Thunderbird Posted August 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 I figured you knew T-Bird, but it is a cool move, don't you think? You ever see that video of a heron picking up bread that people left on the shore of a lake then placing it on top the water to bait a fish?

Yeah I have, I've also seen a demonstration of crows reading human body language so well they could tell if a man was armed but hiding the gun!

DougF Posted August 28, 2008 Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 A coil of teeth caps the lower jaw of a sculpture of a 13-foot (4-meter) whorl-tooth shark, or Helicoprion, a fish genus that lived about 250 million years ago.

Galapagos Posted August 28, 2008 Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 Echidna!Echidnas and the Platypus are the only egg-laying mammals, known as monotremes. The female lays a single soft-shelled, leathery egg twenty-two days after mating and deposits it directly into her pouch. Hatching takes ten days; the young echidna, called a puggle, then sucks milk from the pores of the two milk patches (monotremes have no nipples) and remains in the pouch for forty-five to fifty-five days, at which time it starts to develop spines. The mother digs a nursery burrow and deposits the puggle, returning every five days to suckle it until it is weaned at seven months. Male echidnas have a four-headed penis, but only two of the heads are used during mating. The other two heads "shut down" and do not grow in size. The heads used are swapped each time the mammal has sex. Weirdos! I like the name puggle, I wonder where that came from? Surely a suitably strange name for these strange critters.

Called camel spiders because they live in the desert.They actually aren't spiders at all, they're solpugids.. Along with spiders, they are members of the class Arachnida.
