These are interesting facts, and I assume that the theme that ties them to the other article here is one of biology of some sort. I especially like the one about snoring and dreaming.
It is perhaps impossible to avoid some cutting and pasting with the factoids, since to change the wording is to change the fact. But the other article here about exotic animals seems to be just a series ofcut and paste descriptions of different animals. This will not pass as the non-fiction piece (or any other piece) since it is not your own written work. It's possible to write of one of these animals for the non-fiction piece, but the writing must be your own.
