80 Animal ‘Facts’ That Will Crack You Up

With millions of animal species inhabiting the earth, it's pretty safe to say that the animal kingdom is pretty intense and strange. Believe it or not, there is just so much you don't know yet about our non-human counterparts. For instance, have you ever heard that prairie dogs greet each other by kissing? Or that scorpions glow under UV light?

While most of us love learning this sort of fact, no one can forbid us from creating alternative stories to the already strange world. Because why not? As long as you don't mess with and harm mother nature, there's no one who can stop you from having a little laugh at its tiny creations and the predicaments they get involved in.

Apparently, that's what people who gather in a subreddit called S**ttyAnimalFacts are doing. People pick the cutest, funniest and most adorable videos and photos of animals and pair them with 'facts' that make the whole ordeal too funny to scroll past by. Although no one in any way is stating that these 'facts' are true, a good laugh is guaranteed. Already intrigued? Scroll below to read them!
