I've heard about them and just checked some more facts on wikipedia. Just as I remembered, these lizards still need a stimulus - "pseudo-copulation", i.e. one female humps anther. An interesting fact that I didn't know is that they're triploid - they don't have two (like pretty much any other animal), but three sets of chromosomes. Which explains why they don't reproduce sexually. Normally, a zygote gets half of the total number of chromosome sets from each of the parents. But you can't really do that with three sets, you'd either get gametes with a different number of sets, meaning the offspring might be di-, tri-,or tetraploid (which doesn't work within one animal species), or both gametes would only get half of one of the sets - that would be even worse.

Say whaaaa.....O_O

Every hour?!? The air in that area must be very polluted by all the ash..

The hyenas got a big laugh out of this one!

I would never gain that because I can't fight.

I can only imagine the circumstances surrounding this discovery...

This is scientifically unprovable.

The also taught her to fetch. Thats why the area is named Sarah-getty.

So much for territorialism...

I wish I had extra stomachs on my ear, so I could eat more..v😊😊

but taste delicious

Pans labyrinth flashback!

Well, considering the the bacterial load in their mouths, it must be hard to get a mate. Talk about dragon breath...

We can bring you a nice plate of lettuce

Not because they are witches? Well thanks a lot Monte Python.

what? can anybody explain me this?

like bees and ants.

Really?! Is that why they're so expensive?!

Well that's just sh!tty

So what color was orange before orange?

Considering their lack of resources and how it continues to dwindle, this doesn't surprise me. It's all about survival.

where can i hear their albums?

Everywhere humans go we destroy. SMH.

The meteorite landed just off the coast of Mexico. If it had hit deep water or land, the dinosaurs would not have been wiped out and the earth would still be the land of the dinosaurs.

not all parts of the ocean are that freakin' deep, so which one do you mean?!

Koko the famous gorilla, capable of sign language, was able to share her thoughts - amongst others- about death, about nature and friendship. I'm pretty sure she could tell the difference between Deathmetal and Mozart, then. But little do I know...

This is technically incorrect, Lobsters can repair their own DNA (by regrowing the materials that maintain it called telomerase ) there is a lot of research into it, HOWEVER nature prevents immortal crustaceans in a rather cruel way. While they can theoretically get larger and larger as time passes assuming they avoid danger and disease, eventually they get so big that to shed their old shell for the newer one to accommodate their size they aren't able to physically ingest the energy required and either die crushed in their own shell, or via the variety of issues arising from being unable to make the change due to dietary limitations. (at one point their stomach not allowing enough food to convert to the energy required to shed etc) - most however do not live to be large enough for this to be an issue due to fishing and dangers of being so large. Largest one recorded weighed: 51.5 lbs (23.36 kg) and was caught in Maine, USA in 1926. Largest-Lo...294772.jpg

I'd be curious to see the citations for this, I've been told and seen research showing mosquitoes are the most dangerous.
