Capybaras are the world's largest rodents

Capybaras are amazing swimmers, with webbed feet that let them move quickly through the water. They can stay underwater for up to five minutes at a time, and press their ears against their heads to keep water out.

A capybara can sleep underwater by keeping its nose above the water line.

Recent giraffe research has revolutionized our understanding of these animals, revealing that there are four distinct species—Masai, northern, reticulated, and southern—rather than just one, with only ~140,000 remaining in the wild. These studies show significant genetic differences, no natural hybridization, and high extinction risks due to habitat loss and poaching, prompting targeted conservation efforts by groups like the Giraffe Conservation Foundation

The african elephants are know as the heartbeat of the savanna. Elephants are known for their vast memory, they can remember individuals, where and how to find food, water, and shelter, and even appear to recall impactful life events. They became endangered after all the poaching and habitat degradation that they suffer.

There are four species of oryx living in Africa and the Middle East. They are large antelopes with long, spear-like horns — with the Gemsbok (Oryx gazella) being the largest of the oryx species. They are a true desert animal, with a thick, horse-like neck; a short mane; and a compact, muscular body. A defined pattern of black markings that contrast with their white face and fawn-colored body are prominently displayed during dominance rituals to emphasize the length of their horns and the strength of their shoulders. Local communities hunt these large antelopes for their meat and hides, and in many cultures, their horns are sought after as charms.

Nile lechwe are native to the nile river valley and are a kind of antelope. Living in the floodplains has caused the antelope to adapt and to be aquatic, they are excellent swimmers and dine on the grasses and other vegetation in their habitat. These antelope live for around nine years, and they live in large herds from 50 to hundreds of them. These beautiful animal is sadly endangered, but it is unknown how many are left due to the fact that the last population count was in 1983. https://animals.sandiegozoo.org/animals/nile-lechwe

Elephants are highly social animals, who live in multigenerational herds. Just like a family an elephant can decide who it wants to spend its time with or if it want to spend its time alone. Sometimes elephants can even have a small disagreements. Elephants usually have a leader who keep the herd on track called the matriarch. The leaders are the ones who find the resources for the herd since these big animals eat about 7% of their body weight. Elephants also have to constantly engage with their environment to see what they need to thrive and live. The leaders are usually the ones who can identify danger as well as being the one to respond to it. When encountering danger or unusual areas, elephants usually stay close together to explore it before they feel safe enough to explore on their own.

Elephants are the world’s largest land animals, known for their large brains, complex emotions, and remarkable memories. They are identified by their long, muscular, and versatile trunks, which are used to communicate, breathe, feed, and grasp objects. Both male and female African elephants, and some male Asian elephants, grow tusks—which are elongated teeth—that are used for digging and fighting.
