Prairie Dog performing The Rape of Lucrece

At last it rains, and busy winds give o’er:

Then son and father weep with equal strife

Who should weep most, for daughter or for wife.

Naked Mole Rat

This is the best photo of a naked mole rat I’ve ever taken.

Usually, they’re hiding because it’s daytime and they have scratched the heck out of their glass front so there’s no chance.

They’re not the prettiest animal out there, but for a critter that lives a weird sort of mammalian insect it sure does look the part.
