An earthworm does not become two earthworms when you cut it in half.
Only the half of the worm that contains the mouth will survive. If a worm is cut too close to its vital organs both halves will die.

An iguana, for some reason, can commit suicide.
The only other animal capable of suicide is a human.A koala's fingerprints are almost identical to human ones.
At crime scenes they are sometimes mistaken to be human.An orca is a type of dolphin.
Orcas are more commonly known as killer whales, however, they are not whales.A duck's quack does actually echo.
It is a common misconception that it does not. This is because ducks rarely fly in areas where there are objects off of which the sound could bounce, like cliffs.Animals can also be hypnotised. You can easily hypnotise a chicken.
This can be done by putting its head on the ground and drawing a straight line in the dirt from its beak and directly away from it. The chicken will stay in this position anywhere from 15 seconds to 30 minutes.Bats are very clean animals and very few carry rabies, just like most other mammals.
Most rabies related deaths are caused by dogs.Bats can't see at night; they use echo-location to find their way.
They are not blind; they just have very poor sight.Cats can hear ultrasound; they can hear dog whistles.
Cats don't have the same reaction as dogs do; that is why this is such a common mistake.Chameleons change their colour to suit their mood - not their surroundings.
Blind chameleons will also change colour.Page 1 of 5
