Zoology - September 2007

I know that I have seen some animals cry out in pain, but I was wondering if shedding tears and weeping while in emotional or physical pain was a uniquely human behavior. Does anyone here know?

When I say "full body hair" I mean enough to protect us against the elements, like a horse or a cat has.

Please think before you answer that "we wear clothes" - because there had to be sometime in history when the "clothing" was not available and we would have had to survive in conditions without it. if your theory is "evolution" then also consider that during the "evolutionary process" of becoming "less hairy" - what was the purpose of shedding the hair to replace it with another animals skin or a plant fiber.

o the "temperature" of the environment doesn't work either - plenty of other mammals ( such as lions, leopards, widabeasts, kangaroos ... in extremely "hot" areas like africa, south america, australia...stilll have hair

Thanks for attempting to answer this question.

Name all the large birds for me, I don't need much info on the small ones.

And just to add onto the question ... Why do eagles, badgers, and more powerful animals tend to go after the snake ??

Are there variations of the pileated woodpecker colors here in Central Florida? Im trying to find out what kind of large woodpecker I saw on the space coast. Im pretty sure it's pileated..but...these ones in the books always look smaller and there is always a head of red feathers. The pileated woodpecker I've seen is only blue and white.

Myself I've never seen this spider with my eyes but my mother says that she always sees brown one dollar coin sized spiders with a pointed body in the early mornings. She says one just wont die because she's been hitting it for 3 days now (she identifyed it because it's missing 5 legs)! If you have a link to a picture that matches my discription please give me a link so I can show my mother if it's the right spider.

Are there any bees that can sting more than one time?
Why should it be that bees die after stinging- does it confer an advantage to the hive in some way?

it's been said that kangeroos are being overpopulated for the area and that area's vegetation is almost ruined. They want to cull the kangeroos because they are coming into urban areas, and dog has been reported to be killed by a kangeroo.

Aside from whether it is moral or not, what is so bad about it? In the ecological aspect when there are too many kangeroos or ( certain wildlife).
