25 most amazing animals of world
25
Housefly
Houseflies don’t allow their short
lifespans (14 days) to hinder their musical abilities. They always hum in the
key of F.
24
Ostrich
Ostriches can run faster than horses,
and the male ostriches can roar like lions.
23
Bat
Bats are
the only mammals that can fly, but wouldn’t it be awesome if humans could fly
too?
22
Kangaroo
Kangaroos use their tails for balance,
so if you lift a kangaroo’s tail off the ground, it can’t hop.
21
Spider
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.
20
Tiger
Tigers
not only have stripes on their fur, they also have them on their skin. No two
tigers ever have the same stripes.
19
Crocodile
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.
18
Flea
Fleas
can jump up to 200 times their height. This is equivalent to a man jumping the
Empire State Building in New York.
17
Cat
A cat
has 32 muscles in each ear. All the better for them to eavesdrop on your
conversations and plot your demise.
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.
15
Koala
Koala
bears almost exclusively eat only eucalyptus leaves and nothing else.
14
Beaver
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.
13
Ant
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.
12
Oyster
Oysters
can change gender depending on which is best for mating. Talk about successful
adaptation.
11
Butterfly
Butterflies have two compound eyes
consisting of thousands of lenses, yet they can only see the colors red, green
and yell10
Snail
Don’t try this at home, but a snail can grow back a new
eye if it loses one.
9
Turtle
You can tell a turtle’s gender by the noise it makes.
Males grunt and females hiss.
8
Giraffe
Giraffes have no vocal cords and their tongues are
blue-black in color.
7
Squirrel
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.
6
Humpback Whale
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?
5
Dog
Dogs’ nose prints are as unique as human fingerprints and can be
used to identify them.
4
Seahorse
The slowest fish is the seahorse, which moves along at
about 0.01 mph.
3
Pig
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!”
2
Poodle
Contrary to popular belief, French poodles actually
originated in Germany. Maybe you should’ve named her Gretl instead of
Fifi.
1
Hummingbird
Hummingbirds are the only birds that can fly backwards and their
wings can beat at up to 80 times per second.
