Scallops have up to 100 eyes- and they are often blue! Believe it or not! Dogs are not colorblind! They can see in color, just not as vividly as humans! Motorcycle stuntman Evel Knievel fractured 433 bones by the end of 1975.
When these so called experts tell you that some animals are color blind, ask them then why do they come in such colorfull arrays to attract their mates?
Um…….fracturing 433 bones is impossible. Humans only have 206. The appropriate way to phrase this would be “Evel Knievel suffered 433 bone fractures by the end of 1975" as I am sure that with all his stunts he was constantly getting fractures. But obviously, some of those bones had to have been fractured more than once. I am bookworm….and I am the Grammar Police!
