Super Powers- Super Animals
Yup, you heard that right! Superpowers!! So sit back, hold tight and let me take you through a whirl of these creatures with the most unusual abilities.
Mongoose Superpower - Venom Immunity
Venom Immunity! Bet you have never heard of that. Usually, in any animal, Messages are sent by the brain to various muscles in the form of electric impulses to function. If venom is introduced into the body, the venom blocks the impulses from traveling to muscles like the heart. The heart stops and the prey dies. But the mongoose has a special structure in its nerves such that even the venom can’t block the flow of impulses making the mongoose a formidable foe to snakes like the Cobra.
Immortal Jellyfish Superpower - immortality (I bet you couldn't figure that out)
All things that are born, must die…..um, not exactly. The immortal jellyfish can live forever(unless eaten by a predator). .The secret to its perpetual life is that it re-lives its entire life cycle after a certain period of time. After it reaches its final stages, its tentacles and outer jelly disintegrate turning it into a polyp(this is the first stage of growth in the immortal Jellyfish). So it keeps on repeating its growth cycle again and again and again.
Hummingbird Superpower - Speed flapping
I know that you have all heard of this creature, but you may not know its abilities. Despite being the smallest bird, it has some features which are second to none. It can flap its wing almost 100 times per second! That is almost 3,60,000 times per hour! Another cool feature is that it can fly backward, forwards, and even upside down. Not just that, unlike other birds, it doesn't flap its wings up and down, it flaps its wings in figure eight.
Wood Frog Superpower - Freezing themselves
The power of this amphibian will keep you dumbstruck. During the winters, the frog cant survive the cold, so the wood frog finds a nice shelter and begins to freeze! It generates a special concoction that prevents the cells from losing a lot of water due to the ice. The body finally goes into a state of stillness. It almost turns into a statue, with all its internal organs coming to a standstill. Its heart stops beating too! After a few months when spring arrives, the frog begins to thaw. Its organs slowly start functioning and after 30 minutes, the frog is back. It's like it comes back from the dead! So I’m pretty sure that this animal can stay a “Statue” longer than any human before its “Released”.
5)Sea Cucumber Superpower - Liquification
I don't know about you but these oversized-looking larvae look downright ugly( I have posted a colorful picture here just so you are not disgusted! ). But believe it or not, people actually eat this thing. As a matter of fact, this animal seems pretty tasty to other underwater predators too. So, what does it do? It turns into a liquid!! .Until now we have heard or seen certain non-living things such as water change state. But a living creature!?! This is MIND BLOWING. So turning into a liquid allows it to seep through cracks, crevices or holes. And voila it's as good as vanishing.
So ya, this is my List of Animals which I found Super amazing! which one did you find the most interesting, leave it in the comment section below.
Until Next time:)
