These by-products include pig suede, buttons, glass, paint brushes, crayons, chalk and insulation to name a few. » The poison arrow frog has enough poison to kill about 2,200 people. » A kangaroo can jump up to 10 feet (3 m) high and leap up to 26 feet (8 m). » The Queen termite can live up to 50 years and have 30,000 children every day. » The cockroach's favorite food is the glue on the back of stamps. » Tuna swim at a steady rate of 9 miles (14 km) per hour until they die and they never stop moving.

They will eat your house twice as fast if you play loud music. » Rabbits digest their food twice (if you know what I mean) for two reasons: they don't get all the nutrients the first time around and because they need a high bacterial count in their stomach, which they get from, that's right, poop. » The name "Kangaroo" came about when some of the first white settlers saw this strange animal hopping along and they asked the Aborigines what it was called. They replied with "Kanguru", which in their language means "I don't know".</blockquote>
