sometimes they bite back


in light of the spate of recent stories of animals adversely affected by climate change i thought i would link to this story which raises hopes for the impending mammalian revolution. the sea lions in san francisco bay are bitin' mad:

(CBS) SAN FRANCISCO San Francisco's Aquatic Park Lagoon was closed for swimming due to reports of a sea lion repeatedly biting local swimmers, maritime officials said late Wednesday. Officials estimated at least 20 swimmers have been bitten since Monday, including 13 on Wednesday alone at the Lagoon, which hosts two swimming and rowing clubs and is a favorite spot for swimming along San Francisco’s northern waterfront.

we're mad as hell and we're not going to take it anymore! watch your toes, naked apes.

Beware the water-creatures. Or something.

I hope that the seals recruit my favorite marine creatures-- EELS! Then the could wiggle up onto dry land and intimidate the stupid Great Oppressors. After all you can't leave a carbon footprint if you don't have any feet!
