I am looking for a marmoset monkey that needs to be rehomed?

Posted by admin on May 29th, 2011 and filed under marmoset monkey | 1 Comment »

We have one marmoset and he is a year old. I am looking for another that someone has taken on and decided they no longer want. Please no stupid remarks

Well near me they have a reptile centre and deal with reptiles which have been illegally smuggled onto planes and stuff, they also have marmoset moneys too, so basically it’s any animal that has been brought over by plane and can’t be sent back.

What does monkey sitting on a rock/egg represent in chinese mythology?

Posted by admin on May 25th, 2011 and filed under monkey | 1 Comment »

I found an old item made of some kind of rock. It is like a monkey sitting on some kind of rock/egg thing. What does it represent, and is it valuable?

in chinese mythology, a god named Pangu, born inside the egg, broke it into two halves: the upper half became the sky, while the lower half became the earth. As the god grew taller, the sky and the earth grew thicker and were separated further. Finally Pangu died and his body parts became different parts of the earth. from wikipedia

also: A special monkey who contained magical powers in Chinese mythology. He was born from an egg that had been impregnated by wind. He used his magical powers and wit to steal the peach of immortality from the gods.

What is the meaning of the evolution picture of monkey to human evolution drawing of Darwin’s Theory?

Posted by admin on May 22nd, 2011 and filed under monkey pictures | 2 Comments »

What was darwin trying to say with this picture in relation with his theory?

The famous picture you’re talking about is not from Darwin.
Zallinger did it in the 50s or 60s for “Young Readers Nature Library” a collection of Time-Life.

One single image can’t explain the complexity of human evolution. Authors expected the young reader to read the text, I’m afraid many just looked at the image and got a poor idea of evolution.

Many mistakes, misunderstandings or preconceptions come from this picture :

- The hominid on the left is a modern chimpanzee
That’s a mistake: chimpanzee didn’t exist millions years ago. But 50 years later, some people still say "human evolve from chimps"

- Bipedalism is the goal of evolution (4 legs -> knuckle walking -> more and more upright position)
Wrong again: all those hominids had different bipedalisms, and chimpanzee-human MRCA was more likely a better biped than modern chimps.

- A species evolve into a better one and so one.
Evolution is not a straight line, it’s a branched tree and most species on the picture are dead branches.
There had always been several human species at the same time, not one species replacing one other one. The chronology at the top of the image explain it quite well

- Human is perfect and evolution is the way to perfection
Wrong of course even if Darwin himself because of his religious background thought Human was the "top of evolution". Evolution has no "top"
Furthermore, there is no such a thing like "more evolved" human is not "more evolved" than potatoes.

This image is more accurate:

There is no chronology (you need to read) and body hair come from author imagination, but there is some humor and hominids features (height, shape, weapons) are scientifically correct.

Can Your Upgrade Monkey Bombs In Black Ops?

My Friend Told Me That It Was Possible,
Is This True?
Thanks.

Yes but only in ONE map it is called Der Riese.
You go near the boiler in the map and throw a monkey bomb into it and RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN TO PACK A PUNCH and make sure you have 5000 points and quickly hit Square . Now wait for the machine to do its thing and pickup the Gorilla Bombs.
Gorilla Bombs are AWESOME! Sad they are only in one map.
*SPOILER ALERT*
What they do is they not only attract zombies but it blows up 1 time every 15 seconds for 1 minute!

Is the so called "alien" baby real? Or simply a squirrel monkey?

Posted by admin on May 10th, 2011 and filed under squirrel monkey | 3 Comments »

The baby "alien" found in mexico was drowned by the farmer who found it, because he was afraid. Scientist have said it is not from this world, but to me, it definitely looks like a squirrel monkey.

Dude…. come on now…

Of course it is not real…

How many times does "alien" stuff have to turn out to be fake before you will stop commenting on crazy s$!t…

Divide your animals into 2 groups as evenly as possible (not necessary but efficient). Then keep dividing each group until you get down to single species. You might want to start by separating the New World monkeys from the Old World ones.
