My family always took all our animals, and there were a lot of them, to the vet. They said that the animals would get very sick if we didn't, so I used to believe that wild animals would walk into a vet's office on their own so they wouldn't get sick and die.

When I was nine, my brothers friends convinced me that a haggis was a four legged animal. I started to smell a rat when they tried to convince me that its front legs were shorter than its back legs, so it could stand up straight on a hill.

when i was little i went to the beach and there were loads of barnacles stuck to the rocks and i asked my dad what they were there for and he told me that creatures lived inside them so for some reason i thought he meant little miniature elephants and polar bears. I belived that until i was about 9 years old.

My son is only two, but he's seen a lot of animals on TV. Almost everytime we go outside, he looks everywhere because he believes monkeys, giraffes, and elephants are living here in the USA but they hide so nobody can catch them.

I used to believe all cats were female and all dogs were male... this was also true for other animals.. such as all ostriches were female and all hippopotamus were male.

I went to visit my relatives in NY and my cousin played a trick on my brother and I. One evening he said, lets go snip hunting. He explained that snipes were little bird like creatures that live in the ground and get there buy digging little holes resembling snake holes. He said there's two holes for each snipe. He told us to cover up one hole of the pair and bang on the ground and scream and yell and the snipe would come shooting out the other hole and you catch it with a net. He told my brother to go inside and get a flashlight. Then I went with him to the backyard and he started digging little holes in the ground. I went along with it to fool my brother, and when he caught no snipes he suspected that he was being fooled. My cousin told him that snipes were real and to look it up on the internet. My brother soon found a site explaining the practical joke. It was so funny, I reccomend it if you want to see someone screaming and beating the ground.

I used to sleep with the covers over my head cause I thought my pet fish would jump out of their bowls and bite me.

In the U.S., there's a brand of tuna fish called Bumble Bee. So when I was little, I thought honeybees made honey and bumblebees made tuna.

When I was a boy I flushed my fish down the toilet thinking that it would go to its mommy and daddy.

I used to believe that taxidermied creatures were alive and that by some magical force they hybernated during the day, and came alive at night. Also if only their head was sticking out of the wall, their body was behind it. I used to tell them that I knew their secret.

When I was about five, we had a big tree in our backyard. I truly believed that squirrels lived inside the trunk of the tree and that the knots on the tree were doors. I would spend hours knocking on all of the "tree doors", trying to get a squirrel to answer.

Yo know how when there are beams of light inside a house you can see the dust particles moving. Well when i was little i thought they were tiny animals like birds so i would put them in a fish tank and place it i my room. I always thought thy had escaped becuz i put them in areas without the light beams so i would run around the house with the tank looking for "them".

My sister told me i was raised by squrrels. She said that my parents took me in because i was getting to big for my squrrel mom to carry and that i wouldnt fit in their nest. SHe called me squrrel girl for the next year. I beleived her and asked her why my parents had pictures of me on the day i was born and she said that my real parents sent them to my om nd dad. I beleived her until i realized my family was in some of the pictures.

When I was in pre-school I was playing "My Little Ponies" with a girl who was about a year younger than me. She wasn't very nice because her mother was one of the pre-school teachers and she felt that made her more important than the rest of us. Anyway, I got stuck playing with her and she made her pony say it was going to eat mine! I got really upset and asked why and her pony said "Because I like meat!!!" I told her that ponies don't have any meat on them because they don't eat meat, only grass. We got into a huge fight over and she ran and asked her mom, who told me the sad truth. I stopped playing with her after that.
My poor little pony!!!
My father told me long ago that cows had two legs shorter than the others so they could walk on hillsides. I believed that for years.
