[Laugh] I can assure one and all that possum and armadillo do not, in any way, taste like chicken Wendy W.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Squeak 17 #78 August 15, 2003 QuoteQuoteThey already have Koala BEARs dont exsist. A KOALA IS A MARSUPIAL< NOT A FRIGGEN BEAR It is a bear. In my home language it is called a "Koalabeer" which translates as Koala bear. What's more, it looks like a bear. And they do exist. Ever seen one of these? (from the above) "The drop bear, or Pangkala as its known as by the aborigenies, is smilar to the koala. It has the same basic shap of the koala except it is about 8 foot tall, it has a lethery back-side, long razor sharpe claws and has 40cm long incisor teeth. The drop bear hunts by sitting in a tree until a victim walks under it. The drop bear would then fall out of the tree onto its victim, breaking its neck. If the drop bear misses it would them use its long claws to kill the victim. The drop Bear hunts in packs, with upto 4 bears in one tree at a time! Once the victim has been killed the rest of the bears would then fall and fight over the kill. These fights can be made up of upto 30 bears." Hope you don't get drop-beared! At the risk of making myself look silly Since there was no or evenA Drop bear is as real as Kangaroo feathers We often have them falling from city building on unsuspecting tourists And as for your home language well it's just plain WRONGYou are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky) My Life ROCKS!

meatmissile 0 #81 August 17, 2003 QuoteSince there was no or even in your thread I'm going to make the assumtion that you read the page you linked and think it's serious. I did not take it seriously at all, had a pretty good laugh at the page though. Well, SkyAnt above may be only partly in jest as well about the rucksack - some people may be very disappointed to find out that the drop bear is only a myth. We have another really terrifying animal here in Africa though, it is known as the long-drop constrictor. Hope you never cross paths with one of those ! -- ZZZzzzz....

turtlespeed 220 #82 August 18, 2003 Something about the Drop Constrictor did happen here in the US last winter....a camper was in search of somewhere to "relieve" himself at the same time tyhe constrictor was searching for food and dropped right on the unsuspecting camper...scientists don't know how it got here, but are amazed at it's ability to reproduce. Local Forest Rangers are trying to exterminate the spiecies that are taking hommage in the woods, but Green peace representatives, showing up to a protest had tamed a few of them and had them wrapped around thier bodies like pets.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
