Did you know these animal facts?

Hippopotamus sweat is reddish in colour, so it looks like they’re sweating blood.

There are no snakes in Newfoundland, Ireland and New Zealand.

Centipedes and lobsters are cousins.

Horned lizards can squirt blood out of their eyes.

A moose can weigh more than 6 refrigerators.
