Super Earth Wolf 1069-B #exoplanet #space #superearth | Secrets of Space

What a beautifully unique animal!!🖤 This is a baby aardwolf — which actually isn’t a wolf at all despite the name. It’s one of the four hyena species! Absolutely incredible and so unique, with a diet made up almost entirely of insects (primarily termites) 🐜 . . . #Aardwolf #HyenaSpecies #WildlifeEducation #UniqueAnimals #AnimalFacts #Conservation #BeautifulAnimals #RareSpecies #NatureLovers #WildlifeDaily #AnimalEncounters | Rio Lilly

Meet the aardwolf — a shy, nocturnal member of the hyena family that prefers termites and insects. But don’t be fooled by their peaceful diet, when it comes to territory, aardwolves are very serious. Aardwolves have anal glands that produce a strong-smelling secretion, which they use to mark their territory boundaries. The scent fades after a few days, so aardwolves re-mark frequently to maintain a clear signal to rivals. Shout out to our fantastic Founder Bill Given for this footage! . . . #the
