According to the local meteorologists, it has something to do with the drought. (Anyone who wants to set me straight on that, please do). Driving on 1604 in San Antonio, they are EVERYWHERE! I had to keep turning on my windshield wipers and washing smashed butterfly bodies off the windshield. Everywhere I go, they are fluttering about in great flocks...or herds...or swarms...or whatever you call a large group of butterflies. Really, it's kind of neat to see them. I'm surprised the birds aren't fatter.

Anyway...just curious. I was wondering if the rest of Texas or other parts of the U.S. were experiencing this butterfly phenomenon.

Not soft-shelled turtles like the leatherback turtle. Is it the Galapagos turtle?

Where I live in Northern Ontario, Canada there is a huge flock of crows that nest in a big colony starting in the spring and lasting all summer long, then they break up in winter. I have looked up information but there is no mention of this behaviour, and no they are not rooks they are Common Crows and they all nest in one spot near where I live and they fly out in the morning and back at night. I am just wondering if anyone has seen this before and if you can direct me to more information about this behaviour..

This video shocked me, beware it is very graphic- but I think it is crucial that we know what animals go through before being slaughtered. What can be done to prevent this from happening? I am not stating we should all become vegetarians but these poor animals should be treated more humanely. Perhaps all us meat eaters should come together and avoid eating meat even for only one day so these inhumane and greedy people get the message. Something needs to be done, it is horrific!
Please watch but beware it may shock you, if you are bothered by too graphic videos do not watch but we need to to know what is going on before we eat our next steak and nuggets.

I seen on Animal Planet that the hyenas can digest bones from it's prey because of the highly concentrated hydrochloric acid in it's stomach. Is the lining of it's stomach stonger than bone? Or how is this possible?

I was at desert storm conflict, and we were in the middle of the dessert and no flies were seen, until we start eating food.

This is very random...just wondering whether you can take a house cat like a persian or a maine coon or something, and artificially inseminate a lion/tiger ??

Mine is the polar bear because it is a supreme hunter on one of the most inhospitable places on earth. And it's really cute to look at.

Considering mammals are so close to us biologically, do you think they (dogs, cats, horses, cows, pigs, etc.) are capable of having the gamut of emotions that characterize human beings (jealousy, envy, shame, guilt, happiness, joy, anger, sadness, etc.)?
