The common goldfish is the only animal that can see both infra-red and ultra-violet light.
More than 99.9% of all the animal species that have ever lived on earth were extinct before the coming of man...... and they blame the human race for making a few extinct?
Cat's urine glows under a blacklight.... I can almost see the rush now to buy black lights to find out if it's true
Human birth control pills work on gorillas.... ever noticed them in a queue at the family planning clinics?
During WW II, Americans tried to train bats to drop bombs

anyway that's a few days worth...
