here are the weirdest things ever found inanimals! 15. a whole lightbulb in terms of animals eating weird stuff, dogscan go toe to toe with any creature on the planet.
how to remove snakes from your yard, especially cody, a young golden retrieverpuppy who swallowed an entire light bulb. this poor doggo had been vomiting for dayswhen his humans decided to take him to the vet. they did some x-rays and were alarmed to findthat the curious puppy had an entire light
bulb in his tummy. thankfully they gave him intravenous fluids,and the pup passed the bulb intact, which is pretty amazing if you think about it. generally speaking, golden retrievers areamong the smartest dogs around. since cody was just a young, naive puppy atthe time of this odd incident, we’ll give him the benefit of the doubt and chalk itup to inexperience. 14. an electric blanket growing up to 18 feet long, burmese pythonsare among the largest snakes in the world.
they’re known to be active predators whostalk and strangle their prey. they’re able to kill large creatures suchdeer, alligators and large birds. however, there’s this case of a python whoobviously didn’t get the smart gene, because it ate an electric blanket. in 2006, this 12-foot long snake needed anemergency surgery to save its life after it ate its security blanket. snakes don’t regulate their own body temperaturesvery well, so its owner was nice enough to give him one. apparently the blanket got tangled up withthe rabbit its owner was serving it for dinner.
the blanket stretched out along 8 feet ofthe reptile’s digestive track, so veterinary workers managed to cut an in 18 inch incisionto remove the obstruction. thankfully, the snake, whose name ironicallyis houdini, was able to survive. 13. car tires before we dive too deep into this, let’sjust say that this won’t be the only shark on this list. as it turns out, there’s very little sharkswon’t eat...including tires. in fact, tires have been found inside tigersharks on more than one occasion.
known for their robust appetite, tiger sharkswill eat anything unlucky enough to float in their direction. even when they aren’t hungry, marine biologistshave noted that they eat out of boredom, not too dissimilar to certain people good thingthey don’t eat rubber tires when they’re bored. 12. an entire deer here is a little cooking tip for you. deer meat is really tasty.
anything you can do with beef, you can dowith venison. plus it’s leaner and healthier. apparently the word is out because an alligatorin alabama somehow managed to eat an entire doe. in august 2014, an alabama woman and her familymanaged to catch the largest alligator ever recorded in the state. weighing in at more than 1,000 pounds andmeasuring around 15 feet, this massive gator was able to swallow a small doe whole. a taxidermist also noticed that the gatorhad the remains of a few other small animals
inside of it as well. experts seem pretty puzzled to exactly howthis happened, as it’s the first time anything like this has happened. 11. rubber duckies ducks are a delicacy in many cultures. rubber ducks, though a staple in bathtubseverywhere, not so much. unless you’re a dog named woof, then they’reyour favorite bedtime snacks. quick backstory.
a florida woman had a small child who lovedrubber duckies. unfortunately, they mysteriously went missingfairly often. every time the child lost a duck, the momwould buy a new one. one night, she finally solved the mysteryof the missing ducks, as her kid splashed around in the tub, woof trotted into the bathroom,snagged the duck and scarfed it down. so mom takes woof to the vet and they removedfive rubber duckies. they also found a toy truck in his belly. the good news is that woof had the items safelyremoved. the bad news is that no toy in that householdis safe.
10. entire kitchen knife puppies are curious little creatures. take lexi here, a staffordshire bull terrierin sydney australia, for example. she for some reason, swallowed an entire eight-inchsteak knife! like all of the other dogs on our list, lexiwas taken to vet for an upset stomach. vets were beyond surprised when they performedx-rays and found a freaking knife inside of her! the vets managed to remove the knife aftercarefully pulling it back through the dog’s
esophagus, a meticulous effort that took closeto an hour to pull off. amazingly, lexi, who was just a six monthold puppy, managed to survive the occasion, though it spent three days in intensive care. how did she manage to swallow an entire knife? well that’s a question no one can reallyanswer. 9. the arm of a murdered man there’s no way to rate weirdness in a quantitativeway. but if you could, this little story wouldhave to rate somewhere on the higher end of
the spectrum. april 25, 1935, a tiger shark was caught nearsydney australia. it was put on public display for entertainment. as it turned out, the shark didn’t disappoint. the shark got sick and puked up a human arm. yes a human arm in a pool in front of bewilderedonlookers. the best part is, this shark ate a smallershark, who had eaten someone’s arm. the arm as it turns out belonged to boxerand professional criminal, jim smith, who had been missing since april 7 of that year.
they were able to identify the arm thanksto a distinctive tattoo. police figured that the arm was cut off aftersmith was murdered and thrown into the ocean where the tiger shark ate it. so they opened a murder investigation, andhad several suspects, as smith had recently become a police informant. their diligent detective work ultimately ledthem to arrest of a local criminal named patrick brady, though he was later acquitted. he maintained his innocence and lived therest of his life as a free man. in the end, this bizarre incident left waymore questions than answers.
