So today we
have some strange animal facts that I bet you didn’t
know!
So you
think the nosiest land animal would be something
like an elephant, or even a lion’s roar. But it’s
not. It’s actually a monkey. The howler monkey is
the nosiest land animal and you can hear its cries
up to 2 miles away.
There’s this river in East
Australia named the Alligator River. This was a
mistake because there are no alligators in this
river at all, only crocodiles.
Believe it or not, elephant’s
teeth are so big that they can weigh up to 12
pounds.
So you
know those little tiny crickets that like to make
noise at night? Well there’s a cricket in South
Africa called the giant African cricket and what’s
weird about this cricket is that it actually eats
human hair.
So you
know how you usually need about 8 hours of sleep at
night? Well guess how much sleep and elephant
needs? An elephant only sleeps about 2 hours a
day.
There’s this lizard in New
Zealand called the tuatara. And what’s interesting
about the tuatara is that it has 3 eyeballs. Two on
the front, and one on the top.
Do you
know the Disney movie, The Lion King, where the
little lion roars? Well that’s not true because a
lion cannot roar until it is at least 2 years
old.
So I
only weight about 107lbs but a full grown giraffe’s
neck can weight up to 500lbs.
A
rhinoceros beetle is really strong. It’s so strong
that it can carry up to 850 times its weight on its
back. Now if you were that strong, you would be
able to carry up to 76 family size cars on your
back.
Now
here’s something kind of cool. So tigers have
stripes right? Well if you shave a tiger, not only
is the stripes on their fur, but it is imprinted on
their skin as well. And if you don’t believe me,
why don’t you try shaving a tiger.
So if
you think your ex boyfriend eats a lot, well an
elephant eats up to 500lbs of hay a day and drinks
about 60 gallons of water a day.
So how
do you tell a difference between a toad and a frog?
Well one ways is that a frog can jump, but a toad
cant.
Most
snakes lay eggs, but an anaconda, which is the
worlds largest snake, doesn’t. It actually gives
birth to live young.
So you
probably think that all zebras look alike because
of their stripes. Well their stripes are like
fingerprints. No two zebras have the same
stripes.
You
probably think that elephants aren’t good swimmers,
but that’s not true. Elephants have been seen for
miles swimming off the Indian Ocean.
Another interesting thing about
elephants is that they’re the only mammal in the
world that can’t jump.
You better get your
floaties on because in an upcoming video we’re going to
be giving you facts about marine
animals.
And in a future
video, facts about drugs.
