Trivia for Squiggle #XXXIX
This week's installment of Trivia for Squiggle is all about various animals. The next installment (which WILL arrive on time this week!) will bring us to the 1,000 mark!
951. It was discovered on a space mission that a frog can throw up. The frog throws up it's stomach first, so the stomach is dangling out of it's mouth. Then the frog uses it's forearms to dig out all of the stomach's contents and then swallows the stomach back down again.
952. Most elephants weigh less than the tongue of the blue whale.
953. Blue whales weigh as much as 30 elephants and are as long as 3 Greyhound buses.
954. A goldfish has a memory span of three seconds.
955. A pregnant goldfish is called a twit.
956. A baby eel is called an elver.
957. A baby oyster is called a spat.
958. Lake Nicaragua boasts the only fresh-water sharks in the entire world.
959. Crocodiles and alligators are surprisingly fast on land. Although they are rapid, they are not agile; so if you ever find yourself chased by one, run in a zigzag line. You'll lose him/her every time.
960. A cockroach can live without its head, until it starves to death.
961. Ants stretch when they wake up. They also appear to yawn in a very human manner before taking up the tasks of the day.
962. Only female mosquitoes bite.
963. The housefly hums in the middle octave, key of F.
964. Butterflies taste with their hind feet.
965. Mosquitoes are attracted to the color blue twice as much as to any other color.
966. Bees have 5 eyes. There are 3 small eyes on the top of a bee's head and 2 larger ones in front.
967. The outdoor temperature can be estimated to within several degrees by timing the chirps of a cricket. It is done this way: count the number of chirps in a 15-second period, and add 37 to the total. The result will be very close to the actual Fahrenheit temperature. This formula, however, only works in warm weather.
968. If one places a tiny amount of liquor on a scorpion, it will instantly go mad and sting itself to death.
969. Every night, wasps bite into the stem of a plant, lock their mandibles (jaws) into position, stretch out at right angles to the stem, and, with legs dangling, fall asleep.
970. A giraffe can go without water longer than a camel can.
971. The male gypsy moth can "smell" the virgin female gypsy moth from 1.8 miles away.
972. Cat's urine glows under a black light.
973. Reindeer milk has more fat than cow milk.
974. Horses cannot vomit.
975. Only humans and horses have hymens.
