Animal Meme

I was tagged by Kate to play a kind of get-to-know-you game bloggers play. We call them memes. The idea for this one is to talk about the way you have interacted with animals. In participating, you provide a personal side to your posts. My answers are brief - hopefully they will inspire your imaginations.

An interesting animal I had as a pet:

Aquasaurs. Basically, these are sea-monkeys on crack.
Triops sauncauditus

An interesting animal I ate:

Why be kingdom-centric?

Protist: Kelp
Animal: Jellyfish
Fungi: Chanterelles
Plant: Marigolds
Monera: Salmonella

An interesting animal in the Museum:

Jackalope. Does Wall Drug count as a museum?

An interesting thing I did with or to an animal:

I embedded an entire rat liver in paraffin wax. It's now in my living room.

An interesting animal in its natural habitat:

Coyote. Natural habitat in this case is the ravine behind my apartment. Coyotes are awesome. And ferocious.

I tag Bunnies with Sharp Teeth, Dear Science, and My Sister. Ready, GO!!!
