FUN FACTS

* The ant, when intoxicated, will always fall over to its right side. *

* Ants make up 1/10 of the total world animal tissue. The total biomass of all the ants on Earth is about totally equal to the total biomass of all the people. *

* Certain frogs can be frozen solid, then thawed, and survive. *

* If NASA sent birds into space they would soon die; they need gravity to swallow. *

* Many hamsters only blink one eye at a time. *

* The abdomen of the ant contains two stomachs. One stomach holds the food for itself and second stomach is for food to be shared with other ants. *

* An ant brain has about 250 000 brain cells. A human brain has 10,000 million so a colony of 40,000 ants has collectively the same size brain as a human. *
