'''Felidae''', more commonly known as '''felines''', is the [[mammal]] biological [[W:Family (biology)|family]] of [[cat]]s ('''felids'''). &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Overview ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Non-extinct felids belong to one of two  [[W:Subfamily|subfamilies]]:&lt;br /&gt;
* '''[[W:Pantherinae|Pantherinae]]''', which includes the [[tiger]], [[lion]], [[jaguar]], [[leopard]], [[snow leopard]] and [[clouded leopard]].&lt;br /&gt;
* '''[[W:Felinae|Felinae]]''', which include all the non-pantherine cats.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The most familiar felid is the [[cat|domestic cat]] (''Felis catus''), descended from the African wildcat.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Felids are the strictest [[carnivore]]s of the 13 terrestrial families in the [[W:order (biology)|order]] [[W:Carnivora|Carnivora]]. They are [[W:obligate carnivores|obligate carnivores]] (or '''hypercarnivores'''), as they must consume meat to survive because of the much higher proportion of [[W:protein|protein]] they require in their diet, much more than most other mammals.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Felidae in popular culture ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Bastet]], Egyptian Godess (as early as 2890 BC)&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Maneki Neko]] (the beckoning cat, Japan) (possibly starting in late Edo period, around 19th century)&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Felix the Cat]] (first appearance 1919)&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Tigger]], from ''[[Winnie the Pooh]]'' (first appearance 1928)&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Tom Cat (character)|Tom Cat]], from ''[[Tom and Jerry]]'' (first appearance 1940)&lt;br /&gt;
* '''Kimba''', from ''[[Kimba the White Lion]]'' (first appearance 1950)&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Fritz the Cat]] (first appearance: 1959 as Fred, 1960 as Fritz)&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Top Cat]] (first appearance 1961)&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Garfield]] (first appearance 1978)&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Billy the Cat]] (first appearance 1982)&lt;br /&gt;
* '''Eek''', from ''[[Eek! The Cat]]'' (first appearance 1992)&lt;br /&gt;
* '''T-Bone''' and '''Razor''', from ''[[SWAT Kats]]'' (series started in 1993)&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Simba (The Lion King)|Simba]], from the ''[[The Lion King]]'' (first appearance 1994)&lt;br /&gt;
* [[Blacksad]] (first published in 2000)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Felines are one of the [[List of most popular species|most popular species]] that are chosen by [[furries]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;[[File:African Bush Elephant.jpg|right|thumb|African bush elephant]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Dumbo(Character).jpg|right|thumb|Dumbo (The Walt Disney Company).]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:ElephantmenCover.jpg|right|thumb|''Elephantmen'' V.1 cover]]&lt;br /&gt;
'''Elephants''' are the largest existing land [[animal]]s which are the only surviving members of the family [[W:Elephantidae|Elephantidae]] and the order [[W:Proboscidea|Proboscidea]]. The order was formerly much more diverse during the [[W:Pleistocene|Pleistocene]], but most species became extinct during the [[W:Late Pleistocene|Late Pleistocene]] epoch. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Ethymology ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The word &amp;quot;'''''elephant'''''&amp;quot; is based on the [[W:Latin|Latin]] '''''elephas''''', which is the Latinised form of the [[W:Greek language|Greek]] '''''ἐλέφας''''' (&amp;quot;''elephas'''&amp;quot;). [[Male]] elephants are called '''''Bulls''''', while [[female]]s are known as '''''Cows'''''.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Description ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Three of these [[herbivore]] [[species]] are currently recognized: the [[W:African bush elephant|African bush elephant]] (distributed across 37 African countries and inhabits forests, grasslands and woodlands, wetlands and agricultural land), the [[W:African forest elephant|African forest elephant]] (native to humid forests in West Africa and the [[W:LCongo Basin|Congo Basin]]), and the [[W:Asian elephant|Asian elephant]] (found in the jungles of India, Sri Lanka and Malaysia). They have bare, grey, leathery skin, a huge, rounded body, and very thick legs, which end in flat, round feet, and are cushioned by a layer of fat in the soles.