Strange of the world's smallest animals

It is not so good to be good, many strange and small sized creatures are extremely cute and unique.

The smallest animals in the natural world

1. Wolfi octopus

Thought to be an octopus, it must be so huge that it can be eaten by whales, immersing a ship as in spare movies, but the Wolfi octopus is the smallest in the world. This species was discovered in 1913 after years of searching in the Indian-Pacific waters . An adult that weighs only 1 gram and is about 1.5 cm long means it can stick comfortably on your fingertips.

2. Brookesia Micra Gecko

Brookesia Micra has just been discovered in Madagascar in 2012. They spend most of their time living in the leaves of fallen leaves, making it difficult for research. When the sun goes down, this gecko will climb the sleeping tree trunk - people have found it this way. Keeping a record of 1 of the 4 smallest lizard species , Brookesia Micra is only 29mm long, small enough to stand on the head of a match.

3. Hippocampus seahorses Denise

Living in a depth of 13 - 90 meters in the Western Pacific , Hippocampus Denise was initially confused with seahorses. In fact, the largest one is only 16mm long . In addition to being too small, it is difficult to detect because they often hide in large corals. This difficulty is the only obstacle to determining the number of species to have conservation solutions when the state of marine pollution and fishing is blameless like today.

4. Speckled Spotted Turtle Padloper

Adults are only 11cm long but big enough for a Speckled Padloper to bully fellow types of food. Compared to the overall size of the turtle, the mottled turtle is 16 times smaller than the Galaparos turtle, so it is easy to imagine you can multiply your height by 16 times. The speckled colored apricot works very well in camouflage before every enemy and is too weak, so spotted turtles often hide in rocks. Maintaining the race is also difficult, since each female's body only has room for 1 egg each time. This extends to the situation that they are threatened with extinction before hunting, predators and habitat loss.

5. Sugar Glider flying squirrel

Sugar Glider bagged animals are being bred by many Vietnamese as domestic pets. They are nocturnal squirrels originating from Papua - New Guinea, Indonesia, the east coast of Australia. The mature squirrel has a length of 16 - 20cm and possesses a thin film extending from the middle of the arm to the end of the hind legs, allowing them to fly as far as 60 - 100 meters after a few seconds. New born baby squirrels will automatically squeeze into a small pouch in front of their mothers' breasts and breastfeed until they become stronger. Soc Sugar is easy to tame and close to people. When taking care of them, people often eat sweet foods like the name Sugar, flowers, nectar, pollen, buds, sap, leaves, seeds and insects.

6. Pygmy Marmoset

Dwarf monkeys are the smallest member of a primate family with a child of reproductive age only 12cm long, weighing 170 grams. The pair of twin albino monkeys at Froso Zoo in Ostersund city, Sweden is extremely cute and famous all over the place. In the wild, dwarf monkeys live in the Amazon rainforest , South American countries with small flocks of 5-6 heads including 1 male head and 1 female specializing in reproduction. They communicate in many complex forms including sounds, chemicals released from the gland on the chest, genitals or gesture signals. Currently, dwarf monkeys are seriously threatened with habitat and wildlife trade.

7. Kitti pig nose bat

Craseonycteris thonglongyai pig nose bat is the smallest mammal that humans find, in some places called bee bats. Each bat is only about 30 - 40mm (almost a coin) and weighs 2 grams. The reason they brought the name of the Kitti pig nose because there are quite large ears, reddish-brown fur and upturned nose is very similar to pig's nose. Each bat colony has a number of 10 - 500 animals that go to feed many times a day, mainly insects. They do not use the ability to locate sound waves like other bats. Since the discovery in 1970, the number of bee bats has also decreased significantly and the habitat has been narrowed in some areas of Thailand and around Myanmar.

8. Lemur rats or lemur gray mouse

Madagascar's Lemur mouse with scientific name Microcebus murinus is also in the list of the world's smallest primates with dimensions of 5.5 - 12cm (with a comb). It is rare to see them on trees because they only dare to show their faces foraging at night. Look at the timid appearance, but sometimes the male gray lemurs still mercilessly eat their children even though their favorite food is leaves, fruits and insects.

9. Pink Fairy Armadillo Pangolin

When in danger of an external hard shell having an effective effect, the enemy must give up.

10. Snake worm Leptotyphlops Carlae

It is still not certain that this is the world's smallest snake, but only 10 cm long Leptotyphlops Carlae were discovered in the forest in Barbados . The body of worm-like snake covered with shiny yellow stripes on both sides but not clear. According to experts, snakes are pushed into the same path without food to switch to ant diets, the larvae have evolved to the simplest size today. The discovery of Professor Hedges who was heavily criticized by the Barbados people when he named the animal too familiar to them by his wife's name. However, scientifically, he was the first to discover and name this animal.
