I'd love to stumble upon 'land art' in the wild.

Right? I'm not sure how she makes her pieces, but they're amazing.

My son had a lot of pets when he was a kid. I let him have mice, then gerbils, then rabbits. He was disappointed with the mice - all they did was smell bad and make the mouse wheel squeak all night and keep him awake. I suppose the folks in New Hampshire bought a pair of mice thinking that one solo mouse would die of loneliness without a mouse companion. But breeding rapidly is something all rodents are renowned for. And, like tribbles, they can be born pregnant. It's just that once in a while you'll go to fill the water bottle and see baby mice that weren't in the tank yesterday.

Mice and gerbils sometimes eat their newborns. It's disturbing to see half a baby mouse in the corner of the tank.
