A closer look
Wombat poop is not the only weird animal waste, as penguins shoot their feces out at incredibly high pressures to avoid soiling their nests, creating a spectacular projectile effect. The internal pressure generated by these birds is significantly higher than that of a human, allowing them to launch their waste up to four feet away with the force of a small biological cannon. Scientists have genuinely calculated the fluid dynamics of this process, proving that academia will fund literally anything if you dress it up with enough math. It completely shatters the illusion of these cute, tuxedo-wearing birds when you realize they operate like pressurized poop turrets constantly launching foul-smelling artillery across the ice
