Strange Things Walk This Earth
One of my recent hobbies is finding strange animals on the web. Wikipedia, by the way, is an excellent resource for that kind of pastime.
My current star is the Axolotl which can grow part of his brains back. Once again reminding me of how underprivileged we human beings are. Mediocre sight, not to mention our hearing. The only thing we got going for us is that we can walk (well, biggie), talk and invent games like curling. Which is something, but still…
As for the sense of smell or other funny things you can do with your nose, we really are nothing. Nothing at all. Because we can’t do what these guys can. Again: we’re nothing.
I’m kinda happy, though, I wasn’t born as one of those. Although you get some motherly feelings for naked mole rats because they’re just so darn ugly. Poor guys.
