There are many <\/em>wonderful animals on our amazing planet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fact, scientists have estimated that there are currently 8.7 million <\/em>different species roaming around and even believe that there are still a further 7.5 million species yet to be discovered. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, if that doesn\u2019t <\/em>boggle <\/em><\/strong>your mind, I don\u2019t know what will! <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

And what\u2019s even more perplexing is that each and every species has their own unique and identifiable characteristics that make them stand out from the rest. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But when it comes to being tailless, apparently, it\u2019s less common than you might think. Most birds, mammals, reptiles, and even some fish have a tail of some kind. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, there are still quite a few animals that seem to be lacking a tail. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some are simply born without one, a little like you and I, <\/em>some have lost them to injury and disease, and many have simply evolved and ditched the tail throughout the process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But which animals out there don\u2019t have a tail? Let\u2019s find out! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
