Soul Of Creation- Ann Beeching
are you ready for my favorite fact?
If you leave a hamster wheel out in the forest, wild mice will come and run on it.
that is my favorite fact
Bobcats and lynx will sit in cardboard boxes abandoned in the middle of the forest.
I asked the lynx researcher who told me this why, and he said “Cats, man” and shrugged.
This is now an “if I fits, I sits” appreciation thread.
Happy International Leopard Day!
Leopards (Panthera pardus) are the most widespread of the big cats.
