Hello
Hummingbirds are the only birds that can fly backwards and their wings can beat at up to 80 times per second.
2.Poodle
Contrary to popular belief, French poodles actually originated in Germany. Maybe you should’ve named her Gretl instead of Fifi.
Pigs communicate constantly with one another; more than 20 vocalizations have been identified that pigs use in different situations, from wooing mates to saying, “I’m hungry!”
The slowest fish is the seahorse, which moves along at about 0.01 mph.
Dogs’ nose prints are as unique as human fingerprints and can be used to identify them.
Humpback whales create the loudest sound of any living creature. And you thought the loudest sound came from that two-year-old you sat next to on your trans-continental flight, didn’t you?
You might want to thank a squirrel the next time you enjoy the shade of a tree. Millions of trees are accidentally planted by squirrels that bury nuts and then forget where they hid them.
Giraffes have no vocal cords and their tongues are blue-black in color.
You can tell a turtle’s gender by the noise it makes. Males grunt and females hiss.
Don’t try this at home, but a snail can grow back a new eye if it loses one.
11.Butterfly
Butterflies have two compound eyes consisting of thousands of lenses, yet they can only see the colors red, green and yellow.
Oysters can change gender depending on which is best for mating. Talk about successful adaptation.
Beware an ant uprising! There are one million ants for every human in the world. These resilient creatures also never sleep and do not have lungs.
Because beavers’ teeth never stop growing, they must constantly gnaw on objects to keep them at a manageable length. Their teeth would eventually grow into their brain if they didn’t maintain them.
Koala bears almost exclusively eat only eucalyptus leaves and nothing else.
16.Elephant
Elephants can smell water up to 3 miles away. They are also one of the three mammals that undergo menopause – the other two being humpback whales and human females.
A cat has 32 muscles in each ear. All the better for them to eavesdrop on your conversations and plot your demise.
Fleas can jump up to 200 times their height. This is equivalent to a man jumping the Empire State Building in New York.
Here’s a tidbit that might be useful if you plan on becoming the next Steve Irwin: To escape the grip of a crocodile’s jaw, push your thumb into its eyeball – It will let you go instantly.
Tigers not only have stripes on their fur, they also have them on their skin. No two tigers ever have the same stripes.
On average, there are 50,000 spiders per acre in green areas. Bet you’ll think twice before going outside now – unless you’re this guy.
Kangaroos use their tails for balance, so if you lift a kangaroo’s tail off the ground, it can’t hop.
Bats are the only mammals that can fly, but wouldn’t it be awesome if humans could fly too?
Ostriches can run faster than horses, and the male ostriches can roar like lions
Houseflies don’t allow their short lifespans (14 days) to hinder their musical abilities. They always hum in the key of F.
