    One fact you missed about bats, not all eat bugs, fruit bats are pollinators of the fruits that they eat. And in some areas of the world those said fruits would not exist if the bats were not there to pollinate. They are as important as bees.

    Fact 11 - Animals can and do laugh, certainly. My cousin has a little Brown Headed Parrot named Nova; Nova laughs and chuckles, and not just to get attention. She has a sense of human and understands English so well that she will laugh at jokes and funny stories exactly when we might light, but often BEFORE we can bust up. She will laught at funny points even if we're talking in another room, so she is not taking visual cues from our expressions to know to make this sound we lie and praise her for.
    She laughs by herself too, as in I can be telling a story and my cousin jusy shakes her head and smiles, but Nova will sometimes laugh aloud as if very amused. She chuckles sarcastially too, such as when the other parrot or the dog is being teased or scolded but she's not. It's hilarious and just a little amazingly weird.
    Speaking of the dog, he also smiles at humor. He'll be laying on the floor with his head down, then lift it and watch us when we're saying funny things, and he starts to smile until he's grinning in mirth.
    By the by, neither of my cousins parrots talk. They CAN, we've heard words from them now and then [Dee once said hello when she had been pet-sat for a weekend and mom came home, spoken as if she was timing and scared to believe mom was back] but they will not talk. They communicate non-verbally and with bird sounds and talk, but will not speak. Yet, Nova laughs, and understands humor. She's a fascinating little bird!

    Really interesting video. Bats, those things no matter how small or big or wherever I have lived, it does not matter how still or silent I am, they chase me. I believe they are a lot smarter than even scientists believe. One kept going under my car when I got home from shopping. Every time I tried to get get and go for the house door, it would chase me. Finally, I barely outran the little Bat. I just closed the screen door and it hit the screen. It got up right away and shook itself. Then flew to a tree just outside the dining room window. All day and evening. Did not get dark until 11 pm, that night and when a car drove past, the headlights were bright enough to still see it. Another small City, I had my window down in my Bronco 2, with my 1st, cousin as we drove to the video store. The largest bat I ever seen tried to get in the window. My other cousin who owns the video/convenience store came out with a net to try and catch it as it was believe there was a larger than normal bat in the area giving animals rabies. He didn't catch it though. We got the things we wanted for our ladies movie night, drove home, just closed the house door and we believe it was the same big Bat that had tried to get into the Bronco. Stuff like that with Bats happen to me all the time. I still think they are cute though. Thanks for the video.

    Badgers and Coyotes have been seen hunting together. When coyotes and badgers team up, the pairs track small, burrowing animals such as prairie dogs and ground squirrels. If the prey is above ground, the coyote usually chases it down, and the badger takes over the hunt if the prey descends underground.

    Saltwater Crocodiles have the most powerful recorded bite force on the planet, clocking in at a terrifying 3,700 psi. Their jaw works in a way that is both to their benefit and detriment, while they can slam their jaws shut with devastating force, this same power doesn't apply to opening them, that is why it's so easy to hold their mouths shut compared to prying them open.
    This powerful jaw strength is why any Australian will advise you to never go where these massive beasts reside alone, since if you're grabbed by one and have nobody to help you, you're good as dead. Crocodiles are also a larger threat than Alligators are, in part due to their heightened aggression, but the main reason is the stark difference in bite strength.
