Thylacoleo


Discovery Kids on with animated cavemen and dinosaurs...there's gotta be a lot of work to making those films!


Thought about today the hole in the Australian outback that has been swallowing animals for thousands and thousands of years...kindof the same trap thing as the La Brea Tar pits...brb...

In 2002, a remarkably complete skeleton of T. carnifex was discovered in a limestone cave under Nullarbor Plain, where the animal fell to its death through a narrow opening in the plain above.[5]

The show brought up the possibility that ancient people burned grasslands and changed the ecosystems in such a way that the 'mega fauna' went extinct...this along with hunting too...


Everyone is kinda desperate to find an idea of why these animals went extinct in that ten thousand years ago window!...


Bats were on Charlie Rose last nite...they're in trouble like the Bees it seems...I haven't been bit by a mosquito yet...dont know when they're supposed to show up..brb..still dont...but got the name...Culex Tarsalis....
Well...I recalled my Mormon friend's tale of a hole in the ground in Mexico from which hellish sounds emerged...thought to find it with a search...but it's kinda scary!...and "underground" again I thought to look up something I skipped: "secret underground cities"...which promptly froze up the browser page!...but I'll go off awhile on that!...and post this...
