Don’t you just love animals? They bring a smile to your face, especially when they are unique in their own special way! Check out these three one-of-a-kind types of species.

The first one is the seal. The seal doesn’t know it, but he’s actually a spy who is trying to find out info about how climate change is affecting the ocean habitat. Scientists apply a harmless glue to stick a camera onto the seal’s head. The best part is that they can “‘go where boats and scientists can’t,’ Antarctic marine ecologist, Sara Labrousse says,” (Bethany Augliere 10). The seals go way down into the sea, but the trackers fall off sometimes. So it’s hard to obtain information from very deeply in the sea. Even though there’s limited information, some things are better than nothing.

The next organism we’re going to take a look at is the white panda. You know about black and white pandas, brown and white pandas (maybe), but have you ever seen…the white panda? Is it harmful? No, I don’t think so. Is it normal? No. Trust me, if it appears on the news or is said by a panda biologist never to have been seen before, it must be very rare. In fact, even rarer than the brown and white panda! Its eyes are pink, though. There’s only one explanation for this. This animal has albinism. This is a condition in which the skin, hair, and fur are white, and the eyes are pink. The eyes don’t function properly, which is a problem. It might not survive, but luckily, it’s still alive and healthy.

Here is the last one! The chimps from a zoo always video call with another zoo. This was used to solve the problem for these primates to be kept enthralled and beguiled. Initially, the chimpanzees were trying to petrify each other by making themselves look preeminent and powerful. Then, a few meetings later, they began to calm down and even started to make friends with one another by bringing each other treats. When you do something over and over and over and over, you will easily get bored of it. Soon, the chimpanzees will no longer be intrigued and inquisitive about the video calls with the other chimps in the other zoo.
