Animal Magic

[AustrianAndyGull]

What is your favourite wild animal and why?

Mine are whales. Absolutely immense creatures that (some) filter plankton through baleen to survive. Unbelievable something that humongous can live from something so small.

I thought we were a nation of animal lovers?

Well I have an opinion so i'm happy at that.

Thing is Andy, most people sort of grow out of having "favourite" things as they get older. I wouldn't kick a squirrel in the face, but I wouldn't do that to a dog either. Not sure if this tells us anything meaningful...

Totally get where you're coming from Matt and yes, it does actually tell me something meaningful so thanks.

[ferrarilover]

What does it tell you (I'm a bit worried now)

Matt,

[AustrianAndyGull]

Matt thanks mate but no need to worry.

Just that I haven't yet grown up in some areas and although I never want to be as sterile and dour as some folk it is not working for me to approach most things with immaturity.

Therefore I won't ask if you have purchased little spiky yet. :na:

Thread reminded me of one of my all time favourite YouTube videos. Very silly, and just the odd eight million views

I wouldn't either Matt. But I know someone who ran over one.

Have you heard the interview where he tells the squizzel story? It's absolutely brilliant.

Im going to humour you here Andy, because, why not.

I love giraffes. I literally cannot get enough of the lanky buggers. They're so tall, (which is probably part of the allure, because I'm so short :~D :~D ), and so gentle - I fed them once - they're such placid, docile creatures, mill about, eat some grass, make a right palavar of bending down to have a drink, what's not to like?

[Glostergull]

Oh damn it I can't remain silent any longer. I love Tables. Tables. Got it, Tables. They are way more useful than most animals, especially cats.

No I didn't. Is there a replay anywhere?

[ferrarilover]

I'll find it on the BBC website for you now, Andy...

not sure about a favourite, i care about, respect, and admire many animals, particular fantastic and interesting wild ones are lions, tigers, wolves, horses, orangutans, chimpanzees and gorillas, i cant pick a fave. certain sea animals deserve a huge amount of respect and admiration also, seals are cool, likewise penguins, whales, dolphins etc.
