I like me the monkey, especially gibbons and capuchins. I also really like to watch cranes and egrets. What about y’all?

octopus spiders and snakes are incredible as far as their methods of killing. its just awesome simply put. still i cant get over the freedom and grace of birds. ill go with peregrine falcon for its speed and the fact that its a bird. shame its endangered though.

I like platapii and electric eels. Electric eels especially fascinate me with their ability to generate large currents of electricity with an internal organ, and are immune to the shock. Scientists still have not figured out how these organs produce the electrical current, and how the fish (they really aren’t eels) are immune to it.

thats pretty much the same reason i like spiders. the silk is awesome and just their hunting technique is really cool.

You know, i don’t think she’s ever shown an interest in pancakes.

How about roast duck?

Although she might like Peking. I have a suspicion she’s communist. Not only does she mention Mao, but she seems to think the food on my dinner plate is public property.
