🤫 Shh…wanna hear a secret? The secret toadhead agama (Phrynocephalus mystaceus) has one. Growing about 9 in (24 cm) long, this wide-ranging species inhabits deserts in parts of Asia. When confronted by predators, like birds of prey, it can open its mouth to deploy brightly colored cheek flaps—shocking foes with a sudden change of appearance! If that doesn’t work, this reptile can also rapidly bury itself in the sand, disappearing from view.Â

I'm going to say it. The (word in parentheses) meme is way better for tone indication than tone indicators
This Caturday, meet the black-footed cat (Felis nigripes). It’s the smallest wild cat in Africa, only growing about 8 in (20 cm) tall and weighing around 4.4 lbs (2 kg). Don’t let its size fool you: This pint-sized predator is an extremely successful hunter, with a recorded kill rate of 10 to 14 prey animals per night—taking down critters such as rodents and birds about every 50 minutes! How does this stack up to bigger felines? The black-footed cat’s hunting success rate is 60 percent, far higher than that of a group of lions on the hunt—they peak at about 30 percent. And why does this tiny cat eat so much? This species’ fast metabolism requires it to refuel constantly.Â
