So did you know? Maybe a few but not all you liars!
DaisyfromDownunder
You missed the one about Abe Lincoln telling you not to believe everything on the internet.

So... how many of those are bs?

I once saw a Chinchilla sucking his own dick at a pet store when I was 10.

The animations are so nice. But the facts are all bullshit right?
Phlynch
#20 to get an idea of just how ridiculous the platypus was, it was called absurd and assumed to be fake by the scientists of the time.
Phlynch
Back when those very "scientists" believed that flies where what happened when meat evaporated.
rafe005
dog one isn't true, my dog wags it tail on the same side you scratch it's butt.
DragonsLoveTacosButHateSpicySalsa
Maybe scratching the butt on the left side makes it sad.
rafe005
possible, but she doesn't complain so probably only sad I'm not scratching the right side ;)
TheDemonBeaverOfFleetStreet
This looks and reads like a picture book for 8 year olds. A little too advanced for my taste.
squintish
The 'fake' platypus was a stuffed specimen. No platypus were harmed trying to pull the bill off.

I feel some of these are made up.

Quite Interesting.

Koalas DO NOT smell like cough drops, and wombat poo is not vaguely cuboidal to stop it rolling away. Ffs, Qi.

they're the reverse of IQ, so...

The tongue of the giraffe is about 16 inches long and is BLUE in color!
calluSparkleSmasher
Why would wombat poop evolve to not roll away.
CardboardStomach
Scent marking most likely. Allows them to mark territory and leave scent cues that last longer.
squintish
A woodpecker's tongue wraps around the back of its neck.
KongBjoern
i think the swift one is less impressive than it sounds, horses stand sleeping by locking their joints IIRC and i guess its the same idea
heybells
What the hell is a cough sweet???
TheOneMaerem
Oooh that does make more Sense, i read cough sweat and was like "woah wtf not that cute after all"
TwelveFoot
I'm assuming it's what we'd call a cough drop?

I miss Stephen Fry on QI.
HapJustHap
I feel like some of these may not be true.
PhotoTopher
Just a “single” ancestor? Did it go through mitosis?
Pange13
I thought polar bears were found to be an offshoot of Grizzlies, so maybe the first mutated bear just mated with a grizzlt?
RealObiwan
The one that was on Noah’s ark m8 lol.

It's typical of QI these days. They've gotten very lax over time and it borders on sensationalism.
Jsouth73
I’d assume they meant that can trace their ancestry back to a single colony or whatever of polar bears in Ireland
Phlynch
No, the other ancestors are sweedish.
Thargrid
Cub born with pigmentless fur, distinct hunting advantage during an ice age. Successful hunter = desirable mate. Genes get passed on.
ShutTheFrontDoors
Maybe they are referring to the male, but different females existed? Idk.
SlightlyDodgy
It's the same as horses of a certain type are all bread from a single stud.
Whatsthecodetothewifi
Pregnant female that crossed the land bridge
Navrodel
Probably just one specific individual that all of them can trace their line to, but other bears of its time don't have the same diffusion 1/
Navrodel
amongst the modern population. Not the only one that had kids, but all great-great-great-etc grandkids are his, sort of thing. 2/2
25schmeckles
It mated with other different non polar bears but the polar genes were dominant?
VigorousButtstuff
This is great, but this is much, much funnier on the actual show. :D

Wombat Poo for Reference

Yes, we all knows squirrels kiss to identify each other. We've all seen Sword in the Stone.

#1 Big deal. Licking inside a giraffe's ears is easy, well easy until the zoo kicks you out....
Goldfisj
Can I just ask why a wombat would care if its poop rolled away?
LocalZoophile
Most other animal's poop is round and it never had a rolling-away problem...
ChantellyLace
I know this! They use the smell to communicate different things to other wombats, like mating, or just saying hi. Important it stays put.
TurkNJD
......and thats why they called me Wombat in high school!
VigorousButtstuff
Imagine if Humans do that... "The Hallmark Poop Company"
ChantellyLace
I imagine if I used this method to communicate, I'd follow a monkeys lead. Targeted distribution.

An Ostrich running backwards does not have legs like a human, unless you've got two hip joints per leg.
hungrydutchman
I bet you’re a lot of fun at parties
xVVitch
Can you people come up with something new to say? No one gives a shit.
eegcmstit
I think they meant the motion looks similar.
swattyKnotts
But as pedantic as QI are,they should be called on it.
eegcmstit
Fair enough, -10 points!
MistehrFarenheit
And the feet are a part of the leg but are then reversed. Should’ve said knee but that’s not as baited
InspectorMonroe
It's typical of QI these days. They've gotten very lax over time and it borders on sensationalism.
RecurringNightmare
but that joint isnt its knee, its the heel...most animals walk on their toes and their knees are hidden near the hips...
MistehrFarenheit
Holy shit I hadn’t even considered that it’s the heel moving up...Mind. Blown.
