This link came to my attention due to today’s news concerning the evolution trial going on in PA.
Who knew that colors could tell so much about a person

Well, I had posted an article on this topic earlier on (Mooore than you ever wanted to know about cows), and I thought that since there was an update on the situation that I should pass the information along. So, here is an update on those methane-emitting cows
Enjoy!
Here are a couple of links to articles I found that you might be interested in. It looks like chimpanzees may be more predatory than one would think. They also hunt for reasons other than food. Both articles are written by the same guy, so sorry if there is a ton of overlap. Hope these interest you and help you come up with some answers, and hopefully more questions.
I’m going to turn you into a biologist yet 
Chimpanzee hunting and Behavior and Human Evolution
The Predatory Behavior and Ecology of Wild Chimpanzees
This next article talks about where Oliver came from. Just read the part about Oliver the chimp and ignore the rest. I know that Oliver is an actual chimp with strange habits. However, I am unsure as to whether or not the “ape-woman” was real
A brief lesson in biology:
You might be interested to know where the term Humanzee came from. It’s like Chuman, but slightly different. Basically, it’s like the liger and tiglin (yes, these are real hybrids). The naming schema used is the following: first part of sire’s name + second part of dam’s name . A Chuman is thus a male chimpanzee crossed with a female human. Therefore, a Humanzee or Manpanzee (nope, I’m really not making this up!), is a male human crossed with a female chimpanzee.
For more information on Oliver or the Manpanzee (I think that one is my favorite!), please follow the link below.
Oh how I love Wikipedia
Well, there you have it folks. I finally posted…sort of. There were still lots of links involved, but, I have to wean myself off of them…slowly, very slowly. Hope you enjoyed today’s biology lesson. Stayed tune for more on the wonderful, mysterious world of biology
I promise I will make an actual post soon. But, in the meantime, here is another wacky biology link to fill the void.
I know, I’ve been posting weird articles all week long. Well, today is no exception. I have lots of biology feeds (in case you couldn’t tell) and I can’t help but share the really wacky ones. Some of them I post because of the great title (such as the second one below)
As always, read at your own risk. Enjoy
Is this the sneak peak into the future? Cemeteries will no longer be filled with tombstones and coffins, instead they will look like forests. So, if this is the way things will be in the future…there’s only one remaining question…
What kind of tree are you?
This is for you S.G. ! You know who you are after that little email this morning
This is my definition of an odd quirk of biology

Don’t worry, the score is still 0 to 1
This is for all you electronic geeks out there, you know who I’m talking to. Scientists have now found a way to merge my wonderful world of biology to electronics. This should really be interesting to some of you. Anyway, here’s the link.
Read on, and enjoy
Ain’t science grand…
I didn’t realize that determining who made the first noodles was so important
Don’t get me wrong, it’s quite interesting, but…we’re talking noodles here folks
