Five parrots had to be separated at a UK zoo because they kept swearing at visitors... and laughing about it together.

The Lincolnshire Wildlife Park adopted five African grey parrots—Billy, Elsie, Eric, Jade, and Tyson—at the same time, and things got wild pretty fast. The birds started hurling curse words at guests, often in perfect timing, and then laughed together like a little group of troublemakers.

Visitors found it funny (which only encouraged them more), and the parrots were clearly enjoying the attention. One zookeeper compared them to “old men in a pub.”

Eventually, the zoo decided to separate the birds to stop them from egging each other on—hoping they might pick up some more polite phrases from the other animals around them.

The bombardier beetle is a fascinating insect known for its unique defense mechanism. When thr , it ejects a hot, noxious chemical spray from its abdomen with an audible "pop" — almost like a tiny explosion. The beetle produces this spray by mixing two chemical compounds, hydrogen peroxide and hydroquinone, inside a special chamber in its body. Enzymes then trigger a rapid reaction that heats the mixture to near-boiling point, creating a chemical bomb that can deter predators like ants, frogs, or birds.

This natural defense system is so efficient and precise that it's often studied in biomimicry and engineering. Wild, right?
