Fun Fact: Most geckos don’t have movable eyelids and instead have one transparent eyelid which they keep clean by licking it with their tongues. Fun Fact: Bull sharks will eat almost anything, but their diet consists mainly of fish. They also sometimes eat dolphins, sea turtles and even eat other sharks. Before it attacks its prey, a bull shark head-butts the animal. This head-butting habit, along with its short, blunt snout and grumpy person- ality, led to its name of "bull" shark. Fun Fact: Fastest mammal on land, the cheetah can reach speeds of 60 or perhaps even 70 miles an hour over short distances. It usually chases its prey at only about half that speed, however. Fun Fact: A beaver family builds a house called a lodge carefully into the water’s edge using branches, mud and dead leaves. Lodges have at least two entrances, including one underwater entrance that allows the beavers to enter the water under winter ice. Fun Fact: No two sets of stripes—or fingerprints—are exactly the same. Zebras may even use stripe patterns to help them recognize different individuals. Fun Fact: The Green Anaconda is the largest snake in the world, when both weight and length are considered. It can reach a length of 30 feet and weigh up to 550 pounds. If about five ten-year-olds lie down head to foot, they'd be about the length of this huge snake.
