Sea otter pup grooming | BirdForum
...Sea otters possess the densest fur of any mammal?an astounding 600,000 to one million hairs per square inch!

Headless birds - BirdForum
...Whilst out yesterday I came across a dead Blackbird and a House Sparrow (in the same area), each had had their head removed. The bodies had not been eaten at all and there weren't any scattered feathers. Each bird looked perfect and tidy (not the right word but I can't think how else to......
