That's the dance that Dyson does on the bases. In the song it says "Meet me in the trap, it's going down."

The world famous Topeka zoo has 3 (three) baby tigers :love:

They also had a gazelle that killed itself by running into a gate and breaking its own neck :frown:

Poor Raul
I may actually make a trip to the topeka zoo.  My son loves tigers.

Is it worth it over going to KC and seeing big tigers?
What's cuter: tiny baby tigers that look like giant house cats and run around and wrestle with each other or a big lazy tiger that just lays there asleep? You might wait a little bit though, they just started letting them out to their outdoor enclosure.

you better take your shirt off again and keep it off this time, because if i ever see you, we're adult fighting.

maybe he doesn't know about the valuable place snakes occupy in the ecosystem.  before fighting, maybe educate him on the value snakes have to home owners in keeping disease carrying vermin populations under control.

there are stray cats everywhere.  i have a colony of mice that is important to me in the garage, so i'm not interested in attracting them closer.  in fact, if one started patrolling the yard, i'd probably kill it.

It was eating this ducks eggs that I had become thoroughly invested in :( they were like a week from hatching and the duck abandoned what was left because the snake ate over half her eggs.

Went to the in laws for a baby shower this weekend.  The family farm dog was gracious enough to kill us a raccoon and bury it under a shrub in the front yard.  Digging it up was not fun.

ok, you can put your shirt back on, we're friends.


a three foot long snake can't eat a duck egg though.

When I was in 5th grade, I was walking down the sidewalk behind a white cat, and a black cat jumped from a tree on the white cat.  The white cat was so surprised that as it was falling backwards from the ambush, pissed straight up into the air like 9 or 10 feet.  Pretty awesome to watch for a 5th grader.

Maybe bigger then? Duck nest was shoulderish height for me and I'm 6'4". Duck kept coming back to the tree and my Irish Setter kept running her off. I came out to see why she wouldn't go to her nest and came face to face with the snake. Became enveloped in guilt and took the snake out. You could even see the eggs in its belly area after I killed it.

it was a nest in a tree?  was this a wood duck?  i don't know how wood duck eggs compare to mallard eggs.  i assume a little smaller.

probably a rat snake, then.  maybe a four-footish rat snake could get down some wood duck eggs.  maybe smaller if the eggs are smaller than i'm imagining.  so not too far off.  people always overestimate snake lengths though.  you're rare in underestimating.
