I missed it on here somehow as I don't get a chance to read everything.

Also, I disagree with the man who thought the blue dog looked like it came from Hell, if that's what he meant. The pictures of the mounted one in that lady's living room showed a very 'different' but completely beautiful animal. <br /><br />One note, though, according to a study a couple of years ago (I can't remember who by but it was the subject of a documentary), dolphins kill porpoises for sport/ practice. I think this was the subject of a recent blog posting, as well, actually.Jon Downeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03467805661081755044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16505569.post-36113606786074946682010-03-29T10:22:26.589+01:002010-03-29T10:22:26.589+01:00"Monster" is already a prejudicial term...."Monster" is already a prejudicial term. Many Cryptozoologists disliked its use, including Heuvelmans.<br /><br />I had been plagued for several years by some really stupid neighborhood youths that thought it was funny to yell out "Monster!" at me from behind cover and then beat a hasty retreat. For several years I could not bear hearing the term and if you called me that to my face, your relatives would probably be paying for your funeral shortly thereafter.<br /><br />I have mellowed somewhat more recently and it might not instantly provoke retaliation if you use that word in my presence. But I should emphasize that I consider myself a Cryptozoologist.<br /><br />I do not now nor have I ever been advocating the study of Monsters. Only Unrecorded species of animal life.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
