I think it's very cool looking. Post cool animals you know about.

The Pallas's cat has the densest fur of any feline

The biggest turtle there is. I'd like to keep one as transportation

One of the coolest organisms. Without it, we wouldn't have fluffy bread.

This stretches the definition of "animal" but I think the most extreme organism to ever exist has got to be the valonia ventricosa. A MASSIVE single called organism.

I was always taught that a chicken egg(or any large egg) was a single celled organism. Were my teachings unfounded?

16 Name: Nameless : 2025/07/23 05:18

Yes, but more so no.
There are actually TWO things referred to as an "egg." The first is an egg, which is a protective shell that houses some nutrients, and a zygote. That is not a single celled organism. That is closer to, say, a finger nail than an organism.
The other thing that IS a singular cell is an egg cell, which exists prior to being fertilized. When fertilized, it becomes a zygote. It's not really an organism prior to becoming a zygote(and the zygote does not stay a single cell for very long, subdividing very quickly,) but it is a singular cell.

I think it would be cool to be reincarnated as a bacteria and take on immune defenses with my green infectious brethren

Manx cat's are cool because they have no tail. They seem to be a popular animal on the Isle of Man because they've made quite a few stamps about them: https://i.pinimg.com/originals/2c/06/5e/2c065eb3ed768774366d9ebdb3e5c6d4.jpg

Manx means "from the Isle of Man" if I recall

20 Name: Nameless : 2025/07/30 10:18

What a nice stamp. Some of you may find it interesting that the Isle of Man is not part of the UK, but is still dependent on the crown.

21 Name: Nameless : 2025/07/30 11:27

The only reason I know about the Isle of Man is because of the really cool motorcycle race that happens there.

It must be the only thing that happens there since that's most of what I see about the Isle of Man. There isn't much history to study about it, I know they weren't originally gaelic but became so after much Scottish and irish influence
