I love animals, but admittedly I don’t know much about them. That being said, today, I thought it would be nice to post a guest blog by someone well versed in Alternative Animal Science. He is pursuing a degree in the field at the prestigious College University located in Place, Other Bigger Place. Meet soon-to-be-doctor, Oliver Burrows.
Not many people are familiar with the following animals but I will attempt to give some information that will allow you to impress your friends and give some insight into their behaviour and origins.

Mythology: For millennium people had wanted to have a new food group that many were allergic to or that could replace the water they were using to make their cereal edible and not a stodgy mess in their mouths. An Inuit hunter named Kinlonsma stumbled upon a migrating herd of these beautiful animals deep in the Alaskan tundra and purely by accident, tripped upon a rock and landed with his mouth open around the animal’s teet upon which he drew breath and, inadvertently, consumed the animals milk. Those that witnessed the event say he didn’t trip at all, a view Kinlonsma argued against until his death.
