Flamingo's eat with their heads upside down.
Polar bears have black skin
White-tailed jackrabbits have been recorded leaping 21' in the air (vertically)
A group of parrots is know as a pandemonium
The loudest critter on earth....The Pistol Shrimp (2cm long) is capable of snapping it's claw shut so rapidly, that it creates a bubble which collapses to produce a sonic blast, louder than a sonic boom.
And last, but not least...The loudest animal relative to size is the Water Boatman, 12mm long, and can produce 99dB of sound by rubbing its genitalia across its abdomen (sounds like something a certain Florida boatman would do...if only he could)
