It's a funny ol' planet...

I was trying to google up a story from the Ambulance Driver Files, and stumbled across this headline, which was so precious I just had to share:


"Run! It's the 'bolance!"

I always thought they were cute, but I cannot imagine having a domesticated one. You can't pet it, it won't exactly jump up and give you kisses when you get home from work, and the claws can tear through anything- it would be worse than trying to keep a goat.

No doubt some old creep somewhere wants to smoke it's scales or something as a cure for inconvenient limpness.

Og, I suspect those pangolins were destined to the local Chinese Apothecary, rather than a pet shop....

Pangolins are awesome. Truly fascinating evolutionary organisms. They essentially fill the role true anteaters (from South America) do, only they do it in Africa, India, and southeast Asia.

That'll be some drooling maniac in China (or possibly Taiwan) ordering them; in their eyes the rarer, more exotic and more expensive the animal, the better.

PO-PO: Why do you have 49 pangolins in your ambulance?

Perp: Personal use, but I can quit anytime.

The armadillo from Jeff Goldstein's Proteinwisdom.com blog is probably hiding under a sofa in fear of kidnapping right now.

I could have done without the sidebar picture of the .5kg Hairball from some 12 year old girl's stomach, thankyouverymuch.
