The dynamite tree (Hura crepitans) is among the largest trees of tropical America and is interesting for its pumpkin-shaped seed capsules that explode with a loud report, scattering the seeds. Sandbox trees are sometimes grown as boulevard trees but have disadvantages in their poisonous leaves, bark, & seeds and the explosions of their capsules, which have force enough to injure persons or livestock

Did you know that the #octopus is considered to be the most intelligent of all invertebrates? They have been known to recognize faces, complete mazes, use tools, open jars and so much more!
They also sport three hearts, and blue blood, and have been around since well before the dinosaurs.

not many animals have a white sclera.
one idea is the "cooperative eye hypothesis" says that for hunting animals that needs silent communication, a white sclera is an advantage. i can follow your gaze.
this is one theory about why dogs have a white sclera. to hunt with us. it also makes them seem more adorable.

Fun Fact: Pufferfish release a toxin when they puff out that is meant to impair the attacker, so they can safely escape. Ironically, this doesn’t work on dolphins in the same way. it gets them high. So, they purposely inflate them and pass them around to their dolphin friends for fun.

leafy seadragons. they are gorgeous, royal, gentle. to say they move sedately is a massive understatement. it's a slow, underwater ballet.
i learned about them from William Buelow Gould – which has a fascinating story himself https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Buelow_Gould

the thorny devil in Australia is an example of convergent evolution – it evolved the same properties and abilities as the horned lizard.
the coolest thing is that it drinks with the help of the capillary effect: it stands in a a damp place, and moisture is transported up it's body, under the armour, and into it's mouth.
love that guy.
