Narcoleptic Sheep & Other Oddball Animals

FAINTING GOATS

ANGLER FISH

As if the appearance of this fish were not entertaining enough, there’s more: The male angler fish are only the size of the female’s fin, and they ride around on their lady-fish’s back like a parasite until they basically dissolve, leaving behind their sperm.

THE KIWI BIRD

New Zealand’s rare kiwi bird can’t even fly!

LONG-EARED JERBOA

THUMBELINA - THE WORLD'S SMALLEST HORSE

SHREK THE SHEEP

This domestic sheep somehow avoided the sheers for 10 years. When this story hit the news, I couldn’t stop watching the video clip of Shrek moping around under 70 lbs. of hair all set to a humdrum oboe solo. Sadly, the clip is nowhere to be found.

ROCKFISH

A very venemous and treacherous rock lookalike!

Sue The Dinosaur

The most complete T Rex skeleton in the entire world. 90% of the original skeleton is intact millions of years later. Okay, so maybe it’s not a LIVING animal – but dinosaurs are still awesome.

4-Horned Goats

I completely thought this was a product of Photoshop until I recently saw a pack of these odd creatures on a road trip a few months ago. Still, I wonder what purpose those bottom horns might serve. Fancy toothpicks?

DUGONG

Looks like a cross between a manatee and a giant boulder. Wouldn’t you just love to ride around on one?

SOFT-SHELLED TURTLE

I’m sorry, but it’s not really much of a shock to hear that these animals are endangered. I’m no scientist, but these guys don’t look like they’d be at the top of the food-chain.

ANGORA RABBIT

You thought it was bad that she has a maltese…

"Barreleye," The Clear-Headed Fish

First described in 1939, this “barreleye” has been somewhat of a mystery to science. But researchers from the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute were recently able to catch one of the deep-sea creatures and study it in a shipboard aquarium. They’ve learned that the fish can actually rotate its eyes upward to peer through its transparent, liquid-filled head.

My only question: I wonder what they taste like?

Whatever the HELL this is???

I’m sorry, but I don’t know if this makes me believe in GOD or the Devil?? What the HELL is this?
