Aardvark known by the name Ant Bears (Ant bear) is an ant feeder mammals that spread can only be found on the African continent. The word aardvark is taken from the African language, which in English means "earthpig" (ground pig), although their similarities with pigs are few.

An aardvark can dig hard ground faster than some people dig with a shovel. Anhalvark can eat up to 50,000 insects each night they collect with sticky tongue that they can lengthen up to 30 centimeters. Charleswark does not chew their food, they swallow whole food and do milling in the abdominal muscles.
Aardvark:

Aardvarks are animals that are active at night (noktural). They spend the time of the morning by sleeping curled up in their nests. However, sometimes they are also seen wandering outside during the day and cold afternoons. At night aardvark leaves the nest and starts looking for food. Aardvark looks for ants and termites to eat by walking zigzags along the ground with their muzzles. They tend to walk by poking their claws into the ground and looking a bit slow and awkward. If running on soft ground, the aardvark's tail will drag and leave a trail behind it.

The distribution of aardvarks is largely determined by the distribution of ant species and termites suitable for their diet. These councils are scattered in the southern Sahara region, from Senegal to Ethiopia to South Africa.Aardvark can be found in African countries, among others: Angola, Botswana, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Congo, Democratic Republic of The Congo, Djibouti, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Gabon, Gambia, Ghana, Guinea-Bissau, Kenya, Malawi, Mali, Mozambique, Namibia, Niger, Nigeria , Rwanda, Senegal, Sierra Leone, Somalia, South Africa, Sudan, Swaziland, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe.
