Introducing Doug the Dung Beetle

By Dung Beetles

Some beetles have all the luck!  I just wish the CSIRO would re-open their Dung Beetle project and find the ideal variety to deal with two golden retriever pets.  For a short history on one of the most successful animal imports into Australia, Google search the CSIRO Dung Beetle Project.

Here boy. Fetch!

‘Arrgh!’ Apologies for the typo in the last posting.  (If you replace ‘seeing’ with ‘wearing’ it might make a bit more sense. The link on the site has been updated). In my defence, I offer the fact that I is engineer and us enginiers are not known for our grammatical prowess.  However, engineers are known for their ability to apply logic and process and as such I have added the new process of independent proof reading prior to posting.  The newly appointed proof reader comes highly qualified with a masters of science! (definitely one up on the humble engineer).

Snottite – that can’t be a real word

By Pot Luck

Perhaps a limited audience for this cartoon, as snottites are probably not common knowledge (it’s never a good start when you have to explain your cartoons, but I’m rather attached to it).  I first heard of their existence by watching the Wonders of the Universe/Solar System documentaries by Prof Brian Cox.

So what do these little suckers looks like?  Well, as you can imagine their name was inspired by their appearance – check out these snottite photos and for more info read the NASA website’s article.
