    Lol, it's all good fun. I think humour is based on making strange associations and taking the micky out of wierdness.

    Aside from the propensity for 'street slang', the writer of that blog has a talent for writing, I would suggest, and as the target audience likely speaks the same jargon, it makes sense from an entertainment, promotional and economic opportunity perspective.

    The educational component slides in there nicely. People will actually be observing and possibly looking up more information on any of the animals that catch their interest, and I'm thinking that this could be a really good thing for generating an awareness of other species by means of this visual engagement.

    The right picture truly IS worth a thousand words.

    Thank you for posting the link, Wisdom Seeker.

    Do all animals in you opinion qualify as cute?

    I like to make fun of cute girls some times. Usually doesn't work in my favor, but I'm not superficial so who cares.
