Zoology - August 2006

I'm reading an article about blue whales and it mentions they can "grow longer than 30 meters." I'm comparing this to my house which is 72 feet long (28 feet short or so of a large blue). But how tall would the whale be? Would it be taller than my 16 foot tall house?

I have been finding these bugs everywhere. They come in the house at night. They are about 1/2 to 3/4 each long.

Q. What came first: the chicken or the egg?
A. The egg...because dinosaurs were laying eggs way before chickens came about...
Do they mean "egg" in general? Or do they mean...did the chicken egg come before the chicken?

Quite a stumper, if you ask me.
Please give your opinion on this one.
Much Thanks

Each year billions of animals of all types are captured from the wild and sold in the wildlife trade. Commercial uses of wildlife can be divided into the trade in wildlife parts and products and the trade in live wildlife. The trade in wildlife parts and products includes exotic leathers and fur (elephant skin boots, kangaroo skin soccer balls, cat, fox and coyote fur coats, ostrich skin boots, bird feather apparel, snake and lizard skin shoes, crocodile and alligator shoes and purses, eel skin purses and shark skin shoes), ornamental objects (elephant ivory jewelry, sea turtle shell cases, snail shells, matted butterflies), food (monkey and ape bushmeat, turtle soup, frog legs, bear paws, fish, lobsters, crabs, shrimp, clams and oysters), and traditional medicine (tiger bones, rhinoceros horns, deer antlers, bear gall bladders).
I believe that the time has come to stamp out the trade once and for all!!

After the discovery of the Coelacanth, a water creature thought to be extinct 400 million years ago, do you believe that Loch Ness in Scotland holds a mythical creature, thought to be a Plesiosaur. Without concrete proof that this creature exists in Loch Ness or not, what do you beleive? Fact Or Fiction?

There is an absolutely dogmatic insistence in evolutionary texts that early humans simply had to arise from Africa. Why is that and who was the theorist that got this bandwagon rolling?

I mean why some people feel sorry for the death of rabbits, dogs, cats etc.
they are simple animals that dont contribute to the bio-diversity that much

unlike complex organisms that have camouflage, agility and other impressive defense mechanisms...and there are those that share symbiotic relationships

My cat killed a black snake, approximately 9 inches long, with a large pale stripe behind its head, faint whitish markings that look like inverted "V"s, and a grayish underbelly that appears to resemble the limited collection of pictures of Philippine snakes. That or a tree snake. Really would like direction to a better catalog of snakes here in the PI.
