... have to admit - you don't have to know that exactly. But there are lots of interesting questions concerning animals. During times when many species are in danger of extinction, there is growing interest in them and the wish to get informations. These pages want to make a little contribution to raising interest for animals and answer questions, providing texts about our co-inhabitants. They are not a complete encyclopedia but a collection of articles, which are published in loose sequence. In addition there are the corresponding animal pictures, of course.
