Photo - Pygmy Hippo

This will link to a picture of a pygmy hippo calf on Flickr:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/bobby-jo/3067208810/in/pool-ilovehippos

It was taken by someone calling themselves 'meercat woman.'
I found the picture interesting and slightly disturbing at the same time.
Though it looks like it could make a good pet - it would probably eat any veges you didn't want.

Another thing I found interesting and disturbing was the discription of the group - ***Pygmy Hippos*** - on Flickr:

" For sharing photographs of pygmy hippos ONLY. No other types of hippo or other animals. No toy, ornamental or dead hippos. All photographs that do not comply with these rules will be deleted."

They sound like they mean business.
I took my leave of Flickr before I began to dwell overmuch on the prospect of pictures of dead hippos.

The Amazing Challenge

Ok, I'm cheating a little bit here as this is a blog I had to create for one of my courses a few months ago, but you take the good with the bad I suppose!

My goals for the Amazing Challenge are to change my (usual) attitude from one of assuming I will find something difficult, to one of embracing a new challenge as something I will achieve.

Also I aim to make time to complete the Amazing Challenge itself.
