"Mata mata are South American freshwater turtles that have a specialized skin structure on top of their heads resembling a fallen leaf. This purportedly aids them in catching prey. Recently, a new species of mata mata (Chelus orinocensis) was discovered in the Orinoco River of the Amazon Basin."

"Rescued red fruit bats hanging out together. Unlike black fruit bats who always stay a body length apart, reds are well known to break branches with too much weight of too many bats huddled close together. (Insert social distancing joke here)"
