We all love funny animal videos, so here is this lil one making the great escape. Watch and enjoy

The Mighty Tigon

So what is a Tigon? Not to be confused with the Liger (discussed in earlier posts), the Tigon is a hybrid cross between, as you probably have guessed, a tiger and a lion. However, the sex of the parents from the two species is what makes a cub a Tigon or a Liger. The tigon is therefore, the result of only when a male tiger mates with a female lion.

This beautiful beast possesses genetic make up from both parents, making it's visible characteristics quite random. They may have spots from the  mother lion ("lions carry genes for spots-lion cubs are spotted and some adults retain faint markings) and stripes from the father. Male tigon may possess a mane but is quite shorter than a regular lion's. Although quite remarkable on it's own merit, they are not as popular as the other hybrid, the liger. This is due to the fact that the tigons do not grow to the majestic larger size as the ligers can.

A nice interesting fact about these tigons are that they can produce both lion and tiger sounds when they roar. A sad fact though is that their lifespan, as with most hybrid animals, are shorter than that of  a normal species. They tend to be prone to illnesses which can make life difficult for them.

One thing for sure though, I would love the chance to see one in person one day. Here is Maude, she is displayed in  The Manchester Museum  located in the United Kingdom. Beautiful isn't she.

Mi Mudduh Get Lick Dung!

A bus was involved in an accident on the busy Half-Way Tree Road on Friday afternoon.
As expected, traffic came to a stand-still, and a large vocal crowd gathered. A male reporter from one of our 'big' newspapers, anxious to get his story could not get near the bus or the victim(s).
Being a clever sort, he started shouting loudly, " Unnuh let me through! Let me through! A mi madda get lick-dung. "
The crowd made way for him. Lying in front of the bus was a donkey.

Crazy Facts

• If you yelled for 8 years, 7 months, & 6 days you would've produced enough sound energy to heat 1 cup of coffee. (Hardly seems worth it.)
  

• If you fart consistently for 6 years & 9 months, enough gas is produced to create the energy of an atomic bomb. (Now that's more like it!)

• A pig's orgasm lasts 30 minutes. (In my next life, I want to be a pig.)

• A cockroach will live 9 days without its head before it starves to death. (Creepy.) (I'm still not over the pig.)

• The male praying mantis cannot copulate while its head is attached to its body. The female initiates sex by ripping the male's head off. (Honey, I'm home... WTF?!)

• A flea can jump 350 times its body length. It's like a human jumping the length of a football field. (30 minutes . . . lucky pig! Can you imagine?)

• The catfish has over 27,000 taste buds. (What could be so tasty on the bottom of a pond?)

• Butterflies taste with their feet. (Something I always wanted to know. NOT!)

• Some lions mate over 50 times a day. (I still want to be a pig in my next life. Quality over quantity.)
  

• A cat's urine glows under a black light. (I wonder who was paid to figure that out?)

• Humans & dolphins are the only species that have sex for pleasure. (What about that pig????)
  

• The strongest muscle in the body is the tongue. (Ok then i'd like to see my tongue bench 250)

If You Want To Do Nothing.... Make Sure Your In The Right Position

Lesson 4

An eagle was sitting on a tree resting, doing nothing.

A small rabbit saw the eagle and asked him, 'Can I also sit like you and do nothing?'
The eagle answered: 'Sure, why not.'

So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the eagle and rested. All of a sudden, a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit and ate it.

Moral of the story:
To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high up.
