Lungs

Fly with lungs

Insects breathe by a process called diffusion. They absorb oxygen through tiny holes in their bodies. Diffusion is only efficient at small distances. This means that flies can only grow to a limited size.

But if they ever develop lungs…

We’re a Snake

Hiss, hiss, etc

We’re a snake. Hiss. We’re very dangerous, maybe even poisonous. So keep your distance.

Ants? Nah, haven’t seen any ants round here in ages.

Probably they all ran away when they saw us. Cos we’re a snake. A big, scary snake.

Selfish Shellfish

Hoarding pearls on the ocean floor

All of these shinies, all of them are mine. No, you can’t have any. Besides…don’t you know where they’ve been?

Landlord

The robin is a bird so territorial, he’ll build a nest in your garden, and then charge you rent.

If you wish to continue your residence here, so unseemingly close to my holiday home, I’m afraid I shall have to come back weekly to collect two shillings and six pence rent.
