Numbats use their long, sticky tongues for catching termites.
Yes, they do!
Frogs(:
The difference is frogs are more circular and have long sticky tongues. Salamanders look more like damp lizards and don't have sticky tongues
Yes, camels have long, sticky tongues that can be up to 18 inches long. Their tongues are a dark bluish-purple color and are covered in papillae, which help them grasp and strip leaves from thorny plants. This adaptation is essential for their survival in arid environments, allowing them to forage effectively despite the presence of prickly vegetation.
Aardvarks have sticky tongues to help them efficiently capture their primary food source, termites and ants. Their long, sticky tongues can extend up to 12 inches, allowing them to probe deep into burrows and extract insects. The stickiness helps to grip the insects as they quickly lick them up, maximizing their foraging success. This adaptation is crucial for their survival in their insectivorous diet.

Numbats will tear open termite nests and termite mounds with their sharp claws, in search of food. Termites form the main part of a numbat's diet, and once they have dug through to the termite nest, numbats will use their long, sticky tongue to collect the insects.
Yes, sloths have long, sticky tongues that can extend up to about 10 inches. This adaptation allows them to efficiently reach and consume leaves, their primary food source, from high in the trees. The sticky texture helps them grasp and pull food into their mouths more effectively.
it is 20 centimeters long.
Frogs with long tongues eat prey that is far away. Frogs (such as Ground Frogs) that eat prey close to them (such as ants) don't have long tongues.so they can catch tings from further away with out being noticed
Numbats have officially been on the endangered list since 2 December 1970.
Numbats feed almost exclusively on termites, although they will sometimes eat other types of ants. They have sharp claws for digging into termite mounds, although they prefer to dig out termites from under logs and underground, being able to detect them with their very sensitive noses. They have a long, cylindrical sticky tongue for collecting the termites.
