Because of this, endangered animals like jaguars, harpy eagles, giant anteaters, and a rare monkey called the black bearded saki are now protected. WWF has also tracked jaguars for years and have shown that conserving the amazon river is very important to them considering they spend a ton of time

During such expeditions, game such as wild pigs, large and small birds, monkeys, deer, rodents, and anteaters, are hunted. The bulk of the Yanomamo food, more than eighty percent, is grown in

over 100 species of butterfly, and about 670 different species of birds! The Savanna and Wetlands also have many species of birds. But these areas also contain buffalo, zebras, giraffes, hippos, elephants, warthogs, the rare giant pangolin (an anteater), and the Cape Eland, which is the largest species of antelope.

Around the mice, other animals in the forest were mumbling about the same thing. “I think Harry the Hedgehog would be an amazing head leader.” “I say we go and confront the leaders and say what we feel!” said an anteater. “YEAH!” shouted some of the animals.
