But can he see why kids love Cinnamon Toast Crunch?
(UHH... 'TWAS ORDAINED BY THE NEVERBORN?)
Beat it, bonehead! There's cinnamon sugar swirls in every bite! Mmm...
An undying part of this balanced breakfast.
It's time for rat fact number TWO

I guess this is what would happen if a werewolf bit a skeleton.
Engineers going to uni for years to learn what beavers 🦫 know intuitively. Embarrassing.
Asiatic Brush-tailed Porcupine (Atherurus macrourus)
(Photo in public domain)
Conservation Status- Least Concern
Habitat- Southern Asia
Size (Weight/Length)- 80 cm
Diet- Leaves; Bark; Fruits; Flowers; Roots; Nuts; Seeds
Cool Facts- The Asiatic brush-tailed porcupine loves the tropics, sticking to bamboo and palm forests. They find themselves at home in thick underbrush where burrows keep them safe. Multiple Asiatic brush-tailed porcupines can end up living in the same burrow system, working together to defend their home from predators. They are generally nocturnal and spend only a few hours each night outside of their burrow. When encountering a predator, these porcupines can run as fast backwards as they can forwards. This results in a leopard or human being embedded with hundreds of quills.
Rating- 12/10 (The rarest porcupines of South Asia.)
Next time you make a grilled cheese sandwich, instead of cooking it in butter, try inventing a special glue that lets you walk up and down any surface
Scared of snakes? No worries… this one’s actually a lizard! Meet the slender glass lizard (Ophisaurus attenuatus). While you might spot it coiled up like a snake to intimidate foes, the resemblance is only superficial. Unlike snakes (which have ocular scales called brilles), this reptile has eyelids that can blink. Whereas snakes “hear” through vibrations, the slender glass lizard has ear holes (like humans). And while snakes can dislocate their jaw bones to swallow large prey whole, the slender glass lizard cannot. It typically dines on pint-sized prey like insects and small reptiles.
