Dogs, cats and bulls have a sense of sight, but did you know that they are color blind? The bull –fighter or matador waves are red flag in front of the bull to make it angry. But by waving a black cloth, or a white one or even a checked one he could make it just as angry!
Raccoons are said to wash their food before eating it. It is not as if they are fussy about cleanliness, because they wash their food even in water dirtier than their food! Perhaps they just enjoy their food in water.
