Random animal facts: Did you know that porcupine fish are very smart and sociable? They approach divers out of curiosity and like to play games. This is why they are probably one of my favourite fish. It is advised not to touch wild animals, no matter how friendly they are. Otherwise they become more vulnerable to predators. Elf owls are the smallest owl species that we know of currently. Rain frogs are very squishy and have butt cheeks, and they tend to crawl rather than hop. They might also make a tiny high pitched squeaky scream if they get upset so don’t upset them. Seals can sleep both on land and under water. In the water they like to snuggle up in kelp beds.
