My marine biology class watched a national geographic video on whaling. It was shown that SONAR could kill whales, causing tumors in the brain and other things of that nature. I missed the second day of watching the video where it said the methods used to determine the effects. I know they performed autopsies, however I do not know what tool they used. Anyone know?

according to the kjv pre-christian palestine was swarming with them (deut: 33:17; psalms 22:21 - lots of other places).

there aren't any unicorns in israel now (they'd be on the discovery channel if they were), not even any stuffed unicorns or unicorn skeletons.

did they evolve into a different species?

i always wonder what it'd happen if you inject anti-venom into the specific venomous creatures. for instant, if you inject anti-venom that is specifically for cobra's venom into a cobra, would the cobra become venomless or die?

Since they've been around for millions of years you'd think thats where they would start.

How do fish evolve into man made canal and lakes? Are they put in there by man himself or do they grow from bacteria?

In the morning of Japan sometimes you can hear a bug buzzing as if it were the wake up call like a rooster here in the US. Is it some kind of beetle?

Hi All

This year we seem, here in SW Ireland, to have been plagued by loads more flies than usual. Flies of all types, large and small! But a lot of them left patches of black speckles on things (lampshades, windowsills, floor, ceiling, you name it!). I take it this is them sicking up; anyone have any knowledge of this phenomena? Is it some kind of regurgitation? Or is it faeces. It's really tarry, if it dries hard is difficult to get off.

I'd love some proper David Attenborough info on this!

Thanks in advance.

I think heard is the collective noun for pigs, but dont think it would apply to hedgehogs. Grunt or snuffle might be more appropriate
