LETS SAVE ALL ANIMALS! ARE WE saving ALL animals? or only the cute ones?
we all KNOW that an AMASING favorite of fundraising is the panda! but, not the aye-aye! why? Because we think that pandas are WAY CUTER! But, should the aye-aye not get helped, simply since they're not as cute? As Make Kindness Matter members, we need to fund raise, and help ALL of the animals. not JUST the cute ones. LOOK at the comparison people are making! MAKE SURE TO COMMENT! thank you!
| this is an aye-aye. Sure, its not cute, but should its not cuteness chase away ANY help? With the way we've been treating it, it could go extinct. it is endangered now! |
This is some information that I found online.
This gremlin-looking creature, called an aye-aye, is a primate found in Madagascar.
Aye-ayes have a number of unusual traits, including long, bony, witch-like middle fingers that they use to pry insects and grubs from tree trunks. This allows them to fill a biological niche, much like a woodpecker might. They are also nocturnal, only coming out at night.
Additionally, aye-ayes have incisors that continually grow, which is unusual for primates, and extremely large ears. As it walks along a branch, the aye-aye taps it with its skeletal middle finger. It cups its huge ear forward, listening for the echoes coming from the tree. When it knows it is above an insect tunnel, it tears off chunks of the tree with its massive teeth so it can uncover the tunnel and feast on the insects within.
I learned something new! Aye-ayes may start to become my favorite animal!
