Enoch's Animals

A few experiences Enoch has had with animals the last few days.

1. Enoch was assigned to do an animal report for his class in anticipation for their upcoming field trip to the zoo. Enoch chose to learn about honey badgers. Really? I didn't even knew they existed. However Enoch learned that they live to Russia, India and Africa. They eat honey brood (honey bee eggs), like to dig and are among the most fearless animals in the world. They are quite ugly, but Enoch thinks they are way cool!

2. Enoch found a giant beetle in our yard. He carried that thing around in his hand for about 45 minutes. When I saw him next, his beetle was gone. Enoch said he decided to go home. "But he pooped in my hand before he left. It was awesome!" Hmmm.

3. Enoch came home from school today with his face and neck completed covered in mud (I wish I had gotten a picture). I asked him what in the world he was doing. He said, "I was walking home and was really hot. I saw some mud and decided to cool off like an elephant. So I covered myself in mud like elephants do. It was very cooling!" Huh, whatever.
