Greetings Animal Lovers!

Welcome to Animal Husbandry 101, this is the place for all things animal.

Did you get a new pet? Tell us about it.Do you have a question about pet care? Ask it here. Are you thinking about getting a pet? Let us know.

There are a great many animal lovers at Tweb anxious to hear about and join in the fun.

In addition to the regular set of rules called the DECORUM, others rules will be enforced here as well.

1) Please keep all pets on a leash.
2) Please clean up after those pets that aren't quite paper trained.
3) Gerbils are not good pets. It's a long story

Thank you and let the games begin.

    I had to stop myself twice that last post to double check that that was actually what it was called.

    At the risk of repeating myself, angkole-watusi is a sub-breed of sanga cattle. sanga is an umbrella term for several sub-breeds, one of which is angkole-watusi.

    Heh. Watusi.

    A white horse is also a horse. A country club republican can also be simply referred to as a republican

    Bing rewards - I just got a $5 Amazon gift card. Cattle was just something that struck my fancy to look up
    $5 and you're looking for cattle? What year do you think this is, 1870?

    ... yeah, I know, but the joke was too easy.

    same pic applies to both.

    What were you doing looking up cattle breeds (question 1) on Bing (question 2) in the first place?

    Looks like the latter is a sub-breed of the first.

    I can't get a good resolution on your screenshot, but it looks like they have the same picture with two different labels... right next to each other.
