Description

The giraffe is the tallest land animal in the world. It has a yellowish colored coat dappled with brown, and an extremely long neck. Although its body looks long and thin, the giraffe is very heavy, and weighs about the same as an elephant, hippopotamus or rhinoceros. Most people think giraffes are slow runners, but they can actually reach speeds of up to 60km/h. Giraffes feed mainly on leaves, which they pick from the branches of tall trees with their tongues. They are docile creatures, but their hooves have a powerful kick which means we should keep our distance.

Description

The whooper swan is a large type of waterfowl, whose adults reach lengths of up to 140cm, with wings as long as 60cm each. While their bodies are predominantly white, some feature yellowish markings on the head and neck. There are no color differences distinguishing males and females, but cygnets younger than one year old are gray with brownish streaks, the area around the top of the beak a pinkish white. Also, adults can weigh more than 10kg, which is quite heavy for a flying animal. Take-off requires the assistance of a run-up. Whooper swans feed mostly on the stems and roots of aquatic plants, and their main breeding ground is northern Eurasia, Iceland, etc. This papercraft is about one half the size of a real Whooper Swan.

Description

Tigers are the largest members of the feline family. They inhabit a wide area of land, stretching from Siberia to north-eastern China, India, and Indochina and make their habitat mainly in rainforests, mangroves, and boreal forests (taigas). Tigers are not fast runners. However, they are able to jump amazingly well, a skill they make use of when sneaking up and pouncing on their prey. The hair on their back is yellow with black, horizontal stripes. Tigers found in the northern regions tend to be light yellow in color while those in the southern regions are more orangish. For food, tigers eat almost anything depending on what they can find in their place of habitat, from insects (locusts, etc.) and small animals to large ones such as deer, wild boars, and cows.
