Did you know that hippos attract mates by peeing, elephants only sleep two hours a night, and male bees are locked out of the hive during winter?
I’m a writer and illustrator living in the Netherlands, and I draw sad animal facts. I’ve spent the last three years researching and illustrating sad facts about adorable animals and sharing them online.

Rabbits too. Rabbits can be scared to death just by the sound of a television...
I've seen a video where a rabbit is playing with a balloon and accidentally pops it. The poor thing starts skittering around on the floor.
