Polar Bears are the only Bear who will actively hunt a human being. Mother bears of any kind will kill a human if they get near their cubs, but they wont eat them.

An octopus's three hearts have slightly different roles. One heart circulates blood around the body, while the other two pump it past the gills, to pick up oxygen.

Caterpillars ( and maggots ) are amazing

They start of as little critters then change into a chrysalis then it’s own cells dissolve the body into a fluid and then the fluid cells reorganise themselves into a completely different critter … butterfly !!

If "The Simpsons" aged normally, Bart would now be older than Marge was in the first season.

Soooo the ABBA guys were listening to Rock You Baby by George McCrae on the radio then sat down and immediately wrote Dancing Queen ….



Also the strange start of the song came about because the song was simply too long so they decided to snip off the intro !!!
