@theteachingastro: 🐓🔊 Ever wondered how roosters can crow so loudly without damaging their own hearing? Roosters have a fascinating built-in hearing protection mechanism! When a rooster throws its head back to crow, soft tissue partially covers its ear canal, helping reduce the sound reaching its eardrum. It's a clever bit of natural anatomy that helps protect the bird from the incredibly loud noise it produces itself! 🔬 Science fact of the day: roosters have a natural way of protecting their ears from their own crowing! #ScienceFacts #AnimalFacts #Roosters #AnimalBiology #biology
