JAKARTA - Have you ever imagined an animal that can taste food using legs, or a mammal that has a milk gland but has no nipples? The animal world turns out to keep so many strange secrets that are rarely known.
Some of these facts even sound like fiction, but really happen in nature. Get ready, because a row of strange facts about the following animals will amaze you as well as amaze.
Charm is indeed super adorable with a black-and-white fur pattern like a sickle and a cute walking style. But believe me, you don't want to be nearby when the penguin wants to defecate. Some species can actually launch a direct bomb' horizontally or curved, depending on the type. With an unusually strong rectal pressure it can even shoot up nearly 8 km/h and reach a distance of up to 1.3 meters! When compared to humans, it's the same as a person can "shoot" his stomach contents as far as 3 meters into the air. It sounds disgusting, but there's a logical reason behind it is that the penguin did this in order to keep their nest clean.
If you think 'durfake bomb' is impressive, wait until you see a urinary panda. Pandas are known to be careless and prone to falling from trees. However, their athletic abilities will be clearly visible when urinating. Male pandas are known to stand by hand while urinating to mark their territory. Because inverse urinating allows them to spray a higher aroma on trees, as female panda summoners and a marker of strength for other male pandas.
Platypus is the strangest animal in the animal world. They include mammals, but lay eggs and have a beak. They don't have nipples, but still have milk glands that produce milk. The female platypus secretes milk from its skin, making it look like it's sweating. A platypus baby, known as the puggles, is quite milk in a special curve located on his mother's body.

There are more animals that 'swept', but not ordinary sweat. The hippos apparently emit red liquid which at first glance makes them look like they are sweating blood. Don't worry, this liquid is not blood and not sweat but a natural moisturizer that also functions as a skin protection from water, a hot repeller, and even antibiotics. With super sensitive skin, this 'blood sweat' helps the hippos stay safe even though they often soak in the water for a long time and are exposed to the heat of the sun.
You may think all goats have the same voice, but that's not the case. These animals changed their vocals based on their social environment. A 2012 study published in Animal Behavior, reported by Mental Foss, Monday, September 15, found that the sound of young pygmy goats placed in the same social group would begin to sound familiar. On the other hand, goats raised in different social groups will sound different over time.
If you peek in the ear of an owl, there is a possibility you can see the back of your eyes! All owls are known to have big eyes, but there are certain species such as northern saw-whet gul whose eye size is relatively much larger than their tiny body. That's the reason why their back of the eye can be seen through the earhole. Unique isn't it?
