Gesner, Topsell, Johnston (both the 1655 Latin version and the 1678 English translation) and Camerarius all agree that this peculiar animal is a semivulpa i.e. half-a-wolf.
This later inferior copy by Louise Bourgeois is incomplete so by my reckoning it's only about 45% of a wolf.

Y'know, call me bipedal-centric and all, but boobies that are under the booby host as opposed to preceding the possessor of boobies are not interesting and are, to be honest, offensive to the long time observer of boodies in the wild.
ReplyDeleteYou sir, are a pervert, and most certainly NOT a gentleman.
Um. Newsletter n'stuff?
Heh heh.
ReplyDeleteHe said Boodies...

ReplyDeleteDear Riddled,
I think a Wolverhamptons fan has moved into our neighbourhood. Least as, there is now a car parking down the street with the numberplate WOLVE5. It's a rough suburb.
What is the correct etiquette to express our deep condolences for the Wanderers' loss last weekend, when we happen to meet him?
PS MILLWALL!!
Dear Mr. Millwall, we suggest that you put a can of lager in the drying cupboard tonight and then, tomorrow, shake it as you walk toward the neighbour, then spray the contents all over him shouting the derogatory name of your choice.
ReplyDeleteAh tribes, where would we be without them?
ReplyDeletedefwt, not a nice name.
