In order to protect themselves from predators while resting on leaves, these tiny frogs make their skin nearly transparent by packing their red blood cells into their livers. Since nearly 90% of their blood cells are collected in one place, the rest of the body appears virtually invisible.
Scientists that study dolphins believe that their intelligence rivals that of a human, or that they may be even smarter than us. By using a two-way mirror, they can per experiments and study to see how they respond to them.
Have you ever put your pet in front of a large mirror? While animals like cats and dogs generally don’t respond to mirrors at all, dolphins are much more interested and will play in front of the mirror for hours.
Dolphins are also able to recognize that they are looking at themselves rather than seeing another one of their species from the age of around six months old making them an incredible smart species. To prove this is what’s happening, scientists came up with an experiment.
They marked one side of a dolphin with an ‘X’ and didn’t mark another before letting them swim around. The dolphin that was marked swam straight up to the mirror and turned to look and see what had been drawn on it while the other dolphin didn’t show any interest. Other animals have taken the same test and the elephant and primates both are able to p*** this test as well.
It’s important for humans to remember that we are not alone on this planet and that other highly intelligent creatures are dependent on humans treating their environments with care. We must work together to create a world where all creatures are respected.
A lightsaber blade’s color is determined by the crystal it uses to focus the energy, Jedi and Sith alike could and did wield any color blade. The Sith got in the habit of using red after popular Darths Revan and Malax both used red lightsabers; Jedi fell into the habit of exclusively using blue and green when they started using the natural crystals of the planet Ilum to make their blades, where green and blue were the only naturally occurring colors.
No one really gives Ewoks enough credit. An Ewok, a being that just discovered that life exists on other planets accompanies them. He distracts several of the Imperial forces guarding the facility by stealing a speeder bike and leading them on a chase through the forest. That's mind boggling. This little guy woke up in the morning, probably brushed his lustrous coat of fur with a stick or whatever, and then rode a flying death machine through a labyrinth of trees for a cause he barely understood. Ewoks had yet to develop any motorized transport and yet they can pilot vehicles that weren't even designed for their species. It's like a Paleolithic man taking a Snapchat of his cave painting.
