Zoology - April 2007

if the man were using rubber flippers, and if the man wouldn't be using them....

I think humans swim faster than most "mainly-terrestial" animals: faster than lions, tigers, horses, impalas, cheetahs, velociraptors, utah-raptors, etc

even without rubber flippers, and now with fippers?

what are (or might have been) these animals speeds? and the human speed, with and without, rubber flippers??

specially for short distances....

Has anyone here seen Planet Earth, the Jungle? They show the birds of paradise, and a few species, among them the six plumed bird of paradise, dance around with what looks like just one wing. One guy spreads his wing over his head, and dances around the female, while another bobbs up and down while he makes a kind of skirt of his wing.

But what I can't figure out is, how is the wing made up? I mean,are there actually two wings, with feathers interwoven to make it look like just one? Or does this type of bird just have one wing that wraps all the way around his body?

I can't figure this one out, and all my research has led me exactly nowhere. So if anyone has the answer to this question, or an illustration of the bone structure of the wing, please let me know! Thanks!

I was in Richmond Park the other day and lots of the deer were wagging their tales. I just wondered if that was a sign they were happy, like it is with dogs.

We are close to the point of being able to buy milk, meat and other products made from cloned animals. What is everyone's thoughts on that?

The venue would be a salt water kiddy pool with enough water to cover the shark's gills.

My house seems to be infested with small black bugs - about 5mm long, 3mm wide. They look like beetles because they have hard shiny shells, but there are no visible legs or feelers. They seem to have wings, but don't fly very well - they mostly walk very very slowly. We've seen them mainly in bedrooms, on the floor or on clothes. We have a cat, but the bugs are not fleas, and we haven't had the windows open. We live in the Midwest. Does anyone know what these bugs are?
