I thought all spiders were carnivorous but we have an example of a mainly herbivorous one. Gandhi of Arachnids "Around 40 or 50 spider species have been documented drinking nectar, but this is the first case where a spider has been shown to survive on plant matter," says Ken Whitney of Rice University in Houston, Texas. A vegetarian diet may also encourage the typically territorial spiders to cooperate, says Meehan, who has seen hundreds gathering on on ...Sun, 15 Nov 2009 18:07:41 -0600http://www.book-of-thoth.com/ftopicp-246564.html#p246564 http://www.book-of-thoth.com/ftopicp-246398.html#p246398 I agree that spiders are fascinating creatures. It's amazing though how amber has given us such clear glimpses into the distant past. I'd like to see more on that particular subject as well. But, this article you've shared with us Lonecat, gives us even more to explore in regards to what may yet to be discovered within the confines of this precious material.

That hook on the end of its bill looks pretty destructive.

We see here how bipedal movement was very close to developing into quadrupedalism in this animal. As far as we know, our ancestors were quadrupedal & cetaceans were once land dwelling. There are countless fish environments with even more varieties of fish but they are all paired up specifically. We can move species to different environments if they have similar enough ecosystems.

Perfectly suited for their environment. I liked these couple of lines attributed to Amos: 'I explain that they must not encroach on the seal's space and not to provoke it into any unwanted action.' Even though Amos has dived with Great Whites and photographed polar bears from three feet away, he is always in awe of the leopard seal.

I was fortunate enought to see it without interference and with terrific sound. It's about a fossil skull of a pliosaur found on Britain's Jurassic coast.

Of course, the male is cool looking also. I never thought about getting larger to have a greater population growth.

I was very pleased with what I saw – which was nothing. Not only was the Cove empty of any dolphins, there were also no signs of any activity to set up the dolphin hunt – for example, nets used to close off the Cove once the dolphins are driven in were not set in place ready to be deployed. All the dolphin drive boats depicted i ...Tue, 06 Oct 2009 06:28:03 -0500http://www.book-of-thoth.com/ftopicp-242582.html#p242582 http://www.book-of-thoth.com/ftopicp-242392.html#p242392 PNG is definitely the land that time forgot.

One evening I took my then girlfriend into the city for a 21st birthday, we left Hans in the front of the pickup with the window wound down slightly. after about an hour I said to my girl, lets go check on Hans and let him out for a pee.... when we got to the car Hans was very excited to see us.... more excited than I had ever seen him... he was behavin ...Fri, 02 Oct 2009 23:05:58 -0500http://www.book-of-thoth.com/ftopicp-242369.html#p242369
