Did you know?
There are lots of strange animals in the world, and there are lots of strange facts about animals too. For example, …
Many people believe that fish – particularly goldfish – have a very short memory and can only remember things for about three seconds. In fact, it seems that goldfish can remember things for at least three months. That’s quite a long time, isn’t it? Here at ‘Teen Fun’. We can’t remember what we did last week.
We all love butterflies. They’re beautiful and they make us think of summer and flowers and nice things like that. But do you know how butterflies taste their food? They don’t use a mouth like we do. They use their feet! Yes, that’s right. Imagine putting your foot into bowl of ice cream to see if it tastes nice! Strange!
We found several interesting facts about crocodiles. Firstly, a crocodile can’t really move its tongue. This is because it’s stuck to the bottom of its mouth. So, a crocodile might eat you, but it won’t lick you first! Secondly, think about humans. When we’re children, our teeth fall out. And we grow new ones, don’t we? But when we become more adults, that don’t happen. If men or women lose teeth, the dentist has to give them new ones. But crocodiles are different. Their teeth are very sharp (of course!) but they fall out all the time – even when they’re adults. A crocodile usually has about 70 teeth in its mouth – but during its lifetime it can grow about 3 000 teeth. Yes – 3 000! That’s a lot of crocodile teeth on the bottom of the river.
We like mice. We think they’re cute and sweet. But here‘s a strange fact. It’s not about real mouse, but about a famous cartoon character: Mickey Mouse. Well, in fact, it’s about Walt Disney, the man who created Mickey Mouse. Did you know… that in real life Walt Disney was scared of mice? Yes, he was! Strange but true!
21) Goldfish can remember things that happened to mouth ago. T/F/DS
22) Butterflies use a tongue in their mouth to taste food. T/F/DS
23) Crocodile tongues are a strange color. T/F/DS
24) Walt Disney was scared of mice. T/F/DS
