I've heard that the Washington Zoo is in pandamonium.
Guess they'd better stock up on bamboo.

Cow-Size Pre-Reptile May Have Been First Animal to Walk on Four Legs
Cowabunga!
Don't have a cow, man.
Where's the beef?
OTOH, that thing doesn't really look at all like a cow.
Wonder if it tastes like chicken?

Saw a lizard this past weekend on my block, for first time this summer. That's after four summers of them being plentiful on the block. (Before that it was a few sightings a year if that.)

I notice that in Guardians of the Galaxy, Rocket is referred to at least once as a rodent, and at least once as a hamster. Raccoons aren't rodents, they're in the order carnivora (cats, dogs, bears, etc.), in subgroup caniform, along with bears, dogs, weasels, skunks, seals, etc.

Today there was a bear cub in a tree just outside building where I work. It was about as high as it could go in that tree, and that tree doesn't look like it would hold much more weight than that cub, if it even holds that for long. No sign of Mama bear. The cub was up there for at least several hours, and still there when I checked shortly before leaving for the day.
Hope climbing that tree wasn't a Boo-Boo. Tree does have berries of some kind, so it has a little bit of food up there, though I'd guess not much of it reachable.

Animal Planet is showing Crikey! It's the Irwins today.
Giraffe Rosie had a calf. She just stood there while it slid out, fell 7 feet, ker-plop (ouch), then turned around bent down to get some licks in.
(Oops, that may have been Discovery channel.)

Animal Planet channel showed a bunch of "Crikey It's the Irwins" today, ending with the one that documented Bindi Irwin's wedding. The guest list for that was way smaller than originally planned, what with the travel restrictions and then a restriction on how many people allowed at a wedding (just the minimum necessary, apparently). Then they had to move it indoors, because a helicopter flying overhead was scaring the animals of Australia Zoo.