it was also the inspiration for a 2003 episodeof csi: miami. this is the story that just keeps on giving! 8. 14 inches of bra strap you’ve probably heard of edible panties,but not edible bras. that’s because edible bras aren’t reallya thing…..i think. unless you’re norris, the rat terrier fromedna ,texas. after norris kept barfing, he was taken tothe vet, who took some x-rays and found a strange metal clip in his stomach.
much to his owner's dismay, it turned outto be part of her bra strap. norris apparently ate 14 inches worth of herbra strap, including part of the metal clip. the mischievous dog must have snuck into thelaundry room and snagged the bra when his owners weren’t paying attention. thankfully, the only casualties were the bra,as norris survived the ordeal. 7. a polar bear greenland sharks are a subject of fascinationfor marine biologists. these elusive creatures are difficult to studyand document.
adding to this fascination is the fact theyhave been known to hunt down polar bears and reindeer on occasion. greenland sharks are virtually indestructible. growing up to 23-feet long, they live up to200 years, and can survive in the most frigid of conditions. their diet mostly consists of large sea creatures,such as seals. their affinity for land animals is especiallyodd because they’re known to lurk deep in the water, around 2,000 feet deep, where temperaturesare about 33 degree fahrenheit. fisherman often hunt these sharks for food,in particular, for a popular dish in the region
called hakkari. when these sharks are caught, they have sometimesbeen found with the remnants of polar bears, reindeer, and even horses in their bellies. how they manage to catch these animals isstill anybody’s guess! 6. an entire chicken coop chicken is a popular dish for us, but apparentlysharks like them too! but it was still surprising when a tiger sharkwas found with a chicken coop inside of him. not just that, but it would appear as thoughthe chickens were still in the coop when it
was eaten. which is probably what piqued the glutinousshark’s interest to begin with. why someone would be so thoughtless as theychuck live chickens into the ocean is beyond us. 5. a horse head here we go with tiger sharks again. this time it’s a horse’s head that wasdiscovered in the shark’s belly. the circumstances under which this occurredare not at all clear, because horses aren’t
exactly known to be prolific swimmers. what we do know is that tiger sharks are extremelyaggressive eaters who eat their prey whole. our guess? the horse was probably on a ship, and somehowmanaged to fall off, and was unlucky enough to come across a hungry tiger shark. 4. a bag of money okay one last item found inside of a tigershark and we’ll stop picking on them. somehow, someway, a tiger shark managed todevour an entire bag of money.
someone apparently was really careless tolet a bag full of cash slip into the ocean. since sharks have no use for money in theocean, eating it seems like the next best option. and before we leave the subject of tiger sharksalone for good, here are a few more curious items found inside of them. license plates, a bag of coal, tools, oldpants, deer antlers, a donkey, a bag of potatoes, explosives, and hyenas. 3. livestock or……?!
when a group of villagers in nigeria noticeda huge snake whose torso was swollen, they assumed it had been eating their livestock. fearing the snake may strike again, they decidedto kill it. after all, they need the livestock to makea living, so it was the best decision for them. however, when they killed the snake and cutit open, they were surprised to find a whole bunch of eggs in it. the snake, which is likely an african rockpython, was pregnant, and was about to give birth to dozens of eggs.
the eggs are actually considered a delicacy,so it was actually a good score for the villagers! while the villagers misread this particularsituation, make no mistake, a full grown python could kill a calf. as africa’s largest snake, they often growup to around 20 feet long, and prey on monkeys, warthogs, antelope, dogs, small crocodiles,and the cubs of big cats. they kill their food using their quick speedand strength to suffocate it. 2. entire human being we saved this scary find for number 2 on thislist.
crocodiles are dangerous to humans. this is evidenced by the many times humanremains have been found inside of crocs. most recently, the remains of a woman killedon the coast of northeast australia were found inside of a saltwater crocodile. cindy waldron went for a late night swim indaintree national park, back in june of 2016, when she was tragically attacked and killedby a 14-foot saltwater croc. search and rescue crews later trapped andkilled the suspected culprit and discovered her remains. a solemn reminder that while we may be themost advanced creatures in the history of
the earth, we can still end up as prey. 1. mummified baby crocodiles and at #1 we have crocodiles again! crocodiles are the most developed reptileson the planet. they’re basically leftover dinosaurs thatcouldn’t seem to be killed off. scientists are constantly discovering bothfascinating and frightening things about these guys. so when they found mummified crocodiles insideof a larger crocodile, well that pretty much
takes the cake in terms of weirdness scientists at the national museum of antiquitiesin the netherlands were using an advanced
scanning method on a crocodile that had beenmummified and on display since 1828, they were astonished when they discovered an additional40 baby crocs who were mummified within the larger croc. here’s what’s next!
