Optimistic Octopus!!!

Image
 Octopus, what a lousy creature! (you can even use it as a floor mop😂) They eat their arms when bored. Some octopus  turn to a disturbing behavior known as autophagy, or eating their own appendages , in such non-stimulating environments. They pack poison. All octopuses are thought to have some venom that comes from bacteria living inside the animals. A bite from a small blue-ringed octopus can paralyze a human adult in minutes. They live fast and die young. For all of their amazing abilities, octopuses have short lives that typically last only a few years. Some species drop dead after just six months. They're playful. Octopuses are very curious and need stimulation. They might even engage in what humans would call "play." A scientist quoted in:  "Octopus!" A tale of one specimen pushing a plastic bottle over and over again at a stream of water flowing into its tank — almost like it was bouncing a ball underwater. THAT'S IT FOR TODAY!!

Bombastic Bear!!!

Bear, what a heavy creature! (as if you all don't know😂) They can be as small as four feet long and about 60 pounds (the sun bear) to as big as eight feet long and more than a thousand pounds (the polar bear) .  They have nonretractable claws, short tails, and excellent sense of smell. They’re typically solitary, except for mothers with cubs. On average, bears can live up to 25 years in the wild and 50 in captivity.  In case of humans, we have the logo of "SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST" but for bears, it is :   "SURVIVAL OF THE FATTEST"! A bear has to eat approximately equal to it's weight daily. THAT'S IT FOR TODAY!! KEEP READING!! **********************************************************

Fabulous Frog!!!

Frog! What a wonderful creature! (kindly don't go on it's texture 😂 ) These amphibians are not as active as they look. They go under two major sleeping patterns, namely, Aestivation and Hibernation . Well, looking at the varieties above, we can surely predict that they are very well camouflaged. They are active only in Monsoon, in which they breed. Meaning that they are not that dirty and disgusting as they look because they have active time only during rainy times plus they are amphibians. Now there are several myths related to these guys. the most popular is : "WE GET WARTS WHEN WE TOUCH FROGS" Now, it is not true. the reason is warts are caused due to  Human Papillomarvis  (HPV) which is fortunately not spread by frogs.
