Time for DRAGONS !!! Del 2

Kategori: fantasi... eller ?

 
 
Då var man på gång igen med tankarna på högvarv och det är dags för del 2 !
Så vart var vi nu? forntida drakar och deras historia va? ja men då har vi den biten avklarad, så dags och ta fram hårdhandskarna och gräva lite djupare till nutidens mysterier, upphittade skelett och kvarlevor från förr. Döda som levande, dom är här och dom är här för att stanna, tycker jag iaf !


Hittade en video och några bilder på en man i kina som hade hittat en drake i sin bakgård. Det regnade en dag när han hörde något från bakgården som lät som en fågel som hade blivit skadad så han gick ut för att kolla men hittade istället en skumt djur som låg på marken. Han dödade den medans hans hund såg på. Han tog bilder och la ut dom.

 
Hittade dock två bilder, är antagligen olika drakar ?
 









Hittar mest bilder och videos så lägger upp allt, så får ni säga vad ni tänker och tycker, något som ser riktigt ut ? :)





 
 
 

Det får räcka för denna gång och hoppas ni tyckte det var intressant iaf :)
Stay tuned för nästa inlägg som kommer bli... Ja det får man se vad som dyker upp i hjärnan ^^
Ha en fortsatt trevlig kväll !

Time for dragons !

Kategori: fantasi... eller ?

It´s time foooor DRAKAR! Okej så vem älskar inte drakar ? Nu blir det mycket Svengelska märkte jag lite i efterhand sådär men vi kör på ändå ! ^^  jag tycker iaf dom är skit coola och vem har sagt att dom bara är fantasi djur, okej a det är många men hur coolt skulle det inte vara att ha sin egen drake ? Jag skulle verkligen inte säga nej till det iaf. Så lite tro får man ha, nothing is impossible if you just Believe, right ? ;) Så keep on believing (stavning ? )
 
(såå söt!)

sooo .. anyway här har ni :)




Vi kan ju börja med att gå tillbaka lite i tiden, dom flesta kulturer har en drake men den mest kända som dom flesta känner till är från Kinesiska kulturen. Så vi kan börja där.

 

Den kinesiska kulturen -
Den kinesiska historikern Chang Qu beskrev år 300 f kr fossiler som just drakben. Fossiler från tex tyrannosaurus kan även påminna om drakar.
Kinas drakar är lyckobringande och symboliserar makt, de ingick i kejsarens sigill.
Den kinesiska draken eller, efter det rikskinesiska uttalet, lóng, (traditionell kinesiska:龍?, förenklad kinesiskt龙?, pinyin: lóng), på många sätt en helt annat varelse än en västerländsk drake, är ett djur i kinesisk mytologi, religion och kultur som också återfinns i angränsande länder och därför ibland kallas orientalisk drake.

Den kinesiska draken är inte som de västerländska (med vilka de troligen inte alls är besläktade), som oftast ses som eldsprutande vidunder utan är vanligen förknippad med vatten och står för makt, vishet, fred och harmoni.

(text lånad från wikipedia)


 

 
Nordiska drakar -
Drakarna var också en viktig del i vikingarnas historia, som ni kanske känner igen från "draktränaren".
Asken Yggdrasil, som höll både gudarnas och människarnas världar i sina grenar, hade tre rötter som drack från varsin källa. På botten av dessa källor, Hvergelmer, satt draken nidhögg och gnagde på en rot. Så småningom skulle nidhögg komma att bita igenom träet, och då ge Yggdrasil slagsida. Detta var inledningen på den stora katastrof som kallades Ragnarök.

Under vikingatiden dyker draken upp som dekoration på tex runstenar och träsniderier. Ibland dekorerade man fören på sina skepp med ett djurhuvud tex. ett drakhuvud.





Lite olika drakar inom olika kulturer - mer bilder mindre text ^^

I persisk mytologi har vi en trehuvud en
- Ahzi Dahaka


Den här krabaten har vi berättelser av från England, Tyskland och Frankrike -
Basilisken

Här har vi en som kommer ifrån Tyskland, England och Österrike -
Dragonetten


I den Grekiska mytologin hittar vi -
Hydran


Från svenska mytologin har vi -
Lindormen


I storbritatien finns denna -
Wyrmen

Från Frankrike -
Wyvern



Tänkt att skriva mer ikväll men tiden drar bara iväg och måste komma in i min egen lilla drömvärld på kudden min. Får skriva resten imorn så detta får bli Del 1.
Så.. Stay tuned för Del 2.
night night

då var det det där om jättar igen ..

