Did you know that it's a rodent? :crazy: (the question is not meant directly to Mares) |
Quite the contrary, Panthera; I am all about zoology and the natural world.
You are correct, the pic I posted is of a Jaguarundi. They appear in a wide variety of color phases from black to dusty tan, so I used one with a ticked coat to have a happy medium. |
That's nice.. :) I didn't think someone would post a picture that would make me have to look, but it's apparent that there are other persons on this forum that shares my interest, and thats great, makes the game challengin' for everyone... :)
I was just going to edit my post once again to say that the Capybara also is a rodent(actually the biggest rodent in the world), a fact that I didn't know until now.. I've always thought it was a little hippo.. :crazy: |

Relative to Camels, pigs and deer, you got to be kidding me.. Now I wanna go and read about all animals just to learn what other stange things there's out there.. Try to guess where I got my name? |
I found a website that says they are relatives of camels, pigs and deer. That doesn't make sense to me as camels and deer are ruminants (have 3-4 'stomachs') and pigs just have one stomach. :confused: It would make sense given their diet that they are ruminants.

EDIT: Rhinos belong to the same group of animals as horses; both are "odd-toed ungulates", or Perissodactyla. Elephants belong to the Proboscidea order, where there are no other living animals other than the Elephant, so the Elephants arn't in family with any living animal.. |

If you're so inclined, here's a article on comparitive anatomy of the gastrointestinal tracts depending on what you eat. :) http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/c...TRY=1&SRETRY=0 There's a link to the PDF full text (I'm not sure if it'll work for you). Edit: They regurgitate their food (because it goes back up the esophagus before it reaches the glandular stomach - as opposed to vomiting [yech] where the food reaches the glandular stomach before it comes back up.) |
I have never before been so glad I was born an omnivore. :crazy:
