one...We discover the answer to the riddle! The sperm of the Temple of Luxor In the exterior of the Temple of Luxor There is a religious scene in which the God Amon-Min appears with a erection, ejaculating, in which a sperm is perfectly represented (as you can see in the following video).

The man who killed 40,000 elephants by mistake

Sometimes people, with the best will , make unforgivable mistakes .This is the case at hand: The man who killed 40,000 elephants by mistake. The man who killed 40,000 elephants by mistake As paradoxical as it may seem, The cause of this disaster was an ecologist convinced: Allan Savory .Allan was born in Rodhesia (now Zimbabwe) in 1935.He belonged to a family of farmers and throughout his childhood he heard that the herds of wild animals ended with the pastures of the extensive African grasslands.Overgrazing was considered for decades the cause of desertification .Because of this, the land was no longer susceptible or of feed the flocks or be cultivated ada .This inevitably led to famine and, therefore, to conflicts between the various human groups that populated these areas. Following that philosophy, between 1955 and 1969 , Allan Savory worked in North Rodeshia and later in South Rodhesia as an independent research and scientific officer .His role was t...

What will humanity be like in 1000 years?

We are taller, we live longer and we are healthier than ever.Besides, thanks to advances in technology, we can search almost any imaginable piece of information on Google (along with kitty videos). What will humanity be like in 1000 years? That is what has happened to the human species in the last 1000 years or so, but what will happen to us in the next millennium? Some scientists offer fascinating and provocative answers , about the color of our skin and the shape of our body, even how long we can live. As we go further in the future , the increase in temperature, accompanied by the deterioration in the protective ozone layer, will make the skin darken as part of an evolutionary improvement, since it will protect us against UV rays.temperatures can also affect our size. We will have longer and thinner bodies to better dissipate excess body heat. These remarkable changes would take more than 1000 years to appear, But the idea that the human being of the future will chan...

Better to study shortly or long before for an exam? You'll be surprised!

Is it better to study months before an exam or in the previous days? A study reveals the best method! Better to study shortly or long before for an exam? You will be surprised! Are you one of those who study the day before the exam even though they have always advised you otherwise? Now, science says that you might be right to do so because studying when stressed or under pressure favors learning . This is what scientists at the University of Bristol have said, discover that the hormones that are produced when stressed are causing changes in the cells, allowing memories to be stored more effectively in the hippocampus, the part of the brain related to memory. According to the Professor Hans Reul, who directs the research, stress hormones, such as cortisol and adrenaline, change genes within neurons and increase their learning capacity . This The phenomenon is called "epigenetic modification", an alteration of the genome of cells to reprogram DNA in the brain and ...
