May 9, 2012 - It is well known by farmers in Australia that if you put a stick, a shovel, a rake or similar up to your shoulder and aim it at them they will just sit in the tree and look at you. But if you walk out of the house or the barn with a rifle in your hand they are gone before you get a chance to aim it.

Feb 11, 2012 - This isn't simply tool use, it's INVENTING and CREATING a tool. On the spot. Improvising. This is pretty darn intelligent.

May 29, 2011 - @Ptichka24: The average 4 year old AMERICAN. Very important detail. (Really, here it's getting worse every day too.) That's what one gets for investing all the money in wars for private companies, and none for education. And making it not OK to call an idiot an idiot, but totally OK to insult and hate smart people.

Dec 21, 2010 - i keep a bowl of hard cat biscuits for my cat on my back deck, i have seen magpie birds pick up a few cat biscuits in their beak and then drop the biscuits in to the bowl of water and wait for the biscuits to swell and become soft,then they feed the soft biscuits to the young magpies.

Nov 7, 2010 - And scientist are marveling about finding the oldest axe known, about 35,000. If the first human couldn't figure out how to make an axe then humans never were at the top of the evolutionary heap and never will be. Pride cometh before a fall, Einstein.
