Steve Caballero
Image by MacQ
The Search for Animal Chin (1987). A lovingly corny skateboarding video starring the breakout "Bones Brigade" directed and produced by Stacy Peralta, of Powell Peralta Skateboards.
Starring Tony Hawk, Steve Caballero, Mike McGill, Lance Mountain, Tommy Guerrero. It actually had "a plot!"
A movie I loved in 1987 and recently re-watched on DVD with some hilarious directors cuts and bonus disc of interviews with the original cast giving background. I guess you could sort of call this the "pink flamingos" of skateboard videos. It's so absurd it's great, and they skaters actually try to act. Well, a little.
Film also includes smaller parts by other 80's skaters. San Francisco Scene: Jim Thiebaud, Jesse Martinez, Bryce Kanights, Doug Smith. Bakersfield Scene: Chris Borst, Bobby Reeves, Charlie Dubois, Ray Underhill, Adrian Demain, Donny Griffins, Kevin Lambert. Johnny Rad Party Scene: Mike Vallely, Rodney Mullen, Per Welinder, Natas Kaupas, Arron Murray, Kevin Harris.

High roof inside the Africian Savannah building

The giraffes had just had a baby and so were the subject of much of the zoo activity. In fact this africian savannah building was the single busiest we saw while at the zoo.
Our first stop at the zoo on this trip was to the Africian Savannah building. The birds and Giraffes were both very active as the zoo keepers were busy feeding both of them.
A brief trip to the Calgary Zoo (www.calgaryzoo.com).

20080515 - mothra - 156-5673 - Oranjello and the moth
Image by Rev. Xanatos Satanicos Bombasticos (ClintJCL)
Oranjello likes to play with his food. Here he is seeming a little apprehensive about taking another swat at it.
BACKSTORY: This HUUUGE moth fell into our house from the back kitchen door. We called it "Mothra"; a common christening for house moths of this size. This was to be a good opportunity for Oranjello to satisfy his hunting urges, as well as to train him to hunt pests -- since we have the occasional mice and snakes (and raccoons!). It also proved to be an excellent photo-op.

The museum's nature trail was open for a brief period after the wedding ceremony / before the wedding reception.
These foxes seemed sooo bored in their tiny cage. All they did is run around for the most part.
Of course, I've seen real foxes in my back yard, and they are quite skittish.

ENGLISH
The Bottlenose Dolphin is one of the most common and well-known dolphins. Recent molecular studies show it is in fact two species, the Common Bottlenose Dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) and the Indo-Pacific Bottlenose Dolphin (T. aduncus). It inhabits warm and temperate seas worldwide and may be found in all but the Arctic and the Antarctic Oceans.
Bottlenose Dolphins are still occasionally killed in dolphin drive hunts for their meat or because they compete for fish. Bottlenose Dolphins (and several other dolphin species) often travel together with tuna, and since the dolphins are much easier to spot than the tuna, fishermen commonly encircle dolphins to catch tuna, sometimes resulting in the death of dolphins. This has led to boycotts of tuna products and a "dolphin-safe" label for tuna caught with methods that do not endanger dolphins.
Bottlenose Dolphins (as well as other dolphins) are often trained to perform in dolphin shows. Some animal welfare activists claim that the dolphins there are not adequately challenged and that the pools are too small; others maintain that the dolphins are well cared for and enjoy living and working with humans.
Direct interaction with dolphins is used in the therapy of severely handicapped children and adults, and many report it as having a highly positive effect.
The military of the United States and Russia train Bottlenose Dolphins as military dolphins for wartime tasks such as locating sea mines or detecting and marking enemy divers. The USA's program is the U.S. Navy Marine Mammal Program, located in San Diego, California.
In the town of Laguna in south Brazil, a pod of Bottlenose Dolphins is known to drive fish towards fishermen who stand at the beach in shallow waters. One dolphin will then roll over, which the fishermen take as sign to throw out their nets. The dolphins feed on the escaping fish. The dolphins were not trained for this behaviour; the collaboration has been going on at least since 1847. Similar cooperative fisheries also exist in Africa, and have been reported through recorded history.

CASTELLANO
De las más de 30 especies de delfines que existen, el delfín mular o delfín hocico de botella (Tursiops truncatus) es el más común y más conocido de la familia de los Delphinidae. Ello se debe a que con frecuencia se tiene en cautiverio, pues su naturaleza sociable y su inteligencia lo convierten en la estrella de muchos espectáculos.
En estado salvaje, estos delfines grises viven en grupos de hasta 10 ó 12 individuos. Como otros delfines, se sirven de un sistema de "eco" para localizar su alimento y, a menudo, cooperan entre ellos para acorralar a sus presas. Frecuentemente surcan la estela dejada por los barcos y, a veces, se acercan a los nadadores y los dejan jugar con ellos.
Habitan en los mares cálidos y templados de todo el mundo y pueden encontrarse en todos los océanos a excepción del Ártico y el Antártico.
La especie se conoce comúnmente por su carácter y curiosidad amistosos. Es frecuente que un zambullidor sea investigado por un grupo de ellos. De vez en cuando, los delfines han rescatado a zambullidores en peligro llevándolos a la superficie, un comportamiento que también demuestran hacia los miembros en peligro de sus propias especies. En noviembre de 2004, un informe más dramático de la intervención de un delfín vino de Nueva Zelanda: un gran tiburón blanco se acercó a tres salvavidas, nadando a 100 m de la costa cerca de Whangarei. Un grupo de delfines, detectando al parecer el peligro de los nadadores, se reunió y los rodeó firmemente por cuarenta minutos, previniendo un ataque del tiburón.
Las apariciones de los delfines en la mitología y las leyendas son numerosas, y atestiguan de la relación entre el hombre y los delfines desde la antigüedad. La mitología griega cuenta que estos mamíferos marinos antes que delfines fueron hombres, concretamente unos piratas que intentaron vender al dios Dionisio como esclavo, y este como castigo los convirtió en dichos cetáceos. En la mitología romana Neptuno, el dios romano del agua y el mar, siempre era representado con su característico tridente y rodeado de delfines. Se trasmite la leyenda que entre los antiguos cristianos los delfines es el simbolismo de la regeneración del individuo.
Desde la época de la Guerra Fría los delfines se usan por parte del la Marina estadounidense con fines bélicos debido a su gran inteligencia: ya sea como colocadores de minas, como espías (transportando equipos de detección ópticos o electrónicos) o directamente como soldados, atacando a buzos o embarcaciones. Estos delfines están bajo una Unidad que se conoce como "Unidad de Mamíferos Marinos". El Pentágono ha confirmado el uso de delfines en el Golfo Pérsico para el dragado de minas y la detección de buceadores.
Al igual que los perros antitanque, los delfines son entrenados y usados con fines bélicos, en este caso en el medio subacuático. Se los adiestra para que transporten, coloquen o remuevan minas explosivas magnéticas bajo el casco de embarcaciones militares metálicas. Cuando colocan minas, su labor no es suicida, ya que huyen tras la colocación de la bomba y pueden ser usados para una futura nueva misión.
