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.

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.

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!

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!

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.

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.

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.

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?

Russian scientists disproved the ancient concept of two-color vision. The experiment, which involved detecting full and empty food bowls of various hues, revealed that our pets are just as adept as humans are at recognizing the colors blue and yellow. Dogs, contrary to common perception, do not perceive the world in black and white. They, on the other hand, can't tell the difference between green and red.

They don't have to be slaughtered just to get their feathers. Fortunately, peacocks shed their train every year after mating season, allowing the feathers to be collected and sold without harming the birds. A peacock's average lifespan in the wild is about 20 years. Their beautiful feathers are used for decoration as well as handicrafts.

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.

Napoleon Bonaparte, the great conqueror, was once assaulted by...bunnies. The emperor had asked for a rabbit hunt for himself and his troops. His chief of staff organized it and had soldiers collect up 3,000 bunnies for the occasion. The hunt was set to begin after the rabbits were freed from their cages. That was the plan, at least! The rabbits, on the other hand, raced toward Bonaparte and his soldiers in a vicious and relentless onslaught. And we were told that Waterloo was the greatest defeat of the conqueror...

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?

You might think that only fish have gills, but several species of sea snakes breathe through their skin as well. Hydrophis cyanocinctus, for example, has been discovered to breathe through the top of its own head. It has a small hole and a collection of blood vessels at the top of its head that picks up oxygen from the seawater and sends it to the reptile's brain as it moves underwater.

We are well aware of the teeth of the sharks. Sharks have several rows of teeth & have the capability of losing and replacing the teeth so many times in their lifetime. Sharks, as predators play an important role in the health of marine ecosystems- by eating the fishes, sharks maintain the food chain.

Mother hens teach their chicks not to ingest potentially harmful grains, where to obtain food, and how to forage. Chickens also mimic one other's actions; as chicken keepers are well aware, they will all do it if you can get one chicken to do anything you want.

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.

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.

Polar bears are heavyweight, and in them, male polar bears weigh more than female polar bears. Male polar bears are twice the size of female polar bears and can weigh up to 800kg. In addition to this, male polar bears can measure up to 3 meters long and are the largest land carnivore globally.

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.

Although the Incas brought llamas and alpacas to Machu Picchu, and tourists enjoy taking selfies with llamas today, neither species is native to this region of Peru. Llamas and alpacas prefer elevations of 13,000 feet (4,000 m) or higher. The llamas you see today at Machu Picchu—and even the grass they eat!—were brought in specifically for tourism purposes.

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.

Have you ever wondered or thought why snakes may make you feel uneasy? They don't even have eyelids! As a result, they cannot blink their eyes, and they sleep with their eyes wide open.
