  1. When I was out for a walk with the dogs this morning I saw a shadow in the distance through the trees & had a chuckle because it looked for all the world like the profile of a large kangaroo. I told myself it was too big to be that & was smiling to myself. Then the profile turned its head, stood upright & looked straight at me. It was one of the biggest kangaroos I have ever seen.
    I have Pareidolia & often see faces in all sorts of things & just thought Iโ€™d done it again. Noooo - it was definitely a very big roo & Iโ€™m glad it was quite a distance away from myself & the dogs. ๐Ÿฆ˜ #AussieAnimals #Kangaroo #Pareidolia

  3. Saltwater crocodiles are often spotted lying in the sun, but Australian researchers have discovered itโ€™s just as vital for these reptiles to remain cool.

    So, why do crocodiles need to regulate their body temperature? And what does this teach us about these iconic Aussie predators?

    We asked PhD candidate Kaitlin Barham of The University of Queensland for the facts; this is 60 Seconds of Science. youtu.be/J-1OmXGrq_g
