animals

I used to believe that horse's penis is so big 24/7, not only while in erection, so every time I saw horse without long member hanging under belly, I was convinced it was mare!

I used to believe since we had dogs and cats, and lions and tigers, that lions were big dogs and tigers were big cats.

When I was really little, my mom told me that Daddy Long Leg spiders couldnt make their own webs, and that they eat dust. I believed this until one day i saw one spinning a web. I now know that they can spin webs, they eat small insects, and are venomous. (but they cant puncture human flesh because their fangs are too small).

When I was little I thought dogs and cats were the same species, just that dogs were boys and cats were girls. I believed this until I was 7 or so.

One day that I was out walking with my dad, I was like 5 or 6, we saw a dog, it was a Dalmatian and I thought how cool that dog has black spots all over his body, and my daddy told me that when Dalmatians are born they are completely white and the Dalmatian painter put the black spots on them but they couldnt be in the rain or the spots will go away

I used to believe that butterflies were born when a fly mated with butter. I had no idea how this would happen. I suppose the fly sat on the butter.I was a strange kid...

I used to believe…

That Rabbit shed their tail when the seasons changed.

Growing up, I was never allowed to have an inside pet.. But my stepdad was an avid hunter and we had lots of mounted heads and taxidermied animals in our house.. I believed they were my pets.. I would name them and pet them and talk to them all the time.. Let this be a lesson to all parents... Get your kid a pet..

i always thought that all animals could talk and wear clothes.i also thought that pictures watch us and that when there's bubbles coming from the waterjug,that there was a monster drinking water

My mum told me as a little kid that all feathers had bird lice on them so you couldn't pick them up. This was because I would always come home with collections of objects in my pockets. When I was 19 this had still never been contradicted and I told my then boyfriend (now husband) to quickly drop a feather in great panic!!!! How embarrasing.

I used to think that bees and wasps only stung people on the ears.

A friend of a friend firmly believes that 'walrus' rhymes with 'cactus,' and since a cactus lives in a desert, a walrus must also live in the desert. She also believes Japan is the capital of Russia. She's in her 20's.

I used to believe…

THAT THE EGG CAME FIRST THEN THE CHICKEN !!!!!!

Ever since I was four, I would go into the woods around my house to look for unicorns every so often. No luck, of course. I carried the tradition over to our new house when we moved here when I was seven. I'm 12 now and I still think that I saw a flash of white and a glint of gold when taking a walk in the forest when I was 10...

My older sister convinced me that snails were the slyest creatures around, although they crawled really slow as soon as someone walked by they would jump up on the leg and stick there. I still have difficulty casually walking past a snail.

I used to believe that sheep were called b*st*rds, cos that's all I ever heard my mum and stepdad call them. So I'd be out with people and say "wow, look at all them b*st*rds over there!"
