Is today Saturday? I had almost forgotten it in passing, so as a remembrance, and perhaps the final instance in which I will indulge in this practice,
I now commerate 'Caturday'. http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kx...xyf0o1_500.jpg http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kx...pgvlo1_500.jpg http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ky...htgdo1_500.jpg http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ky...udxto1_500.jpg http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ku...j66do1_500.jpg |

Fareham, Hampshire resident Jane has found a nutty way of getting her lolz on: She suspends two coconuts in mid-air from her clothes line once a week, and watches as local squirrels dive face-first into a pre-cut hole in the fruit’s hard husk. “The first time I saw them feeding I nearly died laughing,” Jane tells The Sun. “They looked like a pair of astronauts.” |

SPEAKING TO THE MEDIA: SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment President Jim Atchison gave a news conference in Orlando, Fla., Friday. Mr. Atchison said the whale that killed a trainer will continue to perform, but no one will be allowed in the water with any of the killer whales until an investigation is finished. -- (Red Huber/Orlando Sentinel via Associated Press) |

Death is Milliseconds Away. . . article courtesy of environmentalgraffiti http://i41.tinypic.com/nlpzk8.jpg Image: Photographer unknown [izismile.] Unless there’s some Photoshop trickery afoot here, this photo makes you want to shout, “He’s behind you!”, because you know that the cute little robin is as good as a gone. Yet there is a morbid fascination about the way we are often most keen to watch animals in their natural setting when they are busy gobbling one another up. The photos collected here add something else to the whole guzzling theme, capturing as they do creatures enjoying their lasts moments in this world before the jaws of death close on them forever. http://i43.tinypic.com/1e6xhk.jpg Image: Chris and Monique Fellows [ny nerd.] The seal may be one of the ocean’s top predators but there’s just no contest when it comes face to face with that most deadly of sharks, the great white. The seal takes one look into those stony black eyes and turns on its flippers – but too late! Despite being over three times as long and almost ten times the weight of its mammalian prey, the great white is not nearly as agile. It must attack from below, bursting out of the water, so that there is only one way the seal can go: down into its gaping maw. http://i41.tinypic.com/ejvtc2.jpg Image: Adam Britton The photo above shows a mud crab that looks destined to become crab sticks being tossed into the nutcracker-like jaws of the Australian saltwater crocodile. There, it is set be put through the grinder at the back of the croc’s mouth. The saltwater crocodile is especially partial towards the mud crab, but it has to be quick, efficient and brutal or else the crafty crustacean may make its escape, or even fight back with a powerful and painful pinch of it pincer. http://i43.tinypic.com/eprrig.jpg Image: David Maitland [j-walk blog.] It’s difficult to say who’s eating who in this snapshot of a struggle between a Morelet’s tree frog and a cat-eyed tree snake, which lasted for hours through the night in the tropical forest of Belize. Locked together in a deadly embrace, neither the kicking tree frog – who you’d have to say is quite handy – nor the stubborn tree snake showed any sign of weakening or backing down from the stalemate. In the end it was photographer David Maitland who gave in and went to bed. http://i40.tinypic.com/xann9z.jpg Image: Kerry Roberts [wherelightmeetsdark] If there was uncertainty in the last shot about whether the tree frog would get it, there sure isn’t here. What bites you on the nose this time is that the squealing, splashing frog is getting eaten alive by… another frog – a cannibalistic green-striped frog to be precise, and one no larger than its tree-dwelling cousin. Cannibalism is unsettling at the best of times, but when it’s in your own back garden, it’s really going to give you a shock – as it did Queensland, Australia resident Kerry Roberts. Still, it just goes to show: it’s a frog eat frog world. [sources.] |
Jet, a while back while hiking with my two boys we found a large snake and I was not afraid to pick it up only because its mouth was stuffed full of a large toad. After we carried the snake around for a while he spit out the toad and except for two small puncture marks it seemed OK, so we let them both go.
