Random Fact: It is also illegal in Switzerland to own only one Parrot because they get lonely by themselves.

The role of Monica on Friends was offered to Janeane Garofalo, who turned it down.
According to the Guinness Book of World Records (2005), Cox (along with her female co-stars) became the highest-paid TV actress of all time, with her US$1 million-per-episode fee for the final two seasons of Friends.

All six cast members — Courtney Cox, Jennifer Aniston, David Schwimmer, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc and Matthew Perry — receive 2 percent of the syndication income, which is about $20 million for each person per year, USA Today reports. The show brings in about $1 billion per year for Warner Bros.

Bats make up a quarter of all mammals. There are more than 1,100 species of bats in the world, and they play an essential role in our ecosystem. The ecological roles of bats include pollinating and dispersing the seeds of hundreds of species of plants. For example, bats serve as primary pollinators of many types of cacti that open their flowers only at night when bats are active. Also, bats eat copious quantities of insects and other arthropods.
Random Fact: Vampire bats can carry rabies, making their bites potentially dangerous, and they can live up to an average of nine years in the wild and up to 20 years in captivity.
