Fabulously Fun Funky Facts!
Hello! Here are just a few facts I picked up from all over the place.........
Bat hair has been used as money, a volcanic eruption in 1883 made the sun look green, The first computer was as long as a tennis court! The legs on a newborn foal are already 90 percent of the length they'll be when they are fully grown. It takes 3 liters of freshwater to make one liter of bottled water, horses and humans are the ONLY animals that can sweat all over their bodies, and last of all, there was a python called Fluffy ( ha ha!) who was 7.3 meters long, that's about 3 meters longer than many average pythons!

The Elephant mouse
The Elephant mouse (Squadphantmousus) is apart of the rodent family, and, despite it's name, is not related to the Elephants at all.
It is 11cm long from it's nose to it's tail, and it has a nose that wrinkles up when sniffing. It also has a rather short tail with a little tuft of fur at the end; it has large eyes and it's ears are small, while it's back legs are three times as long as it's front legs.
It is a light grey colour and lives in Australia in the rain forests. It makes it's home in small burrows or holes and sleeps in little nests it makes out of dried leaves. Some times it evan makes it's home under the roots of trees!
It's diet consists mainly of seeds, nuts, and insects. Pretty much anything it can get it's mouth around!
It's predators are dingos, hawks, snakes, and sometimes native cats.
The Elephant mouse breeds up to six times a year, and in one litter it can have up to fifteen babies!
They are only just managing to stay of the endangered list because of how many and how often they have babies.
