The archer fish shoots powerful jets of water from its mouth to knock tasty insects out of mid-air from up to five feet away. When threatened, a bombardier beetle can release a chemical strong enough to burn skin. Binturongs smell like popcorn––but the reason why might be too gross to put into words here. You'll have to look inside for more! Even the biggest animal lover can find something new and fascinating about the animal kingdom in World Almanac Oddball Animals.
