I know this may sound like a lame thread, but I have a very keen interest in the animal world. My favourite author is Gerald Durrell who wrote many books about his various expeditions around the world to collect animals for zoos. Some of the animals that he describes are absolutely fascinating.
Among my favourites;
Lyrebird

This is one of the more amazing videos you will ever see (it is genuine and not fake as some suggest).

The long extinct Spanish Horned Turtle.
As you can see by the crowd, this was not really a popular sport until the introduction of Bulls.

A liger. It's pretty much my favorite animal. It's like a lion and a tiger mixed... bred for its skills in magic.
That lyrebird video has to be fake?

It's genuine. The call repertoire of the Lyrebird is well documented.

I saw this doco once that had this tiger catch some lunch by a river bed, it had finally killed it when all of a sudden a croc jumps out and steals the prey, the tiger starts walking off going "Awww shit, that was mine" when he turns around and goes bugger this I did all the work, swims up to the croc and just goes WHACK! across the crocs head. The croc is like WTF? where did you come from and basically shits itself and swims off, the tiger reclaims his prey and his dominance of all things awesome. I never thought i'd see anything over power a croc in the water (Well since Irwin anyway) but tigers are just that good.
note: I wish it was on Tube but I can't find it.

Nice. :thumbsu: This is not the same incident, but it is similar to the one that you described. You may have seen it as it has over 45 million hits on youtube. It goes for over 8 minutes, but it is worth watching.

It is a good laugh. :thumbsu: There is another part where Steve Zahn is going for a piss and a giant bush turkey latches onto his nether region. I was in fits of laughter. Actually I may watch it again tonight. :thumbsu: Another very good Happy Madison movie is Grandma's Boy. Happy Madison movies are actually often funnier than the movies Sandler now stars in. Basically Happy Madison is a production company that enables Sandler's friends to make movies.
This is a scene from Grandma's Boy. It is a very underrated comedy.
