The wildlife doctor performed a Caesarean section, glad that the driver had noticed that the doe was in gestation when he hit her with his car.

At just six inches tall and weighing just over a pound, he is now in an incubator in the intensive care unit at Tiggywinkles Wildlife Hospital in Buckinghamshire.

Yes deer can be a problem around some parts here.
Not all drivers would act as responsible.

 

[Minus]

Yeah, in many places the deer are so thick that i couldn't see them even considering such a thing. There concern is more for reducing the population.

"According to a persistent myth, century eggs are, or once were, prepared by soaking eggs in horse urine. The myth may arise from the pungent odor of ammonia given off by century eggs, which is reminiscent of urine."

You did? I was wondering if i would be brave enough to try them.

Then you you feel this is an accurate description? "...the yolk becomes a dark green, cream-like substance with a strong odor of sulphur [FARTS] and ammonia [PEE], while the white becomes a dark brown, transparent jelly with little flavor or taste."

It wasn't about courage, I was just trying to be a good house guest. If I had had a choice in the matter, I seriously doubt I would have reached for the fart and pee eggs

 

[Minus]

Well i probably would prefer it to Balut.

 

[Drama]

*Throws up*

 

[Minus]

I am afraid that would be my reaction.

 

[Drama]

Lol

 

[mintymint]

In general, I prefer my food to be post-pubescent.

 

[Badjedidude]

Sometimes you gotta eat stuff like that to fit into the culture you're visiting. *shrug* lulz it happens...

...but I personally wouldn't recommend it.

Scaly Anteater Soup:

Has anyone here ever smelled one of these?

Durian

" The odour has led to the fruit's banishment from certain hotels and public transportation in southeast Asia."

Here are some of the ways that the smell of Durian has been described:

Stinky socks.
Rotting flesh
Fermented onions
Overripe cheese.
Rotting fish.
A city dump on a hot summers day
Carrion in custard.

She and her family were visiting Malaysia a few years ago but had a stop over in Singapore. Her parents, who had moved to Canada about 30 years earlier, were chomping at the bit for durian. This was NOT permitted in the hotel but they went out and got one anyway from a local market.

"They brought it back and it was like they were little kids again. Giggling and all a-twitter about the durian. They opened it up in the hotel room and started to eat. I think only a few minutes had passed and we got a phone call."

The hotel staff demanded to know if they had durian in the room. Her mother lied. The official replied: "Madam, we have had reports of a durian smell in your vicinity, please tell us if you have durian." Mom did not relent.

Her parents opened all the windows and were furiously fanning the room with the hotel magazine when they heard a knock on the door. A man dressed like an astronaut was standing on the other side.


"We have located the durian smell to this room, please step aside."

Two men, wearing the ridiculous suit and bearing a spray can charged in and spent the next five minutes atomizing the hotel room. Val's parents stood in the corner looking very much like the naughty children that they had been."
