Their mothers would wrap them in kelp while hunting until the buoyant pups learn to paddle about independently. A swarm of otters will also clasp hands while sleeping to avoid drifting apart!

For those who are allergic to cats, be aware that they may also be allergic to you! It's unusual since we bathe more frequently than other species and don't lose as much hair or dead skin, but it does happen.

DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid of a species plays an important role in its identity. And in the case of polar bears, scientists have discovered a new innovative technique to find out the DNA of polar bears. They can get to know about the DNA of a polar bear by its footprint on the snow. Isn't this interesting?

Cheetahs are carnivores that eat tiny animals that they can readily hunt and kill. According to the San Diego Zoo, this contains smaller antelopes such as Thomson's gazelles and springboks, as well as rabbits, porcupines, and ground-dwelling birds. They consume the meat rapidly before more aggressive predators such as leopards, lions, baboons, jackals, and hyenas arrive and compel them to give it up. Vultures can even chase them away. Cheetahs are swift, but they aren't powerful or aggressive enough to pull their prey a long-distance or protect it from these ferocious competitors. Cheetahs only require water every three to four days.

Like humans and other mammals, Chickens go through a REM (rapid eye movement) phase of sleep, which is associated with dreaming. However, they have another sleep phase that humans do not, known as USWS, in which one half of the brain sleeps while the other half is awake. Chickens can sleep with one eye open, an evolutionary adaptation that allows them to watch for predators as they sleep.

The sounds made by a cheetah are not frightening. Cheetahs sound more like a house cat than a lion, which is noted for their fierce roar. They purr and meow. They also chirp and create churring noises. Listen to some of the Toronto Zoo's noisy cheetahs. Lions, tigers, leopards, and jaguars are the four roaring great cats. They can generate their threatening noises because their voice box has a ligament rather than the epihyal bone. Lower noises are produced as the ligament stretches. Cheetahs have a fixed voice box and vocal cords that are split. It permits them to purr but limits the noises they may produce, similar to "little cats."

Greyhound dogs and cheetahs have bus lines named after them, but house cats are just as fast: the typical running feline can reach speeds of up to 30 mph. In a school zone, that's enough to obtain a ticket.

Only the males are referred to as "peacocks." "Peafowl" is the collective term for these birds. The males are known as "peacocks," while the females are known as "peahens." The babies are known as "peachicks," but peacocks are more commonly known for their beautiful feathers and vibrant colors.

Crabs' claws may be able to frighten other species, but if that isn't enough, ghost crabs will snarl at their foes like a dog. Crabs, unlike our canine companions, generate these terrifying noises with fangs placed in their guts. They are part of the stomach's gastric mill machinery, where they rub against one other to grind up food.

Although there are around 25 billion chickens in the world today, more traditional or "heritage" breeds are increasingly in danger of becoming extinct. This is because industrialized chicken farming (and now factory farming) bred in attributes to improve meat and egg output while paying little attention to retaining the original breed features. It's notfunfun' fact, but it's vital to know.

This is one of the most fascinating facts about Eagles that we've discovered. The Bible considers these mighty creatures to be a manifestation of kindness and divine power. It is said that having confidence in God allows you to fly like an eagle. Eagles are frequently seen on state flags because they signify courage and independence, as well as incredible power and ability.

These creatures, renowned for their peaceful lifestyle, like going for a swim. Even though a sloth travels 2 meters per minute on land, it can travel 5 times quicker in the water! Because of their sluggish metabolic rate, animals can go for extended periods without breathing.

Elephants, the largest land animals, consists of around 150,000 units of muscle units in their trunk. Trunks of the elephants are considered the most sensitive organ found in any mammal. Asian elephants have been found to pick up a peanut, shell it, blow the shell out and eat the nut. Moreover, Elephants use their trunks to suck the water, and a trunk can contain up to 8 liters of water. Isn't this amazing?

Sharks can be found in all the temperate and tropical oceans except the Mediterranean Sea. And the whale sharks used to migrate thousands of miles to different feeding grounds. But they move very slowly, around 3 miles per hour.

They don't have fancy tail feathers because they're born with them. Male peachicks do not begin to grow their showy trains until they are about three years old. In fact, because peachicks are nearly identical to their mothers, it's difficult to tell their sex. The males will begin to change color to their vibrant blue around the age of six months.

They have existed since the time of the dinosaurs and may even be older than the dinosaurs. Cockroaches are found all throughout the world, and there are thousands of different species. All cockroach species can evolve in a variety of environments.

Tigers, on the other hand, have antiseptic saliva, so if you get a bruise and want to disinfect it, go to the doctor Tiger, just kidding! Typically, they will lick the affected area to prevent infection.

We often get fascinated by the horn of rhinos. But have you ever thought that of what stuff these horns are made up of? Actually, the horn of Rhino is made up of the same protein as our fingernails, i.e., Keratin. And the horn of rhinos grows with the time and continue to grow for the whole of their life. The horn of a white horned rhino grows about 7 cm in a year, and there is a record of 150cm longhorn of a rhino. Isn't this interesting?

Wildlife enthusiasts have captured the Australian species Lyrebirds, mimicking other birds and other creatures such as koalas and artificial noises like vehicle alarms and camera shutters.

Every flock of sheep has its own hierarchy, and the ranking is determined by a sheep's gender and age. Leaders have superior positions at the feeder or when resting and can influence the behavior of other sheep. The process remains unchanged until shearing, when it sparks a mini-revolution. Along with their distinguishing traits, look, and scent, sheep, lose their position and must compete to determine who is worthy of being at the top.

Those who come into contact with a grizzly bear will undoubtedly want to keep out of reach of the animal's razor-sharp claws. They'll also want to stay clear of the grizzly's mouth since, according to National Geographic, these animals "have a bite-force of over 8,000,000 pascals." This indicates that grizzly bears can shatter a bowling ball between their teeth. Yikes!

The most heartbreaking aspect is that tiger cubs are born blind, with only a few surviving. The newborn cubs can't see anything and can only follow their mother's scent. Because they are born blind and unable to keep up, the majority of them die of hunger or cold. Some are even devoured by male Tigers to make the Tigress available for mating. That is completely insane!

Although it is not true that all Tigers are nocturnal, they do prefer to conduct the majority of their hunting activities at night. The reason for this is that Tigers prefer to avoid human conflict during the day and patrol their territory at night.

Mongolia is home to the two-humped Bactrian camel. The Thousand Camel Festival is organised by a local non-governmental organisation dedicated to preserving and protecting the Bactrian camel population, which has been progressively dwindling for the previous twelve years. At the event, you'll be able to engage with the camels and learn about the nomadic lifestyle of camel herders firsthand.

Colored honey can be produced by bees. A biogas plant in France manages waste from a Mars chocolate factory, where M&Ms are manufactured. Beekeepers in the area noticed that their bees were producing honey with "unnatural shades of green and blue." According to a British Beekeepers' Association spokesperson, the coloured honey was caused by bees eating the sugary M&M waste.
