because you don’t want to upset a bull by sticking things all over its face do you ?  note the slobber

ducks with a nice long necks.  i think they could do with some arms stuck on the sides of their bodies

this was a bit unfortunate.  it was a cage with something hidden under some sawdust. no one likes a loser
