• A whales penis is called a dork.

• A humpback whales milk is 54% fat.

• If the eggs spawned by all the female cod in one season survived, they would fill the oceans from seabed to surface. Cod lay between four and 5 million eggs at a time – but usually only about five survive.

• Crocodiles cannot stick their tongues out.

• Most elephants weigh less than the tongue of the blue whale.

• Neither horses nor rabbits can vomit.
