Wut

Nature really went off with sperm whales. A 70-ton predator with teeth the size of a banana but it only eats squishy prey that it doesn’t even chew, it just schlorps them down whole like a vacuum cleaner. Big giant fat head full of goop. Tiniest fins in the world. Strong enough to smash a ship to pieces and smart enough to figure out how to do so but its first line of defense is just to shit everywhere. Possibly the most complex language in the animal kingdom and it creates sounds by blowing air through its internal right nostril (it uses the left one to breathe) into its giant fat head. It’s the loudest animal on the planet and might have the capability to create a beam of sound so loud it can shake your organs apart but they don’t seem to use that to hunt or fight. They’re highly flammable. We used them to make candles.

A quick and dirty on why retractable leashes are the devil:

1- Your dog is 15 feet away... do you know what it just ate? Did you see the squirrel it killed before it did? How, exactly, do you plan to keep the dog out of the road?

2- If the dog gets a good running start it can pull the leash out of your hand. And if you suddenly hit the stop toggle you can harm your dog.

3- Those leashes are very sharp at speed. They can lacerate both you or your pet.

4- Congratulations, your dog just created a Gordian Knot around you, that tree, and an errant child.

5- That dog down the street is reactive to other dogs based on proximity. Your dog is now 25 feet closer to that dog.

6- Your dog just took a dump 20 feet out in a field of tall grass. Have fun playing hunt the poop.

The March Madness

The mating period of European hares starts end of January, beginning of February and ends end of July, beginning of August. The height of the breeding season, is known as "March madness", when the normally nocturnal bucks are forced to be active in the daytime.The boxing usually occurs when a male is being too persistent with a female, chasing her across fields in an attempt to mate.

Right at the beginning of the hare breeding season, in January, is also the best time to see the constellation Lepus.

I love me some ki-yotes.
