Fuzz… the end.

.

And so we reach the end of another series of highlights. I have to say, Mary Roach has really grown on me. I live for weird and wonderful facts and in this respect, she certainly is full of it.

2×3 = 9,000,000? That is a completely mind boggling statistic. You would think even a rabbit has a headache now and then. Nine million bunnies in 3 years? That’s some serious fornicating my friends.

Sadly the end of the book dealt with all the horrible ways we humans react to what we perceive as an over abundance of wildlife. Simply put…if you get in our way? You’re toast.

Well, that’s a bit extreme.

Climate change, loss of habitat, deforestation, pesticides. We kill even when we don’t mean to.

Seen at the Penguin Place private conservation reserve. The Yellow Eyed Penguin is endanged.

Another beautiful creature whose time is almost up. Adapt to the damage we wreak upon the planet or perish.

Neither choice is good. Even if you’re wearing pink go go boots.

Egg products no one needs.

Disclaimer: I am not an egg fan. I cook with them but have never found them the least bit appetizing…. so my take on these products might be slightly skewed.

Mr. Sneezy?

No thank you.

While this one doesn’t gross me out per se…

They’re something about dropping a group of penguins in boiling water I just can’t get behind.

Do we need to mold eggs?

.

We most certainly do not.
