"<span style="font-weight:bold;">All of a sudden I felt something on my back and shoulders, scratching</span>," McDonald said.<br /><br />McDonald said the day after he was attacked he saw a neighbor <span style="font-weight:bold;">battling a gray squirrel</span>. He later learned that another person on the street had also been attacked.<br /><br />One possibility is that the squirrel was raised by humans and then released into the wild. "They've lost their fear of people and they go ballistic (when they encounter a person) because it's not their human," Johnson said. Another possibility is that the squirrel suffered some sort of injury.<br /><br />"The take-home message is don't try to take care of wildlife because it's very hard to return them to the wild," Johnson said.

Petty and foolish, prone to ugly prejudices, poor life choices, and generally calamitous idiocy. Such is the crow-black thesis of David Sedaris' seventh collection, Squirrel Seeks Chipmunk, in which the humorist, long a droll chronicler of human foibles, turns his absurdist wit and opposable thumbs to fables of the feathered and four-legged.<br /><br />The entries in his lurid bestiary may be brief — few exceed a dozen or so large-font pages apiece, including Ian Falconer's witty illustrations — but they are clearly not meant for children. (Unless, perhaps, your child is a tiny, sadistic Quentin Tarantino in training.) Gooey viscera aside, Squirrel's anthropomorphized critters are adult in the most banal ways: They visit the hairdresser and go out for Chinese food, take their coffee black and attend 12-step meetings. In ''The Faithful Setter,'' an Irish hound endures his mutt wife's ill-bred insecurities; in ''The Parenting Storks,'' a monstrously self-absorbed bird makes Joan Crawford look like a model of sweet maternity. These louse-y, lousy creatures invariably meet bad ends, in ways far more graphic and grisly than anything Edward Gorey ever imagined for his young charges. Only the final story, ''The Grieving Owl,'' offers a hint of a happily-ever-after — and even that involves (no joke) a rabble of singing, anus-dwelling leeches.<br /><br />Some Sedaris fans felt he had begun to exhaust his store of Homo sapiens-based anecdotes in 2008's When You Are Engulfed in Flames, and Squirrel does seem to free him creatively, while still indulging his singularly skewed worldview. (Who else would invent a strung-out mink selling his own pelt for booze?) And for the strong- stomached, these tales are toxic little treats, fun-size Snickers bars with a nougaty strychnine center. But at $21.99 for a scant 159 illustrated pages, Squirrel doesn't quite make a meal.Jellyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02865732236922830562noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4083741652610246839.post-6835967653845410692010-09-16T09:02:00.001-05:002010-09-16T09:02:51.411-05:00<object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/TBb7gdF2Gf4?fs=1&hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/TBb7gdF2Gf4?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>Jellyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02865732236922830562noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4083741652610246839.post-86275913890291914882010-09-09T15:31:00.002-05:002010-09-09T15:34:50.840-05:00Terror Babies!!!

On the other hand, male macaques – some of whom give chase and even attack a harmless rodent – might be trying to impress females in their troop. <br /><br />Although this tough-guy motive was not proved in a new study, "it is possible that adult or sub-adult male monkeys may be 'showing off' their fitness" as potential mates, said Kenji Onishi, an assistant professor of behavioral sciences at Osaka University and lead author of the paper being published in the current issue of the journal Primate Research. <br /><br />Biologists and psychologists have long studied macaques' complex social interactions for insights into human evolution and behavior. <br /><br />However, much remains unknown about how macaques get along (or not) with other creatures. Better documentation of such encounters could reveal more about macaque societies as well as that of our shared primate forbearers. <br /><br />"Human evolution occurred alongside primate evolution from a common mammalian ancestor," Onishi told LiveScience. "Therefore, it is important to learn the evolution of primates in understanding the previous steps in human evolution." <br /><br />Intruder alert! <br /><br />When Japanese giant flying squirrels glided over to a tree in the monkeys' vicinity, adults and adolescent macaques started hollering at it threateningly, the researchers report. Young macaques screamed and mothers scooped up their infants, while adults and high-ranking males in particular went and physically harassed the offending squirrel. <br /><br />Onishi said other researchers have observed macaques responding in a similarly aggressive manner to birds that prey on the monkeys, such as the golden eagle and mountain hawk eagle. These raptors glide and swoop much like the flying squirrels. <br /><br />Upon closer inspection up in a tree or on the ground, however, the squirrel is clearly no bird of prey. Yet the animal still raises the hackles of the macaques. <br /><br />Other woodland creatures, including hares, deer