      Butterflies cannot fly if their body temperature is less than 86 degrees.

      Neurons multiply at a rate 250,000 neurons per minute during early pregnancy.

      Elephants have the longest pregnancy in the animal kingdom at 22 months. The longest human pregnancy on record is 17 months, 11 days.

      A female oyster produces 100 million young in her lifetime, the typical hen lays 19 dozen eggs a year, and it is possible for one female cat to be responsible for the birth of 20,736 kittens in four years. Michelle Druggar holds the record for largest human family, having given birth to 17 children.

      750ml of blood pumps through your brain every minute which is 15-20% of blood flow from the heart.

      The human brain is about 75% water.

      Dragonflies are capable of flying sixty miles per hour, making them one of the fastest insects. This is good since they are in a big hurry, as they only live about twenty-four hours.

      Flies jump backwards during takeoff.

      A housefly will regurgitate its food and eat it again.

      Termites outweigh humans by almost ten to one.

      A spider's web is not a home, but rather a trap for its food. They are as individual as snowflakes, with no two ever being the same. Some tropical spiders have built webs over eighteen feet across.

      More people are afraid of spiders than death. Amazingly, few people are afraid of Champagne corks even though you are more likely to be killed by one than by a spider.
