Cape elephant shrew
The Cape elephant shrew (Elephantulus edwardii),[2][3] also known as the Cape rock elephant-shrew,[1][4] or Cape rock sengi,[1] is a species of elephant shrew in the family Macroscelididae. It is endemic to South Africa, although it is a relatively common animal. Its natural habitat is rocky areas.[1] Elephant shrews are not closely related to other species of shrews and to rodents such as mice.[3] E. edwardii has been observed to be a non-flying mammal pollinator of the pagoda lily (). Elephant shrews are floral pollinators due to their largely insectivorous diet.[5] Elephant-shrews are pollinators of Hyobanche atropurpurea. [6]It uses its long slender tongue to feed on the pagoda lily's nectar while getting the lily's pollen on its long nose.[4] E. edwardii is also a pollinator of Protea sulphurea.[7]

Sand Lake (Kearney, Ontario)
Sand Lake (French: lac Sand) is a lake in the town of Kearney, Almaguin Highlands, Parry Sound District, Ontario, Canada.[2] An unincorporated community of Sand Lake, Ontario could be found just north of Sand Lake[3] prior to the amalgamation with Kearney in 1979. Sand Lake is also host to only one camp, and much of the shore of the lake is Precambrian rock of the Canadian Shield. There are only a few occurrences of sandy beach around the lake shoreline due largely to runoff water erosion carrying sand from creeks from the surrounding elevated rocky terrain. However, a good portion of the shallow waters around the shore are sand as the name of the lake suggests.

The boa constrictor (Boa constrictor), also called the red-tailed boa or the common boa, is a species of large, non-venomous, heavy-bodied snake that is frequently kept and bred in captivity.[2][3] The boa constrictor is a member of the family Boidae, found in tropical South America, as well as some islands in the Caribbean. A staple of private collections and public displays, its color pattern is highly variable yet distinctive. Nine subspecies are currently recognized, although some of these are controversial.[4] This article focuses on the species Boa constrictor as a whole, and on the nominate subspecies B. c. constrictor.