Kategori: övernaturligt

Har alltid fascinerats av både små och stora saker, tex djur/insekter för läääänge sedan så skulle tex spindlar vara stora som katter om inte större och hästar små som a grisar kanske ? Första som kom upp i huvudet. Men vi kan ju ta några steg tillbaka och kolla upp just ämnet jättar. Tror ni på sådant ? Djur/insekter/människor som inte slutat växa eller föds större än alla andra. Kan vara one of a kind men också kanske något från förr ? La upp lite bilder på några "människojättar" för ett tag sen och kollat upp lite mer om det. Vissa säger att dom grävt fram dom och att allt är sant. Jättar finns, eller har funnits iaf. Stora människoskelett som legat gömda i flera hundra tusen år. Sägs också att det finns flera skelett i grottor som militären eller regeringen som alltid tar hand om aliens och liknande har mörklagt allt det där. Frågan är varför.. Kanske dom var från rymden eller så var vi så stora förut. Åtminstonde några av oss. Kanske du varit en jätte i ditt förra liv ?

Men det jag tänkte mest på idag var djur/insekter/sjöliv och deras historia om jättarna.



Låt oss börja med ett rätt slemmigt djur som man även kan ha som husdjur. Finns att hitta i mindre storlek i trädgården här i Sverige, dom kallas snäckor med skal och snigel utan skal. Så jag presenterar -
Afrikanska jättesnäckor.

Dom här så kallade jättesnäckorna kan bli upp till 18-20 cm stora i snäcklängd och hela kroppen om den ligger rak så kan den bli upp till 30-40 cm lång, kanske även större och längre. Man kan ju tänka sig hur mycket den väger. Skulle ni vilja prova ha en som husdjur ?
 

Jätte nr 2.
Kinesisk jättesalamander.
Den här krabaten kan bli upp till 180 cm lång. Kanske längre? Den anses vara världens största groddjur och kan bli mer än 80 år gammal.


Jätte nr 3.
Dom är bland dom största insekterna i världen nu för tiden. Här har ni jätte weta.
Deras kroppslängd är 6-10 cm om man inte räknar med benen och antennerna. Dom är också bland dom tyngsta insekterna som finns i världen. Dom har hittat en som vägde 71 gram, dock var den en hona som bar på ägg också.


Jätte nr 4.
Saltvattenkrokodiler. Den största dom fångat är 6.4 meter lång och vägde 1075 kilo. Fångades in i Filippinerna efter 3 veckors jakt,  sades ha attackerat åtskilliga människor och dödat 2 st. Den hålls nu fången i Filippinerna.

Jätte nr 5.
Lite vanligare husdjur kanske har vi härnäst. Men Inte vanligtvis så stora. Här har ni en Belgisk jättekanin. (Belgisk jätte som den också kallas och är världens största kanin ras)  Kan väga över 10 kg men idealvikten brukar ligga vid 7-9 kg. Öronen är minst 16 cm långa helst längre.


Jätte nr 6.
Jättelik färskvattens stingrocka. Lever i floder i Asien och kan väga upp till 5-600 kilo och har även en giftig gadd som kan bli upp till 38 cm.


Jätte nr 7.
Världens största hund. Här har ni George, han är världens största hund. Han väger 115 kg, är 110 cm lång och 2,2 meter lång. Svårt att hålla fast han om han skulle bestämma sig för att bestämma eller springa iväg. Jag tycker det räcker med min hund liksom :P Tror inte att någon skulle vilja råna dig när du går ut med den här hunden iaf.

Och så har vi jätte nr 8. Får bli den sista för idag.
Världens största maneter. Största maneterna kan bli 2 meter i diameter över klockan och ha (bränntrådar) som kan bli över 30-40 meter långa och kan väga upp till 440 lbs (200 kg) om inte mer. Dödliga och vackra. Finns i varmare vatten(den på bilden längst upp är hittad i japan, dock vet jag inte om det är olika maneter på bilderna men troligen)



Då var det slut på jättar men bara för idag. Annars kommer jag sitta uppe hela natten, finns hundratals. Skriv mer än gärna förslag om det är nåt ni vill veta om vad som, eller få reda på eller nåt ämne ni vill att jag ska skriva om. Hope you liked it and have a good evening. :)

hur du kan se dina tidigare liv

Kategori: övernaturligt

Har forskat rätt mycket om ämnet "tidigare liv" och hittade ett sätt man kan kolla vem man var förut, skulle du våga det? Jag har tänkt rätt mycket på om man verkligen ska göra det för jag vet redan att det spökar i mitt hus och det är jag rätt van med. Men just att man ska stå i badrummet, helt kolsvart, ha ett värmeljus som flammar i mörkret och stå och stirra rätt in i spegeln på sig själv, vem vet vem eller vad man skulle få se.


