The male Markhor hangs his tongue out when he's in pursuit of a female for mating. I just learned about it on Nature on PBS. It looks so lewd, and desperate.
They are quite majestic looking animals, though. Especially for a goat.
And the Himalayan jumping spider, whose Latin name (Euophrys omnisuperstes) means "standing above everything" is the highest known living animal on earth. It can live at elevations as high as 21,000 feet! Isn't it cute? I mean, for a spider.
