Anybody see the video clips of the whale that attacked a bunch of Japanese
boaters?
It's been on MSNBC this morning.

Apparently the whale got trapped in a bay and several people in small boats
were trying to herd it back to open water. The whale attacked, flipped one
boat upside down (the guy was killed) and attacked some other boats as well.

The Japanese better stop hunting them. Word is spreading in the whale
communities.

Wow!

Even though they are beautiful animal wild creatures are unpredictable.
Dolphins have been know to ram into humans and killing them.

Do you know that more people are killed by captive deer than any other
creature?

It is amazing the amount of useless information I have learned since being
out on disability and having tons of free time. ;-)

this sounds like one of those "facts" that are repeated over and over so
many times that people actually being to believe it.

Did you know 74% of all statistics are made up?

I love statistics:

According to CNN, who reviewed the average annual animal related
fatalities dogs had the highest fatalities due to an animal attack,
average 18/yr.

135 people a year die due to auto collision with a wild deer, not due to
a captive deer attacking a human..

http://archives.cnn.com/2001/US/09/0...cks/index.html

But the real "creature" responsible for more human deaths than any other
"creature" is the mosquito which claims thousands
of human lives each year.

As I said earlier, 74.8% (or is it 67.9%) of all statistics are made up.
