Due to Hacktoberfests pull requests are coming in fast! Comment on an issue you are going to work on - and also check open pull requests before you do work someone else has already done.

Steps:

• Fork/clone the repo
• Add a tuple of strings of facts (to animalfacts.py) pertaining to a particular animal. Name the tuple variable following the format 'NAMEOFANIMAL_FACTS'. Put the tuple in alphabetical order with the other tuples.
• Add your tuple to the ALL_FACTS tuple.
• Add a line to the check_comment_for_animal() function for your animal following the format.
• Add your animal to the Readme
• Add me on Twitter @joelatwar

Please:

• Don't add a very small set of facts (this will cause the bot to be repetetive regarding your animal).
• Each fact must make sense independent of the other facts in the tuple because users will only get one fact at a time.
• Only add TRUE facts. Please no trolling with 'alternative facts'.
• Don't add 'seal', 'bat' or 'duck' facts unless you've figured out how to not reply to homonyms.
• Don't add 'cat' or 'dog' because they are just too common on reddit.

If you have a question the quickest way to reach is me on twitter @joelatwar

A Reddit bot that searches for comments on reddit that contain the name of the animal and then replies to the comment with a fact about that animal.
