HAKUNA MATATA!

Dolphins never fully shut off their brains
Not even when they go to bed
And panthers are just the dusky brothers
Of the jaguars and the leopards

The mighty elephant can’t jump at all
Sea sponges have no organs or brains
And when danger is near, the timid deer
Will flash the white undersides of their tails

Cats talk to each other in a secret language
They meow only to their humans
The octopus has three separate hearts 
Sloths digest only one leaf in a month 

Most penguins live in warm climates 
Polar bears have beautiful black skin
Bats are the only mammals that fly
Cows can have best friends 

Hummingbirds can fly backwards
Kangaroos can’t walk back if they tried
Flamingoes are pink, because they eat algae and shrimp
No two tigers have the same stripes 

Giraffes love to stick out their blue-purple tongues
Crocs can’t stick theirs out if they tried 
Slugs have four noses, dogs sweat through their paws-es
Only lady mosquitoes bite 

Horses and cows sleep standing up
And sharks don’t have any bones
Fun facts that shock and awe and amaze
The animal world is a fabulous one.
