Florian, the proud recipient of numerous Guinness World Records, estimates he’s invented over 10,000 new tricks, most

This is a video of Otis the tamandua anteater at the San Diego Zoo showing off his 16-inch tongue as he grabs some grubs at the bottom of a giant clear straw. Damn, that tongue is wild. Could you imagine if you had a tongue like that? I can’t. I
