The Common Wren

This is a wren. Wrens are small passerine birds living pretty much all over the world. They eat insects and sing chirpy songs with no lyrics. They are plentiful and mostly inconspicuous.

If you look out your kitchen window right now, you will find one sitting quietly on a branch outside thinking about how it wants to tear the flesh off your face use your hair for its nest.

EASTER IS COMING!

May Jesus save our souls.

Charlie and the Seal!

Here is a fun video of Irish journalist Charlie Bird frolicking with baby elephant seals!

Sadly, they ate him shortly after this scene.

WTFish?

Okay, God. I get this. Great job.



 But could You please explain this to me?




 Why? What do we do with this? Are we supposed to eat it? I don't think anyone of us are going to eat it, I mean, we named it a 'blobfish.' Are we supposed to enjoy looking at it? I don't enjoy looking at it. Please tell us what we're supposed to do with this horrible, I mean, currently misunderstood creature, and we'll get right on it. My theory? Satan put it here to question our faith in your creation abilities. (Again, if You created this, I'm sorry...we just don't get it yet.)

A North Pacific Giant Octopus Is Going to Kill Me!


Today I was given a very graphic glimpse into my future, courtesy of the twisted vision and deft illustration skills of the talented Sharon McGill at McGillustrations.

Oh well, looking forward to that scuba-diving trip next weekend.

They Want to Eat Our Pastries

In a new, clever tactic in the war against humans, this opossum broke into a bakery, gnawed through a cardboard box, ate ten or twelve delicious pastries, and then lay motionless as if it were too full to move. And then it ate the person who took this photo.

oink

Today is National Pig Day. You have been alerted!

Scary Japanese Rhinos!

Ahhhh! This is super scary! Please do not watch this if you are afraid of rhinos and/or papier-mâché!

Bears Are the Worst

The thing that you do if you see a bear: Wish you hadn't.

You can't get away from a bear. They can run really fast, and they can climb trees. So...aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!

High Score

Everyone knows that frogs are one of our fiercest predators and also notoriously untrustworthy. Which is why we here at they want to kill us were not suprised at all at the outcome of this ill-advised game of lick-the-iPhone.

Ok, maybe a little surprised.
