1. Tigon        The tigon's genome includes genetic components of both parents, thus, they can exhibit visible characteristics from both parents: they can have both spots from the mother (lions carry genes for spots - lion cubs are spotted and some adults retain faint markings) and stripes from the father. Any mane that a male tigon may have will appear shorter and less noticeable than a lion's mane and is closer in type to the ruff of a male tiger. It is a common misconception that tigons are smaller than lions or tigers. They do not exceed the size of their parent species because they inherit growth-inhibitory genes from both parents, but they do not exhibit any kind of dwarfism or miniaturization; they often weigh around 180 kilograms (400 lb)   2. Zebroid      A zebroid is the offspring of any cross between a zebra and any other equine to create a hybrid. In most cases, the sire is a zebra stallion. Offspring of a donkey sire and zebra dam called a d

Chrysopelea, more commonly known as the flying snake or the gliding snake, is a genus that belongs to the family Colubridae. Flying snakes are mildly venomous, though the venom is dangerous only to their small prey. Their range is in Southeast Asia, southernmost China, India, and in Sri Lanka. COMMON NAME:  Flying Snakes SCIENTIFIC NAME : Chrysopelea TYPE : Reptiles DIET : Carnivore SIZE : Up to 4 feet They creep, They hiss, They.... fly? Don’t let their wingless bodies fool you snakes in the lowland tropical forests of Southeast and South Asia can glide as far as 100 feet through the air. They push off from tree branches while rotating their ribs to flatten their abdomen, making side to side movements as they glide.    Flying snake is a misnomer, since, barring a strong updraft, these animals can’t actually gain altitude. They’re gliders, using the speed of free fall and contortions of their bodies to catch the air and generate lift. Scientists don’t kn

COMMON NAME :  Mountain Goat SCIENTIFIC NAME :  Oreamnos americanus TYPE :  Mammals DIET :  Herbivore AVERAGE LIFE SPAN IF BRED IN CAPTIVITY :    9 to 12 years. SIZE :  Height at shoulder: 3.5 feet WEIGHT :  100 - 300 pounds Mountain goat , ( Oreamnos americanus ), also called  Rocky Mountain goat , a stocky North American ruminant of the family boviedae order artiodactyla . Surefooted relatives of the chamois, mountain goats cling to steep cliffs in habitats ranging from ocean shores to glaciated mountain tops. They are agile, methodical climbers, adapted to the insecure footing of snow-covered and icy cliffs, where predators are loath to follow. On these cliffs, they readily turn on their pursuers, including humans. Stocky climbers with muscular legs and broad hooves, mountain goats stand about 1 metre (39 inches) at the shoulder. Large males can weigh more than 120 kg (260 pounds), and females weigh about 60–90 kg (130–200 pounds). The hair is coarse, white, and shaggy o

1.Berries (fresh or frozen)        Berries contain antioxidants compounds, which may protect your cells from damage linked to cancer. They may also boost your immune system. They contain polyphenols, including ellagic acid and anthocyanins – antioxidants that counteract, reduce and repair damage to cells. 2.Bok choy Bok choy contains folate. Folate plays a role in the production and repair of DNA, so it might prevent cancer cells from forming due to mutations in the DNA. Bok choy also contains vitamin C, vitamin E, and beta-carotene. 3.Broccoli     Health describes how broccoli is a wonderful addition to your arsenal of cancer fighting foods, All cruciferous veggies (think cauliflower, cabbage, kale) contain cancer-fighting properties, but broccoli is the only one with a sizable amount of sulforaphane, A recent University of Michigan study on mice found that sulforaphane also targets cancer stem cells, those that aid in tumor growth.  4.Brussels spro
