Frequently Asked Questions
What is the weirdest animal fact?
Some of the weirdest facts include: sea cucumbers can eject their internal organs to scare predators, platypuses sweat milk, and tardigrades can survive in outer space! Every animal has something bizarre and amazing about it.
Why do octopuses have blue blood?
Octopuses have blue blood because they use hemocyanin (a copper-based protein) to carry oxygen, unlike humans who use hemoglobin (iron-based). Hemocyanin turns blue when oxygenated, which is why their blood appears blue instead of red.
How long can a snail sleep?
Snails can sleep for up to 3 years! They enter a state called estivation during dry or cold conditions, sealing themselves inside their shells with a layer of mucus to conserve moisture and energy until the weather improves.
Why are flamingos pink?
Flamingos are born with grey feathers. They turn pink because of carotenoid pigments found in the algae and crustaceans they eat. Without this diet, they would stay greyish-white! Zoo flamingos are fed special food to maintain their pink color.
Do elephants really never jump?
Yes, elephants are the only mammals that cannot jump! Their massive weight makes jumping biomechanically impossible. However, they can run surprisingly fast — up to 25 mph (40 km/h) — and they are excellent swimmers.
What animal has the most hearts?
Earthworms have the most hearts — they have 5 pairs of aortic arches that function like hearts, pumping blood throughout their segmented bodies. But the animal with the most actual hearts is the hagfish, which has 4 hearts!
