這隻大傢伙拍得不夠好，無法完整呈現出牠的風采，Mojö的白犀牛可說是旗下產品的精品之一，噴色表現樸實，整體給人一種很安靜的感覺。

白犀 (資料來自於維基百科)
白犀（學名Ceratotherium simum），又名白犀牛、方吻犀，是現存五種犀牛中個頭最大的，體形僅次於大象，共有兩個亞種。其中北方亞種主要分布於非洲東部和中部的烏干達和尼羅河上游，南方亞種主要分布於南非，約有20,170頭野生白犀，是數量最多的一種犀牛。白犀的名稱由來沒有公論。事實上白犀的身體顏色與黑犀沒有很大區別，其區別主要在於比較大的體型，和寬大的嘴唇。一個常見的說法是白犀牛的白字是來自於荷蘭語的「wijd」，意思是「寬」，最早移民非洲南部的歐洲殖民者荷蘭人用寬嘴唇這個特徵來和尖嘴唇的黑犀牛區分，之後說英語的人將「wijd」誤譯為「white」，即「白」，使得這個名字誤導世人。事實上荷蘭語中，也是用「黑」、「白」來命名這兩種犀牛，而且即使早期荷蘭語文獻中也從來沒有「寬」、「窄」犀牛這樣的提法。

白犀生活在非洲大草原，主要以草為食。一天中一半時間用於進食，三分之一的時間休息，剩下的時間則做其他的事情。和其他犀牛一樣，它們也喜歡呆在泥漿中，以降低身體的溫度。白犀以群居爲主，它們會組成最多可達14頭犀牛的群體，其中主要是母犀牛，未成年的公白犀會聚集在一起，跟著一頭成年母白犀生活，公白犀則基本是獨居，以糞便和尿液劃分領域。只在交配的時候在一起生活。交配的白犀會一起生活2-3天甚至幾周。


White rhinoceros (information from wikipedia)
The white rhinoceros or square-lipped rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum) is the largest and most numerous species of rhinoceros that exists. It has a wide mouth used for grazing and is the most social of all rhino species. The white rhinoceros consists of two subspecies: the southern white rhinoceros, with an estimated 17,460 wild-living animals at the end of 2007 (IUCN 2008), and the much rarer northern white rhinoceros. The northern subspecies has very few remaining, with seven confirmed individuals left, with only four still able to reproduce (Including those in captivity).

White rhinoceroses are found in grassland and savannah habitat. Herbivore grazers that eat grass, preferring the shortest grains, the white rhinoceros is one of the largest pure grazers. It drinks twice a day if water is available, but if conditions are dry it can live four or five days without water. It spends about half of the day eating, one third resting, and the rest of the day doing various other things. White rhinoceroses, like all species of rhinoceros, love wallowing in mudholes to cool down. White rhinoceroses produce sounds which include a panting contact call, grunts and snorts during courtship, squeals of distress, and deep bellows or growls when threatened. Threat displays (in males mostly) include wiping its horn on the ground and a head-low posture with ears back, combined with snarl threats and shrieking if attacked. The white rhinoceros is quick and agile and can run 50 km/h (31 mph).

Papo的爬蟲類生物系列延續了該廠商在恐龍方面一貫的製作水準，拿在手上把玩相當有份量感，立體感十足的鱷魚皮甲與兇光外露的小眼睛皆為亮點，可惜的是口腔塗裝層次稍嫌單薄(沒有做出舌頭)，鱗片的塗裝也有提升空間。

尼羅鱷 (資料來自於維基百科)
尼羅鱷（學名Crocodylus niloticus）是一種大型鱷魚，為全數23種鱷魚當中被人類研究最多的一種。尼羅鱷長4-5米，大鱷可達8米；吻闊略呈長三角形，上頜每側有牙齒16-19枚，下頜每側14-15枚；軀幹背面有堅固的厚鱗甲6-8縱列；四肢的外側有鋸齒緣，趾間有蹼。體色背面為暗橄欖褐色，腹面淡黃色，幼體顏色較淡，有黑色的斑點及網狀花紋。其下顎第四齒由上顎的V字形凹陷中向外面突出。尼羅鱷非常強壯，尾巴強而有力，有助於游泳。成年尼羅鱷的體重可以重達一噸。

尼羅鱷出現在非洲以及馬達加斯加島，主要棲身於河流及湖泊之中。自公元9世紀開始，牠們已經成為人類的獵殺對象，因為牠們的皮於當時非常名貴。目前在尼羅河一帶，尼羅鱷已經絕跡。

Nile Crocodile (information from wikipedia)
The Nile crocodile is an opportunistic apex predator and a very aggressive species of crocodile that is capable of taking almost any animal within its range. They are generalists, taking a variety of prey. Their diet consists mostly of different species of fish, reptiles, birds and mammals. The Nile crocodile is an ambush predator and can wait for hours, days and even weeks for the suitable moment to attack. They are quite agile predators and wait for the opportunity for the prey item to come close within the range of attack. Even swift prey are not immune to attack. Like other crocodiles, Nile crocodiles have an extremely powerful bite that is unique amongst all animals and sharp conical teeth that sink into flesh allowing for a grip that is almost impossible to loosen. They can apply high levels of force for extended periods of time, a great advantage for holding down large prey underwater to drown.

