Am waiting for the rain on this cool Tuesday afternoon. Just read about a camel skeleton found in Austria. The article said that was about as usual as a ship wreck found in a desert. It was from the 17th century and probably a result of the Ottoman-Habsburg War. If we do not get more rain here a camel might become more useful now. It was a war camel and a hybrid between a two humped and one humped camel. It was bigger and more easy to control. I wonder if it got more miles per gallon of feed? Not connected to that is the large number of small eartquakes in Oklahoma.
Now about the pythons which are,of course in Florida. All the cute little animals are disappearing in the Everglades. What if this group of reptiles become so hungry that they form a big ball of slithering snakes and descend on populate areas. Maybe the small earthquakes will keep them out of Oklahoma. One animal that is doing very well is the tardigrade. it is a microscopic animal that has eight little legs. It has survived the vacuum of space, can live for ten years without food or water, almost absolute zero temperatures and boiling water. Now if it would only develop a taste for the pythons in the Everglades.
