What animals are most often found on state symbols?

In this question, thoughtless human vanity was fully manifested.

The first place is occupied by the king of beasts - the lion, which can be seen on the state symbols of 29 countries: Belgium, Bulgaria, Great Britain, Gambia, Ghana, Georgia, Denmark, Dominica, India, Canada, Kenya, Latvia, Luxembourg, Malawi, Morocco, the Netherlands, Norway , Swaziland, Senegal, Singapore, Sierra Leone, Fiji, Philippines, Finland, Chad, Sweden, Sri Lanka, Estonia and Ethiopia.

In second place is the royal bird eagle, the image of which is present on the state symbols of 22 countries: Austria, Albania, Ghana, Germany, Egypt, Zambia, Indonesia, Jordan, Iraq, Iceland, Yemen, Malawi, Mexico, Nigeria, Panama, Russia, Romania , Syria, Solomon Islands, Sudan, USA (bald eagle) and Philippines.

And only the third place, appearing on the state symbols of only 7 countries each, is occupied by a horse (Venezuela, India, Lithuania, Mongolia, Nigeria, Turkmenistan and Uruguay) and a cow (Andorra, Botswana, India) that are much more useful to a person and have incomparably more merit for him. , Iceland, Nepal, Niger and Uruguay).

 Random interesting fact from the Great Encyclopedia:

In which country was the culprit of the accident sued for the fact that the victim after the accident became gay?

A US truck owner had to pay $200 4 years after he "knocked" another truck with only a minor dent. He was ordered to pay the court after considering a claim from an injured driver from Michigan. The lawsuit stated that he had recently left his wife due to the termination of sexual relations, began to visit gay bars and read gay magazines - in other words, the defendant, by his actions, caused not only an accident, but also irreversible changes in the sexual orientation of the victim. The victim's wife was also awarded compensation, however, less - only 25 thousand dollars.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>

hydrogen bubble 09.02.2016

Materials scientists do not like hydrogen: even steel walls are not a barrier to this gas. Moreover, once it enters a metal, it manifests its harmful nature: it travels in the form of individual protons, which, having fallen into any discontinuity, can merge into a molecule. The molecule will not leave the discontinuity anywhere, and this is the way to the so-called hydrogen embrittlement. In general, storing hydrogen is difficult. And for hydrogen energy, it is just necessary to receive, store and transport large volumes of hydrogen. It is possible that a polymer that does not let hydrogen through at all will help solve this important problem.

In 2007, David Johnson, then a graduate student at the University of New Mexico, was studying hydrogen-producing microorganisms. In the course of work, he discovered some strange white bubbles in the samples. Interested, Johnson gave them for analysis, and it turned out that hydrogen is inside the bubbles, and it does not fly anywhere from them. At that time, the researcher failed to find out who makes hydrogen bubbles and why.

In 2009, as part of a special university research development program, he met microbiologist Michael Townsend. He read Johnson's dissertation, reproduced his results and found that this biopolymer is made by yeast at a certain combination of sugar concentration, acidity and temperature. After that, Terry Lombard, the director of the intellectual property protection and implementation program, became interested in their work. He helped patent a new polymer called a hydromer and is now looking for partners to develop coatings for hydrogen vessels. Who knows, maybe it is yeast that will help humanity get easily accessible energy.
