The tear drops of turtles contain salt, specially sodium which is an important mineral to which the butterflies are likely attracted. This startling behavior of drinking tears of animals is known as lachryphagy. Geoff Gallice, a graduate student of entomology at the Florida Museum of Natural History said that Turtle tears are not the only source of such salts for butterflies. The insects also readily get the salt from animal urine, muddy river banks, puddles, sweaty clothes and sweating people. He witnessed this sight in the western Amazon rain forest. <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1456417272552","data":"56cf2a40aeade"},{"type":"txt","id":"rich_1456417218863","data":"
Comparatively, this region has less amount of sodium than many places on Earth. The region is more than 1,600 kilometers away from the Atlantic Ocean, a prime source of salt, this is the main reason behind the shortage of salt. And also this region is cut off by the Andes Mountains from windblown mineral particles to the west. Torres said that Dust and minerals make their way into the Amazon from the east, sometimes all the way from north Africa.

You might be thinking that the butterfly feeding help, hurt or have no impact on the turtles? It does have little impact on turtles, by feeding on their tears by obstructing the turtle eyes which perhaps makes them more vulnerable to it\u2019s predators like big cats. In fact, it sometimes becomes easier for the photographer to capture picture of this uncommon sight rather than capturing some bare animals. This kind of feeding does little harm to the turtles. But, the turtles do have enough tears to feed the butterflies as they are taking very little amount of tears. The butterflies simply intake the salts by leaving other minerals through a process similar to absorption by placing the proboscis on the tears and passively feed\". Even bees do drink turtle tears but bees annoy turtles due to their buzzing sound more than butterflies.\n <\/p>"},{"type":"img","id":"img-uid-1456419099862","data":"56cf315657a4a"}]
<\/u>Leonardo DiCaprio is one of the most loved actors of our generation. The internet has time and again trolled Leo through various memes about him and his four losses at the Academy Awards. The guy has been nominated four times excluding this year's 'The Revenant' for 'What's eating Gilbert Grape'(lost to Tommy Lee Jones for his performance in 'The Fugitive', 'The Aviator'(lost to Jamie Foxx for his performance in 'Ray'), 'Blood Diamond'(lost to Forest Whitaker for his performance in 'The Last King of Scotland') and 'The Wolf of Wall Street'(lost to Matthew McConaughey for his performance in 'Dallas Buyers Club'). The awards ceremony approaching fast, it's time to rejoice! Leonardo DiCaprio would win his first Oscar this time! Here's why:<\/i><\/p>
1. The other nominees:<\/i><\/p>
In case of all previous losses of Leo, there was at least one performance which was better than Leo's(except 'What's eating Gilbert Grape', c'mon, he nailed the performance in that), but it is not the case this time. The other nominees who are nominated for the golden man this year alongside Leo are Matt Damon('The Martian'), Bryan Cranston('Trumbo'), Eddie Redmayne('The Danish Girl'), Michael Fassbender('Steve Jobs') which are all wonderful performances but excluding Fassbender, no other performance is as good as Leo's performance in The Revenant. Leo's portrayal of Hugh Glass in this film is very natural and dark and wonderful.<\/i><\/p>
2. Screen Actors Guild awards:\n\nScreen Actors Guild awards may not be as famous as The Oscars, but they are also highly regarded in the film circuit. If we look at the winners of SAG's best actor awards for the past 11 years, the same actors who won SAG award took home the Oscar each year since the past 11 years. And guess what! Leo won the SAG award for the first time this year, this further enhances his chance of winning an Oscar this year.\n\n3. Leonardo's performance:\n\nLeonardo DiCaprio took his method acting skills to a whole new level in this film. If you thought the dinner table scene in 'Django Unchained' was the peak of method acting(Leo hit a beer glass with his bare hands on scene, hurting himself pretty badly during the scene but he went on without breaking character),you haven't seen anything yet. Leonardo DiCaprio ate a raw bison liver in this film(Fun fact: Leo was a strict vegetarian!). He refused to eat a fake liver made from jelly and insisted on eating a real raw bison liver. Not only that but he also endured chilling temperatures during the shoot and he learnt two native American languages for the film. Method acting at its finest!\n\nSo, this is why most of his fans are excited for Feb 28th. Leo is most probably gonna get his first golden man! Let's hope he puts an end to all the memes and trolls on Leo and his Oscar.\n\nThe Academy Awards will be held at Dolby Theater, Los Angeles, on February 28.<\/i><\/p>
