Just had to share this

Tapir's are on my list of animals that make me laugh! I'd like one as a pet.
Thanks Plot10. What will they think of next?

[VirginVegGrower]

I've never grown those before! Is it hard?

[di]

I'd love to grow tapirs and aardvarks.

[VirginVegGrower]

Oh yes! I would like kangaroos too, they'd be useful for compacting my brassica bed...

[di]

Wallabies would cope with smaller pots and far less compost.

(It really is time for me to find the motivation to get off my bottom )

Manatees and Dugongs appeal to me but I'd need a larger pond.
A giraffe would be useful too for pruning tall trees.....

[di]

My mate dreamt that she 'hatched'(?) a large brood of manatees....she came incredibly unstuck when they out grew her bath.

I like the barreleye fish, which has a transparent head and huge green eyes. There are some unusual animals out there.

Macropinna microstoma

Would my manatee eat them?

Would my manatee eat them?

Is this a competition, or a duel?

[veggiechicken]

Your fish aren't very big so mine would win, easy! And, they'd need lots - no competition!

Your fish aren't very big so mine would win, easy! And, they'd need lots - no competition!

But yours only eat grass so would probably choke on my fish, or turn its big nose up at it!!

How about a pandolin, what you got to go up against that?

[di]

Do you mean a pangolin? Looking at your location, I think you're being a little optimistic about having the right conditions!
