Welcome to Weird facts Wednesday. I’m going to share five random weird facts, it might become a new weekly feature. If you choose to continue reading you will learn something new and useless unless it shows up in a trivia related game/show.
* Children have more taste buds than adults.
This explains so much with picky eaters. I had no idea, my son will say that something tastes spicy to him and I won’t notice it. He also seems very sensitive to flavors especially if they are sweeter or more sour than normal
* Shark pregnancies last up to 4 years.
Holy crap! I know during my pregnancy it felt like I’d been pregnant for a year by the end of it haha. I can’t even imagine being pregnant for that kind of length.
* Shrimp can only swim backwards.
I got nothing on this…the only thing I wonder is if they would be bigger if they could swim both directions.
* The only lizard that has a voice is the Gecko.
Geico already knew this, how do you think they came up with their mascot?
* Fish can drown
I feel like this is impossible. Or just incredible bad luck for a fish. They have gills to breath underwater but can still drown?
