This is a case of someone’s trail cam unintentionally picking up something that looks like it’s come straight out of a nightmare. It almost looks like it could be Bigfoot… But he doesn’t exist, right? There have been many reported sightings of a large, ape-like creature in various forests and woodland areas.
But, despite many years of investigation and search efforts, no conclusive evidence has been found to prove the existence of Bigfoot. However, some people still believe and insist that Bigfoot is a real animal that has somehow managed to evade detection, and most scientists and researchers are skeptical of its existence.
Coyote
Finding a coyote in your backyard can be a thrilling and sometimes unnerving experience. These elusive creatures are known for being incredibly intelligent and adaptable to new environments. It's not that rare to see them in suburban areas, but if you do happen to spot a coyote in your backyard, it is important to keep your distance.
These animals are wild and should not be approached. If they feel threatened in any way, they could attack. So remember to treat coyotes, as with any wild animal, with caution. The last thing you want is to get bitten by one. You can always contact your local wildlife agency if you see one and need help.
A Pair of Grooming Panthers
According to the Biologists working at the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, these two panthers grooming each other are siblings who were raised at the White Oak Conservation Center in Yulee since they were 5 months old. The FWC panther team leader reported that these two panthers were fit and healthy to be released back into the wild.
As with any wildlife rescue, the ultimate goal is to be able to release the animal back into the wild to aid in the recovery of this endangered species. It's estimated that 100 to 160 adult panthers remain in South Florida. We might not all live in Florida, but it's still great to hear about success stories like this one.
Symbiosis
Here’s an example of symbiosis we never knew existed. For those of you who don't know what symbiosis is, it's when two different species of animals form a relationship that can be mutually beneficial for both. In this example, a possum gets an easy snack and the deer gets a free cleaning.
The most well-known symbiotic relationships are between birds that clean out the parasites from crocodiles' textured skin and fish that eat parasites from shark's underbelly. This, however, is something we haven't seen before. Isn't this neat? We can't help but wonder if deer actively seek out possums for this.
Mama Bear With Her Cubs
Sometimes, a mama bear decides to take a leisurely stroll through the forest with her two cubs would follow closely behind her. On this particular night, Mama Bear stumbled upon a beehive in the middle of the forest. Honey is always a hit with bears, just ask Winnie the Pooh.
Not only are these captures great to see but they also provide biologists and researchers with important data when it comes to animal populations in certain areas. This trail cam is situated in Northern Florida and the data can help protect and conserve different species and help keep the ecosystem healthy.
