The Ancient Celts used to collect the heads of their defeated foes. This was probably done because the head was believed to house the person’s soul. One suggestion is that if you owned the head, the person would be your slave in the afterlife.

Bee stings and wasp stings both feel painful, but they are very different. For a bee, a sting is all or nothing; the bee loses its stinger and injects a relatively large volume of venom — typically about 50 micrograms. A wasp, which retains its stinger, injects from 2 to 15 micrograms — but it can do it many times.

Strangely rich Romans would use public toilets as places to discuss the day's news and to maybe even make a business deal!

Incredibly the biggest brain belongs to the Sperm Whale. It has a brain that is about five times the size of a human brain! However it appears that Sperm Whales have a poor sense of taste and smell.

Did you know that in London during 1666 there were about 80,000 residents? However only 6 people were reported to have died! Their records possibly weren’t very accurate.
