                     NOTE FROM THE LIST VET:

          The secret of carrier pigeons' uncanny ability
          to find their way home has been discovered by
           British scientists: the feathered navigators
         follow the roads just like we do. Bet they can't
               fold maps as well as we can, though.


      The Top 8 Scientific Discoveries About Animal Behaviors


 8> Birds fly in a "V" formation because too many mid-air 
    collisions resulted from their original formation of the
    capital Greek letter Xi.

 7> Dogs wag their tails to disperse farts before anyone can 
    blame them for real.

 6> Cats are actually quite capable of performing simple household
    chores; they just choose not to.

 5> Mules aren't really stubborn. They just don't want anyone to
    think they're wussies.

 4> Your pooch circles his bed before he lies down because jumping
    up and down on it is too silly.

 3> Bears hibernate because they can't afford cable all winter 
    long.

 2> Most canines are really frat boys trapped in dogs' bodies.


               and the Number 1 Scientific Discovery 
                      About Animal Behaviors...


 1> Extensive poultry experiments have shown that absolutely 
    nothing is accomplished by crossing the road.
