Every so often I come across a random photo or drawing on the internet that amuses or horrifies me. Or if I’m lucky it makes me wonder what on earth is going on. This is a round up of three that I’ve come across this week. Enjoy?
The first came in my daily email from Fab.com. I’m sure they thought they were being funny. It really failed.

Also? The Flintstones hairdo is not something I’d think of as comfy. I bet it took hot rollers and half a bottle of hairspray to get that prehistoric look. At least, it would for me.
Anyway, moving on. I came across this photo and I just LOVED it. I work with a lot of different animals and if I had the chance to examine this little guy in real life I’d jump at it.

I think this is just the coolest thing. There are apparently more than 100 species of these things living in South America. I don’t know which particular species this one is, but I think it is SO neat. The idea that there is some sort of evolutionary advantage to this is just awesome.
And last, but not least, a little humor for you. If only nature actually worked this way. Then again, we don’t know for sure that it doesn’t.

If only manatees actually lived in Loch Ness, then we might have an answer. Anyway, that’s all for this week. Enjoy.

Yes, but I like actual scientific cryptozoology, like the giant squid (which they finally got on film!) and the coelecanth. Bigfoot and Nessie? Not so much.
