I never knew why birds pooped on their own legs. I would have never guessed that it helps cool them.

Hiding from the heat and sleeping sound like good choices. So does swimming.

Of course the real favourite is always the cool treat. Humans and animals alike enjoy a cool treat.
So what is your favourite cool treat?
