Your Zoology Lesson for the Day

I always thought one of the things that made human superior from all other other creatures (besides primates) is the fact that we have opposable thumbs (I mean which other finger would we hit the space bar with?). Well, that is WRONG. Several animals have opposable thumbs - including koalas. But guess what... they get TWO ON EACH HAND! Luckies.. they get to do double thumbs up and they probably rock it in a thumb war.









































Other animals with opposable thumbs, in case you are curious:
-Giant Pandas
-Some species of African rodent
-Some possum species
-A few dinos
-A frog native to South America









Doh!
