As stated at the conclusion of yesterday’s post, today’s will further our discussion of horses. I figure the timing of selecting horses as a blog post topic is rather fitting with the recent occurrence of the Kentucky Derby, and I also figure that because they’re such incredible beasts, they deserve some recognition. When my sister … More How much do you know about horses? (part two)
Upon the completion of my three-part chicken series, as absurd as that sounds, I found myself considering what other sorts of critters I could dedicate a post to. I’ve covered a number of creatures at this point, but I was a little disappointed with myself when I realized I hadn’t yet offered up the tremendous … More How much do you know about horses? (part one)
Yesterday’s post introduced all of you to a curious creature known as the fossa. That is, unless, you’re far more cultured than me and had already heard of them, in which case, good for you, David Suzuki. I’m not bitter. Anyways, today’s post will continue our discussion of the fossa in hopes of educating anyone … More What the heck is a fossa? (part two)
When I first caught wind of an animal known as a fossa, I’ll admit I had my doubts. I certainly was not savvy with these creatures prior to reading about them to compose this post, and to be completely transparent, I Googled ‘cool animals’ to see what came up as inspiration for this post, and … More What the heck is a fossa?
I know, I know. The audacity I have to get that forsaken tune stuck in your head for not only one day, but two. I plead the fifth; however, writing a blog post about foxes does deserve such a fitting title, and considering I don’t plan on writing about them for an extended duration of … More What does the fox say? Part two
It’s only fair to write a post regarding giraffes considering how Blaine inspired my recent posts discussing zebras. When Blaine recommended writing about zebras, our friend, Nic, was with us. He wholeheartedly supported the idea of dedicating a few posts to the topic of zebras, and he, like Blaine, also had a suggestion – giraffes. … More Let’s talk about giraffes
I really wasn’t sure what I was going to write about for today’s post. I was contemplating for some time and then I figured I would ask Blaine as he often comes up with some pretty interesting ideas. Upon asking Blaine for some blog topic inspiration, he suggested zebras, and here we are. His specific … More Let’s chat about zebras
I think it is safe to say that I’ve been on a bit of an animal roll as of late, but I’m quite content covering this material. Animals are truly wonderful beings, and I think more of us could benefit from learning about specific creatures from time to time to broaden our minds and knowledge … More Get your pig on
Horses are animals I have always had a deep level of respect and admiration for. My appreciation for these beasts arguably stems from my familiarity with them; both my sister and I rode horses competitively when we were younger. My sister rode for about 15 years and showed Western, whereas I rode for I think … More How well do you know horses?
Beavers have been in my life ever since I was a child. Perhaps I should stipulate that, for the sake of this post, when I say beaver, I’m making reference to the animal. Not the other version of a beaver. Moving on. Our irrigation ponds on the farm are home to beavers, some more than … More Let’s hear it for beavers
We’re all relatively aware that our world and the environment is going (or, in some cases, has gone) to poop. Some are more aware than others, but a recent Phys.org article outlining findings from Aarhaus University has me questioning just how aware we really are. The article explains how us humans are abolishing animal and … More Bad news: mammals literally can’t evolve fast enough to avoid extinction
