Just like Human beings sleep the same thing also applies to all Animals. the sleeping pattern is what is different among animals with unusual sleeping habits.

Do you know that there some Animals with unusual sleeping habits?

Some animals require very little time to sleep while others require a longer time to sleep.

Animals like mammals, Birds, Fish, Reptiles and Amphibians all have different unusual sleeping habits.

Below contains the Top 10 Animals with unusual sleeping habits



10. Bats
It may not seem like the ideal sleeping position to us, but, for bats, sleeping whilst hanging upside down works. It not only keeps them out the way of predators but it also means they are in the perfect position to fly away if needed. They don’t have to worry about falling off either, as their strong talons keep them in place.



9. Sea Otters
For sea otters, the water is where it’s at when it comes to nap time. Floating on their backs keeps them away from land-based predators, whilst wrapping themselves in seaweed stops them from drifting away with the currents. Sometimes, up to 100 sea otters can be seen sleeping together in this way in what’s called an otter raft. Some may even link hands with a fellow otter to keep them together whilst they snooze.



8. Giraffes
Animals like giraffes require little time to sleep, five minutes at any one time and as little as 30 minutes per day.

Being a large animal in the middle of open plains makes taking a risk-free nap impossible as any time spent sleeping is time at risk from predators. So, they sleep for a very short time, sometimes sitting down with their heads resting on their backs but often standing up and ready to run.
