Hey look, I’m alive!

We were talking about cephalopods in invert bio the other day, and I decided I had to post a dumbo octopus on Uglorable. Now that I’m done with midterms, I’m finally going to do it.

Here is an interesting video of a frogfish eating!

I guess being Uglorable can sometimes make one an effective predator.

This is kind of impressive!

This NPR story notes how old Pierre is for a penguin:

In the wild, penguins live about 15 years; in captivity, they live to about 20. Pierre turned 25 in February.

He’s also looking a lot healthier in the video than he did in the story’s photograph:

Thanks Violet Dragon!

It’s World Tapir Day!

Treat your tapir right and give it the appreciation he or she deserves.

Ahhhhhh.

I’m taking Invertebrate Biology right now (awesome class). Today my professor lectured about rotifers, and showed us this:

I laughed so hard I almost cried.
Rotifers are the smallest metazoans, ranging from about 0.1 mm to 1 mm.

This kind of seems a little mean, but it’s kind of interesting! In this video, cuttlefish react to a live video of themselves on the monitor of a handheld video camera.

(I must say I felt intimidated!)

Via haha.nu!

Phil Demurs posted another video of the media’s coverage of his relationship with Smooshie the walrus. I think it’s the best story yet!

I haven’t seen anybody mention (although I’m sure many have) that “walrus” in French is “morse,” Polish “mors,” and in several other languages “morsa,” which I think sounds a bit like his last name, “Demers.” Phil de Morse?

WELL THIS SURE IS UGLORABLE

Thanks to Kimberly!

Sorry for the lack of updates, I’ve been really busy with my freelance work, and, well, Emi had been out of the country.

But look, I made something for you!

That’s… that’s me, by the way.
