Are you aware?

That by eating a banana, a mosquito will probably bite you.

It's true, but it sounds rare.

How about the animals that lay eggs,

they have no belly button.

Yet they can shuffle with their legs.

Children grow faster in the Spring.

Winter baking,

hibernating might be the thing.

How fascinating; bullfrogs

dont sleep.

For me, it's the opposite,

no sleep, I count sheep.

Did you know?

Ants can smell more substantial than a dog.

Very unusual.

Baked beans aren't baked,

but stewed

The sunset on Mars,

is blue.

Despite the camel having a hump,

its spine is straight,

Now that is unusual,

and hard to even relate.

Did you know?

The beaver was once the size of a bear.

Wow, that one I certainly had to share.

Smelling apples or bananas

can help you lose weight.

I need to shop in the produce department.

This sounds great.

Is it true?

At birth, a baby panda is smaller than a mouse.

Who knew?

The hummingbird is the only bird,

that can fly backwards.

Okay, that is the funniest thing I have ever heard.
