DogDogs
There are more than 700 types of pure breed dogs. The common belief that dogs are colour blind is false. Dogs can see colour but it is not as vivid as we see; it is like our vision at twilight. Dogs and cats, like people, are either right-handed or left-handed.

DolphinDolphins are among the most intelligent of animals, as some species have brain-to-body mass ratios equal to that of a human being. Ever since the days of the first seafarers, they have been a subject of art, literature, and myth.

Frogs Frogs come in many shapes and colours all over the world - except Antartica! A frog's long, sticky tongue is attached in the front of its mouth, and, as a signature move, a frog can flick its tongue out to capture its prey with remarkable speed.
