s. This male is different, he doesn't hunt alone, he has learned that there is strength in numbers, but here.

There are not just two but three tricksters, a band of brothers, they have changed their tactics and in doing so, they have taken their prey by surprise, they have learned that by working together they can take down large prey, an ostrich, a bird that towers over a cheetah. and it is More than twice as heavy, it cannot fly to escape danger, but it can hit a woman who does not yet realize the danger with a fatal kick, even with three of them, this is still very risky if one is injured and the other two don't. I hope to be able to take on such big prey, on the other hand, if they do well, the rewards are huge.

The male has seen one of the brothers, but only one, he is not too worried. Suddenly, there are three. The female takes longer to realize danger and cheaters. changing targets it takes the combined effort and weight of the three brothers to take down this powerful bird even now the ostrich could deliver a fatal kick so far the brothers are winning the ostriches have yet to find a way to thwart such a TS in what high in the Rocky Mountains One of the largest gatherings in the Wild West is underway for most of the year. Bison, bulls and cows live separate lives, but for a few weeks in late summer, thousands congregate in this Yellowstone valley.

The chick responds and little by little they approach each other. The chick's inrees demander stimulates the adult to regurgitate a mouthful of fish upon the return of one parent. The other is free to go to sea to feed himself, aware of the presence of the leopard seal. The penguins press together on the edge of the ice, not wanting to be the first to risk submersion.
