Jackalope --- now extinct in most of its historic range. May survive in south western Saskatchewan. Experiments in captive breeding have all failed.

I wish!! That is one awesome pooddytad!! They do not live in the wild, they are too big and slow to hunt down prey. The only living ones are in captivity.

Here is a question (For all )

CHRONOLOGY_
and matters that provide 'insight'



How 'OLD', are the scriptures, that provide the original-text of the Bible ??

Are you sure ?


A recent discovery in Australia.... brings a little uncertainty ~into play (here)

Scientists working with Mr Hamm's team have determined the age of the site at 49,000 years.

Aboriginal Australians are the oldest continued civilisation in the world, descending from the first people to leave Africa, according to a genetic study published by the University of Copenhagen in September.

But the time of arrival of the first Australians is debated among researchers.
The consensus view, is they arrived
50,000 years ago.

But Mr Hamm said their presence 49,000 years ago at a site in southern Australia suggested they must have reached northern parts far earlier.

It may not have been that much earlier. Even migrating at just ten miles per year in one thousand years, ten thousand miles would be covered. Something like this took place in the Americas because the mega fauna only took about a millennium to disappear after first arrival.

Yes, I agree that something-a little 'similar' [may have happened in America]
if only, because 'what goes-around, also comes-around, AGAIN'


So, returning now to the subject, of 'chronology'
please remind-me,
when, did Jesus arrive on-Earth ?

**
The SPREAD, from North to South Australia
may not have been so-rapid (as you suggest)
bearing in mind, that progress, (without transport)
requires; adequate-supplies, follow-up support (repeat migrations)

AND.... a large-enough GENE POOL



ETA: Should we view such migrations _as we see refugees arriving from eastern Europe and the Middle East
THEY, are not entering virgin-lands _?
THEY, are relying upon our infrastructure, to-survive

Back then, THE IMMIGRANTS 'found' no-such foundations, setup

I wonder what the explanation for THIS will be

The largest, is under twelve inches 'short'
(as opposed to tall )

DID YOU KNOW ?

The known universe is made up of 50,000,000,000 galaxies. There are between 100,000,000,000 and 1,000,000,000,000 stars in a normal galaxy. In the Milky Way alone there might be as many 100 billion Earth-like planets.
Still think you’re alone?

Wow, I just read a story about a man who had been constipated for-years
Surgeons hacked away a huge chunk of his intestine
because it looked as though he might explode at any moment

I was going to post the LINK, but, having checked
the 'comments' below the article_ I cannot
Instead... I am posting two photos and the name of the source

Only it's head wasn't shaved

Adding a personal note...
I expected it to have more of the frame
that German Shepherds have.
Indeed, I am very-surprised, it has not

Now here is a 'turn-up for the books'

For some reason, most of the country wants yet another god damn election.
Less than a week ago we had the third national vote in as many years.
But rather than being sick of the whole process, the majority of the country would apparently welcome another one.
This is according to a YouGov poll, which found that 43% of the UK wants another general election this autumn.

I think the books will be rather OVERCOOKED ~to be honest
