Question about large animals of the Amazon

Reddit Animals

Hi ! I believe that one of the factors behind the size of an animal is oxygen availability, which is to say atmospheric pressure. I suppose the Amazon is both low altitude, and also filled with vegetation, which means lots of oxygen. And as such, I would like for there to be large versions of animals there. Could I get some examples ? All I can think of is the largest spider (goliath birdeater), largest eagle (harpy eagle), and largest rodent (capybara).

Who would win in a fight? Polar bear vs Wolverine.

Reddit Animals

My dumb friend keeps saying that a wolverine would beat a polar bear and “jump on its back and cut its throat” and he seems to think wolverines are faster even though a quick search says otherwise and the only recorded incident of a wolverine killing a bear was at a zoo, where both animals are out of it’s natural habitat. I also doubt a wolverine could jump high enough to get on the bears back.

So I live in a granny flat and already have one cat. He’s the sweetest and most gentle cat, the only thing he does is meow loads when he wants attention. My dad thought it would be a good idea to bring in another one of mates cat so that he can mate, since my cat has no companion.

So we just had a baby owl sadly die in our backyard. It was in a hole in our oaktree that we think a woodpecker made weeks ago. We just noticed the owl in it yesterday. Weve been seeing a giant crow getting close to it all day today and many other birds have been fighting it off. We had a fledging that fell out of its nest and unfortunately got eaten by a black garden snake in our backyard last year.
