Did you know that anteaters have no teeth?
Their jaws are basically tubes that their tongues (which can be two feet long!) slither through. They "chew" their food with a part of their stomach that grinds stuff up, much like the gizzards of birds.
Isn't that weird and cool?
Thanks, Bill Nye the Science Guy, for mentioning these fascinating facts (I've kind of always had a crush on Bill)!
