A cow that fell from the sky in Japan
In 1997 a Japanese fishing trawler was rescued in the Sea of Japan. They claimed that a cow fell out of the sky, struck the boat, causing it to sink. The crew members were immediately put in jail. About 2 weeks later the Russian Air Force informed the Japanese authorities that the crew of one of its cargo planes had stolen a cow thinking they would have beef for some time. Of course the cow was not fond of its close surroundings and began to thrash about. To save the aircraft and themselves, at about 30,000 feet, the crew shoved the animal out of the cargo hold as they were flying over the sea of Japan

star jelly rain in Scotland
In 2009, a jelly rain fell in Scotland. Scientists commissioned by National Geographic carried out tests on, but they have so far failed to find any DNA in it.

A rain of worms falls from the sky in the USA
Jennings Police Department employee, Eleanor Beal was just crossing the street to go to work when something dropped from the sky. The sky wasn't falling. She says it was worms, large tangled clumps of them.

Golf balls rain in Florida, U.S.
On Sept. 1 1969, a strange storm, which saw a large number of golf balls falling in the Punta Gorda region, confused the local government in Florida very much. There still remains no appropriate explanation for it. But some experts believe that the region, famous for its golf courses, could have been hit by one of the frequent tornados near Florida Bay. The tornado may have taken the golf balls and dropped them elsewhere.

According to Karim Vahed, a behavioral ecologist at the University of Derby in the U.K., the male tuberous bushcricket has the largest testicles --relative to its bodyweight-- of any animal on Earth. The sperm-producing organs account for 14 percent of the body mass of males of this bushcricket species. The previous record holder's testicles—belonging to the fruit fly Drosophila bifurca— tipped the scales at about 11 percent of its body mass. Among the 21 bushcricket species, the study also showed that, as testicle size increases, ejaculation volume decreases. The discovery runs counter to previous findings in other species—especially mammals. Usually the male with the biggest testicles has more sperm in each ejaculation, thus earning him more tickets in the lottery of fertilizing females, Vahed explained.
