Fun fact:
At birth, a baby panda is smaller than a mouse.
True that!
True true true!
Just like non-violent attempts to escape Mexican prisons are not punished because “it’s human nature to want freedom.”
Oh wow
Sloths only poop once a week. They climb down from their trees, dig a hole, do their business, and then cover it up.
Its a cool fact
Wombat feces are cube-shaped. Wombats stack their cube-shaped poops as a form of communication.
Hmm.. Cube shaped
False that!
Fun fact:
Plants came before seeds. According to the fossil record, early plants resembled moss and reproduced with single-celled spores. Multicellular seeds didn’t evolve for another 150 million years.
Strange fact. But true
You can see stars as they were 4,000 years ago with the naked eye. Without a telescope, all the stars we can see lie within about 4,000 light-years of us. That means at most you’re seeing stars as they were 4,000 years ago, around when the pyramids were being built in Egypt.
Oh cool. I'll bookmark it
This storm has been raging for at least 300 years and is larger than Earth.
Fun fact:
Our dead cells are eaten by other cells in our body. Don’t worry; it’s meant to happen. When cells inside your body die, they’re scavenged by phagocytes – white blood cells whose job it is to digest other cells.
Panda cool
Such an embarrassment
For wha?
Smells can pass through liquid. Please don’t try smelling underwater (your nose will not appreciate it), but smell does protrude through liquid.
It's not true?
A koala's poop is square.

Bats aren’t blind. Despite the famous idiom, bats can indeed see, but they still use their even more famous echolocation to find prey.
Animals can experience time differently from humans. To smaller animals, the world around them moves more slowly compared to humans. Salamanders and lizards, for example, experience time more slowly than cats and dogs. This is because the perception of time depends on how quickly the brain can process
What's the difference between a salamander and an axolotl?
Axolotl are salamander, but they never grow up. Don't go through metamorphosis at all.
Then whats a Mexican walking fish?
Very fishy.
The average adult human brain weighs about 3 pounds; that’s about as much as a half-gallon of milk. Men* tend to have slightly larger brains than women, but this does not impact intelligence.
My weights less
You deserve it....you deserve it....

Murder rates rise in summer. Ever feel angry or in a bad mood when the weather is hot? Well, you’re not alone. Violent crime goes up in hotter weather, and in the US, murder rates reportedly rise by 2.7 per cent over the summer.

Sea level’ isn’t actually level. As the strength of the force generated by the Earth’s spin is strongest at the equator, the average sea level bulges outward there, putting it further from the centre of the Earth than at the poles. Differences in the strength of the Earth’s gravity at different points also cause variation.

Donkeys may not sleep in bathtubs in Brooklyn, New York. In Arkansas, it’s alligators that aren’t allowed in the tub, while in South Carolina, it’s horses.
You can’t fold a piece of A4 paper more than eight times. As the number of layers doubles each time, the paper rapidly gets too thick and too small to fold. The current world paper-folding record belongs to California high school student Britney Gallivan, who in 2002 managed to fold a 1.2km-long piece of tissue paper 12 times.
The tallest man ever recorded was American giant Robert Wadlow (1918–1940), who stood 8 feet 11 inches. Wadlow's size was the result of an abnormally enlarged pituitary gland.

Laughing came before language. How do we know? Some researchers tickled baby apes, which, beyond being adorable, showed that they share the same structure as ours and likely arose in our common ancestors millions of years ago. Language came about much later.Laughing came before language. How do we know?

It was a pretty good idea wasn't it.
A bit cheeky, but it's been fun.
Pine trees can tell if it's about to rain. Next time you see a pine cone, take a close look. If it’s closed, that’s because the air is humid, which can indicate rain is on its way
