Cheetah Isn't Fastest Animal, It's a Bug with Big Bite 😱

so it's a hot summer day you're outdoors enjoying the weather you'll want to lie in the cool grass somewhere in the shade just to relax but ew looks like someone spat there but it's actually a spittlebug's house these guys sip a lot of watery sap from the plants and when they process it it forms a lot of bubbles not less than 150 times their body mass daily all these bubbles form a cocoon where young insects can grow safely no bird or animal wants to eat this cocoon because it tastes bitter as if you licked a nintendo cartridge not so fast cheetah apparently dracula ant is the world's fastest animal and the vampires in the ant world they definitely win any burger eating contest since they're able to snap their jaws five thousand times faster than your eye can blink to understand how fast the dracula ant is you gotta make a video of his jaws chomping at 480 000 frames per second at this speed you'll see the ant slowly moving its mandibles they don't run but their mouths are rapid and they move those jaws so fast they even bend while snapping together now people can do that too snapping our fingers so that they bend the darkest animal out there is the im70 chicken not only these guys have black feathers eyes and claws they also have black bones the color is bluish black and it is deep if you ever try those chicken wings they'll look as if someone had marinated them in blackberry juice or squidding they say marco polo was the first to have discovered these odd or charming roosters back in 1298 the explorer wrote about a breed of chickens that were as black as cats and laid the best eggs this freshwater fish has been around since the beginning of the 20th century and probably remembers good old times with black and white and even silent movies one big mouth buffalo made it to 112 years old still the world's oldest creatures live in the sea there are deep sea sponges that are 11 000 years old and they're safe and sound this fish has incredible gills which lets it hold its breath for over four minutes meet the coffin fish a weird looking but tough animal they're also famous as sea toads they actually look much more like toads not classic fish with fins and scales they can also inflate because of the sea water they gulp so they expand just like a balloon in fact this super ability lets this fish hold its breath for several minutes because they actually get the oxygen from the water they keep inside but the absolute champion is the human the world's champion can survive holding the breath for over 20 minutes there are some animals that make their own clothes sponge crabs make a sort of hat from sponges to protect them from underwater bad guys to figure out how the crabs decided on their outfit researchers gave them some foam sponges that were different in sizes the bigger the crab is the bigger the sponge it chooses they use various techniques to get this perfect shape starting from cutting out a small hole for the head and then they see if the size fits them if they're good to go they continue to cut and dig into that sponge until it becomes a perfect hat recently researchers have spotted a mod that would drink birds tears while they sleep so far there were only three registered cases of animals feeding on other animals tears these were some amazon butterflies solitary bees and moths their regular diet mostly includes nectar but it does lack essential salts that aren't that easy to find elsewhere not only do they drink birds tears they also drink turtles tears crocodiles tears and those of many mammals found in the amazon jungle really crocodile tears some sea dwellers can emit red line for example the stoplight loose jaw fish uses it to catch dinner shrimps don't see the red light so the loose jaw fish can spot any red shrimp emitting pulses of red light and catches it without scaring the dinner away mammals can glow too a flying squirrel glows under uv light emitting pink light it happens because they're able to absorb light and emit it back in another wavelength the platypus may not have the largest cheek pouches but they're definitely the weirdest they keep gravel inside those pouches to help mash the food they normally eat worms shellfish snails these guys are toothless so gravel comes in handy when it comes to chewing the food it works just like a blender ooh makes you wonder what they use for the mouthwash huh now if humans had the same incredible cheeks just like chipmunks have we'd be able to transport our groceries right in our mouths in fact chipmunks can transport something as large as themselves in their oversized mouth luggage sections hamsters have the same superpower too and can even carry their young in the mouth in case of the need to run away a baby carrot which seems tiny for a human but significantly large for a hamster can disappear without a trace in between those huge cheeks the mariana snail fish which logically lives in the mariana trench is relatively small it's as large as two medium candy bars despite the size they can easily withstand the pressure that equals 1 600 elephants standing on it this fish has a unique body structure for example it has some gaps in the skull if their skull was uniform and had no holes it would never withstand the pressure in the depths of the mariana trench plus their cartilage skeleton is soft and flexible they also have no actual eyes but they really don't need them since they live in complete darkness in the world's deepest trench hey meet the pinocchio frog not hard to guess their nose can grow in size in the blink of an eye in various situations whenever they feel danger coming it gets larger when these frogs are calm and feel safe it goes back to normal it may also elongate when they want to attract mates and probably when they croak a lot just kidding do you enjoy it when it rains you probably grab a cup of hot chocolate cover yourself up with a blanket and sit on the windowsill looking at the drops dripping down the window if you like it you're definitely not a myanmar snub nose monkey that's been recently discovered guess where in myanmar their nostrils are so upturned and exposed to the outer world that they sneeze every time it rains but if you were in a choir you have something in common snub knows monkeys like singing together amazon pink river dolphins aren't born pink they're young or always gray but the older they get the pinker they turn it's like people having wrinkles when they age and these guys simply get a different color hey i like to get a little pink instead of those smile lines you'd certainly love to be a termite because of their crazy sleep schedule they actually never sleep and the only thing they do is nibble on the wooden pegs they see around them well if you're afraid of gaining weight because of a cellulose rich diet you could probably turn into a snail they get a power nap for some hours and then can run without sleep for as long as 30 hours in a row no fish can survive for any significant period of time without water except this one the african lung fish when they feel something's wrong they start secreting a mucus cocoon and go underground give or take nine inches under the soil they have a built-in tube to breed mountain stone wheaties native to new zealand aren't afraid of drastic temperature changes their blood contains a special protein that doesn't let their blood crystallize in case of extreme temperatures they tolerate any cold better than polar bears and even penguins who live in the officially world's coldest place antarctica ring-tailed lemurs have one of the craziest ways of conflict resolution they have stink fights taking into account the average number of lemurs in a group about 20 or 30 animals you'll see there's a lot of competition their scent glands are on their wrists and shoulders those on the wrists are harmless the odor they produce is quite volatile those on the shoulders are nasty and produce brown funky smelling paste that would outlast any perfume so back off
