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!

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.

You probably already knew that Royal Bengal Tigers are the largest of the wild cats, but did you know that male Tigers can weigh up to 300 kilograms? Jeez! That's the equivalent of weighing a group of six average humans. All they have to do is sit on top of you and lick their paws, and you're dead.

Earthworms each has both male and female sex organs, yet they are incapable of self-fertilization. Earthworms spend most of their life underground, where they build intricate burrow networks. They contribute significantly to soil fertility and so play a vital role in gardens and farmland.

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.

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?

Bandhavgarh National Park, also known as the 'Land of the Tigers,' has the highest density of Royal Bengal tigers in the world, as well as some of the most exotic wildlife that is difficult to see in other parts of India. There's a saying in the park that goes, "In any other park, you're lucky if you see a tiger; in Bandhavgarh, you're unlucky if you don't see (at least) one."

Cats are genetically programmed to be unable to taste sweets. They will most likely nibble on your platter if it contains meat, but they will ignore it if it includes dessert.

Chickens (and all birds) are true dinosaurs since one lineage of dinosaurs survived the cataclysmic extinction 65 million years ago, the birds. Chickens descended from dinosaurs and are the closest surviving related to the mighty Tyrannosaurus rex. On the other hand, Chickens are the most prehistoric and 'dinosaur-like of all of our current birds. You can see a velociraptor just by watching them run and some of the sounds they make (I'm looking at you, broody hen).

Ostriches have a wingspan of up to 6.6 feet despite not being able to fly. Rather than aiding in flight, these appendages assist birds in maintaining their balance while running or defending themselves against predators. They can also function as rudders, allowing the ostriches to change directions while running. Finally, wings aid ostriches in their courtship displays, which include chasing and dancing to assert dominance over other potential mates.

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.

Tigers are forced into unnatural situations in which they must share or remain in certain areas in a man-made environment; this is when they are referred to as an ambush or streak; even a Tigress with her cubs is referred to as an ambush.

Dogs' ears, in addition to being able to move in a variety of ways, can hear considerably higher frequency noises than human ears. In fact, dogs can hear noises that are twice as far away as we can—and it looks that tiny dogs are even better at it. This is due to the fact that the smaller a mammal's head is, the more frequencies it can take up and compare in each ear. That is how they (and us) determine the source of noises.

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...

This scientist grabbed a young monkey and began raising it with his 10-month-old kid. It outperformed the boy in all academic tests but was unable to learn to talk. The experiment had to be halted because the scientist's kid began to emulate the chimp's conduct. He made monkey noises when he wanted to eat or drink instead of learning a language.

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.

Except for humans, these apes live in the jungle, as do all other great apes. The more vigorous the rainforest in that location, the healthier the gorilla population. They not only consume a large portion of its leaves, but their scat also serves as a highly rich fertilizer for the forest floor. Plantlife increases faster in locations where they live than in other areas.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Male seahorses are the ones who become pregnant and give birth to their progeny. A male seahorse may give birth to anywhere from one to two thousand fry at a time. A single pregnancy lasts roughly two to four weeks. When the fry are ready to be born, the male seahorse contracts his muscles in order to eject the progeny from its pouch.

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.

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.
