About this listen

Hello everyone, my name is Ivaan and I'm Dad. Welcome to my channel Facts with Ivaan. I'm in year one and every day I come across millions of new facts. Some interesting and some boring. On this channel I show you some amazing facts.

Let's move to the fact of the day. Today let's talk about a unique animal. I was astonished when I discovered facts about them. I'm talking about Axolotl. These are colourful amphibians initially found in Mexico. What makes them unique is that they always remain babies. They don't go through the process of metamorphosis. These impressive creatures can stay young throughout their lives.

They also have another power. They can regenerate their limbs and lungs. Let me tell you a fun fact, newly hatched axolots, hungry for their first meal, sometimes snack on their siblings limbs. After all, their limbs can grow back. That's hilarious! The cute monsters with sweet little smiles however are critically endangered. I'm hopeful that everyone can do their best to save this amazing species. I hope to see them in real life one day.

That is all I have for today. Thank you everyone for listening. I'll see you all soon with some more facts.