Men vill du och vågar dig på att testa det här så gör du såhär.
- Ta ett sterainljus, storlek eller färg spelar ingen roll.
- Ställ dig i badrummet eller i något annat rum som kan bli kolsvart.
- Tänd stearinljuset och ställ dig framför spegeln. Håll ljuset i högra handen!
- Titta på ditt ansikte i spegelbilden. Håll ljuset högt upp så att du ser ditt ansikte tydligt. Se nu djupt och stilla in i vänster öga, koncentrera dig på pupillen och ha ögat så stilla du kan. Med ditt högra öga ska du samtidigt ha koll på hela ditt ansikte.
- Andas nu lugn och skönt och bara var i din djupandning. Fortsätt hela tiden att titta in i ditt vänstra öga, samtidigt som du håller koll på hela ansiktet i spegelbilden. Successivt kommer nu ansiktsbilder från tidigare liv. Kanske har du varit en man utan tänder? Eller en kvinna med vårta på näsan? Kanske ser du ett barn? Ibland stannar en ansiktsbild kvar lite längre. Ibland växlar det fortare mellan olika ansikten.

Det du upplever är en resa i dina tidigare liv och utseenden.



Så best of luck och berätta gärna vad ni såg om ni provade ! :) och säg till om ni vill att ja ska skriva om nåt speciellt eller har några ideer till bloggen :)

Habitat: pelagic zones of subtropical and tropical oceans
Status: Not evaluated


If you've seen the movie Oceans then you will probably recognize this bizarre creature. If you haven't seen the movie I HIGHLY recommend it - the cinematography is absolutely breathtaking. But this creature here is a Blanket Octopus defined by the long transparent webs that are connected to the arms of the adult female octopus.

What's funny about these creatures is their pronounced sexual dimorphism - females can grow to over 2 meters in length whereas the teeny males only reach around a few centimeters!

Blanket octopuses also have a few tricks up their sleeves. The creatures are immune to the venom of Portuguese Man o' War and will actually rip off the jellyfish's tentacles and carry them around for their own defense.

The most impressive defense mechanism though stems from the Blanket Octopuses lack of ink. Instead of using ink to scare off predators, the female (when threatened) will unfurl her large net-like membranes which billow gracefully in the water behind her. This "blanket" greatly increases her apparent size and I'm sure scares the bajeezes out of any potential predator.

Check out this great video of the Blanket Octopus unfurling her "blanket" and swimming about:

This gorgeous starfish is a Blue Bat Star (Asterina pectinifera). Asterina is a genus of small sea stars within the family Asterinidae. Asterina belongs to a confusing family of sea stars - There is not yet enough adequate molecular evidence for a definite assignment of the species in the genus Asterina.

This looks like something straight out of a Van Gogh painting. Imagine coming across this in a tidepool!

This deep sea Comb Jelly (Beroe abyssicola) looks like something from another world. I think that the deep sea is one of my favorite biomes on Earth. Every time I see a creature from down below it shocks me - these things are just sooo bizarre! Not to mention it's incredible that ANYTHING can survive the extreme cold and pressure under the sea like that.

Photographer Alexander Semenov captured some incredible photos of this rarely seen jelly. I love how you can see inside the creature as well as it's gorgeous rainbow cilia (what it uses to move around with).

Meet the python of the deep sea. This is the Black Swallower (Chiasmodon niger), a fish that really bites off more than it can chew! Only reaching lengths of a mere 10 inches, size isn't the intimidating factor associated with this creature, it's its appetite!

Black Swallowers get their name from swallowing their prey, which consist of bony fish, whole. Now here's where things get really weird - its food can be over twice the swallower's size and TEN TIMES its mass!

Most specimens that have been recovered were found after undigested fish inside the [already dead] swallower produced gases that sent the sucker ballooning up to the surface of the ocean where it could be collected.

Thanks Jennifer Paul, for recommending this creature!

