January 27, 2006 Ok, so just to preempt a deluge of emails about gnu facts: No, the gnu population is NOT causing any environmental problems in Africa. For a while, people used to think that they were trampling the flora to death with their increased numbers, but the ecosystem seems to be handling it just fine. Anyway, all the other factoids mentioned in today's strip are true. Especially the undeniable fact that "boobs" are the most amazing spectacle in nature. -ATW |
