A large, secretive bird that is found in humid tropical rain forests of Mexico, Central and South America. It feeds primarily on fruit but will also catch and eat small vertebrates and invertebrates. They are on the IUCN Red List as "Vulnerable" meaning that their numbers are in decline.
For a giraffe, drinking water generates a conflict of interest between supplying a vital need (drinking water) and give up controlling foreign's threats. What do you prefer: live or stop controlling?

Portrait of a southern ground hornbill photographed in Kenya.
The southern ground hornbill (Bucorvus leadbeateri; formerly known as Bucorvus cafer), is one of two species of ground hornbill and is the largest species of hornbill. The other species of the genus Bucorvus is the Abyssinian ground hornbill, B. abyssinicus.
Southern ground hornbills can be found from northern Namibia and Angola to northern South Africa and southern Zimbabwe to Burundi and Kenya. They require a savanna habitat with large trees for nesting and dense but short grass for foraging.
The southern ground hornbill is a vulnerable species, mainly confined to national reserves and national parks. They live in groups of 5 to 10 individuals including adults and juveniles. Often, neighbouring groups are engaged in aerial pursuits. They forage on the ground, where they feed on reptiles, frogs, snails, insects and mammals up to the size of hares. Southern ground hornbills very rarely drink:[9] their range is limited at its western end by the lack of trees in which to build nests.

Southern ground hornbill groups are very vocal: contact is made by calls in chorus which can usually be heard at distances of up to 3 kilometres (1.86 mi). The calls allow each group to maintain its territories, which must be as large as 100 square kilometres (40 sq mi) even in the best habitat.

Female lions, lionesses, are able to give birth to cubs all year round, usually from the age of about three or four years old. Pregnancy lasts for around 110 to 120 days. Eventually, when it is time to give birth, lionesses leave their family pride to find a private den in the shelter of bushes, or even a cave.
When they are first born, cubs are very small. They have their eyes closed and don’t open them until they are two to three weeks old. Even then, they can’t see properly for another week or so, so need lots of care and attention from Mum. As they are unable to defend themselves, cubs are vulnerable to attack from large birds and snakes and even male lions.
Lionesses can have as many as six, so they are kept very busy making sure they are all safe.
If there are older cubs already in the pride, the mother must wait until her young are around three months old before introducing them. Older cubs often bully the smaller cubs and steal their milk, so they need to be big enough to stand up for themselves.
Young cubs drink milk from their mother’s teats. It is good for them and helps them to grow quickly. At around two to three months, they begin to eat meat as well with their small milk teeth. At six to seven months old, cubs stop drinking milk altogether.
Cubs are full of life. It is important that they play with other youngsters and adults members of the pride, as this helps them to bond. When playing, a cub can often be seen leaping on another’s back and biting their neck. - Internet
Sloth bear (Melursus ursinus) named "Kartick" born December 27, 2017 to mom "Tasha"and dad "Bhutan" at the Woodland Park Zoo. Sloth bears are native to the Indian subcontinent and feed on fruits, ants, and termites. There are less than 10,000 sloth bears remaining in the wild.

In the beginning, people think vulnerability will make you weak, but it does the opposite. It shows you're strong enough to care.

The Chestnut-collared Longspur has a Conservation Status under the IUCN of Vulnerable www.iucnredlist.org/species/22721040/180649581
Chestnut-collared Longspur is ranked as Vulnerable by the IUCN, due to factors such as residential and commercial development, agriculture, and major transportation corridors. However, at least where this photo was taken, such threats do not come into play since it is within Grasslands National Park (in southern Saskatchewan), the first—and so far only—Canadian federal protected area conserving that habitat. This bird is a male, with the diagnostic chestnut ‘collar’ and black on the breast and belly. It is perched on a species of Sagebrush, a signature plant of the prairies.
Greater one-horned rhino (Rhinoceros unicornis) calf named "Anusha" (born 7/30/19) with her mother "Alta" in the 40 acre Asian Plains Field exhibit of the San Diego Zoo Safari Park.
Conservation Status: Vulnerable primarily due to habitat loss, poaching threats and illegal traffic in rhino horn. There are ~ 3,500 greater one-horned rhinos remaining in the wild, with over 70 percent of the population living in one reserve: Kaziranga National Park in India.
With its rough skin texture and mottled green coloration, it’s easy to see how the Mossy Rain Frog (Pristimantis museosus) is well equipped to blend in with the damp forests in which it dwells. This frog is endemic to the mountains of central Panama, a region which has seen drastic declines in many amphibians over the past few decades due to the introduction of the virulent chytrid fungus. Like other species of Pristimantis, the females of P. museosus lay large eggs that do not require water – the tadpoles transform into froglets entirely within the egg itself. This adaptation may have provided this species with some protection against chytrid, since the fungus most easily transfers among those species which breed in bodies of water. Nevertheless, this frog remains highly threatened and has disappeared from multiple sites across its range. Panamá Oeste, Panama.

On the morning of June 10, the animal care team released 14 live bass into the polar bear's main pool and a bear party followed. All three were in the wagter and all were successful in making multiple catches.
This was the final release of fish (6 of 6) funded by the 2018 Ocelots Grants Program Awards. It's been fabulous enrichments for the bears and for those of us who enjoy watching them.
This is 24 year old Chinook (Ursus maritimus) preparing to eat another of her catches. She often uses her large paws as a plate.

Chunky dark brown raptor with a white belly marked by thin bars. Immatures are brown when perched, and show rufous patches in the underwing in flight. Found in savanna habitats. Soars frequently and sometimes hovers. Very similar to Short-toed Snake-Eagle, but has darker upperparts and narrower dark bars on the belly; the front of the underwings looks white and unbarred in flight.
The bird is sitting on a Euphorbia breviarticulata bush. This succulent can grow to 15 feet tall, and are somewhat vase-shaped. They were quite common throughout the park, and elsewhere.

So often, when we feel lost, adrift in our lives, our first instinct is to look out into the distance for the nearest shore. But that shore, that solid ground, is within us.
The anchor we are searching for is connection, and it is internal!
