8 incredible facts about animals
The animal kingdom is fascinating. Our formal education barely scratches the surface! Here are eight facts you probably didn’t know.
#1 Ostriches are fast. Really fast!
They can run faster than a horse can and the males roar when they get territorial.
#2 There is only one mammal that can actually fly! The bat.
#3 Kangaroos are famous for hopping around.
But few people know that this is possible because they use their tails to propel themselves, similar to a third leg.
#4 Fleas are the Supermen of the insect world.
They can jump up to 200 times their own height in a single bound. The equivalent of that would be a human leaping to the top floor of the Empire State Building.
#5 Ants never sleep!
These insects are incredibly resilient and hardworking. They also vastly outnumber humans by a ratio of one million to one.
#6 One of our best weapons in reforestation attempts are squirrels.
They’re responsible for the planting of millions of trees simply because they forget where they buried their nuts.
#7 Oysters are feeling the fluidity of gender.
They can change it throughout their lives based on what’s more advantageous for mating at any given time.
#8 Man’s best friend has its own version of fingerprints.
Dogs' noses are completely unique and can be used for identification.
