Unique Facts: All About Animals

Animal world is very exciting for us observe. In addition to their behavior, too many things we need to know, could even make us stunned when the know. Consider the following facts:

1. If we're talking about the fastest animal on earth, then we often associate with cheetahs, big cat species that live on the plains of Africa. Presumably this cat speed average of about 70 mph (114 km / h). However, did you know that actually the fastest animal is held by a bird called The Peregrine Falcon (Falco peregrinus) speed ever recorded is 390 km / h (242.3 mph)! Comparing with the highest speed ever achieved by F1 race car that only revolve around the number 370 km / h (229mph)! Animals that have a population spread across the continents except Antarctica was started by the destruction of endangered habitat in which they live by human activity.

2. Tofu fish screens (sailfish)? Fish is becoming a favorite among professional anglers are apparently still a mystery to the experts the field of marine biology. This is because the movement of fish and delicious meat that is very fast and the rate of its displacement (migration) is very high. In addition, fish that have a Latin name Istiophorus albicans (for that was in the Pacific Ocean) and Istiophorus platypterus (for those residing in the Atlantic Ocean) is spread hundreds of miles from shore. Making it very difficult for experts to find their exact locations, the process of tagging (penomeran), and collecting data. However, recent research indicates that this fish really, Äòcepat '. Believe it not, 36 hours after laying, the eggs hatch directly! Not only that,

3. Let's talk about a strongest animal in the world. Speaking of the strongest animals, we often assume that the strongest animal is the elephant. But, you know that the African elephant can only lift a load with the proportion of 25% of the total weight? Try to compare it with a beetle rhinoceros (rhinoceros beetle The) capable of carrying as many as 850 times the total weight! In other words, the proportion of body weight, the elephant is still inferior to human beings capable of lifting loads up to 10 times his weight, even more.

4. Birds Camels (Ostrich), not just anybird. Her height can be reached 2.5 meters, weighing 180 kg. Besides a large, Birds Camels also have exceptional durability. These birds can survive in temperatures above 40 degrees Celsius until the temperature of 0 degrees Celsius. She is also spelled out a long, can reach around the age of 50 years. However, despite such a large ostrich, expenditures for meals, Birds Camels only reached roughly U.S. $ 75 a year. The only common difficulties in maintaining stable Bird Camel is a problem. Necessary land large enough, and fenced. The problem is, once a Bird Camels ran out of the fence, you need a car to chase and catch it, because the Birds Camels can run up to speeds of 50 km / h!

5. According to scientists, animals that have the loudest voice is the blue whale (Balaenoptera musculus), who also holds the title as the largest animal on earth. Blue whale sound louder than the sound Harley Davidson. Even louder than the voice the loudest rock concert, and also more
louder than a bomb blast. How hard is the blue whale sounds? Sound is 188 decibels fish ..! This figure is equal to one million times the jet engine noise (which reached a level of 120-130 decibels loudness). Please note that the level of loudness in a logarithmic increase. This means that every increase of 10 decibels means increasing the intensity of sound up to 10 times. This is one reason for us all to be thankful that these blue whales live only in the sea, hehe ....

6. Want to know the vertebrate animals (vertebrates), the smallest in the world? A kind of fish called the stout dwarf infantfish defined as vertebrate tiniest and lightest in the world. Fish that live in the surrounding waters of the Great Barrier Reef, Australia, this length is only 7 millimeters! Actually, the fish from Australia that has a rival, that is a kind of fish that has a latin name Paedocypris progenetica found in peat swamps in Sumatra Island. These animals have a length of about 7.9 millimeters.
