I bought an interesting desk calendar for the New Year last week.
.
.
It’s filled with bizarre facts about animals you didn’t need to know, but now will.. because I’m going to share all the weirdest.
.
.
Buttered popcorn scented musk glands?
.
.
That qualifies as weird in my book. And since I’d never heard of this creature I wasn’t going to take their drawing as proof…
.
.
But you have to admit..
.
.
They nailed it.
.
River's world..... 
That last picture is a picture of me in my state all day yesterday. 😂
Looking for tomorrow.

Interesting calendar. 180º opposite of the SPCA’s cheerful style.

Anything but butter, or the yellow grease they serve at the movies. Dud corn is my go-to movie snack.

So maybe movie theaters should employ a bunch of Bintrongs. Nothing like the smell of buttered popcorn to get you to part with $17.00 for a large bucket!

He looks like a cross between a sloth and ummmm….well, I can’t think of what else it looks like. Pretty cool though; I wish my scent was as good as buttered popcorn.

How to scientists know it smells like buttered popcorn? And that poor creature, it shoes the look as sad as the drawing. Which if we had to sum up the last two years, that drawing of would be it. 😕

No one can mistake the smell of buttered popcorn, even scientists. As for the drawing…. it’s like they did it in my living room.

Well, this is going to be a fun and sad Calendar Journey we get there share. I am looking forward to it. I wonder if a Binturong gets along with cats. I love the smell of Buttered Popcorn.

The animal which secretes a scent that smells like buttered popcorn is now ex-stinked? Serves it right!

Declining, not ex-stinked. But look at him, he’s probably too lazy to mate.

My question, is the binturong trying to attract a mate, or isis it trying to attract movie-going humans that it can just fall on and eat at its leisure. Looks to me, despite its size, that is is not much of a hunter, yet it has obviously survived for an inordinately long time. People do their best to avoid skunks, mink, beaver, and other what we call smelly beasts. The binturong, it came up with something to draw its victims to it. Pretty smart, if you ask me.

Believe it or not, binturongs are related to cats. And they have no natural enemies, yet humans has them high on the endangered list, because of humans!