Nile crocodiles are very social crocodiles. They share basking spots and large food sources such as schools of fish and big carcasses. There is a strict hierarchy, that is determined by size. Large, old males are at the top of this hierarchy and have primary access to food and best basking spots. Crocodiles know their place in the hierarchical order and rarely act against it, but when they do, the results are very bloody and sometimes even fatal. Like other reptiles, Nile crocodiles lay eggs to reproduce, which are guarded by the female. The hatchlings are also protected for a period of time, but hunt by themselves and are not fed by the parents. The Nile crocodile is one of the most dangerous species of crocodile and is responsible for hundreds of deaths of humans every year. It is a rather common species of crocodile and is not endangered.

灰熊(資料來自於wiki百科)
灰熊（學名：Ursus arctos horribilis）為棕熊亞種，分布於北美洲西部，是北美最常見的棕熊。灰熊的祖先被認為是10萬年前從西伯利亞跨過白令海峽來到阿拉斯加的烏蘇里棕熊。灰熊通常獨居生活，但是在沿海地區，灰熊在鮭魚產卵的季節會聚集在溪流、河流、湖泊和池塘周圍。雌性灰熊每隔一年生產1至4頭幼崽，通常為2頭，每頭幼崽重量僅為500克。母熊嚴密保護其幼崽，在認為自己或幼崽受到威脅時，便會進攻。

棕熊是分布最為廣泛的熊類之一，在亞洲、歐洲和北美都能找到它們的足跡。灰熊的祖先在大約5萬年前從歐亞大陸遷徙到北美。在演化的過程上這屬於最近才發生的事件，因此北美灰熊和亞洲及歐洲的棕熊習性相似。

Grizzly Bear (information from wikipedia)
The grizzly bear (Ursus arctos ssp.) is any North American subspecies of the brown bear, such as the mainland grizzly (U. a. horribilis), the Kodiak (U. a. middendorffi), the peninsular grizzly (U. a. gyas) and the recently extinct California grizzly (U. a. californicus). Specialists sometimes call the grizzly the North American brown bear because the grizzly and the brown bear are one species on two continents. In some places, some may nickname the grizzly the silvertip for the silvery, grizzly sheen in its fur. Since the mainland grizzly is so widespread, it is representative and archetypal for the whole subspecific group. Even so, classification is being revised along genetic lines.[1] Its closest relatives are the European cave bear and the polar bear.Except for females with cubs, grizzlies are normally solitary, active animals, but in coastal areas, grizzlies gather around streams, lakes, rivers, and ponds during the salmon spawn. Every other year, females (sows) produce one to four young (usually two) which are small and weigh only about 500 grams (1 lb). A sow is protective of her offspring and will attack if she thinks she or her cubs are threatened.

The word "grizzly" means "grizzled;" that is, golden and grey tips of the hair. This is not to be confused with the word "grisly". Nonetheless, after careful study, naturalist George Ord formally classified the California grizzly in 1815—not for its hair, but for its character—Ursus horribilis. Thus Ord made a famous pun. Indeed there were many accounts of grizzlies fighting and beating longhorn bulls.

C家的另一款爆冷門動物，紅河豬可算是豬類中毛色最鮮豔的一種，這頭豬臉部長滿凹凸不平的肉瘤，尖長的耳朵與背部的鬃毛也有做出來，可謂小品佳作。

紅河豬 (資料來自於互動百科)
紅河豬分佈於非洲、非洲野豬屬，分佈在非洲大陸的撒哈拉沙漠以南地區和馬達加斯加島林地及潮濕草原（有13個亞種）；體長100-150釐米，尾長30-40釐米，體重50-130公斤。毛色磚紅至黑灰色。頭頂至脊背有一條淺色毛，耳尖長，端部亦有毛。最典型特徵為雄性的眼下有疣，面部有鬢，鬢毛花白。懷孕時間約127天，乳頭3對。壽命10-15年。

