They say it looks like Mick Jagger, but I think it could be the love child of Michael Jackson and Julia Roberts.

It is actually a dog but has a pouch for its young like most Australian animals

I could have put a pic of a Platypus, being totally the weirdest animal alive but I'm sure you have all heard/seen one.

I read somewhere that most zoo's are not allowed to have swine as it is possible to transmit diseases to live stock pigs?

I also saw the Old West TV series on the history channel with David Caradine and he talked about how out west pigs ran wild and would strip the flesh off people in minutes. They would throw people/corpses to the pigs

Hey that is a great song and a fantastic video.

Ironically speaking of killing all humans Tasmania where the last of the Tigers lived is also one of the only true cases of total genocide Where all of the Tasmanian Aborigines were all either killed by Europeans or the diseases that they brought with them. They are extinct.
