A Bird's Eye View on Bird Trivias

Sometimes we wish we're free as a bird. We just spread our wings and fly endlessly in the skies. Birds are very interesting animals and you'll surely be more interested if you find out amazing facts about some of them.

*The Albatross has a wing span of up to 14 feet and only needs to land once every couple of years to breed. They can travel hundreds of thousands of miles each flight.

*An albatross is able to sleep and fly at the same time. 

 

*If an average man had a metabolism comparable to that of a hummingbird he would have
to eat 285 pounds of hamburger every day to maintain his weight.

*Owls turn their heads in almost a circle because they cannot move their eyes. Their
eyeballs are not round like ours. They are tubular.

*The female cuckoo bird destroys eggs in other bird's nests and replaces them with her own. The eggs are instinctively cared for by the mother of the destroyed eggs.

* Birds actually dream when they sleep. According to research conducted by the University of Chicago, they dream about their songs, have dream rehearsals, and sing the same songs better the next day.

*A flamingo must turn its head upside down to eat. 

*All of the swans in England are the property of the queen. Disturbing or bothering
them is considered a serious offense.  

Birds are just amazing that is why people admire them and owners love them so much. If you have a bird, be sure to protect and care for them with only the safe and reliable pet supplies.

Eric Cartman and the Dog Whisperer

This is an old episode alright, but still posted it just for laughs!

In this episode, Eric's mom seeked the help of real-life dog whispere Cesar Millan to help her train his son and hopefully develop a good behavior. The dog whisperer gives Eric a funny treatment, a dog treatment actually which he did not like. Find and watch the "Walking Cartman" and the series of episodes with the Dog Whisperer.

If you love dogs and you love South Park, I'm sure you loved this episode. Watch it again! For those who will see it for the first time, enjoy!

Seems like the video was removed from Youtube so I can;t embed it, but here's the link to the South Park website where you can watch the episodes online.

Houdini Dog

Houdini, the magician made name with his great escaping stunts. Well it seems like he's gonna lose his title to a four-pawed newbie. Meet Brandy. Saw this video from Youtube today.

I didn't know dogs can climb. But this dog actually did to escape a proof dog fence. Well,  I guess this is what happens if you don't have  petsafe dog fence. Watch Brandy now and be amazed with her great escape!

Presidential Dogs

US have already had 44 presidents, including the present leader, Barrack Obama. All of them are great men, great leaders. There is a saying that behind every man's success is a woman. While this can be held true. we can also say that behind these distinguished leaders are their dogs.

Time Magazine, in their Photo Essays, featured a collection starring former presidents and their dogs. Meet the presidential dogs and see what they looked like. Learn their names. Get some posing ideas so you can have your photo taken with your dog while imitating the pose of George Washington, Calvin Coolridge, Warren Harding, etc.

Here's the link to Time's photo gallery.

The Beatles' Song for Dogs

A Day in the Life made by the fab four, John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr had on its ending, an ultrasonic whistle, audible only to dogs. This was recorded by Paul McCartney for his Shetland sheepdog.

Watch the video here, have your dog sit beside you and see if he can hear the ultrasonic whistle.

About Batman Stingray

Stingrays are sensitive animals and they could not endure that type of mutilation.  Stingrays also have an amazing ability to regenerate their disc, which would further recognize 'batman rays' to be a developmental disfunction.

Batman Rays are the result of a defect during embryonic development of the disc.  The frontal area of the disc fails to fuse together.  This morph is very uncommon, and no one to date has been able to reproduce these rays with success.  Much like Albino or Xanthic morphs, these rays are a genetic misfit, and are usually only birthed in captivity because the survival rate of a deficient animal in the wild is next to none.  This is due to predation and competition for food. They live just normal stingray and needing the same fish supplies.

The so-called ‘Batman’ stingray morphology. The disk failed

to fuse in front of the head during embryonic development of

this Potamotrygon motoro.

These rays move, eat, and act like normal stingrays.  Special care must be provided as they tend to have a harder time competing for food.  Beyond the few that are being kept in captivity, very little is known about the Batman Ray.  We can assume that it is a genetic mutation, similar to a 'cleft lip' in a human, and that it is in no way man-made.  These stingrays demand a very high price due to rarity.

There is no known genetic component to cleft lips in humans, and batman morphology in stingrays almost certainly has nothing to do with genetics.

Dog Drinks Slow Motion

Have you ever observed closely how dogs drink water? Let's enter to the time warp and split seconds in thousand times to see clearly how dogs drink water.


The set up was not just in dog bow, not on pet feeder & waterer, not in fond or anywhere just outside, it's on the laboratory with the high definition camera was set.
