Dinosaur Academy's 1st "Student of the Month"
Student Quote: "I'm the king of campus, and I couldn't have done it without Dutchduane (FTF)!"
Yearbook photo:
Name: Can you guess?
Age: Maastrichtian (upper Cretaceous, 66-68 million years)
Grade: Apex predator!!! Now that I'm grown, I'm at the top of the food-chain.
Favorite food: Meat, of course, and I prefer to hunt my own food. It may surprise you to learn, however, that I'm also very environmentally-conscious - if I find someone's leftovers to scavenge, I'll definitely make sure it doesn't go to waste. I have a very well-developed sense of smell, so I can find my favorite foods from a long distance.
Most embarrassing fact about me: My arms are so short, have so few fingers (two per paw!), and have such a limited range of motion that scientists aren't completely certain how I use them. I've heard that I use them for getting back up after laying down, holding my food while I eat (hey, sometimes it's still moving!), and a couple of other explanations, but they're all wrong - I use my arms to wave pom-poms and throw popcorn at our school's football games.
Voted "Most Likely To"... get a backache from standing up straight. I know I'm posed all tall and majestic in my photo, but I usually walk with my head and spine at about the same height and positioned parallel to the ground.
After I graduate, I want to... star in a series of live-action movies about dinosaurs chasing and eating humans (you'll get to see me use my arms!).
About my cache... I can run very quickly (my most commonly reported speed is 25 mph or 40 km/h), and you should be able to find my cache quickly, too. Parking should be no problem. A lot of mountain bikers come through the area, so you might need to exercise some stealth while searching. You can open my cache by twisting from the bottom - please don't twist me off my container!
