Hats off to animals that fly well even though they’re not birds

1. Atlantic Flying Fish: Animal The first strange flying fish is the Atlantic flying fish (scientific name Cypselurus melanurus). They use flight speed to jump to the surface by slamming their caudal fins and keep their balance in the air with their pectoral fins. After that, they stayed in the air for regarding 45 seconds and fell into the water up to 500m away from the “flying point”.There are regarding 500 known species of flying fish in the world. 2. Paradise Tree Snake (Chrysopelea paradisi) can glide through the air by flattening and stiffening its body and forming an S shape. This snake can even make slight movements through the air by moving its muscles. their bodies, and they flex to maintain stability.By tilting their body from 25 to 30 degrees relative to the air flow, aerodynamics is still guaranteed and can travel with a length of more than 20 meters.Paradise tree snakes often eat geckos and other lizards, bats, and frogs. They live in Southeast Asia and have an average length of up to 1.5 meters. They are diurnal and are easy to recognize due to their bright colors and red flower-like scales. 3. Ants Cephalotes atratu: Ants also know fly. This is true at least for Cephalotes atratus ant species live in the Amazon rainforest.The ants live on the tree canopy, unfortunately, if it falls, it is synonymous with “death”. But for Cephalotes atratus ant is special, while swooping down to the ground, they can perform a “gliding” movement back to the tree trunk. 4. Gecko skydiving Kuhl (Gekko kuhli), also known as the flying gecko, is an Asian lizard found in southern Thailand, Myanmar, Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore.These geckos have wing-like flaps of skin on the sides of their bodies, plus webbed feet and a flat tail that allows them to glide for short distances. Their side flaps also blend in with tree bark, camouflaged so effectively that they can only be seen with their eyes. Like flying frogs, this lizard can cling to smooth and vertical surfaces. 5. Flying lemurs (Cynocephalidae), commonly found in Southeast Asia, can glide between trees at distances of 100 meters or more. This ability makes it one of the mammals that can great flying best of the world.This ape has a membrane that starts from its face and covers its fingers and toes all the way to its tail, allowing it to glide through the air. The limbs and tail of the flying lemur are long and thin, the feet are wide and there are sharp claws for climbing. The light skeleton and large membrane area equip this gibbon with excellent gliding ability.In addition, flying lemurs have large eyes that give them great depth perception, allowing them to glide between branches and land safely. They are so skilled that they can hold their baby in their belly and fly until the baby is old enough to fly on its own.>>>Watch more videos: Laughing “drops jaws” with “super stupid” moments of animals.