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The elephant's nose is a long, [[W:prehensile|prehensile]] [[W:proboscis|proboscis]] called a [[trunk]], which is highly mobile and can act a little like a hand, to manipulate objects. The two nostrils are located at the tip of the trunk. The trunk can also be used like a hosepipe, expelling water at high velocity. The trunk of the elephant can weigh up to 300 pounds. African elephants have two fingers on their trunks, while Asian elephants have one.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The elephant has very large ears, which are fairly mobile. The large surface area of the ears assists the elephant in removing heat from the body.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Tusks ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Beneath the trunk, elephants have a pair of '''tusks''', which are modified second [[W:incisor|incisors]] in the upper jaw made of [[W:Dentin|dentine]] coated with a thin layer of [[W:cementum|cementum]] and have ivory. They are used for digging for water, salt, and roots; debarking or marking trees; and for moving trees and branches when clearing a path. When fighting, they are used to attack and defend and protect the trunk. Like humans, who are typically right- or left-handed, elephants are usually right- or left-tusked. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Both [[sex]]es of the African bush elephant species have tusks, which grow from [[W:deciduous teeth|deciduous teeth]] known as [[W:tushes|tushes]] that develop in the upper jaw, with the tusks of bulls growing faster than those of cows. Both sexes of the African forest elephant's tusks are straight and point downwards, are colored pink, and are thinner and harder than the tusks of the African bush elephant.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the Asian elephant species, only the males have large tusks. Female Asians have tiny tusks or none at all. Tuskless males exist and are particularly common among Sri Lankan elephants. Asian males can have tusks as long as Africans, but they are usually slimmer and lighter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Diet ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Elephants in the wild consume grass, leaves, and such, with a high percentage of water, and may eat up to 300 kgs/day. In captivity, they eat about 30 kg of hay, 10 kg of carrots, and 5-10 kg of bread. Some zoos give a &amp;quot;breakfast&amp;quot; of different grains, about 3-10 kg.&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:Lennybiopic.jpg|right|thumb|[[Lenny Mutt]], the German Shepherd/Siberian Husky mix]]&lt;br /&gt;
The term '''dog''' may refer to a number of organisms, but is used here to describe the domesticated [[canine]]. Canines are the [[List of most popular phenotypes|most popular phenotypes]] of [[furries]], with a significant number of these being domestic dogs. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Species overview==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The domestic dog (''Canis lupus familiaris'') is a subspecies of the [[gray wolf]] (or grey wolf) (''Canis lupus'') and a member of the family [[Canidae]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;https://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2016/06/the-origin-of-dogs/484976/&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Dogs are [[carnivorous]] [[mammal]]s, though generalization about the subspecies is problematic because of the extreme variation brought about by the result of their domestication. Most dogs will eat almost any type of food. A few things may be said to be generally true:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dogs can perceive sounds across a wider range than that of [[human]]s, from 20 Hz to 100 KHz (as opposed to 20 Hz to 20 KHz) and, thanks to mobility in their ears, can localize sound with greater precision. In addition, their sense of smell is significantly more advanced: it is said that a [[Wikipedia:bloodhound|bloodhound]] can detect a single drop of blood diluted with five gallons of water. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Their sight allows them keen perception of motion, and their field of vision is larger than that of humans (while still following the binocular vision typical of the [[carnivore]] pattern); however, they are dichromats and therefore functionally colorblind. Their visual acuity is relatively low, with much sensory input being olfactory and auditory. Dogs have great night vision.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;https://www.petfinder.com/dogs/bringing-a-dog-home/facts-about-new-dog/&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They are generally less robust than their wild ancestors, with a less pronounced [[muzzle]] and an overall reduced muscular structure. Some of this may have to do with their upbringing; tellingly, wolf puppies raised apart from their society from birth develop some similar traits. However, with hundreds of breeds ranging from the [[Wikipedia:Yorkshire terriers|Yorkshire terrier]] to the [[Wikipedia:mastiff|mastiff]], and the [[Wikipedia:basset hound|basset hound]] to the [[Wikipedia:saluki|saluki]], such generalizations have only limited value in describing the subspecies as a whole.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Dogs and human beings==&lt;br /&gt;
