And lastly, am I just me, or don't you find it odd (or offensive) when school sports teams differentiate their male and female squads. For example, if they call the boys the Hawks, Tigers, Cougars, etc. and the girls are the Lady Hawks, Lady Tigers, Lady Cougars etc. But in nature, the females can be just as fierce and tough as the males, and even moreso when protecting their young. I don't know. Maybe I'm just me.

Happy Hump Day, everyone!
