Orcas typically live in a complex matriarchal society, and are extremely social. The oldest female is the head honcho of the family.

Multiple subspecies of orca all have their own dialect of communication, and can live up to 75-80+ years.

Oh, and great white sharks are terrified of them.

Ducks are rapists with corkscrew penises

My first job was the summer between 10th and 11th grade and I worked at the local parks and rec cutting grass and painting. One of our spots was a local park with a lake where ducks and geese would congregate. The first time I saw a duck dick it kinda shocked me. I thought for a second there was something wrong with it, or that he was eat up with worms and they had burrowed through his insides.

Kangaroos

When dogs go harassing kangaroos the roos will hop into the nearest body of water. They are trying to lure the dogs into the water. It's a trap. If the dog follows the kangaroo into the water the kangaroo will then drown it.

Also, a mature male kangaroo would happily duke it out with any human! LOL

Yep, UGA did a study a few years back where they tracked a bunch of domesticated cats and they found the following statistics regarding cat’s hunting practices:
30% is eaten
21% is brought home for presents
49% is killed for the hell of it and left to rot

All feral house cats and free-roaming domesticated cats should be shot on sight.

Bluegill fish are a cuckhold species. The males make the nest to attract females, the females squirt out the eggs on it, then swims back out to open water. Then the male sperms all over the eggs. The male guards the nest from that point forward.

The closest living relatives of the pronghorn are Giraffes and Okapi.




Also, Pronghorns are the fastest North American mammals at 60 mph. Faster than any current predator in North America. Suggesting they evolved dodging something that could run that fast at some point.
