What werid animals do you like or think are werid?

[horney_rabbits]

i think the baboon looks a bit werid one because it must have some type of problem with slaping its ass tou make it that <font color="red"> RED </font color> and another would be a penguin because they are short and fat and they walk funny /forums/images/icons/grin.gif

what.

I want to have a Pappillon dog... Why is that strange? Because, 1) I am a cat Person and 2) Pappillons are acually cute to me, but Papillons do support my theory of dogs being total idiots. A Pappillon a friend of mine owns is always trying to mingle with my friends cat and the cate hates it because it is such a jumpy thing.

Trouser Snakes now those are weird animals. C'mon someone had to say it.

And we're glad it was you.

Don't Forget the Platypus. It just shows you that god has a sense of humor.

That thing is beautiful. I tell you I have heard a lot of jokes about platypi, and I have seen drawings of them in animal books but I have never seen a picture of the actual thing. I think that if there were only a few of these creatures I would make a foundation to take care of these animals and make sure that they have the perfect habitat and all that Jazz.

as much bad rap as it gets for being weird (from what I've heard at least), I still say the Penguin is one of the coolest species out there.

Ray Bradbury makes a comment about the Platypus, wierd animals, and God in The Martian Chronicles also...

[Said from one priest to another]
"'And certainly we are ridiculous little animals wallowing in the fudge bowl, and God must love us all the more because we appeal to his humor.'

'I never thought of God as humorous, ' said Father Stone.

'The Creator of the platypus, the camel, the ostrich, and man? Oh, come on now!' Father Peregrine laughed."

Makes me think of Dogma.

You should apologize to all platypi enthusiats.

This needs to be bumped just for the title alone.

Tarsiers (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Bw__YkEmXm0)

I saw them when I went to Bohol, Philippines. They like little jungle fairies, only fugly. Not easy to see in the forest unless you lure them out with food. (they like grasshoppers and crickets)

[JK]

You're not supposed to feed 'em after midnight, right?

[dtcb]

never thought of that but yeah, I wouldn't take the risk. I'd guess whoever made up "gremlins" had at least seen a tarsier.

[Firestone2489]

I like rats, they aren't weird. Most people think its weird that I like them. I had a few as pets.

God has a sense of humor, or endulges in mind-altering drugs?
I second the platypus as weird-ass king of the wild.

I always argued that platypi was plural for platypus, I was recently proven wrong. It's actually platypuses. Which makes it even more rediculous.

But really, I don't know how you can top an EGG-LAYING MAMMAL, with a duckbill and poisonous f***ing quils on it's hind legs!!!

This guy gets second...

I think those are what will eventually evolve into Ewoks...

coconut crabs are hideous chuds no one should love. ive seen the smaller ones climbing the trees. I think my words word "F@king hell, what's that? Kill it! How many more are there?"

I was told you have to watch out if they are around; between them and rats chewing into coconuts and knocking them out of the tree, you could get brained. Every year 1 ro 2 people in Philippines get killed by coconuts. (60 feet of trunk+coconut=crushedskull)

course; they are considered a delicacy.....shudder!
