Amazing facts really, nice one.

A great post bro.

But I think you have to cross-check this

"Killer whales kill sharks by torpedoing up into the shark’s stomach from underneath, causing the shark to explode."

what happens is that when killer whale torpedo into a shark, it flips the shark belly up. Shark are know to go into "coma-kind" state when they are belly up, this gives the killer whale the opportunity to tear into the lifeless body of the shark.

Ants never sleep. Also they don’t have lungs. Worker ants may live seven years and the queen may live as long as 15 years.

Horses and cows sleep while standing up.


The horn of a rhinoceros is made from compacted hair rather than bone or another substance.



Despite the white, fluffy appearance of Polar Bears fur, it actually has black skin

For every human in the world there are one million ants.

For every person there are rougly 200 million insects.

Killer whales are not whales at all, rather a species of dolphin.


A newborn kangaroo is about 1 inch in length. It then grows inside its mother’s bag.

@OP Cool facts. Here's more:
Elephants can smell water 3 miles away.
Snails can grow new eyes. A snail only mates once in a lifetime.
Oysters can change from one gender to another and back again depending on which is best for mating. Many fish can change s.ex during the course of their lives. Others, especially rare deep-sea fish, have both male and female s.ex organs.
We humans share 98.4% of our DNA with a chimpanzee.
A pig's horgazim (or releasing; modified coz of mods) can last up to 30 minutes.

More facts:
1.A snake can smell its prey 5 kilometres away, and proceed towards the direction of smell.
2.The egrets(Lekeleke) can never be eaten by crocodile. the egret feed on leftover meat in the croc mouth, thereby serving as toothpick.
