australian shepherds good family dogs :: Article Creator 15 Low-Maintenance Dogs For Busy People The perfect low-maintenance dogs Welcoming any animal into your family is a big commitment, but some popular dog breeds are more demanding than others.

But this organ varies widely in color, shape, length and function across the animal kingdom. Whereas human tongues are pink and typically just over 3 inches (7.6 centimeters) long, the anteater has a 2-foot-long (60 cm) tongue and the blue-tongued skink has a brilliant blue one. Here's a look at 20 amazing animal tongues and the science behind them. Giraffes (Image credit: Shutterstock) If you've ever seen a giraffe's impressive 21-inch-long (53 cm) tongue, you'll know that it's not pink.