紅河豬，在高草和葦叢中掘洞為巢，晝伏夜出，以家族小群活動，主食植物根塊、漿果、莖葉、野果。善游泳，性兇猛。歲尾年初為產仔季節，每產5-6仔。紅河豬分佈於非洲中部、西部廣大地區，主要是在雨林地區，體色更接近於紅色，也叫西非藪豬。


Red River Hog (information from wikipedia)
The red river hog (Potamochoerus porcus), also known as the bush pig (but not to be confused with P. larvatus, common name "bushpig"), is a wild member of the pig family living in Africa, with most of its distribution in the Guinean and Congolian forests. It is rarely seen away from rainforests, and generally prefers areas near rivers or swamps.Red river hogs eat grasses, berries, roots, insects, molluscs, small vertebrates and carrion, and are capable of causing damage to plantations. They typically live in herds of six to 20 members led by a dominant boar, with sows rearing three to six piglets at a time.

The red river hog has striking red fur, with black legs and a tufted white stripe along the spine and fantastic ear tufts. They have white face markings around the eyes and on the cheeks and jaws; the rest of the muzzle and face are a contrasting black. The fur on the jaw and the flanks is longer than on the body.The red river hog lives in rainforests, wet dense savannas, and forested valleys, and near rivers, lakes and marshes. The species' distribution ranges from the Congo area and Gambia to the eastern Congo, southwards to the Kasai and the Congo River. The exact delineation of its range versus that of P. larvatus is unclear; but in broad terms, the red river hog occupies western and central Africa, and the bushpig occupies eastern and southern Africa. Where the two meet, they are commonly held to interbreed, although some authorities dispute this.

鼎鼎大名三大鯨之二，目前網路價格將近4000元台幣，也不知未來會不會再度回到市場，這頭鯨魚經由代購之手，從海外購物網飄洋過海來到家中，抹香鯨身體中後段皮膚表面的摺皺忠實呈現，這點與其他鯨類平滑緊實的皮膚不同，兩個鼻孔位置也正確刻畫到位。和三大鯨忠的灰鯨相較之下可謂各有千秋

抹香鯨(資料來自於wiki百科)
抹香鯨（學名：Physeter macrocephalus，又稱巨抹香鯨、卡切拉特鯨）是世界上最大的齒鯨。牠們在所有鯨類中潛得最深、最久，因此號稱為動物王國中的「潛水冠軍」。可能只有喙鯨科的兩種瓶鼻鯨在潛水方面能與之比擬。除了過去被視為頭號目標的捕鯨時期以外，抹香鯨可能是大型鯨中數量最多的一種。美國作家梅爾維爾的經典名著《白鯨記》，書中那頭神勇的大鯨莫比·敵克就是一頭抹香鯨。種名 macrocephalus 源自希臘文，意為「大頭」。抹香鯨另有一種名 catodon，同種異名的情況過去曾引發長期的爭論，現 macrocephalus 為主流用語。與身軀比較，抹香鯨的頭部顯得不成比例的重而大，具有動物界中最大的腦，而尾部卻顯得既輕又小，這使得抹香鯨的身軀好似一隻大蝌蚪。成年雄鯨的頭部尤為突出，一般頭部占身軀全長的四至三分之一，外表大致呈方體。它的鼻孔就位於這個巨大的長方體頂部左前方的兩側。異常的是，抹香鯨雖有兩個鼻孔，但只有左側鼻孔暢通，用來呼吸，而右側的鼻孔則天生阻塞，這致使抹香鯨在浮出水面呼吸時，總是身軀偏右，水霧柱以約45°角向左前方噴出。

抹香鯨廣泛分布於全世界不結冰的海域，由赤道一直到兩極都可發現牠們的踨跡，其中以深且富生產力的海域為最，此類抹香鯨常出沒的地區過去捕鯨者習慣稱之為「基地」。因為抹香鯨的潛水時間很長，在海面上看到的機會不大，但其特殊的外形與噴氣使其不易與其他大型鯨類混淆。兩次下潛的間隔抹香鯨會在海面漂浮或緩慢游動，外觀上很像巨大的漂流木；左傾約45度的噴氣低矮而呈樹叢狀。經常有躍身擊浪或鯨尾擊浪的動作。

Sperm Whale (information from wikipedia)
The sperm whale (Physeter macrocephalus), or cachalot, is the largest of the toothed whales and the largest toothed predator. It is the only living member of genus Physeter, and one of three extant species in the sperm whale family, along with the pygmy sperm whale and dwarf sperm whale of the genus Kogia. The sperm whale can be found anywhere in the open ocean. Females and young males live together in groups while mature males live solitary lives outside of the mating season. The females cooperate to protect and nurse their young. Females give birth every four to twenty years, and care for the calves for more than a decade. A mature sperm whale has few natural predators. Calves and weakened adults are taken by pods of orcas.
