ANIMALS

Part 17 of 32
  • Molerats are the only eusocial vertebrates known to man. This means that these mammals live in colonies similar to those of ants and termites, with a single fertile queen giving birth to nonreproductive workers and soldiers. Molerats are also famous for their incredibly powerful jaws, the muscles of which constitute 25% of their body mass. Baby molerats are raised on a diet of their older sibling's fecal pellets, emitting a special cry when hungry to summon a worker.
  • Moles are able to tunnel through 300 feet of earth in a day.
  • Of all known forms of animals life ever to inhabit the Earth, only about 10 percent still exist today.
  • On average, pigs live for about 15 years.
  • Owls have eyeballs that are tubular in shape, because of this, they cannot move their eyes.



  • One we discover how to appreciate the timeless values in our daily experiences, we can enjoy the best things in life.
    Jerome K. Jerome
