Zoology - December 2007

Japan uses a loophole to kill whales with explosive harpoons under the guise of "scientific research" while selling the whale meat.
They are now going to target the Humpback Whale. If you think it's wrong what they are doing, you can help save the whales by signing a petition at the site below

Thanks to everyone that can help save the whales.

first time for me, I saw one feeding on a dead animal near my house, and I live in the suburbs too. I've seen dear near my house a few times, but was very surprised to see a vulcher.

Having had the experience this morning of a black scuttling horror in the shower, I wondered if this instinctive leg wobbling terror that overcomes many of us when spiders appear unbidden is confined to humans, or whether chimps react in the same way?

"there are many more species of venomous/poisonous reptiles (e.g. snakes), amphibians (e.g. poison dart frogs), and fish (e.g. stonefish). There are no species of venomous bird; however some birds are poisonous to eat or touch, such as the pitohui, the ifrita, and the rufous shrike-thrush. "

Many times, while I was out walking my dog at night (in South and Central Florida), I would come home to discover long welts across my arms or the side of my face.

Now, I did not feel anything sting or bite me while I was out, but by the time I got home, there was a burning/itching sensation and upon getting into the light, I would see the red, raised welts on my skin, anywhere from 2 to 6 inches long in a slightly curved line.

Washing them hurt and Cortisone helped a bit, but they still itched badly for days. It almost seems as if an insect dragged its stinger across my skin as it ran into me and then went on its way.

I was not in contact with any plants when these dragging stings occurred, I was walking down the middle of the road. The marks do not resemble mosquito bites at all (as I feel those immediately and they just leave one small bump on me).

Does anyone have any ideas what this mystery stinging insect could have been?
