Popular Post WinnieTheKhwai Posted January 16, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted January 16, 2013 And now for something completely different.. The smallest mammal in the world lives in our region.. Amazing all the wildlife we're never really aware of, and it could be right under our noses! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Semper Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Are they barbecued or wok fried? Considering the size, I'd say wok fried like crickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellodolly Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Are they barbecued or wok fried? If barbecued what kind of barbecued sauce do you use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daoyai Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 If that was right under my nose, ....I would know. It is fascinating,..... would like to see them fly out of their cave in a swarm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Humbugged Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 At least vulnerable....there is still time. Jokes about bbq'ing a near extinct animal are not funny. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinnieTheKhwai Posted January 16, 2013 Author Share Posted January 16, 2013 Thanks for sharing at least there's some wildlife worth mentioning in the area. Well, there's quite a bit when it comes to small mammals.. Like civets, various wild cats, monkeys/gibbons, deer, pocupines and pangolins, and Giant Flying Squirrels (see pic). May even be some tigers around. A good list of endangered mammals in Thailand that lists their habitat is here: http://chm-thai.onep.go.th/RedData/PDF/Mammals.pdf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trainman34014 Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Good stuff. Makes me want to go out and find rare creatures like Farang that will smile at me as they also seem to be near extinct. Other animals can certainly be a lot more interesting these days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phronesis Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Saw these little guys 27 years ago in a remote cave near Mae Ai. A king cobra was making very short work of them...like someone snacking on popcorn... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
