Hey guys. Tadi boring-boring, aku pergi la bagi bersepah bilik cari buku lama-lama. And, I found a book tellling about deserts around the world. Kinda nice so I feel like sharing it here.. First, ever heard of rocks becoming flowers? Haha. Kinda weird when I read it for the first time. I thought I something is wrong with my eyes but nope... It's true.. It's name is lithops..n_n
There they are. Lithops aka flowering stones aka pebble plants aka living stones.* berapa banyak aka daaa* Nice colour isn't it? Plus, they really look like stones too. Just imagine us walking through desert areas in South Africa. I bet we won't even look twice at the rocks lying in the ground. What to do. Lithops ni cuma keluarkan bunga dia masa hujan. Just imagine how rare that is when we're in the desert. Really nice. Besides, they have many kinds of flowers too. Cer cari dalam atok google. Macam-macam kaler ada. Want some lithops to put at your house? Pi la cari kat gurun belah-belah Afrika nuh*Utaqa dia mai dah*. Haha. Actually, if you want some, you can buy them online. Search la. You'll find it. Next, a famous Disney character, Mickey Mouse can also be found in the deserts of China, Mongolia, Turkmenistan and Kazakhstan. Ni hat Mickey Asia punya la. Kat Afrika pun ada jugak.
There they are. They are called Jerboas and was given the nickname "The Mickey Mouse Of The Desert" *sapa hat bagi taktau*. This animal is quite rare so not much are known about it. But, they're cute aren't they? n_n I'm still confused why they're called Mickey though. Maybe because of their legs. Laju kot binatang ni lari. They may seems small to you, but if they're chased by predators, they can run up to 15 miles per hour. Lebih kurang 24 km sejam. Mak aii. Kalah la den ni haa.. Makan asap je la kalau race ngan dia. Haha. The last one is... Roadrunner!
Yang ni gerenti kenal la kalau layan kartun Roadrunner. Haha. Pity the coyote. No matter how hard he tries, he never gets even to touch the roadrunner. Haha. That cartoon is not that true though. Coyote actually runs way faster than the roadrunner but in the cartoon... Haha. Roket pun kalah kalau Roadrunner tu lari. But, the true part is, real roadrunner can still can get away from coyote. That's because they flies off into the air whenever something chases them. n_n
You can find them in United States and Mexico. And something new that I know about them today is, they're omnivores. n_n
They eat lizards, insects, eggs, fruits and even snakes. n_n Coolio. Pokok kaktus yang tajam tu pun diorang makan. Walaweh. Macam mana la nak makan kaktus tu. Duri belambak.
Haha. I guess that's all for now. Look forward for new posts in the future. n_n
Chiao.
