Would you believe that there is an animal on earth, even now, that is 165 feet long? That some crabs can live to be 100 years old? That a green sea turtle might reach a weight of almost 900 pounds? That it takes 100,000 cochineal beetles to produce a single kilogram of dye typically used for lipstick coloring (and, in days long past, for the red coats of British soldiers attempting to put down the American Revolution)? That a resinous mixture produced by honey bees gives the Stradivarius violin its unique color? That llamas make excellent livestock guards? That caribous migrate over more than 3,000 miles a year? That jellyfish (which are no fish at all) have been around for possibly 700 million years and are the oldest multi-organ animal? That some silkworms can spin bullet-proof silk or might soon become space food for long missions by astronauts?

This and many other stories appear in Remarkable Animals, which is Book 4 of my series SURFING A MAGICAL INTERNET.
