By usual behavior do you mean most common behavior? If you do then the answer is the common snapping turtle. And then there is also the "uncommon" common snapping turtle. http://hub.me/aaBl5 :-)
I can't answer for 'usual' behavior, flashmakeit, but If you meant to refer to UNUSUAL behavior, then there is only one animal that wins the prize. Which animal? Man! . . . (and Woman).
It's got to be Homo sapiens surely. When you look at all other animals on this planet, we are undoubtedly the oddest in terms of behaviour. We wear clothes, cook food, believe in Gods, ride around in metal boxes and live in artifical caves. We have sex in private and we communicate through art. I remember watching a cheesy film called 'The Mating Habits of the Earthbound human.' I think Carmen Electra played the woman in it. It's really quite funny and highlights just how unusual we are.
I have always thought the African Lungfish to be one of the most unusual after seeing a National Geographic feature on them years ago. They live in water until evaporation from harsh climate takes it toll, then they secrete a slime which dries to a protective moisture sealant exposing only the mouth which can then breathe air from primitive lungs until water again becomes plentiful. Lungfish also have feet-like fins that allow them to "walk" back to water in the rain. They can survive in encapsulation for 2-4 years.
sorry, I thought the question was about UNUSUAL behavior!! As far as usual or predictable behavior, I'd say a rattlesnake.
It should be unusual behavior. Sorry I made a mistake.

Are Christians held to a higher standard of behavior than non-Christians?The most ludicrous thing I've heard yet is someone saying they wish there was a test to see whether one is a true Christian. What the hell do you need that for? So you can judge a Christian and jump all over them...

Why do you think serial killers go unnoticed for so long?It is so strange to me that serial killers in most cases go so long without being noticed, why do you think that seems to be the case?

I have several articles written under another hub name. They focus on the same topics, just different issues that are all related. They get some traffic and the comments I get are pretty good. People ask me what they should do for advice or encouragement. I use motivation to help...

Why do religious people often insist that religion is what creates moral behavior?As an agnostic/atheist who works hard to do the right thing every day I find this insulting and ridiculous. After all, if prayer and religious beliefs equaled morals there would be no controversy with priests...
