Why are dogs’ noses wet?

While the noses of many dogs are wet, plenty have dry ones. What keeps a dog’s snout moist? No one knows for sure. One theory says that the wetness comes from mucus produced inside the nose. Another hypothesis suggests that because dogs lick their nose all the time, saliva keeps the noise moist. Despite popular belief, a warm nose doesn’t mean a dog is sick.

Why do dogs turn around before lying down?

Around, and around, and around again! Dogs will often circle the bed two or three times before curling up and going to sleep. Are they checking for bed bugs? Not necessarily. Many times dogs are just flattening out their beds to get comfortable. Actually, this behaviour is a genetic trait left over from when the dog’s ancestors used to dig their own shelters. After digging, the dogs would feel comfortable in their “dens” and plop down for much needed shut-eye.

Sky Whale

Check out the Sky Whale, a three story tall aircraft with room for 755 passengers. !

This concept aircraft is powered by four hybrid engines that are recharged with solar panels. It would be constructed from next-generation materials that are light, durable, shaped to be more aerodynamic than some of today’s leading air transports.
