When you are trying to camouflage yourself but you

When you are trying to camouflage yourself but your adorable ears are too big to hide! 🫣

Bat-eared foxes use a combination of physical features and behaviors for camouflage. Their sandy / grayish fur color blends well with the landscape and their raccoon-like face markings make them harder to see from a distance. They are also known for digging extensive systems of burrows and tunnels, providing them with safe places to hide and escape from predators!

🐧 Feeding time! 🐟 Did you know our penguins are all individually hand-fed? Penguins are hand-fed for several reasons!

1. Hand-feeding allows keepers to build positive relationships and trust with the penguins.
2. It allows keepers to closely monitor their health, appetite, and well-being.
3. It ensures that each bird gets enough food, and allows keepers to provide any special supplements or dietary needs for each individual bird.

It's Tooth Time! 🦷 Did you guess the teeth from today's story correctly? 🤔 Swipe to find out...

These are Westley, the Linne's two-toed sloth's teeth! #Didyouknow - two-toed sloths have 4 canine-like premolars that are large and resemble fangs. Sloth teeth also lack enamel and grow continuously, meaning they need to be worn down by chewing to prevent them from getting too long!

Tooth Time is a new series, presented by @deltadentalins of RI, where we share fun facts about our animals' teeth as well as tips to help keep your human teeth healthy!

🦷 Smart Smile Tip: Brushing twice a day for two minutes is essential for reducing bacteria, fighting plaque build-up and removing stains from teeth. www.deltadentalri.com
