3. A face you could grow to love

It's kind of like a Boston Terrier, so ugly and small, it's kind of cute. Those are funny eyes.

4. That was fascinating. Thanks for posting that.

The marketing comments are very interesting. I really hadn't considered that prior to reading this.

I'm glad more of an effort is going to protect the habitat instead of selected animals.
