Humans use insect warning chemicals, called pheromones, to keep away pesky
insects!
People who cannot smell have a condition called Anosmia.
If your nose is at its best, you can tell the difference between 4000-10,000
smells!

• Owls can see a mouse moving over 150 feet away with light no brighter than a• candle.
• The reason cat's and dog's eyes glow at night is because of silver mirrors in the• back of their eyes called the tapetum. This makes it easier for them to see at• night.
• An ostrich has eyes that are two inches across. Each eye weighs more than the• brain.
• A chameleon's eyes can look in opposite directions at the same time.
• A newborn baby sees the world upside down because it takes some time for the• baby's brain to learn to turn the picture right-side up.
