animals

When I was about five I asked my dad what the hole in the middle of a guitar was for. He told me that it was where mice lived. I believed this until I was about ten, I think.

I used to believe that dogs were male and cats were female.I only realised wen my aunt got a dog named Sophie,lol.I still think now though that the majority of dogs luk like men :p

I had heard sometime around 2nd grade, that some animals, such as foxes, chew off their own feet when cought in traps. Having had a pet lizard at one point, I knew that some animals could regrow appendages. I would argue with my father to no end saying that FOXES COULD REGROW THEIR FEET.

When I was little I used to believe that monkeys could talk(when I was 5)!!

There has long been an urban myth that it is against the law to kill a praying mantis. This probably comes from the fact that they kill pest insects and are considered benificial.

When I was kid, my best (?) friend placed a praying mantis under a large clam shell with out me knowing it. Then bet me I could not break the shell with the heel of my shoe. After seeing the smashed shell with bug guts underneath, my friend spent the next week telling every grown up he met I had killed a mantis - hoping someone would call the police.

When i was 5 & 6 years old i kept close watch on the bird seeds we planted each summer during Vacation Bible School for the birds that were sure to be produced. I firmly believed that "bird seeds" would produce birds in the same way that watermelon seeds produced watermelon.

My mom always told me that if i was bad, seagulls will come and bite my shoulders. (we were always sailing where there are lots of seagulls) To this day, im still a little afraid of them.

i used to believe that drangonfly's would sew your mouth shut

I used to think the dogs were the boys and the cats were the girls.

I used 2 belive that boy horses had hairy feet and girls diddn't,thats all thanks 2 my little pony's because the one's with the fluffy feet were allways bigger. The funny thing is I only realised it was'nt true about 3 months ago!!!

When I was little and rabies was just becoming news in our area my mom was talking to someone and said "Rabies is coming" or something like that.

In my 5 or 6 year old imagination that meant that all of the animals that had ever gotten rabies would come through our town like zomies with foaming mouths and red hypnotic-like eyes.

:p

When I was younder, I was convinced that all dogs were boys and all cats were girls.

i used to believe that dragonflies would sew your mouth shut.

my mum told me the udders on cows were the cows 'boobies'. so everytime we saw cows i used 2 point and yell out 'LOOK MUM BOOBIES!!!'

When I was little I believed that bears lived underground directly below the barricades that block the street when they are being repaired. I figured out later that I had believed that because my mother had said barricades and heard bear caves.

When I was really young (I don't know exactly how old), I asked my mom why love bugs were stuck together. She told me it was because one was the mom and the other was the baby. It seemed completely logical because one of the bugs was always bigger than the other. Well, I did not learn the truth until I was in ninth grade when it came up in our lunch conversation. Everyone laughed at me when I started talking about the mother and the baby love bugs. I was I was so embarrassed and pretty mad at my mom.
