| Suddenly I have a real hankering for calamari...
I have the utmost respect for animals and trees that make it to such an old age intact. (I should be so lucky.) Most fishermen and hunters that I know who catch something unusually enormous or venerably old set the thing free, or pass on taking the shot. Why don't the teenagers I fence take that approach to me?

| easy.... you've not reached the "venerable" stage yet!  Nor are you "enormous" probably.

| That giant cabbage in the back of the truck in the 4th picture, I think that's a vegetable not an animal. Not sure. Somebody confirm this, please.

| And at least one of those pictures, the animals aren't really that big -- the picture of squid on the beach. They've put the camera down at ankle level, and you're seeing people in the background, which may look small compared to the squid -- but that's only because the squid are much closer to the camera.
(I believe that was from last year's beaching of squid in SoCal -- that looks like the beach at La Jolla. The squid were large for the area, but only about 12-24" in size...) | |

| Well I'll bet that hunter feels like a big man. I find this sort of hunting a bit distasteful - it's hardly sport. Moving on ... there's also a tree on that list as well. And what the HELL is that thing 5 pics down. It looks like something from Starship Troopers ...
And by the way the final pic is a photoshop job. That arthropod (horseshoe crab) doesn't grow that big. | |
