This is how the pronghorn antelopes that live in Wyoming, in the Grand Teton National Park look like. Migrating antelopes are able to travel long distances, but cannot jump over high fences, in particular, the barbed wire fences with which many owners protect their ranches are dangerous traps for them. Trying to crawl under the fence, antelopes die, which causes irreparable harm to the population of these noble animals. Photographer Joe Riis.

It is known that in 1995 the International Committee of Marine Biologists and Conservation Specialists declared the Palau Archipelago an "Underwater Wonder of the World". And the jellyfish found in the waters of the Jellyfish Lake are one of the reasons why Palau is so honored. So, every day up to 5 million of these little creatures glide along the surface of the lake. In the morning - to the east, behind the sun, and in the evening - to the west. At night, jellyfish descend to a depth of about 13 meters to replenish the body's supply of nutrients - delicious algae and bacteria. Photo courtesy of National Geographic Television.

Incredible photo from the Yucatan Peninsula. Pink flamingos that live in the Gulf of Mexico seem to be deliberately lined up so that their flock resembles the figure of … flamingos. Or an ostrich. Photo by Robert B. Haas.

Huge, important, whale sharks live in oceans around the world. But no one knows where they prefer to give birth to their babies, and neither the routes of their migration, nor how many tiger sharks exist in the world, are still unknown. The whale shark weighs about 37 tons and reaches 20 meters in length. This photo was by Brian Skerry.
