Dean 0 Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 How about a sloth?? Sleep almost all day and have a tendancy to just let go and drop to the ground when they need to get out of a tree. Link to post Share on other sites
gamera 0 Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 Yeah, Dean that's what sakebomb said in Japanese. Don't they have natural enemies? Link to post Share on other sites

I had been bitten by an eel the week before and thought this giant thing was my last leg. I didn't know they are sooooo----ooooo mellow. They must be smokin' the ocean herbs.. Very, very cool creatures! No, Kintaro I have never seen any real manbo in the sea. Just have seen one in a zoo and some on TV. What do you mean by "last leg" ? Link to post Share on other sites
kintaro 0 Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 I thought mr. manbo was going to eat me and kintaro would be 'fish food.' Link to post Share on other sites
gamera 0 Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 lol... ok. I don't want to be eaten by a manbo. Link to post Share on other sites
Dean 0 Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 Have to get my head into those Japanese textbooks again. Although cant think of when I will actually use it! Link to post Share on other sites
orinoco 0 Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 Sloth sounds a bit boring though, doesn't it? Not very exciting. I'd look into whales, 97. Good luck. Link to post Share on other sites
bettyx 0 Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 what about a platypus? they were originally mistaken as a man-made creature, people thought somebody had sewn a ducks bill onto a cat or something. they lay eggs & yet also give milk (monotremes> one of only two in the world) & also have a poisonous spur. they're a damn mystery & i have no idea how they evolved/still survive. plus they were forever immortalized at aichi expo in that damn aussie pavillion where they featured a giant platypus larger than my entire house.

97 0 Posted November 15, 2005 Author Share Posted November 15, 2005 Thank you for the good ideas. I have decided to do crows. I think they are cool and I know they are not popular. I also found some good information about them in the library and on the internet, and they seem really adaptable birds. Wish me luck! Link to post Share on other sites
bettyx 0 Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 97 - see if you can find out why they don't like yellow rubbish bags. it seems to be on the news at least once a week. Link to post Share on other sites
muikabochi 208 Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 I know they are not supposed to like shiny/glittery things. I hear thats why some people near me have lots of CDs hanging up in their open windows in summer. Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 Good choice 97. Good luck with it my friend. Link to post Share on other sites
DumbStick 13 Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 bettyx - the crows round my area don't seem put off by the yellow bags at all. In fact, they seem to be pecking at them every morning the garbage is out. I had heard about the dislike for shiny things too. Link to post Share on other sites
97 0 Posted January 14, 2006 Author Share Posted January 14, 2006 I did my project and handed it in. I hope it gets a good mark, I'll let you know more when I get it back. Thanks for the help! Link to post Share on other sites

Mudguts 0 Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 Whales in the Southern ocean. They are totally protected by Aussie law unless they have a Japanese whaler ship on their ass, have lots of fresh fish to eat and generally just swim around lazily without a care in the world.

damian 0 Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 Well done, 97. You seem to be a bright enthusiastic and young dude. Keep working hard work and spirit, but don't forget to have some fun along the way. Stuff like snowboarding and chatting up those incredibly hot young Japanese school girls in Nagoya then inviting them around for a slumber party when your parents are away.
