If youโ€™ve spotted our goats butting heads, donโ€™t worry โ€” this can be a normal part of goat behaviour!

๐Ÿ Playful sparring โ€” goats may test their strength and practise their head-butting skills.

๐Ÿƒ Social interaction โ€” these little clashes can help goats communicate and establish their place within the group.

๐Ÿ’ช Testing boundaries โ€” sometimes itโ€™s simply a case of โ€œLetโ€™s see what youโ€™ve got!โ€ ๐Ÿ˜†

And our two? They certainly seem to have turned it into their own little wrestling match! ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ’ฅ

Think all pigeons are the same? Think again! ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ๐ŸŒฟ

The Imperial Pigeon is much larger and more striking than the common city pigeon. While urban pigeons have adapted to life around people, Imperial Pigeons are true forest birds, spending much of their time high in the rainforest canopy.

Their diet also sets them apart. Instead of feeding on scraps and grains, Imperial Pigeons mainly eat fruits. As they travel from tree to tree, they disperse seeds through their droppings, helping regenerate forests naturally. In many tropical forests, they're among nature's most effective seed dispersers.

The next time you visit Penang Bird Park, take a closer lookโ€”you might never see pigeons the same way again!

The Golden Pheasant is one of the world's most spectacular birds, instantly recognisable by its dazzling golden crest, fiery red body, and flowing tail feathers. Native to the mountainous forests of western China, this shy species spends much of its time foraging on the forest floor. While the male's brilliant colours are designed to impress potential mates, the female's subtle brown plumage provides excellent camouflage among leaves and undergrowth.

Every close encounter is a reminder that nature's beauty often shines brightest in moments of stillness. ๐Ÿฆโœจ
