    Where does the African black Mamba rate in the deadliest snakes of the world?
    Lists or rankings of the world's "most venomous snakes" or "most dangerous snakes" are tentative and differ greatly due to numerous factors, including the recentness and reliability of the data, the number of species analyzed, and the testing methods used. In terms of human fatalities, the most venomous species may not always be the most dangerous; for example, while the Russell's viper has a significantly weaker venom than the inland taipan, it is responsible for far more deaths due to its...21.4.2010 10:55

    We contacted the Department of English Philology at the University of Helsinki but even they couldn’t provide us with an exact answer. There are many references, however, to a citation: “A dog is a dog, a bird is a bird, and a cat is a person.” It’s always attributed to a person called “Mugsy Peabody”. http://www.doghause.com/quotes.asp http://www.alpha.pl/~cats/quotes.htm http://www.protezioneanimalidilegnano.com/battute.htm The citation is included in at least these two books: http://www....6.12.2006 11:47

    what are predators to black widow spiders?
    The common name 'black widow spider' is most commonly used to refer to the three North American species. However,it is occasionally also applied to several other members of the Latrodectus (widow spider) genus in which there are 31 recognized species. Wikipedia lists most common enemies of these particularly North American black widow spiders. There are various parasites and wasps that prey either on the spider egg sacs or the adult spider itself.

    How many months lasts a kangaroo´s pregnancy?
    Kangaroo´s pregnancy lasts about one month. As with all marsupials, the young are born at a very early stage of development after a gestation of 31-36 days. Kangaroos usually have one young annually. The young kangaroo is born alive at a very immature stage, when it is only about 2 cm long and weighs less than a gram. Immediately after birth it crawls up the mother's body and enters the pouch. The baby attaches its mouth to one of four teats, which then enlarges to hold the young animal in...31.1.2006 20:25
