Unusual Wildlife News from Idaho and Oregon

In Idaho they found this:

Mountain Lion with teeth growing out of the side of its head!

In Oregon they found this:

“Behemoth” Daddy Long Legs

Okay, it’s not Big Foot but you gotta love this stuff.

Next time you see an ordinary fallen log in the forest turn it over and take a closer look. There’s hidden beauty and mystery just beyond your imagination – the delicate gills of a mushroom, little fanged dragons, colorful beetles, see through worms, underground grasshoppers – they’re waiting for you.
