The first is this geeky apple researcher. Using tumblr with an easy, clean and efficient interface was my goal. Why do hippos sometimes eat meat? With the advent of the internet and social media, more and more people are observing these previously undocumented hippo mannerisms. WIRED: Who else was involved in promoting this?

The source of this problem is tumblr.com.

It was foolish, Burnham felt, to “fritter away our money and time on silly, emotional things as proposed by so-called animal lovers” at a time when America roiled with so many substantial opportunities and terrors.

He was a really slippery fellow.

Rather than bring in new animals that could take advantage of landscapes that didn't seem that productive, we basically engineered those landscapes into more pasture, and we packed more and more of the same kinds of animals onto that new land.

Today is a sad day. I think there's actually something beautiful about the idea that Congress would have a hearing on hippopotamus ranching.

In two instances, Dudley observed hippos capturing and devoured prey as well as scavenging upon carcasses.
In 1995, biologist Joseph Dudley documented hippos eating meat for the very first time in Zimbabwe’s Hwange National Park.

You were literally taking one problem and using it to solve another problem. Each was sworn to kill the other. So you'd transplant the hippos into these environments that aren't totally unlike where they live in Africa.
Obviously, they decided that my site was no longer acceptable and they set up specific rules so that tumbex users no longer have access to the contents of tumblr. Because to be honest, their interface is really to be reviewed (otherwise you would not be here).

At the same time, there was a real problem with invasive water hyacinth plants; there still is in fact. Yet, Dudley’s observations were only the tip of iceberg. Burnham once called him the “human epitome of sin and deception.” During the Boer war the two men were assigned to kill each other. They were basically open to everything. (Years later he would prepare two versions of a prologue for his memoirs and label them “Boastful” and “Non-Boastful.” The “Boastful” version was hardly boastful, and the last paragraph of the “Non-Boastful” version began: “If mine seems a rather boastful recital, I shall apologize.”) One acquaintance would call him “the most complete human being who ever lived.”Burnham had come to the hotel in Pasadena to address the Humane Association of California at its second annual convention, a banquet hall full of do-gooders, dedicated to the prevention of cruelty to animals. There were also proposals for importing antelope and building ostrich farms.

One interesting thing about the hippo plan was that people were imagining that because hippos were so large you would not be able to ship them to the stockyards in Chicago like all the other animals. He looked bronzed and weather-beaten, like a living monument to those campaigns, and though small—he was only about five foot four—his presence was imposing. One admirer would describe him as “emphatically a man’s man: able, active, alert.” The impression he gave was immediately one of “force and self-control.”. Commanding officers described him as half jackrabbit and half wolf, or as “a man totally without fear.” But ultimately, the most impressive thing about Burnham may have been his reticence to talk too much about his conspicuous impressiveness.

In the early years of the last century, the U.S. Congress considered a bold and ingenious plan that would simultaneously solve two pressing problems -- a national Mooallem: It's an interesting thought experiment. We’ve never seen a sighting like this though.

For each of our meats including Rabbit, Venison, Ostrich, Boar, pheasant, Bison, Elk, quail meat and more. They were disciplined, self-sufficient, preternaturally competent. It seems they never met in battle. These were peak years of immigration, cities were exploding, the meat industry was getting bigger and uglier but it could not keep up.

Every so often herbivores get an iron deficiency and a deficiency of minerals that are generally found in meat.

Other meat-eating instances could simply be opportunism. This week in The Atavist, writer (and WIRED's Mr. Know-It-All columnist) Jon Mooallem describes the hippo ranching scheme and the story of two fascinating men behind it: one a modest frontiersman and soldier of fortune, the other a self-aggrandizing con man. He didn’t necessarily respect them, though.

Burnham was here at the Maryland Hotel to call these animal lovers to a higher purpose, to gather them behind an idea.
