When I was little, I had a bunny, whose name was bun-bun. He was brown. Anyway. I once left a salad next to him and when I came back, it was gone. My mother proceded to point out that the salad was inside of him. Thus, I believed, untill I was in third grade, that salad was evil becuase you had to cut open bunnies to get salad.

I used to believe that golf balls were really animals from Scotland caled "golfs". I even used to talk to them. I thought hitting them was cruel!

Up to this day, (I'm 18), I believed that chickens self-reproduced. Never in my wildest dreams would I assume that roosters and hens did the wild nature dance. Or cows and almost every other animal for that matter. I got schooled by my roomates, who basically laughed in my face. It was like sex education all over again. I was in denial I thought that farmers just had to feed there chickens until they got fat and the chickens didn't have any room left in their tummies so an egg would come out. What has the world come too?

when i was a kid my granddad used to tell me there were wolves in the woods to stop me wandering off during picnics. i got so scared that my mum told me there was no such thing as wolves, and they all became extinct years ago. no-one ever corrected this belief, until i was 26 and my hubby laughed at me for still thinking there was no such thing as wolves.

My great-grandmother taught me that mountain goats had legs shorter on one side than the other. I imagined all of those goats needing to walk forever in the direction in which their particular anatomy allowed them to walk without falling over.

When I was young, my brothers told me that hammerhead sharks killed you by literally hammering you on the head. I has nightmares about driving through a wave and then being pounded to death by an angry hammerhead!

When I was younger and watching a lot of western movies I believed that horses had the power to bring cowboys back to life by licking their faces . This seemed to happen a lot when a cowboy had been shot or knocked out . Their horse would stand over them give them a lick and they would be revived .

We had a wooden crocodile from Africa and my brother told me it was just dried out, and if I poured water on it, it would come alive. I believed it, and even warned my friends not to do that or it would eat us!

I thought that if you saw a stag or an elk head mounted on a wall, the rest of the animal was on the other side in the next room.

When I was little, I saw a possum in the middle of the road (dead, of course). I asked my mom what it was and she said, "Roadkill, sweetie. That's what happens when you run out in the road."
The next week, we were at the zoo and a woman came out of a room holding a live possum. I screamed at the very top of my lungs, "Look, Mom! Roadkill!!!"
