Zobmondo!!


Have to lie motionless while a fruit bat licks fruit jelly off your face
or
While a vulture eats roadkill off your stomach?
Yummm, I'm getting hungry - how about you? Anyway, here's your FYI for this one:
"When the Indian Fruit Bat (so named because it likes fruit jelly?) of Southeast Asia spreads its wings, they measure five feet from tip to tip."
"To prevent infection while standing in the rotting animals they eat, vultures poop on their own feet. (The poop contains antibiotics.) And remember, vultures are bald because they shove their heads into places where feathers would get messy."
Wow, that was a little more than what I was ready for! So, if you can't afford that prescription your doctor gave you for anibiotics, now you know an alternative.
