Ten fantastic facts about animals.

1. Albatrosses can fly and sleep at the same time. This is very useful because they sometimes fly for many days over the sea.

2. A cockroach can live for a week without a head.

3. Bees have a language. It is not a language of words but a language of dances. When a bee finds food, it flies back to the other bees and does a dance. The dance makes a shape like an '8'. The size and direction of the '8' shows the distance and direction of the food.

4. When your left eye moves, your right eye moves with it. But chameleons can move one eye up and the other eye down, or one eye left and the other eye right.

5. Mosquitoes are dangerous insects because they bite us. But did you know that only the females bite?

6. Bats always turn left when they fly out of their home at night. Nobody knows why.

7. Some chimpanzees can learn to understand 3,000 words.

8. An archerfish uses its mouth like a water gun. It shoots water at an insect. The insect falls, and the fish eats it.

9. Sand tiger sharks never have more than two baby sharks at one time. Why? Because the two strongest baby sharks eat their brothers and sisters inside their mother before they are born.
