Eucastor is an extinct genus of beaver-grouped rodents.[1][2]

Based on the available evidence of the foramina, Eucastor most likely is closely related to Castor, but not in its direct lineage.[3]

It has two species, the type Eucastor (formerly Castor) tortus, and E. malheurensis[4]

Kembali ke alam

Kembali ke alam adalah filosofi atau gaya hidup yang lebih menekankan kedekatan dengan alam dibandingkan kecanggihan dan peradaban. Dalam hal ini, kebiasaan pedesaan dan penggembalaan kehidupan pedesaan lebih disukai daripada mode dan kecanggihan di kawasan perkotaan. Tokoh terkenal yang mungkin mempopulerkan gaya hidup ini adalah Henry David Thoreau yang menghabiskan dua tahun hidup sederhana di sebuah pondok kayu di Walden Pond.[1][2][3][4] Penerapan Kesehat...

Angora

Pour les articles homonymes, voir Angora (homonymie). L’angora est un pelage long et soyeux que l'on trouve chez plusieurs espèces d'animaux dont une mutation génétique naturelle, affectant la fourrure, fait pousser celle-ci plus rapidement et plus abondamment que la moyenne. Comme l'albinisme, cette mutation peut survenir chez un individu sauvage, mais elle est le plus souvent sélectionnée et perpétuée en élevage pour constituer des races utiles à l'homme (lapin, chèvre...) ou d...
