Monstrous animals: breathing with anus,

Some animals on Earth have very special abilities. It is possible to breathe with anus, "deflated" to swim or use feces to defend, build "castle" .

These abilities not only help living creatures but also surprise us, admiring the miracle of nature and evolution.

1. Respiratory by anal

Fitzroy turtles are endemic turtles that live only in southeast Queensland, Australia. This turtle is not only famous throughout the world for its rarity but also by its unique way of breathing - anal.

Although there is a perfect mouth located directly in the center of the face like most individuals of the turtle set, Fitzroy has grown to breathe air through its inner and outer anus.

Observations by the scientists showed that the buttock of this turtle has a special bag called a bursa, with two large cysts that help them take oxygen in the water to extend the time they dive underwater.

When diving under water, Fitzroy turtles constantly pump water into the anus and increase breathing. Therefore, their respiratory efficiency is much higher than other turtles.

It is estimated that the amount of oxygen collected through the anus accounts for more than 70% of the oxygen that Fitzroy turtles load into the body, many times the amount of air that they take in by mouth.

2. Self-defense with stool

For a newborn caterpillar, to be able to survive is a tremendous challenge. Most caterpillars choose to secretly wrap themselves in leaves, but sometimes they are still being hunted and eaten by hornets or other animals.

Therefore in insects, the number of individuals that live through the deep stage to make cocoons only accounts for a very small proportion.

However, the caterpillars of the skipper species have found a special solution to fight bees or other predators. It is to use your own man to attack the elite predators.

Every time the skipper feels a threat coming, he raises his butt like a gun and splits it towards the enemy.

They do this thanks to the increase in blood pressure under the anus, creating a repulsive force. Estimates, the distance of this dung shot is 40 times longer than the depth of the skipper body and is enough to stun the enemy.

3. Use beach creation

Parrot fish is a silly, stupid silly creature but hidden inside the extraordinary ability to create extraordinary. They used their own manure to build on the most beautiful white sand beaches in the world.

The cause of this unique ability is because parrot fish love to eat coral blocks. Once it finds a reef, they will eat and chew. However, there is a large amount of limestone from coral that parrot fish cannot digest.

All of this limestone will pass through the digestive tract and be excreted in the form of special pellets. The pellets are white and easily crushed into tiny grains, then transported to the bays by the waves and deposited into beautiful sandy beaches.

Common parrot fish can produce more than 200kg of sand / year. Many famous tropical beaches today are made up of their droppings.

Therefore, the rapid decline in the number of parrot fishes is negatively affecting the development of tropical beaches.

4. "Farting" to swim

Have you ever wondered what mechanism helps the manatees to move gently in water with such a giant body. The answer will surprise many people - manatees control their movements by constantly farting.

The complex gut structure of manatees can hold steam. When you want to sink deep, just increase the air in your intestine, when you want to float, put air through the anus, creating a pressure to push your body up.

The manatee's food is hydrilla and onion water - this is a food that produces a lot of methane, which is very helpful for "deflating".

5. Build castles from antibiotic fertilizers

In nature, termites are considered the most talented architects. They are capable of creating large towers from soil, mud, wood items and even from manure with height up to 7.5m, diameter of 12m and weighing up to hundreds of tons.

Under those giant towers are a large kingdom in the earth with a complex scale. It is a multitude of tunnels that serve as a conduit for air conditioning, temperature - an idea that people will pay attention to later in their building.

In addition, termites also know symbiosis with Streptomyces bacteria in the digestive system. These bacteria provide an antibiotic source in the feces of the termites. They will use this stool to build their nest and be completely assured of the "castle" immune to many dangerous diseases. Therefore, termites are extremely sustainable and safe - can withstand the worst impacts from the environment.
