I learned an interesting factoid today: cheetahs are the only species of wild cat whose claws don't retract. It allows them to make sudden turns and maintain traction when they're chasing down prey at 60 miles an hour.
Other than that, today's been pretty much a vacuum. :)

Well thanks - I never knew this either! Aren't they incredible creatures? I love all the big wild cats - I think jaguars are my favorite.
Hey canwag....just cruising by. Hope you are well. I've got a new story up on my blog.
I knew this factoid, but only because my little scientist told me!
