    I have learnt that
    1. Dung beetles have an amazing sense of smell .It takes them just 60 seconds to find fresh dung.
    2. Only female mosquitoes suck up blood. They need it to make their eggs. Male mosquitoes feed on nectar instead.
    3. The peacock butterfly has spots on its wings like eyes. This scares its enemies.
    4. There are about 65,000 species of insects with one pair of wings
    5. Flies beat their wings up to 1,000 times a second. That's what makes them buzz!!
