Hawks don’t hunt in the dark because they are diurnal birds. They only hunt during the day, and some prefer hunting at dusk, but technically dusk isn’t nighttime as there’s still sunlight available. Once it gets dark, hawks retreat to their nest for the night.

If horses are grazed with sheep in the same feild, it cuts down the amount of parasitic worms in either animal, as sheep worm larvae cannot live in horses digestive system and horse worm lavae cannot live in sheep digestive system. (This is not to say you do not need to worm either animal, but after a year or so you can control the number by doing fecal worm count, if there is an abundance then a wormer is given, if the number is low, then a wormer is not needed)

"Girl Hawks are bigger than boy Hawks"

The female of the species is very often larger than the male in much of the animal kingdom. For example:

Reptiles

Insects

Arachnids

Birds (especially birds of prey)

Fish (check out anglerfish)

Mammals - with some exceptions - are the only major animal group where males are nearly always physically larger than females on average. In both cases this is thought to be because males will actively compete with each other and actively seek out the female of the species whilst the female of the species is quite able to do fuck-all other than wait for a suitable male to show up and can ignore all the unsuitable ones until a suitable male eventually shows up. So, a bit like Fab really...

Anyway, they should have called it the "Tyrannosaurus Regina" as the females were much larger than the males.

What I find funny is in our species is the woman who is the beautiful and attractive one .

Who does herself all up ….

The males go after her then she picks her favourite .

In other species like birds and frogs or lizards or crabs

Is the male the beautiful one and show off and the females came pick and fall for the favourite

^^

The peacock for example .

It's theoretical, but let's say you have a cake, and you slice it in half, and you then slice that half in half again... well if you keep doing this (slicing each new half of cake in half again) then in theory you will have an infinite amount of cake.

I think it's referred to as a super task

It's basically the same as something that has a half-life, because it always half it will never actually reach a point of inexistence and will continue for ever

That reminds me of a joke

An infinite number of mathematicians walk into a bar. The bartender says: “What’ll it be, boys?” The first mathematician: “I’ll have one half of a beer.” The second mathematician: “I’ll have one quarter of a beer.” The third mathematician: “I’ll have one eight of a beer.” The fourth mathematician: “I’ll have one sixteenth of a…” The bartender interrupts: “Know your limits, boys” as he pours out a single beer.

"

Kilograms are a measure of mass, not weight.

If the feathers are on the moon they weigh less than the solid rock if that is still on the earth. However, both still have the same mass (1kg).

If both are in the same place and subject to the same gravitational force then they will weigh the same.

I hope this isn't the "try dropping it on your foot" joke...

"

The point is...the surface area wasn't infinite to start with.

After a certain point - long after you have very small crumbs - you will be breaking the molecular bonds that made it a cake in the first place. You will never have an infinite amount of cake, molecules, atoms, quarks or otherwise - the surface area is irrelevant. Even on a sub-atomic level the total available surface area remains the same.

The reason the Welsh are called sheep staggers is because back in the day the Welsh used to steal the English sheep and if they were caught they'd have their hands chopped off. So if they were caught they used to say they wasn't stealing it but shagging it.
