trivia!

I'm late for work, so this is one of those posts --
-- but I did find some really neat animal trivia for the marveling at thereof.
Example?
Q: Your pet sardine is four years old. Can you expect him to live another: (a) one year; (b) five years; or (c) 10 years?
A: Assuming he’s an average sardine, he’ll live to be 14.

And I can't help but be tickled by:
Croc Truth: You can shoot a crocodile all day long with a .22 and he won’t even slow down. It takes at least a .45.

We're wondering who did the research for the bit about the croc.

No kidding. Wonder how THAT turned out in testing phases!

No sardine would get past its first birthday in my house!

We guess that is why research scientists always have a couple of assistants around. ;-)
