Malagasy giant chameleon (Furcifer oustaleti)

The Malagasy giant chameleon is a good start for a beginner lizard climber, but provides a lot of fun for advanced climbers as well. The nose approach is the most common, but some prefer the challenge of the lower lip followed by a rope looped over the eye socket. This is particular challenging during fruit fly season when the eye moves around seemingly at random.

Throwback Thursday

This fish might be a goby. It might be something else. It might be defending its burrow, it might be advertising for a mate. If it is advertising for a mate, it might decide to be either male or female, or it might decide to sneak into someone else’s mating session and provide a contribution. Frankly, there is too much uncertainty involving this fish and it should be thrown back. (Though if it’s a frillfin goby, it might jump back, so check for that first.)

Kettle of Hawks

Birds of prey, like hawks, form groups in the late summer and circle updrafts together as a mixed-species flock. Experts believe this is in preparation for migration. Actually, it's about ethics in games journalism.