Wolves domesticated at some point greater than fifteen thousand years ago (possibly as long ago as one hundred thousand years or more) form the basis for all modern canine stock; the dog is in fact identified taxonomically as a subspecies of ''Canis lupus''. The relationship since then has been cozy; ritual burials suggest a close association between the two species as early as the Mesolithic.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In modern context dogs have many roles within human society. Many are &amp;quot;employed&amp;quot; in search and rescue and drug/contraband location; others act as seeing-eye or assistance dogs. Throughout history they have served as everything from pack animals to emergency food source, although today both of these uses are much less common. A significant number--perhaps the vast majority--of dogs in the western world are companion animals with no assigned task ''per se''.&lt;br /&gt;

The term '''dog''' may refer to a number of organisms, but is used here to describe the domesticated [[canine]]. Canines are the [[List of most popular phenotypes|most popular phenotypes]] of [[furries]], with a significant number of these being domestic dogs. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Species overview==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The domestic dog (''Canis lupus familiaris'') is a subspecies of the [[gray wolf]] (or grey wolf) (''Canis lupus'') and a member of the family [[Canidae]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;https://www.theatlantic.com/science/archive/2016/06/the-origin-of-dogs/484976/&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Dogs are [[carnivorous]] [[mammal]]s, though generalization about the subspecies is problematic because of the extreme variation brought about by the result of their domestication. Most dogs will eat almost any type of food. A few things may be said to be generally true:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dogs can perceive sounds across a wider range than that of [[human]]s, from 20 Hz to 100 KHz (as opposed to 20 Hz to 20 KHz) and, thanks to mobility in their ears, can localize sound with greater precision. In addition, their sense of smell is significantly more advanced: it is said that a [[Wikipedia:bloodhound|bloodhound]] can detect a single drop of blood diluted with five gallons of water. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Their sight allows them keen perception of motion, and their field of vision is larger than that of humans (while still following the binocular vision typical of the [[carnivore]] pattern); however, they are dichromats and therefore functionally colorblind. Their visual acuity is relatively low, with much sensory input being olfactory and auditory. Dogs have great night vision.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;https://www.petfinder.com/dogs/bringing-a-dog-home/facts-about-new-dog/&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
They are generally less robust than their wild ancestors, with a less pronounced [[muzzle]] and an overall reduced muscular structure. Some of this may have to do with their upbringing; tellingly, wolf puppies raised apart from their society from birth develop some similar traits. However, with hundreds of breeds ranging from the [[Wikipedia:Yorkshire terriers|Yorkshire terrier]] to the [[Wikipedia:mastiff|mastiff]], and the [[Wikipedia:basset hound|basset hound]] to the [[Wikipedia:saluki|saluki]], such generalizations have only limited value in describing the subspecies as a whole.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Dogs and human beings==&lt;br /&gt;
Wolves domesticated at some point greater than fifteen thousand years ago (possibly as long ago as one hundred thousand years or more) form the basis for all modern canine stock; the dog is in fact identified taxonomically as a subspecies of ''Canis lupus''. The relationship since then has been cozy; ritual burials suggest a close association between the two species as early as the Mesolithic.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In modern context dogs have many roles within human society. Many are &amp;quot;employed&amp;quot; in search and rescue and drug/contraband location; others act as seeing-eye or assistance dogs. Throughout history they have served as everything from pack animals to emergency food source, although today both of these uses are much less common. A significant number--perhaps the vast majority--of dogs in the western world are companion animals with no assigned task ''per se''.&lt;br /&gt;
