Have you ever noticed how some kinds of animals are really hard to tell apart Take alligators and crocodiles for instance Or leopards and jaguars And what about frogs and toads You need to look closely at each of these pairs to figure out exactly who's who But there are lots of creatures in the animal kingdom that you'd never confuse with each other Like giraffes and hummingbirds Or sharks and snails They're such different creatures they couldn't possibly have anything in common Right Think again It turns out these odd couples and many others are more alike than meets the eye
What could this odd couple have in common Bee hummingbird Measures about the size of a bumblebee
