Animal India - Lynx Spider

Lynx spider (Oxyopidae) is a family of araneomorph spiders. Most species make little use of webs, instead spending their lives hunting spiders on plants. Many species frequent flowers, in particular, ambushing pollinators. They tend to tolerate members of their own species more than most spiders do, it's exhibiting social behavior. Lynx spiders, in spite of being largely ambush hunters, are very speedy runners and leapers, alert and with good vision. Oxyopidae in general rely on keen eyesight in stalking, chasing, or ambushing prey, and also in avoiding enemies.

              Yellow Paper-wasp Nest - Animal India

              The yellow paper wasp (Polistes olivaceus), also known as tattaiyas, is recognized for its strikingly vivid yellow coloration, an uncommon characteristic among wasp species. Their unique thermal regulatory system enables them to thrive in various climates. The Indian yellow paper wasp lays 10-20 eggs after establishing a nest. The eggs take about 6.5 days to develop into immature stages, and the entire colony cycle lasts about 270 days. Yellow paper wasps play a significant role in the ecosystem as pollinators and by preying on certain insect pests. They construct paper-like nests that resemble umbrellas. The yellow paper wasp has a stinger at its tail, which can sting people. However, it is not aggressive and rarely attacks humans unless it feels threatened. Nevertheless, it should be treated with caution as its sting is very painful and can cause redness and swelling. The photo of the yellow paper wasp nest was taken in Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on May 16, 2024. (Photo by Soumyabrata Roy/NurPhoto)

                    Golden Jackals Cubs - Canis Aureus - Animal India

                    Two wild golden jackal (Canis aureus) cubs are venturing from the forest to search for food in the Tehatta area of West Bengal, India, on May 15, 2024. They are occasionally being seen playfully chasing birds or monitor lizards for hunting. The golden jackal, the largest of the jackals, is resembling a small wolf but has a comparatively more slender build, shorter legs, and a shorter tail. The jackals' habitat is being reduced due to lack of food and shelter, and the pressure of urbanization. An omnivore is an organism that is eating a variety of other organisms, including plants, animals, and fungi. (Photo by Soumyabrata Roy/NurPhoto)
