22Puffins
Puffins are one of the few seabirds that can hold 10 to 12 small fish during one foraging trip. This allows them to bring more food for their young compared while most seabirds tend to swallow and regurgitate meals for their chicks.

The Slow Loris is the only mammal that has both a toxic bite and is poisonous. They are nocturnal, and, when threatened, they freeze and remain motionless.
24Jaguar
The jaws of a jaguar are stronger than any other species of cat. With these strong jaws, they will crunch down on bones and eat them. Their jaws are strong enough to crack a sea turtle's shell. In fact, in the zoo, bones are part of a jaguars' regular diet.
25Parrotfish
Parrotfish spend their days chomping down on coral. After they digest the coral, they poop out sand. Turns out, the majority of sand grains found on white-sand beaches, such as those found in Hawaii, are actually parrotfish poop.
26Hooded Pitohui
The Hooded Pitohui is the first scientifically documented poisonous bird. Its feathers give off a neurotoxin called homobatrachotoxin which has previously only been found in the skin of poison dart frogs, and handling them can cause numbness.
27Cats
Cats travel by placing their hind paws in the print left by their front. This both quiets their steps and ensures solid footing for their powerful back legs.
