The animal kingdom is huge and unless you're my colleague, Justė, who's like a walking encyclopedia (seriously, the woman knows everything, point to a random bug on the ground and she'll tell you all about its ancestors a million years ago), it's impossible to know everything about it. So, to broaden your understanding of the beings we share Earth with, UK TV channel Dave launched an online campaign titled What the bloody hell is a ... ?

During it, the channel shared pictures of various wild animals along with some of their defining characteristics. And yes, the descriptions and the facts about animals aren't completely legit. Well, actually, they're almost pure fiction. But they're so ridiculous, they're kinda genius. Continue scrolling down to the animal trivia and you'll understand what I mean.

    Fun fact: In Dutch, the word for squirrel (eekhoorn) differs only 1 letter from the word for unicorn (eenhoorn). Therefore, squirrels are 95% as magical als unicorns. People have occasionally spotted rainbow farts coming from squirrels.

    God save the queens, she's our only hope. I mean, we can't use tea, it'd be against our nature, not proper at all!

    What is the exact number of eels that you can tie in a knot and stay in the aquarium? Asking for a friend with tickets to the aquarium this weekend.

    The oldest dolphin ever died. I can't wrap my head around what this means.
