The fishes that can survive without water for a good amount of time are known as amphibious fishes. Convergent evolution plays an important role in these species, as the next generation species receives analogous structures that have similar function but were not present in the last generation.Many fishes are amphibious, which means they can naturally survive out of the water. These fishes have developed limbs or use lateral undulation (that is, wave-like movement patterns that act to propel an animal forward) for terrestrial locomotion. They leave water bodies for many reasons like escaping predators, low oxygen environments etc.Ancient fish had ... Read More

At least for now.Even we have idioms reflecting the same e.g. ‘Memory like an elephant.’So, which is that animal who has taken them over? Bottlenose dolphins are the ones that remember things better than these large fellows. A study done by Jason Bruck, an animal behaviourist has revealed.

Breviceps Macrops is known as the desert rain frog. This species belongs to the “Brevicipitidae” family, found only in Namibia and South Africa.

The answer is NO. The range of frequencies that humans and animals can hear is quite restricted, up to a maximum of 100–200 KHz. Wi-Fi uses up to 2.4 GHz (2,400,000 KHz) so it would not be possible for any creature to hear or detect Wi-Fi signal.

There are many interesting facts about snails. They are both aquatic and terrestrial. They belong to Gastropoda family and they adapt to seas or freshwater bodies and can also live exclusively on land in humid areas.A great feature of snails is they continuously evolve to survive the conditions around them.The Snail shell, which is their characteristic feature is made of calcium carbonate which keeps growing as long as the snail grows. The shells grow to fit the entire snail body inside. This helps to protect their soft body and internal organs.The biological features of snails are equally fascinating. Most of ... Read More
