Did you know:

1. That duck billed platapus (platapi? platapusses?) sweat milk cause they don’t have mammary glands

2. That polar bears have black skin and that their fur turns yellow as they age (this second fact was told to me by a zoo worker as an explaination for why the polar bears at the Vancouver zoo - which doesn’t exist any more - looked like they’d been rolling  in pee puddles)
3. That dung beetles don’t drink water - they get all their liquid needs from the poo they eat

4. That a group of meerkats is called a mob

5. That the sale of clown fish actually increased after the movie finding Nemo (you know, the movie about a clown fish who is captured for a fish tank and who tries to escape to get back to the wild ocean where his father is frantically searching for him)

6. That wallowing vegetarian hippos can actually quite easily bite a man in half (or a woman for that matter)
