      I think it's totally adorable!!! My mom used to cross out sections in our bedtime books with notes for the babysitter, "do not read" because, she said later, childhood is short and you have the rest of your life to learn about sad things. You don't need to hear them from anyone else but Mommy and Daddy, in case you have questions. (I think mostly it was a kindness to the babysitter to not have crying kids when the hunter meets Bambi's mom in the woods.)😋 But still, incredibly sweet of you! 🌷

    Hi Seth, I've been here since day one and I'm loving corrections. I've never offered a correction myself, but this week I can't help myself. There are many unambiguously bipedal animals you could have chosen for your example: the kangaroo rat, the gibbon, or the pangolin to name a few. And yet you chose the kangaroo. Kangaroos are not simply bipedal.
    The kangaroo is perhaps unique among animals, as research shows it is the only animal (that we know of) that is *penta*pedal. In a paper published in 2014 in the Royal Society's Biology Letters, researchers show that the kangaroo's tail acts as a fifth leg. The paper's abstract:
    "When moving slowly, kangaroos plant their tail on the ground in sequence with their front and hind legs. To determine the tail's role in this ‘pentapedal’ gait, we measured the forces the tail exerts on the ground and calculated the mechanical power it generates. We found that the tail is responsible for as much propulsive force as the front and hind legs combined. It also generates almost exclusively positive mechanical power, performing as much mass-specific mechanical work as does a human leg during walking at the same speed. Kangaroos use their muscular tail to support, propel and power their pentapedal gait just like a leg."
    royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rsbl.2014.0381
    Even when kangaroos stand or hop without their forelimbs, they generally use their tail as a third limb and exhibit tripedal locomotion (the only animal known to do this besides parrots). Although they are capable of hopping along using only two legs, this bipedal form of locomotion is the equivalent of a human sprinting; it is used relatively infrequently. They also sometimes move quadrapedally using only their fore and hinds limbs.
    To call the kangaroo merely bipedal does not give this unique bi/tri/quad/penta-pedal animal the credit it is due.
    My apologies if scientific research is a bit much for you! If so, please reference this letter written by a zookeeper to a seven year old boy named Isiah. Perhaps that will be more your speed: www.northgeorgiazoo.com/zoo-am-i-blog/just-ask-a-zookeeper-qa#:~:text=Kangaroos%20are%20known%20for%20their,like%20why%20we%20humans%20run.
    Keep up the great work, buddy! And remember, as that friendly zookeeper says, the best way to learn new things is to ask questions!
    EDIT: Here is a video of a kangaroo using pentapedal locomotion if anyone is interested:

    Seth, I'm going to make you happy by correcting a jackal. Charlotte's thorax did NOT burst open to let all her babies out. This is incorrect on two parts. First off, she had an egg sac, which she explained in great detail to Wilbur and which Templeton the rat retrieved to take back to the farm for the spiderlings to hatch from. Second, because spiders do not have a thorax that is separate from their other body parts. Their head and thorax are fused together into a cephalothorax, which is tiny compared to the spider's abdomen. But even the abdomen would not have burst, because egg sac.

I'm just imagining a whole nesting doll situation with Cue card people, Brain holds Wally's card, Mike holds Brain's cards, Leo holds Mike's cards, Ralph holds Leo's cards, Donatello holds Ralph's cards, and so on and so on.

    Well it's come to this, I'm joining the jackals, dear Seth. As a doctor, I love the joke, but if you say to a patient with ED, "why is this so hard?" and they say "that's why I'm here", that's actually wrong. Erectile dysfunction is the inability to get and keep an erection firm enough for sex. So, it would NOT be hard. Now, a person can have priapism, which is an erection that won't go down, and that is an emergency, and while technically that is a dysfunction of a normal erection, it's not ED (erectile dysfunction). You know what's hard? Explaining this in a comment.

      a LOT of research & physiology goes into layout of supermarkets, malls etc - there used to be an awesome Australia TV show called the The Gruen Transfer - which discussed "the methods, science and psychology behind advertising" (sounds dull, really funny & entertaining - panel show (with real marketing experts) with lots of comedy -
      the Gruen transfer (also known as the Gruen effect) is the moment when consumers enter a shopping mall or store and, surrounded by an intentionally confusing layout, lose track of their original intentions, making them more susceptible to making impulse buys. It is named after Austrian architect Victor Gruen, who disapproved of such manipulative techniques

You don't hear the term too often, as it is primarily used in schools to classify students who may need special ed, similar to LD(Learning Disabled), and CD(Cognitively Disabled). They're typically kids who have experienced some sort of mental/physical abuse, leaving them emotionally stunted, and prone to lashing out....aka "Shoemakered".

    First off, I've loved every corrections. It really is something to look forward to each week, much love for that!
    Next, this is not really a correction, but I've been wondering this for a while: why do you always have a pencil in your hand during corrections? And also, why would you tap it on the lead instead of the gum..? That's not good for the pencil and it leaves marks on the desk.

    CORRECTION: Spiders don't have a thorax like insects do - Spiders and other arachnids have a cephalothorax, which also contains elements of the head, such as the eyes and brain

    A quick correction for the person who commented on Charlotte's thorax bursting: Spiders do not have a thorax, they instead have a body segment called a cephalothorax or prosoma, which is a fusion of the head and thorax of insects. Furthermore, the reproductive organs are held in their other body segment, the abdomen.

      Add to that, the babies are not carried in the spider. They are born from the sack of eggs that she laid. The egg sack is even prominently mentioned in the book, as it describes how Wilber protects the egg sack during the trip back to the farm after the fair.

      So it is still technically a thorax?

    • @JamesEliGallagher
      @JamesEliGallagher 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@alistor3777 I'm not an expert on the subject, but I guess it would depend on how technical one wants to be. It still carries out (edit: certain) functions a thorax would in insects (mainly the attachment point for its legs), but outside of that, I don't know. It certainly could not have babies burst out of it, unless there's some weird Xenomorph type stuff going on.

    A correction of a correction - a meteor can't hit anything. A meteor is purely a visual phenomenon; it's the streak of light left behind a meteorite as it vapourises in the atmosphere. The physical object in question is either a meteoroid (when it's in space) or a meteorite (after it enters the atmosphere).

    • @insane_troll
      @insane_troll 2 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      That is not right. Here is what it says on the NASA website:
      Meteoroids are objects in space that range in size from dust grains to small asteroids. Think of them as “space rocks."
      When meteoroids enter Earth’s atmosphere (or that of another planet, like Mars) at high speed and burn up, the fireballs or “shooting stars” are called meteors.
      When a meteoroid survives a trip through the atmosphere and hits the ground, it’s called a meteorite.

    • @LucenProject
      @LucenProject 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @ Insane Troll's comment highlights that after entering an atmosphere, the object is still classified as a meteoroid, and that upon hitting the ground the classification changes. Your comment only says the change happens "after it enters the atmosphere".
