Real-life is frequently bizarre than fiction, so we're frankly not certain why people resort to these myths. To celebrate March 3rd (World Wildlife Day), here is some widely-clenched but easily disagreeable theories about animals you can quite acknowledging today.
Myth 1: Bulls Dislike Red
Cattle are partly color-blind, not only do bulls not dislike red, but they can hardly even see it and the color red does not fall in their range. You have likely seen pictures of bullfighters enticing their prey with red flags, but it's believed to be the clatter of the crowd, the spears of the comic, and the antagonistic actions of the matador that infuriate the animals, not the specific color of the fabric.
Myth 2: Lemmings Engages in Mass Suicide
There is a grain of truth to this. During their time frequent mass migrations, few numbers of lemmings will eventually tumble into holes or lakes from which they manage not to come out.
The more famous picture of entire herds tossing themselves off cliffs is arrant non-sense, and likely the mistake of White Wilderness, from 1958, a Disney documentary.The film team intentionally knocked some lemmings off a cliff-top, securing their kamikaze prestige in the process.
Myth 3: Birds Are Not Intelligent
Bird-brained is a reflective misnomer, as external primates and dolphins, birds, tag along with the creative species anywhere in the world.
Parrots are popular for their speaking and problem-solving capabilities, crows are one of just several animals to have mastery use of tools, and chicken can measure, show self-awareness, comprehend abstract notions that even young people battle with. Bird brains are sizably little, but they carry more neurons per ounce for ounce than the brains of almost every mammal.

Myth 4: Owls Can Turn Their Heads 360 Degrees
Owls possess incredibly mobile necks, but they do however have necks, they can nearly close full circle, reaching out with three-quarters of both directions which is 270 degrees. Since the technicians of the strategy are concealed by a large layer of feathers, the outcome still looks a lot like the exorcist.
Myth 5: Camels Keep Water in their Humps
Practically they do, of course, though no more than the other parts of their bodies. Far from the anatomical puddle described in a lot of juniors books, a camel's hump contain nearly a whole fat reserves, which the camel will go back on when food is insufficient.
Myth 6: Vultures Orbit on Dying Animals
Something is interesting sinister about a frightening bird orbiting on a dead person or animal, but no, vultures don't have some kind of special ability that speaks to them when something is dying. Vultures feed on the already deceased, which they perceive with an amazing sense of smell - perceiving the sulfurous solvents in even the initial stages of decay
They have absolutely no way of knowing that something is dying before it is deceased, and even if they could. They would not squander time waiting for prey to cop it when there's so much food somewhere else.
