Frank, This is spooky, how’d you know I didn’t know?
I thing Adam from Utah means it would make a good category. Wherein each trivia post would still retain all the joy of clicking “More”. and they all would be on one page
For the shrew geeks edification:
Shrews and Moles
Northern Short-tailed Shrew
Blarina brevicauda
Description The largest shrew in North America. Solid gray above and below. Short tail. L 3 3/4–5″ (96–127 mm); T 3/4–1″ (20–25 mm); HF 1/2– 3/4″ (12–20 mm); Wt 1/2–1 oz (14–29 g).
Warning The shrews of the genus Blarina are unique among mammals in producing poison in their salivary glands. The saliva is not dangerous to humans, but a bite may swell and be painful for several days.
Similar Species Southern Short-tailed Shrew is smaller. Least Shrew is grayish brown or brownish.
Breeding 4–8 young born from spring through fall, sometimes thoughout the year. Gestation 17–21 days.
Ahem: http://animaldiversity.ummz.umich.edu/site/accounts/information/Blarina_brevicauda.html
Reproduction: Elaborate mating nests, 150-250 mm long by 150-150 mm wide, are built out of shredded grass or leaves and placed in tunnels or under logs and rocks. The breeding season extends from early spring to early fall (March-September), although some scattered reproductive activity may occur throughout the entire year. Females may have up to 3 litters per year, although 2 is more usual. Gestation is 21-22 days and litter size is 3-10, although 5-7 pups is most common. The young leave the nest when 18-20 days old and are weaned several days later. Females reach sexual maturity at 6 weeks, while males mature at 12 weeks. The life span can be as long as 3 years, but it is usually much more brief.
I win!!
It’s gotta be at least an hour or 2
21 days!!! Ha!!!
second!
Are comments working? Or was my earlier comment deleted?
I only ask because I wonder if reposting it would be doing a valuable service to the blogosphere or needlessly pissing off the host.
Repost; things have been wonky lately.
Just guessing, but would it be anything close to the forward air speed of an unlaiden african swallow? Nee! Nee!
It’s definitely 7, but I’m unsure on the exact units.
That’s European swallow, you stoopid k’nig’it!
Well, my wife always gave birth about 40 weeks after conception. But she has always lived in the south. Are things different up north?
Ask Bill Clinton.
He married one.
I need a fun trivia tab. they are one of my new favorite features.
Adam
Only problem of a Fun Trivia page is that it would show the answers to each fun trivia without you having to hit “More”
