3. American Woodcock – A Patient Hunter
While most birds use their speed to hunt or escape predators, the American Woodcock surprisingly makes it to this list. They are considered to be the slowest birds in the world, so how did they manage to survive? Since the woodcock would never be the “early bird”, it doesn’t wait for the worm to come out. Instead, these birds locate their prey in its underground hideouts and pull them out with their long beaks.
4. Manatee – Nature’s Pacifist
Colloquially known as “Sea Cows”, manatees are marine mammals that mainly inhabit shallow water in Africa and America. Their main source of food is aquatic plants (such as seaweeds and kelp), and can weigh as much as 59kg (130lb). These animals are not territorial, which saves them time and energy, and they only travel to find food. These swimmers are so voracious that they can easily consume as much as a 10th of their weight in just 24 hours.
