Of course, I didn't know the factoid. It's not quite so cool when you make it all known like that.

An elephant can crush every parasite on its skin with one squeeze.
In recent times elephants rip the tusks out of dead elephants and smash them something which they never did in the past.
A dog's sense of smell is 1 million times stronger when it's hungry than when it's full.
Polar bear fur isn't white it's transparent it captures light in such a way that it appears white.

Elephants are the only other animal that recognises and mourns over their dead.

lol! - anything that is white does that. it doesnt 'capture light', quite the contrary, it reflects all frequency bands. (sorry, I'm a painter too) if it absorbed them all it'd be black... hence black objects heat up faster than white ones (remember those light bulbs with a black/white propellor blade in it that spins when it is placed in sunlight ?? - it spinds cos one blade is repelling the light/heat and one is absorbing... so it spins)
