    Lobsters can re-grow limbs.

    I had Lobster Thermostat last night.

    I asked the waiter to return it though as the temperature was not right.

    I'm glad they re-grow limbs, they're tasty as ****.

    Anything as stupid as a lobster deserves to be eaten.

    Animal Fact of the Day 2. Lobsters can get into lobster traps very easily and could get out too but they are too "hypnotized" by the bate.

    Stupid ****ers.

    If you took a lobster out of the sea and put it in a tank then ripped off one of its limbs would it grow back? i ask only because if it did then you could use the severed one to batter a badger to death safe in the knowledge that as well as keeping down TB levels you're doing it very sustainably.

    The peregrine falcon is by far the fastest creature on the planet, beating the cheetah into second place with a max recorded speed of 183 mph <yikes>

    If you cut an earthworm in half only the part with the head will survive, not both, as we were all told.

    I am indeed - I just like banging on about beating up badgers. It's a hobby of mine (talking about it on the internet not actually doing it).....

    A very good idea. maybe we sould use the lobster limbs to kill badgers and possibly as an eco-fuel for the future.

    By the way, a star fish can be eaten by a fish and if one wee bit of leg survives it'll grow back into a full starfish. Animal Fact of the Day 3 (I know, I'm spoiling you guys today).

    183mph when it is diving, but it is pretty average when it is flying normally.

    If you put a penguin in a sack and drop it from the roof of St Pauls cathedral it will die. FACT.

    How ****e is that? I'm pretty sure I could nearly make 183mph if I was falling from a high enough height.

    Don't question me, I've worked all this stuff out.

    I curse you Glasgow for your short buildings.

    What if it landed on a bouncy castle though? Or in one of those massive paddling pools you can get from Argos for £30?

    It will only die if it hit the hard surface which is the ground. If you dropped and caught it with something soft, it will not die. FACT
