Zoology - September 2007

Uncle Jimmy needed to take his pet wolf, chicken, and a sack of corn across a river in a boat. However he may only take one item across at a time. the problem is, if he leaves the wolf with the chicken, the wolf will eat the chicken, and if he leaves the chicken with the corn the chicken will eat the corn. He knows he is going to have to make several trips. how can he get all three items safely acroass the river?

When we find that a badger, for example, eats fruits and grubs alongside small mammals, does this mean it is a case of either or, or would the creature die if its diet was unbalanced?

They live all along the Patagonian coast, so it must be.

Also, does Chile and New Zealand have penguins?

And, does Walruses exists on the south pole?

I understand that pandas were carnivores, who evolved to be herbivores because of the availability of bamboo; however, the change seems to have been something of a mistake, since their digestive systems have not adapted well and they are still inefficient at digesting bamboo, and suffer from severe reproductive and health problems. I'm wondering if there's a parallel with the health problems caused by "artificial" diets for dogs and cats, which many pet owners claim are resolved by "natural" feeding.

Does anyone know if attempts have ever been made to return pandas their "original" diets?

I honestly enjoy the smell like some people enjoy the smell of lemons. Last year at school I asked on of my teachers about it, and she said that it could actually be that I have a defect in my brain or my sense of smell that makes me enojy the 'stench' of a skunk.
I don't know if that's true though, because I also love the smell of lemons, oranges, bubble gum, etc.

Could someone explain why I like it? XD

I understand that many British song birds live between 18 months and three years. So what happens to them when they die?

When I was a teenager some friends and I found our friends dog dead on the back-porch with a small wound in it's side. Later, my friend came over with a bug in a jar and said that's what had killed his dog. I vaguely remember him saying that it had burrowed into the dog or something?? When telling people this story my friends and I had always referred to the bug as a "cow killer", but after doing some initial research on the Velvet Ant (aka Cow Killer) I see that it is the sting of that insect which is harmful and it doesn't seem to burrow. Does anyone have any idea what this killer bug could have been? Or was my friend pulling my chain...although he did seem pretty serious! I live in SE Texas, if that's any help.

There's this thing running around my yard that I can't identify. It's gray, is slightly smaller than a squirrel, has a squirrel body and face, but a rabbit tail, and hops like a rabbit. Weirdest thing, I'm tellin ya! Anyone have any ideas what this is? I've scoured the internet for HOURS and can't find any pictures even close to this thing, though I have seen a couple other references to a "half squirrel-half rabbit" spotted in other people's back yards on some forums. Unfortunately, they didn't describe what it looks like. Thanks for the help, all!
