Check Airman

HI all,
I saw 2 interesting pictures on airliners.net today, and couldn't figure out why they have what appears to be air hoses attached to the engines. Anyone here in the know?
At the same time, I get why the APU exhaust etc. must be covered, but why the tape over the doors, cockpit windows and other access panels? Surely those gaps aren't large enough for animals to get inside.
