For example, I always believed ostriches buried their heads in the sand to hide, turns out I was naively wrong.
From wiki page:
Ostriches do not stick their heads in the sand to hide from enemies or to sleep. This misconception's origins are uncertain but it was probably popularized by Pliny the Elder (23–79 CE), who wrote that ostriches "imagine, when they have thrust their head and neck into a bush, that the whole of their body is concealed".
Thanks for sharing.
