My brother loves Walruses and got a bank in the shape of a walrus, and calls it the "Walrus Foundation" and saves money in it for walruses...The only thing is, we don't know about any charities for walruses or sea creatures... Are there any?

In a striaght out claw to claw, paw to paw, jaw to jaw fight, who would be most likely to win? My money is on the Tiger since, not only do they defend their family like the lions, but they also go out and hunt which gives them more experience. And they seem to have more muscle mass than the Lions.

It seems to me that most dead insects are lying on their backs, with their feet up. What's the explanation for this phenomenon?

a sparrow and her mate are nesting in a potted plant outside our door. The mother is very tiny, so we were shocked to see she had laid seven eggs. It doesn't look all of those could even fit inside of her. Anyway, today when we peeked in the nest, she had rolled one of the eggs out of the nest into dirt. Is she trying to kill one of the eggs because there will be too many birds to feed? Should we return it to the nest? Should we try to raise it, if it's going to die anyway?

You hear about them but you never see them, I'm personally not convinced that the world's largest animal isn't extinct.

we live in a residential area with lots of trees and birds usually wake up and visit our roof or trees near our windows in the very early morning (like 4:30!), and we can hear them even through closed windows. unfortunately we have two young children, so white noise machines are out of the question becasue then we can't hear them when they are having problems through the night. the only thing i've been able to think of is maybe a scarecrow in the yard and on the roof? any other ideas/insights? thanks

I have recently discovered a black snake (eastern rat snake, I live in Virginia) coming in and out of a hole that is on the side of my front porch's roof. The area it enters empties out into a crawl space/attic. I've seen it in and out of this area several times, and I've heard they're harmless and help to get rid of rodents. Which is a good thing, but I'm scared to death of snakes regardless. My family and I always catch it going in and never catch it going out. Otherwise, I would just wait for it to go out and patch the hole. I was wondering if it keeps going in and out of the hole because my attic/crawlspace is its hunting ground, or did it more than likely make a home out of my attic/crawlspace? If it made a home out of my attic, will it hibernate there? Since my home is heated, would it hibernate at all if it lives in my attic? Also, the attic/crawlspace has access to my bedroom. Will the snake come into my bedroom, and if so what are the dangers/precautions?
