LUCY, TREES, AND THE SHORT LIFE OF OCTOPUSES

Post election, life goes on. New studies indicate that 3.2 million years ago that Lucy spent much time in trees. Probably for food and protection from predators. Lucy used some tools but possessed neither bows and arrows nor assault rifles. Over the years was amazed to learn that octopuses are very intelligent creatures. I was a bit saddened to learn that octopuses that leave near the surface have a very short life span of one to two years.Not enough time to develop weapons of mass destruction. Good news for anyone who must have a pet fox. Apparently they don’t make good pets at all. But a study and experiment has been going on for 50 generations. Generations of foxes not people. Foxes that were less afraid of people were bred and over the years grew more full faces,a curlier tail and shorter legs. They are happy to see people and like dogs can “read people.” That may upset the keep foxes wild movement. On that note I wish you a wonderful Thursday.
