You might think that snails are slow and boring animals that they only use their time to crawl and devour. But in fact, snails can sleep for three years. Snails have an amazing ability to pass through access to a species calledHibernation(hibernation) orSummer hibernation(estivation) to sleep for a long time. Hibernation is when snails hide themselves in their shells during cold or dry seasons and secrete a layer of mucus to seal the shell to keep them hydrated and warm. Summer hibernation refers to the hot or wet season when snails attach themselves to tree trunks or rocks and secrete a hard shell to cover their bodies to prevent water loss and parasite invasion. In both states, the snail's metabolism and heartbeat are greatly reduced, and it can even stop breathing. In this way, the snail can save energy and resources and wait for a more suitable environment to appear. It has been recorded that some snails can sleep in this state for more than three years. So, don't think that snails are very boring and boring animals, they are actually very patient and intelligent animals.
You might think that lions are very brave and mighty creatures that can use their roars to scare enemies and demonstrators. But in fact, lions can measure distance with their own roars. Lions have an amazing ability to judge the location and distance of other lions or prey by making roars of varying frequency and intensity. The roar of a lion can travel far and can even penetrate obstacles in forests and grasslands. When lions hear responses from other lions or prey, they can calculate the approximate position and distance of the other person based on factors such as the volume, clarity, and direction of the voice. In this way, the lion can use this information to develop its own attack or defense strategy. So, don't think that lions are very rough and simple animals, they are actually very precise and complex animals.
You may think that pandas are very cute and docile animals that will only use their time to eat bamboo and play. But in reality, pandas pretend to be pregnant.

Pandas, on the other hand, enjoy these treatments until humans discover that they are not really pregnant, or that they themselves are tired of this life. It is estimated that more than half of pandas will pretend to be pregnant, and some pandas will do this over and over again. So, don't think that pandas are very honest and innocent animals, they are actually very cunning and scheming animals.
You might think that foxes are very intelligent and dexterous animals that they can use their sight and sense of smell to catch their prey. But in fact, the fox can be located by the Earth's magnetic field. Foxes have an amazing ability to judge the direction and distance between themselves and their targets by sensing the earth's magnetic field. When a fox finds a mouse hiding in the snow or grass, they jump up and swoop down with their head to the north to accurately bite the mouse. This behavior is calledJerboas(mousing) is a very effective predation technique. According to statistics, foxes can have a success rate of 73% when they hunt with this method, while when they hunt with other methods, they have a success rate of only 18%.

You might think that sharks are scary and terrifying creatures that can bite anything with their big teeth. But in fact, sharks have countless small teeth. The shark's ** is covered with a layer calledPismucifera(dermal denticles), they look like miniature teeth, each with a sharp tip and a backward sloping spine. These skin disfibes can bring a lot of benefits to sharks. First, they reduce the friction of the current against the shark**, which increases the speed and efficiency of the shark's swimming. Second, they protect sharks** from parasites and bacteria, thus keeping sharks healthy and clean. Finally, they can increase the hardness and sharpness of the shark**, making it more powerful and advantageous when attacking or defending. So, don't think that sharks are a very single and monotonous animal, they are actually a multifaceted and multifunctional animal.
You might think that orangutans are very intelligent and nimble creatures that can use their fingers and tools to accomplish a variety of tasks. But in reality, orangutans use twigs to brush their teeth. Orangutans have the amazing ability to make a toothbrush-like tool by breaking off a branch or grass stem and then peeling off part of the skin or leaves. In this way, orangutans can use the tool to clean their own teeth and mouth or those of their companions. Orangutans use this tool to brush their teeth after eating food or before going to bed to remove food debris and bacteria from between their teeth.

You might think that snakes are very silent and secretive animals, and they only use their tongue and eyes to perceive their surroundings. But in fact, snakes can hear sounds. Although snakes do not have an outer and middle ear, they have an inner ear that can receive sound signals by conducting sound waves through the skull. When the sound waves reach the snake's jaw, they are transmitted through the snake's skull to the inner ear, allowing the snake to hear the sound. Snakes can hear low-frequency sounds, such as shaking on the ground or the footsteps of other animals. In this way, the snake can use the sound to determine its position and orientation, or to find prey or mate. So, don't think that snakes are very silent and insensible animals, they are actually very vocal and sensible animals.
You may think that birds are very light and graceful animals, and they can use their feathers and wings to fly and display. But in fact, birds can use their feathers to regulate their body temperature. There is a kind on the feathers of birds calledFeatherbranches(barbs), which can be contracted or diastolic to change the size of the space between the feathers. In this way, birds can use their feathers to control heat dissipation or heat preservation on their body surface. When birds feel cold, they shrink their feathers to make the gaps between their feathers smaller, thus reducing heat loss. When birds feel hot, they stretch their feathers to make the gaps between their feathers larger, increasing heat dissipation. So, don't think that birds are very simple and monolithic animals, they are actually very complex and multifunctional animals.
You may think that rats are a scary and nasty animal that will only use their fangs and claws to bite and destroy things. But in fact, rats laugh. Rats have an amazing ability to express their happiness and satisfaction by making a high-frequency sound.