This totally radical *said in surfer dude voice* creature is the Psychedelic Frogfish (Histiophryne psychedelica). It was first described in 2009 by Ted Pietsch, Rachel Arnold, and David J. Hall in the scientific journal Copeia, where they described it as having "a remarkable pigment pattern of white swirling stripes", hence their use of the term psychedelic. One of the strange features of the Psychedelic Frogfish is that it doesn't have scales. In fact, all members of the order Lophiiformes have flabby, fleshy skin which is sometimes covered in a protective mucous. Ew.

The pattern of stripes on the Psychedelic Frogfish acts much like zebra stripes or the spots on humpback whale tails in that it is unique to that particular frogfish. Scientists can identify the frogfish, therefore, by its unique fingerprint-like pattern.

One of my favorite things about this fish is its form of locomotion. Normally the frogfish uses its hand-like fins to walk along the bottom of the ocean. However, in some cases it will use its fins to push off from the ocean floor while at the same time shooting water through its gills to propel itself forward via jet propulsion. The reason why this is so cool is that when doing so, the fish takes on a ball shape, making it look like a trippy beach ball floating through the water. Gnarly!

Fanfish Seadevilimage credit: David Shale, thedeepbook.org
Habitat: deep, lightless waters of the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans

So I just finished watching Silence of the Lambs, which always thoroughly scares the bajeepers out of me, and I decided I was in the mood to write about a scary creature. Little did I know that my search would lead me to the Fanfish Seadevil. I regret making that decision more than you could know, because on top of images of Hannibal Lecter eating human faces I now have this embedded in my mind.

This type of anglerfish is distinguished from others by its lack of an expanded escal bulb - the bioluminescent lure that anglerfish use to entice their prey towards their jagged-toothed mouths - and by the very long dorsal & anal fin rays.

They also like little guys, as the male only gets to be a 1/2 inch long, while the female is 8 inches or more. I'll never understand that attraction.

Well, off to some gruesome nightmares!

No Halloween special would be complete without a creepy deep sea fish or two so here's the deep sea Hatchetfish. It's large bulbous eyes have evolved to cope with the near darkness of its habitat by allowing it to see even the faintest bit of light.

To me these fish don't really look that scary they look more sad. Maybe they're crying out to us for companionship, since I would assume living hundreds of meters below the surface of the ocean must be grounds for a very lonely existence. Not sure I would go out of my way to help befriend them though...

Here is one of the most alien lifeforms I've ever read about... that's found right here on Earth. These are Tardigrades, or more commonly called 'water bears' or 'moss piglets.' These peculiar beings look like miniature gummy bears but are really microscopic animals that live in the water, are segmented, and have 8 legs. The name water bear comes from the way that they walk, which resembles that of a lumbering bear. The largest adults may reach lengths of around 1.5 millimetres, whereas the smallest may reach lengths below 0.1 mm. Typically you can find these guys on lichens or mosses, which is where their other name of 'moss piglet' stems from.

Photobucket

One of the most interesting aspects of the moss piglet, or water bear, is the ability it has to survive, and even flourish, in environments that we typically think of as uninhabitable. Some can survive temperatures of close to absolute zero (which is −459 °F, mind you); others can withstand temps as high as 304 °F. Not only that, they can take 1,000 times more radiation than other animals, and can go a DECADE without water! Insane!!!

Oh, and last but not least, they can survive in space. So watch out, because water bears might take over the universe someday [soon].

The Red Gurnard (Chelidonichthys spinosus)is one of 100 different species of Sea Robins, or Gurnards. These fantastic fish are normally found on the sea floor at depths of around 660 ft. They have a special set of 'wings,' which are actually just beautiful pectoral fins, that allow them to "fly" through the water. They also possess six spiny feet that allow them to walk across the ocean floor in search of food.

Growing to around 30cm in length, I'd have to say this is one of the most bizarre and beautiful species of fish I've seen in a while... and that's saying something!

Everyone has to start somewhere. In the case of some fish, this means beginning their lives in the larval stage, eating microscopic creatures until they transition into their ultimate big-bodied selves.

Now here's a creature from the black lagoon if I ever saw one! This is the Smooth Lumpsucker (Aptocyclus ventricosus), the Pacific Spiny Lumpsucker's fat and ugly cousin.

These guys are very appropriately named, with their drab coloration and not exactly pageant-ready appearance with those bulbous lumps. The sucker part of its name is derived from the modified pelvic fins which have evolved into suction-cup like discs that the Smooth Lumpsuckers use to attach themselves to rocks (see the 2nd to last picture).

