Save the Mountain Walrus

Category: Humor
Posted on: March 30, 2007 8:47 PM, by Coturnix

First, there was a Tree Octopus, but now, there is an even more endangered animal - the Mountain Walrus:

Having just eaten a substantial meal, this herd will not have to hunt again for many days. For now, these mustangs are safe from the satiated walruses. Mountain walruses are carnivorous animals. They eat many species of animals, from mice to horses and elk. The cows will venture forth in small groups and hunt for the entire herd. They will bring whatever meat they were able to find back to the dens and all will partake. The younger cows are in charge of looking over the calves while the bulls protect the herd. The hunting cows can bring back enough food to last for a week before having to hunt again. They may travel as far as 10 miles to find food.

This was an April Fools joke and it seems the joke is on you because I posted it two days too early - see my last sentence as well as the first comment above.
