🐺 NOT A WOLF. NOT A FOX. MEET THE MYSTERIOUS MANED WOLF! 👀🌙

With incredibly long legs, a fox-like face, and glowing eyes in the darkness, this unusual animal looks like something from another world!

Meet the maned wolf (Chrysocyon brachyurus), South America’s tallest wild canid and the only surviving member of its genus.

Despite its name, it’s neither a true wolf nor a fox. Its long legs help it move through tall grasslands, while its unusual diet includes small animals, insects, and even fruit! 🍎

🌙 Those eerie glowing eyes? They’re caused by a reflective layer behind the retina called the tapetum lucidum, which helps the animal see in low light.

This incredible footage was captured in Brazil’s Pantanal, where a curious female approached a wildlife observer before quietly disappearing into the night.

🐺 One of South America’s most fascinating and misunderstood animals!

💬 Would you have guessed this was a real animal? 👀👇

Today I opened the temple to the Venus Retrograde Temple & a 40 Day Practice to re-envision beauty in the world:

“The more you see beauty ~ the more beautiful you are. Beauty will come with unity & surrender. This makes you a beautiful person, to sit in true community. Because it means that someone else can come to you & you can merge with them. Which is what everyone wants all the time, they just want to merge. They want to be received. They just want to know somebody else sees them. Everyone can come true community because the door is open. This is not personal.” ~ Guru Rattana 🤍

I am also reading END TIME FASCISM by Naomi Klein & Astra Taylor 🔥

These things can co-exist. We are together. Our prayers & actions can support what is happening & what is coming next.

Come sit with us in the morning. Right here on IG Live at 7 am EST #40daypractice #VenusRetrograde #lovewins #freepalestine🇵🇸

Still about Amazon, on the teachings and on everything that was shared.

From going hunting at night through dense jungle with @caciqueisaka, a truly unique experience that I will carry in my heart forever. So much gratitude!

P.S.: The Cacique says I made way too much noise and scared all the animals away 😂 I tried my best!

To the sharing of craft traditions, and the creation of beautiful pieces made with glass beads.

To the lightness of playfulness, and to sharing so much native, delicious fruit. I miss it so much!!

To the four-legged companions who kept us so much company. 🐾

And to all the days and moments spent filming, sharing wisdom with the young people of the village, who have so much talent and such a unique way of seeing the world.

And to the medicines of the forest, which taught me so much.

Ainda sobre a Amazónia, sobres os ensinamentos e sobre as partilhas.

Desde ir caçar à noite em mata serrada com @caciqueisaka uma experiência única que guardarei para sempre no coração. Gratidão !

Ps.: Cacique diz que fiz muito barulho e afugentei os animais ahah tentei o meu melhor

À partilha de ensinamentos de artesanato, criação de peças lindas feitas com miçanga de vidro.

À partilha de uma leveza de brincadeira e fruta muita fruta nativa e deliciosa. Que saudades !!

Aos cãopanheiros que tanto fizeram companhia.

E a todos os dias e momentos de filmagem, partilha de sabedoria com os jovens da aldeia, que têm tanto talento e um olhar único.

E as medicinas da floresta que tanto me ensinaram.

Momentos de muita alegria 🥰🥰
Difícil mesmo é voltar.

Voltar para a cidade.
Para a Matrix.
Para a vida que o homem branco criou.

Um mundo cheio de coisas, de pressa, de barulho, de excessos…telas, estímulos, consumo.

E eu volto me perguntando por que precisamos de tantas coisas para viver.

Porque lá, no meio da floresta, eu vivi o contrário.

Um outro tempo.
O tempo do rio, da terra, das brincadeiras, das crianças.
Um jeito de estar em que tudo parecia mais integrado, mais simples, mais próximo do essencial.

E eu senti isso.

Senti no corpo.

Por isso, quando volto, fica difícil fingir que nada aconteceu.

Difícil simplesmente me encaixar de novo nessa forma de viver que fomos construindo, como se aquele outro ritmo não tivesse me atravessado.

Captação da Deusa @flaviatasso ♥️

Je les appelle: les éclipses !
Il y a des animaux que l’on rêve de rencontrer pendant des années et lorsqu’ils apparaissent enfin, on sait déjà que ces quelques instants nous accompagneront toute notre vie.

Une hyène brune du Kalahari, un loup à crinière au Brésil, un panda roux dans l’Himalaya, un chat pêcheur au cœur de l’Inde ou encore un bongo dans les forêts du bassin du Congo… Des rencontres si rares qu’au moment de les voir disparaître, je me demande toujours si j’aurai la chance de les recroiser un jour.

C’est une drôle de sensation de vivre un instant qui est peut-être le seul. On voudrait qu’il dure un peu plus longtemps. On essaie de tout retenir : le regard, la démarche, la lumière, les bruits autour.

Ces photos me rappellent cette chance. Quelques instants offerts par la nature.
Mais j’aimerais que ces images racontent aussi un avenir. Que ces animaux continuent de vivre dans leurs forêts, leurs plaines, leurs montagnes. Que d’autres puissent un jour attendre, espérer, puis ressentir cette même émotion en les voyant apparaître.

Protéger leurs territoires, c’est aussi préserver la possibilité de ces rencontres. Pour que ce qui est rare ne devienne pas seulement un souvenir 🌿

Glowing eyes in the dark. Not a lot of people would be able to guess this rare canid. And fewer still could get such incredible footage… this vid from @flaviatasso is mesmerizing. Take a guess what this is, I’ll put it in the comments.
…
From @flaviatasso — I stepped out of my room here in the Pantanal just to catch a bit of Wi-Fi… and ended up experiencing one of those encounters you can’t plan. 🐺✨ This maned wolf—a female I’d seen a little earlier—came back and approached me. She caught my scent and slowly drew nearer, while I remained crouched on the ground, watching in silence. For a few moments, we were very close, sharing that space without any rush. When I stood up, she moved away—a reminder that, in nature, distance is also part of the encounter. That’s what I love so much about the Pantanal: you never know what might happen when you simply step out the door.

🐺 Uma cena inusitada gravada na escuridão do Pantanal mato-grossense acabou gerando um verdadeiro frisson nas redes sociais. Uma documentarista saiu de seu quarto de hotel no meio da noite para tentar buscar sinal de Wi-Fi e deu de cara com uma silhueta alta e esguia caminhando calmamente. A combinação das pernas longas, a iluminação baixa do local e o porte imponente do animal fez com que muitos internautas associassem a imagem instantaneamente à figura lendária de um lobisomem.

✨ Apesar do susto inicial provocado pelo aspecto misterioso da gravação, a visita ilustre se tratava na verdade de uma fêmea de lobo-guará. Considerado o maior canídeo da América do Sul, essa espécie é famosa por sua beleza marcante e por seu comportamento extremamente pacífico e tímido perto dos seres humanos. O vídeo registrou o animal caminhando tranquilamente pelo gramado sem demonstrar qualquer agressividade ou incômodo com a presença da hóspede.

🍃 O flagrante viralizou rapidamente no Facebook e serviu como uma excelente oportunidade para conscientizar o público sobre a preservação da fauna pantaneira. Especialistas reforçaram que o lobo-guará é uma espécie inofensiva e ameaçada de extinção que merece todo o nosso respeito e proteção. A gravação provou como a natureza do nosso país é capaz de criar momentos surpreendentes que parecem ter saído diretamente de uma lenda do folclore nacional.
