    I mean they’re only weird because we’re not used to them, giraffes, narwals and sea-urchins are pretty weird as well.

    Not to mention something like the platypus

      Even snakes are bizarre. We have a creature with no limbs, just a very dangerous head and a potentially very dangerous body, and it uses its skin to move. And they can eat things whole which are several times the size of their head. Seriously, wtf.

      Oh and even better, they range in size from adorable little worms to big enough to eat a human whole. And what kind of exercise do constrictors even do to get strong enough to suffocate something that outweighs it??

        Even weirder is that snakes evolved from critters with legs, and multiple times independently. They were like “legs? We don’t need no stinking legs.”

      Oh, how about those furless apes? I heard their offsprings have to be supervised ALL THE TIME for several years or they might kill themselves by accident. Crazy!
