[bugmankeith]

What are you talking about Gigus??? In English please.

The Mummified Sea monster one is really interesting.... It looks so real and so fake at the same time

Kinda looks like some one took the skull of a dog and stretched a fish over it....

What are you talking about Gigus??? In English please.

A spider that is half male and half female...right down the middle, I believe.

 

[bugmankeith]

Oh ok thanks for the translation. The mummified sea monster seems fake to me, but I posted it just because that article looked interesting (and cool picture), the rest appear to all be 100% real.

[bugmankeith]

Yeah I just dont remember scientific names when I read.

"Britney Orders Kevin To Give Up Pet Sharks" made me laugh!
