Animals

These are some fun animal facts.

• Dolphins have excellent eyesight and hearing as well as the ability to use echolocation for finding the exact location of objects. 
• Tigers can reach the length up to 11ft and weigh as much as 660 pounds. They also not only have stripes on their fur, but also on their skin.        
• Wolves have two layers of fur, which allow them to survive in temperatures as low as minus 40 degrees Celsius. In warmer weather they flatten their fur to keep cool.
• Giraffes have blueish-purple tongues which are tough and covered in bristly hair to help them with eating the thorny Acacia trees.
• Some sharks remain on the move their entire lives. This forces water over their gills, delivering oxygen to the blood stream. If the shark stops moving then it will suffocate and die.
• Ostriches can run faster than horses, and the male ostriches can roar like lions.
• House flies have a lifespan of 14 days, and they always hum in the key of F.
• Cats conserve energy by sleeping an average of 13 to 14 hours a day.
• Scientists believe that an elephants trunk is made of 100,000 muscles, but no bones, and they can cool themselves by the circulating blood through the vessels in their ears.

     God created so many cool animals, and when you read about how intricate and detailed each of them are how can you say that there was no creator? Seriously, have you checked out the human eye?
