1.  Mangalitsa pig

 

The mangalitsa pig was originated from Hungary and was discovered in the 19th century. It can have blond, red or black wool. This is the only pig that has a unique wool. The saddest thing was that it was almost extinct in the 1990’s because of their meat.

 

2. Emperor Tamarin

 

Emperor Tamarin was called this because it looks like the German Emperor Wilhelm II. The Emperor Tamarin measures only about 10 inches long or 26 centimeters but their tail can reach up to 16 inches or 40 centimeters. They are not fully vegetarian and they can eat things like flowers, nectar, fruits, frogs, snails, and even small birds.

 

3. Blue Footed Booby

 

The Blue Footed Booby lives at the Galapagos Islands and if you go there they may look dumb and clumsy but they are excellent flyers and swimmers.

 

4. Malayan Colugo

 

The Malayan Colugo is known as the flying lemur but this things is wrong, because it can’t fly nor is it a lemur. They have a flying membrane and they can glide long distances. They can weigh from 1 to 2 kg.

 

5. Markhor Goat

 

The Markhor Goat can grow six feet or 180 centimeter from head to tail. What is even more surprising is that their horn can reach up to 5.2 ft or 1.6 meters long, but that’s only for males that use them for fighting in mating season. Females only grow 10 inches or 25 centimeters.