and wild boars, barely elicit a response from macaque groups, said Onishi, though dogs and people will sometimes instigate alarm calls and a fleeing from the immediate area. <br /><br />Meet the macaques <br /><br />After humans, macaques are the most geographically dispersed primate on the planet, living across southern Asia and into North Africa. The rhesus macaque is also perhaps the most familiar monkey to Westerners, common both in zoos and as lab animals. <br /><br />The Japanese macaques in the study are well-known for a group of them that hang out every winter in the Jacuzzi-like Jigokudani hot springs when it gets too cold and snowy outside (no wonder the species is also nicknamed "snow monkey"). <br /><br />The adult male Japanese macaques range in size from about 20 to 24 inches (50 to 60 centimeters) tall and females about 19 to 22 inches (4.8 to 5.5 centimeters). <br /><br />This gives the monkeys a clear size advantage over their flying squirrel antagonists, if one does not count the squirrels' tails. The squirrels documented in the study were typical for their kind, about 12 to 15 inches (30 to 40 cm) long and with a bushy tail of about equal length. <br /><br />Show of (non)force? <br /><br />When chasing macaques did succeed in getting close to these infringing squirrels, the monkeys tended to look on "in fear and hesitated to attack," Onishi said. <br /><br />In rare instances when the bolder monkeys did physically assault their quarry, Onishi said the squirrels were neither harmed nor eaten and eventually escaped. <br /><br />Though clearly not interested in eating each other, the diets of the animals do cross when it comes to fruits, nuts and other delectables. But a territorial defense of food resources is not the motive of these militant monkeys, as there are "low levels of food competition between macaques and the squirrels," Onishi noted <br /><br />It is more likely that a simple misunderstanding about the squirrels' nature underpins the melee. <br /><br />Mewa Singh, a professor of psychology at the University of Mysore in India who has studied macaques, pointed out that the flying squirrels are generally nocturnal, whereas the monkeys are active during the day. <br /><br />"The interactions between monkeys and a flying squirrel, therefore, are not expected to be frequent and the monkeys may not "know" whether the squirrel is a predator or not," said Singh, who was not involved in the study. <br /><br />All in the game <br /><br />Nevertheless, the fact that adult males had a greater tendency to be the ones beleaguering the flying squirrels led Onishi and his co-authors to speculate that a measure of flaunting biological fitness to the females is in play. <br /><br />At the same time, a generic "battle stations!" response to raptor-like behaviors from any sort of animal, whether featured like a bird or not, might prime the macaques for when real danger glides into town. <br /><br />This hair-trigger might increase the possibility that macaques in the troop "survive when true predatory threats emerge," Onishi said.Jellyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02865732236922830562noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4083741652610246839.post-32730217826101286272010-07-28T11:56:00.001-05:002010-07-28T11:57:18.438-05:00Chewbacca fighting nazis while riding a giant squirrel<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuYuH08A3HlgdKLrZXvJ1i95z1c-k4MpzCZjhCoyRavdM7kQajL6sQkTkKUImHGqaqVME51eN5MyrsQBCHYS40PgGQc_C2AGMDV2K-fCdVglhiDX-v9-InQn823WtgBejiHQnA3aMiPMU/s1600/chewy_comission_fur_on_fur_by_gamefan84.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 309px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjuYuH08A3HlgdKLrZXvJ1i95z1c-k4MpzCZjhCoyRavdM7kQajL6sQkTkKUImHGqaqVME51eN5MyrsQBCHYS40PgGQc_C2AGMDV2K-fCdVglhiDX-v9-InQn823WtgBejiHQnA3aMiPMU/s400/chewy_comission_fur_on_fur_by_gamefan84.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5499002230119429538" /></a><br /><a href="http://gamefan84.deviantart.com/art/chewy-comission-fur-on-fur-172151625">chewy comission fur on fur by *gamefan84 on deviantART</a>MetaHipsterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10665480636954651453noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4083741652610246839.post-58227568250172290562010-07-22T11:56:00.004-05:002010-07-22T11:58:28.395-05:00BrewDog’s beer now stuffed inside of roadkill<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_BSfyioJB3DU/TEh4WpNhEdI/AAAAAAAACR8/v5L4AnlifL8/s1600/squirrel.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 365px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_BSfyioJB3DU/TEh4WpNhEdI/AAAAAAAACR8/v5L4AnlifL8/s400/squirrel.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5496775675620692434" /></a><br />If Scottish beer isn’t enough to make you feel excessively manly, Scottish beer jammed inside of a dead animal should do the trick. BrewDog’s absolute most expensive beer “The End of the World” is now featured inside of an animal. Obviously the animal has been put through the entire taxidermy process before the beer bottle was jammed into their insides. You can keep a look out for these, but each bottle will cost you $762 on up to $1,067.Jellyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02865732236922830562noreply@blogger.com0
