Re: Riding Hares
I sometimes worry that my cat would run from a sufficiently determined mouse.

Re: Riding Hares
Right, but look at the size difference: A cat is a few hundred x the weight of a mouse, let alone the difference of a human! Animals smaller than hare regularly terrify them. Shrews are poor comparisons, the eat 5x their weight every day!

PS... remember a Hare is NOT a rodent. so is not quite the same as "sufficiently determined mouse" |

Re: Riding Hares
That's not the definition of 'Bird of Prey' I'm familiar with, that sounds more like 'Raptor' to me.

Okay, since real tree shrews are not native to Oregon, I have been calling this species by the wrong name. I can't seem to find a picture that looks right, but it definitely is shrew-ish, but not quite as bulky or proper predator in my aesthetics. So its behavior seemed wrong for its appearance, despite my many watchings of nature shows. |
