Not sure what the original source of this was, other than an old tumblr post
Here’s the original tumblr thread just in case
Hello my baby, hello my honey, hello my ragtime gal.
Nobody has mentioned mountain oysters.
That looks like some Diogenes shit right there
It May Fly, but does it???
Does it???
It does for a bit, and it’s more like a Junefly in my experience
In Canada they’re junebugs
- Horseshoe crab – Not a crab.
- Hermit crab – Not a crab.
- King crab – Not a crab (but, in fact, a hermit crab).
- Porcelain crab – Not a crab.
Mayfly indeed may fly, give it a pass!
Hmmmm… The guide didn’t say the mountain goat isn’t a mountain… So I guess I’ll go catch me me own mountain!
They’re called Mountain Goats 'cause they’re the GOAT.
How is no one talking about the mountain chicken?
Or chicken of the woods?
In parts of China where frogs are eaten, they call them 田雞 which literally means “field chicken” (although it can refer to several different species of frog)
Hermit Crab - what kind of hermit would be so obsessed with real estate deals?
Fascinating on King Cobras, I had no idea!
For anyone who’s actually wondering, with snakes, ‘king’ is generally used to denote snakes that eat other snakes (like kingsnakes, for example).
Classic. Love this one
