We had a fire ant nest start here at one time, and they really do hurt when they sting you.
I tried to kill them, but nothing worked till i dug up the nest, and fire bombed it.
Never had them again after that thankfully.

How Wolves Change Rivers

Post: # 76712Unread post Gary Oak »

It seems like wolves may have been a part of an intelligent design plan.

Oarfish, including the 36-foot-long (11 meters) giant oarfish (Regalecus glesne), normally elude human eyes in the depths of the oceans. However, a lucky group of tourists recently filmed two oarfish in the shallow, coastal waters of Baja, Mexico. The oarfish observers were kayaking as part of a cruise with the Shedd Aquarium.

Oarfish live around the globe in temperate and tropical waters, down to 3,000 feet (915 meters) below the waves. Yet, despite the fishes' wide distribution, oceanographers and other humans rarely glimpse the four known species of oarfish in the deep sea habitat they prefer.

Most encounters with oarfish occur when the animals wash up dead on the beach, or sick in the shallows. The health of the oarfish filmed on the Baja coast was unknown. Last year, a dead 18-foot oarfish was towed to shore by a snorkeler at Catalina Island off the California coast. Then a 14-foot oarfish corpse turned up north of San Diego a few days later. The bigger fish was filled with parasites, reported Live Science, while the smaller fish was filled with hundreds of thousands of eggs, reported the AP.

The giant oarfish sets the world record for largest bony fish, according to the Florida Museum of Natural History. Whale sharks and basking sharks beat them for the title of world's longest fish, though the sharks have cartilage skeletons. Oarfish maintain their scale-less, silver, ribbon-like bodies by eating tiny zooplankton and small squid, shrimp and fish. The jelly-like meat of the oarfish has little commercial value.

Myth holds that the appearance of oarfish heralds an earthquake. There may be some scientific basis for the observation of oarfish around the time of earthquakes, though nothing has been proven.

I have seen a few green animals on the internet, and one of our Husky pups was a bit green but not for long.