I still think these guys deserve a hug :)

I'm sure everyone has owned a pet goldfish at one point in their lives. I know mine committed suicide when I was 5 by jumping out of their fishbowl when I came home from school one day. That wasn't traumatizing or anything...

Anyways, did you ever own a fancy-shmancy Celestial Eye Goldfish? These guys are defined by their
eyes which are turned upwards, pupils gazing skyward.

The first documentation that Celestials existed appears on a Chinese scroll of 1772, where a goldfish lacking a dorsal fin and possessing protuberant upturned eyes is depicted.

Cuties. Still bet mine wouldn't survive more than a few days though :(

Now here's a really weird creature for ya. It resembles something out of an alien movie, possibly mixed with Mayan sculpture attributes? I could see people revering these things since, I mean, it's so weird I wouldn't want to do anything that would upset it ya know? It's called a Stargazer and here's some good news: they're found everywhere!!

With over 50 species inhabiting shallow waters around the globe, you could definitely encounter this creature if you're ever diving in the ocean, though you might not even notice it. Stargazers bury themselves in the sand so that only their eyes and mouth are exposed (their eyes always look to the sky, hence their name).

When a fish swims overhead THEY better have revered that ugly fish or it won't be looking good for them. The Stargazers leap upward and snatch up the prey before you can say "WHAT THE - ". Some even have lures on their heads to draw the fish closer.

Oh and if that isn't enough, every Stargazer is venomous with two poison spines hidden above the pectoral fins and near the gills. Electric shocks are also in this fish's arsenal.

Better get praying.

Now here's a fish with the epitome of a 'big mouth.' Meet the Sarcastic Fringehead (Neoclinus blanchardi) - an aggressive and bizarre fish that defends its territory by battling rivals with their terrifyingly large open mouths. The Sarcastic Fringeheads will press their mouths together, as if they were kissing, to determine who has the biggest mouth, and therefore the overall bigger fish. No one is safe from the Sarcastic Fringehead's wrath, as even divers have been attacked when crossing into the fish's territory unknowingly.
Growing up to 12 inches in length with virtually no scales, the fringeheads appear almost eel-like. Though, to me they resemble the Predators that always seem to fight with those pesky Aliens.
Alien vs. Predator (or Sarcastic Fringhead)?
Now check out this video from BBC's Life, narrated by my boy David Attenborough, on the Sarcastic Fringehead. Fast forward to 2:12 to see that infamous gaping mouth!

Habitat:
outer continental shelf and upper to middle continental slope of the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans
Status: Near Threatened

This rarely observed and strange looking creature is a Frilled Shark. The species made headlines in 2007 when a Japanese fisherman spotted the shark near the ocean's surface and transported it to a marine park for observation. Normally the shark is found thousands of feet below the water's surface so it was speculated that this one came up because it was either injured or sick. Looks like that was true, because the Frilled Shark unfortunately died hours later.

The bizarre creature hasn't changed much in its evolutionary history, which is why it is known as a "living fossil." With it's eel-like body and odd lizard-like head, some cryptozoologists have attributed sea serpent sightings of yor to the Frilled Shark.

The shark is named for its six pairs of collar-like gills with frilly edges. Like most aspects of the Frilled Shark, how it eats is a mystery. However, some believe that it captures its prey by bending its body and lunging forward like a snake.

Here's the footage taken from the Japanese marine park when the living specimen of the Frilled Shark was captured:

Ah, the holidays. Such a wonderful time of the year don't you think? You get to see family, get great presents, and of course indulge in some sugary foods. Making holiday cookies is always a fun thing to do with kids; I remember I used to love picking out different cookiecutter shapes to make some cool designs out of the dough. I bring this up because this fish is the demented version of just that. Enter the Cookiecutter Shark.

A relatively small creature, the Cookiecutter Shark reaches only 17-22 inches in length but its size doesn't take away from its nasty demeanor. Cookiecutter Sharks get their name from their gross habit of gouging out large chunks of flesh from other marine creatures, much like a cookiecutter (see the 3rd picture from the bottom). It uses its saw-like teeth and suction cup-like lips to latch on and then gnaw through the poor creatures body. There have also been several reported cases of human bodies found with "cookiecutter wounds."

Another odd feature of the shark is that it is bioluminescent. It glows bright green and has even been observed to do so for three hours after being taken out of the ocean. However, it does have a small dark patch that is unaffected by the luminescence which looks like a small dark fish. The Cookiecutter uses this patch to attract larger creatures which it then proceeds to munch on.

