Sure you could watch your cat sleeping or your TV while it was turned off, but we here at Zooillogix prefer to stare blankly at this shrew not moving for 1:16 minutes.
Thank you Philadelphia Zoo.

Bleiman Brothers Profile
In the wild, Andrew feeds on fish, sponges, small crustaceans, nematode worms and protozoans.
Benny's diet is very specialized, consisting mainly of the interior of Ramy nuts, nectar from the Traveller's Palm tree, some fungi and insect grubs. He is also known to raid coconut plantations, and has been seen eating lychees and mangoes, which are also plantation crops.

Now there's real meditation for you. Peace, man! Nirvana is just round the corner.

I kept expecting it to zoom in on its eyes and a caption to come up saying "Eyes Of A Killer!"

It didn't do "nothing," it wiggled its nose, right in the beginning.

It wiggled its nose. And it adjusted itself.
