Tongues!

So, let’s talk tongues because well, why not. These facts are not researched and should not be trusted enough to quote…

The human tongue has 8 muscles in it. Some sites say the human tongue is the strongest muscle in the body, but I highly doubt that is even remotely possible. Take that little detail as you would like.

Giraffes can clean their own ears with their tongue coming in at an average of 21 inches. Not impressed? Well according to Guinness’s Book of World Records the longest human tongue is 4 inches long. So yeah.

The giraffes long tongue is no match for the anteaters tongue at a whopping average of 2 feet in length!

The tube lipped nectar bat holds the record for longest tongue in comparison to body size with a tongue that is 1 and a half times its own body length.

The snakes tongue smells stuff and a chameleons tongue is sticky.

Okay there you have it, some fun (or not fun) facts about tongues that may or may not be disproved.
