What can these animals do?

A. The green basilisk lizard is about 200 grams.

It uses its hind legs to run on water.

Can you guess how far it can run on water?

The maximum distance is 5 meters.

Then, it sinks in water. That's awesome.

B. The Turatopsis nutricula is a kind of jellyfish.

This incredible creature can start its life again and again.

The Turatopsis has got children when it reaches 4 .5 millimeters.

Then, the parent jellyfish becomes a baby again.

So, it can live forever like Peter Pan.

Only a big fish can kill it. That's incredible.

C. Some characters in films and cartoons can change their shapes.

Jake in Adventure Time is an example.

In real life, people can't do this, but some animals can.

The mimic octopus lives in the sea in Indonesia.

It can change the color of its skin.

Also, it can change shape and look like a different animal,

so it can be safe.

Even dangerous, big fish cannot hurt it.

That's a miracle.
