Yesterday, Tuesday 22 April 2014, was the
Earth Day. And as usual, Google created a great
doodle to celebrate it:

This year they featured six different species of animals. Google redirected me to the animals' Wikipedia entries, but I wanted to know more about these creatures, so I asked Wolfram Alpha to compute several things for me:

I was really impressed by the refined information W|A provided, specially when I asked Wolfram Alpha to compute and compare taxonomic networks.
