00:00In the social media, we are united to the World of Ardillas.
00:03Every January of January 2021, and thanks to the naturalist Christy Hargrove,
00:06we celebrate the World of Ardillas,
00:08an opportunity to recognize the importance of this animal
00:10in the balance of ecosystems.
00:11There are more than 250 species of ardillas,
00:14according to the Integrated Informations Taxonomic System,
00:16and can be found in almost all over the world.
00:18They are very developed by the smell, the ear and the eye,
00:21and they live between 5 and 10 years.
00:22The ardillas more small is called ardillas pigmea africana,
00:25and it weighs about 13 cm of narizacola.
00:27It weighs 10 grams.
00:28Others reach a surprise for those who only know the comuns of the trees.
00:33The ardillas gigante hindú, for example,
00:34mide almost 1 m and pesa 2 kg.
00:36Eso sí, they are ciegas and depend on their mothers for 2 months,
00:40while they bring food and give them to eat.
00:42The adults have a perfect vision.
00:44The ardillas are considered as one of the best escalators of nature.
00:47They only go to the ground to seek food,
00:49like fruits secs, semillas, raíces,
00:51and sometimes, eggs, sharks, insects, orugas.
00:54Like others, the four dientes frontales of the ardillas
00:57don't stop growing,
00:58so they don't have to be digested
00:59and they must be used constantly.
01:00They can grow approximately 15 cm a year.
01:03They have a lot of use.
01:05They help maintain the balance,
01:06they guide when they jump from tree to tree,
01:08they work as a means of communication between them,
01:10and also to preserve better their natural temperature.
01:13They move well if they suspect any threat.
01:15So the invitation is to take care of and protect the lives of these animals.
01:18and that's the difference in my life.
01:19We're good to see you too.
01:21Boom.
