Title: One long snout Written by: duddy on Feb 1, 2016 (https://biology-forums.com/gallery/47/4_01_02_16_1_12_06.jpeg) (https://biology-forums.com/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=22855) The aardvark's outsize snout is tailor-made to house a foot-long, sticky tongue that's the perfect tool for extracting termites from their mound nests. Bush-meat hunters are fond of eating aardvarks, but the "antbear" (Orycteropus afer) is still relatively common across sub-Saharan Africa. |
