These are the sketches from the art show I went to a few weeks ago. Please enjoy them. By the way, the Wildlife Center has an intern named Emma now, and I thought things were confusing with Sarah or Jessica.
No, Drow, this isn't "stealing art," it's reposting it on imgur in case something happens to them like Facebook decides to disallow propagation of images on outside sites or simply changes their URLs again, which they will do.
After watching a video on Youtube about animals that aren't actually dinosaurs but get lumped in with them, I thought I needed to look at the fenestrae. Birds and every non-testuine reptile*, which are diapsids, should have two, which will lower their weight. Turtles, which are anapsids, have none. Mammals, which are synapsids, have one where the jawbone attaches. There's a fourth thing called euryapsid but there aren't any of those anymore. Basically, plesiosaurs, placodonts, and ichthyosaurs. Placodonts look a bit like either inflated iguanas or turtles with degenerated shells, but they didn't evolve from proto-turtles.
*however, snakes lost their fenestrae and lizards lost a fenestra and the fenestrae in birds are so rearranged as to be unrecognizable. I think I found the bird fenestrae.
A goose with diarrhea isn't doing so good. He'll probably get one more chance.
A chunk of Alaska should be designated a wilderness area so no drilling or pipelining, so suck it Palin. It probably won't actually happen because Republicans control congress.
Blenderize is a real word according to Nina and to Wiktionary. Well, technically, it's dialectal like ain't and y'all. Nina doesn't take Wiktionary seriously but it still records usage of blenderize. Shakespeare invented the word assassination and eyeball.
Anesthesia on a fish involves anesthetic the water and then pumping that through their gills. I love how I can spell anesthesia. I also love it when autocorrect changes an existing word, except I actually don't.
Lunar caustic (which is the coolest name for a chemical ever) also known as silver nitrate turns the skin black or brown, so it looks like a really bad henna tattoo. For extra fun, rub that shit in any open wounds and lacerations. Actually, don't do that, it's stupid.
Back in the 19th century, lunar caustic was rubbed into wounds to prevent the onset of rabies. It probably didn't work.
Courtney can't imagine what it must feel like having your organs move around.
Obviously the bunny couldn't feel it but back in the day, surgery involved "bite down on this bullet and drink a bottle of whiskey, and we'll saw your leg off." I couldn't imagine what internal surgery must feel like.
there was a Soviet doctor who had appendicitis whilst in Antarctica and he performed surgery on himself.
Most mammals can't eat onions and garlic. Humans, and apparently, all great apes, can eat them.
burning question: why do people buy dairy products before a blizzard?
