The wildlife of Australia

by David White

Australia is full of unique wildlife that you won't find anywhere else in the world, so here is a very small sampling of the many amazing animals to be found in the Outback and beyond

Kangaroo
Australia’s most infamous animal, the kangaroo is a marsupial known for their strong hind legs and for rearing their young in a pouch in front of the abdomen. What is commonly known as a kangaroo is actually one of four species, the Red Kangaroo, Easter Grey kangaroo, Western Grey Kangaroo and Antilopine Kangaroo, all of which are exclusive to Australia.
Interesting fact: female kangaroos are permanently pregnant, but can freeze the development of the embryo until their previous joey is able to leave the pouch.

Koala
The koala is an herbivorous marsupial exclusive to eastern and southern Australia. They live almost entirely on a diet of eucalypt leaves, and rest motionless for around 16 to 18 hours a day due to their very low metabolic rate.
Interesting fact: despite being commonly referred to in western countries as a “koala bear”, it is not, in fact, a bear. English speaking settlers named it as such due to its similar appearance to bears.
Weedy Sea Dragon
The weedy sea dragon is a unique fish species closely related to the sea horse. They are named for the projections from their body that resemble weeds, used as camoue in their habitat among shallow reeds and seaweed beds.
Interesting fact: eggs are carried by the males of the species.

Wombat
The wombat is a short-legged marsupial found in the forested and mountainous areas of south-eastern Australia and Tasmania. They are nocturnal animals, and dig extensive burrow systems using their powerful claws and front teeth.
Interesting fact: the wombat’s extremely slow metabolism means that complete digestion can take as long as two weeks.

Tasmanian Devil
The Tasmanian devil is a small, carnivorous marsupial found in both Australia and Tasmania. They are nocturnal, hunting mostly at night, and feed on any native mammals up to the size of a small kangaroo.
Interesting fact: Since the late 90’s, Tasmanian devil populations have become threatened by the emergence of devil facial tumour disease, which prevents the animals from eating and eventually causes death by starvation. In 2009 they were declared endangered, but efforts are underway to restore populations.

Best friends graduated from medical school at the same time and decided
that, In spite of two different specialties, they would open a practice together
to share office space and personnel.

Dr. Smith was the psychiatrist and Dr. Jones was the proctologist.They put
up a sign reading:

"Dr. Smith and Dr. Jones: Hysterias and Posteriors".

The town council was livid and insisted they change it.

So, the docs changed it to read: "Schizoids and Hemorrhoids".This was also
not acceptable, so they again changed the sign.

"Catatonics and High Colonics" - No go.

Next, they tried "Manic Depressives and Anal Retentives"
- thumbs down again.

Then came "Minds and Behinds" - still no good.

Another attempt resulted in "Lost Souls and Butt Holes"
- unacceptable again!

So they tried "Analysis and Anal Cysts" - not a chance.

"Nuts and Butts" - no way.

"Freaks and Cheeks" - still no good.

"Loons and Moons" - forget it.

Almost at their wit's end, the docs finally came up with:

"Dr. Smith and Dr. Jones - Specializing in Odds and Ends".

Everyone loved it.

If anyone is near Church and Bloor right now, Dolce Gusto has set up an amazing portable cafe (equipped with a chandelier, lol), on the south-west corner. It's a promotional thing, they are trying to drum up business, selling their home brewers.
Free coffees, cappucinos, macchiatos, chococinos, espressos, etc... worth popping in if you are in the area.

Thanks Jonesy you had me at FREE.

I'm enjoying a Latte right now. One of the staff said that they'll be there to Friday, so its Free Nescafe this week...WooHoo!!

Yes, I went down a second time with another co-worker and heard them say they will be there until Friday. And I just love FREE! Glad you could pop over there and enjoy a latte.

Three Little Pigs went out to dinner one night.

The waiter came and took their drink order.

"I would like a Sprite," said the first little piggy.

"I would like a Coke," said the second little piggy.

"I want beer, lots and lots of beer," said the third little piggy.

The drinks were brought out and the waiter took their orders for dinner.

"I want a nice big steak," said the first piggy.

"I would like the salad plate," said the second piggy.

"I want beer, lots and lots of beer," said the third little piggy.

The meals were brought out and a while later the waiter
approached the table and asked if the piggies would like any dessert.

"I want a banana split," said the first piggy.

"I want a cheesecake," said the second piggy.

"I want beer, lots and lots of beer," exclaimed the third little piggy.

"Pardon me for asking," said the waiter to the third little piggy,
"But why have you only ordered beer all evening?"

The third piggy says -

"Well, somebody has to go 'Wee, wee, wee, all the way home!' "

nice win, pierre! congratulations!
what are you going to do with the cash?

Thanks everyone for the congrats, reps, and even poem

I've been in conference call from 9am to 12pm (unfortunatly, I forgot about the first one, didn't show up to work until 9:10am, and didn't call in until 9:25am when I realized I had the call )

I hope more of us gets to play. I'll keep listening and posting when I can.

We like to go south in March (work keeps me too busy to go in January and February), so I guess the trip is now paid for...
