Good evening and good mood!
Conventional comparison "crawling like a snail" is really justified - snails are considered the slowest animal on the planet.
A notable feature of this species of crocodiles is a long narrow snout, almost 5 times the length of the body in children. Overland gavials unable to travel at a speed exceeding 5 km / h, the water is accelerated to 8-10 km / h.
Snakes impression agile and swift animals, but when driving in a straight line rarely "give" more than 10 km / h. Water snakes are much smarter than their slower counterparts ground.
These small dart frogs if they wanted to not be able to exceed the speed limit at 7 km / h. Therefore, from predators, they do not run away, pretending to be dead, but still emitting a foul odor.
The ten shark swims at a speed of about 5 km / h. They feed on plankton, these giants, chase which does not make any sense. Incidentally, this does slow the whale shark is safe for humans.
Small builders of large tunnels are moving at a speed of about 5-7 km / h. But moles working rather quickly - to dig the meter tunnel, the animal takes only 6 minutes.
Slowest have a body length of rodents in the world a little more than 10 cm. Naturally, moving at a speed in excess of 4-5 km / h, almost unreal in such modest dimensions.
The cold waters of the North Sea is clearly reduce the rapidity of their cold-blooded creatures. Huge shark, weighing about a ton, moving smoothly and slowly, as if asleep on the go. Their speed - about 1.5 km / h.
Sea turtles are moving much quicker and smarter land - at speeds up to 35 km / h. The land is quite clumsy and slow, they move at a speed of 900 meters per hour.
The name of these animals are completely justified. Even if you want to come down from the branches, sloths do not slip on the trunk and just fall down. On the ground sloths literally crawl on their bellies at a speed of about 150 meters per hour. However, many of them - are good swimmers, developing in the water speeds up to 4 km / h.
On overcoming the distance of half a meter in the cochlea need an hour. Although, given the size of the slowest animal on earth, this rate is justified. But a special mucus allows the snails to easily navigate through a vertical surface.