So who's in the mood to make some cookies now?!?

Rosy Lipped BatfishHabitat: Costa Rica's Coco Islands

I don't know if fire engine red is really this Rosy Lipped Batfish's best color. I was thinking more of a pale pink? You know, for a more natural look. Oh wait... this is natural! How silly. The rosy lipped batfish is most recognizable by - you guessed it - it's luscious lips and bizarre pectoral fins that act like arms, allowing it to walk along the ocean floor. Strut that stuff you sexy batfish!

Over the past few years, rumors have circulated in Japan about the existence of gigantic humanoid life-forms inhabiting the icy waters of the Antarctic.

Antarctic ningen humanoid --
Hello, Ningen

Reportedly observed on multiple occasions by crew members of government-operated "whale research" ships, these so-called "Ningen" (lit. "humans") are said to be completely white in color with an estimated length of 20 to 30 meters. Eyewitnesses describe them as having a human-like shape, often with legs, arms, and even five-fingered hands. Sometimes they are described as having fins or a large mermaid-like tail instead of legs. The only visible facial features are the eyes and mouth.

According to one account, crew members on deck observed what they initially thought was a foreign submarine in the distance. When they approached, however, it became clear from the irregular shape of the thing that it was not man-made -- it was alive. The creature quickly disappeared under water.

Ningen?

For the most part, the existence of the Ningen is considered an urban legend. Much of the information about this rumored creature can be traced back to a series of posts on the 2channel forums, written by a person describing the experience of a friend employed on a government "whale research" vessel. (Read the full Japanese text of the original story that first appeared on a 2channel forum.)

Ningen?

The popular thread attracted the attention of many readers from outside the 2channel community, and the November 2007 issue of MU magazine, a Japanese publication devoted to the study of paranormal phenomena, featured an article about the Antarctic humanoids.

The article speculated on the possibility of unidentified creatures inhabiting the southern seas, and it included a Google Maps screenshot showing what looks like a Ningen in the South Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Namibia.

To date, no solid evidence has been presented to confirm the existence of the Ningen. The government is believed to have kept detailed records of the sightings, but they have released no information to the public and have reportedly instructed eyewitnesses to remain silent


Ningen sightings seem to occur most frequently at night, making them all the more difficult to photograph. In still images, the sea cryptids mostly just look like icebergs, though it is said that their smooth, human-like skin can be seen when the photographs are enlarged.

In any case, no convincing photographs have been made public, either because they do not exist or because, as some argue, the government does not want to invite undue scrutiny and tarnish the scientific reputation of the whale research program.

Cobalt blue tarantula



The cobalt blue tarantula (Haplopelma lividum) is a tarantula species that is native to Myanmar and Thailand.

The cobalt blue tarantula is a medium size tarantula with a leg span of approximately 13 cm (5"). The cobalt blue tarantula is noted for its iridescent blue legs and light gray prosoma and opisthosoma, the latter of which may contain darker gray chevrons.[1] Males and females look the same until the ultimate (final) molt of the males. At this point the male will exhibit sexual dimorphism in the form of a light tan or bronze coloration and legginess. Additionally males will gain embolus on the pedipalps and tibial apophysis (mating hooks). The cobalt blue tarantula is a fossorial species and spends nearly all of its time in deep burrows of its own construction.

Habitat

The cobalt blue tarantula inhabits the tropical rain forests of southeast Asia.[2] Here they construct deep burrows, and generally only leave them to find food.


Pets

The cobalt blue tarantula is a mainstay in the pet trade, however it should only be kept by experienced keepers. Being a fast and defensive tarantula with potent venom[3] means that it should not be handled, and its reclusive nature means it is rarely seen. Typical care requirements include a deep tank with 25 to 30 cm (10-12 inches) of substrate such as peat moss or coco-husk.[4] Being from a tropical region they require constant high humidity and should be provided with an open water dish. Tarantulas are generally offered 1-2 prey items (such as crickets) once weekly.






Flower crab spider








Zopherinae is a subfamily of
beetles, commonly known as ironclad beetles. Together with the subfamily Usechinae they have been treated historically as a family, but have recently been joined by several additional taxa, making the Zopheridae a much larger composite family, and the Zopherinae are now only a small component within it, consisting of 7 genera in the tribe Zopherini and one genus, Phellopsis in its own tribe (Phellopsini).

These beetles are apparently fungivores and associated with rotting wood, and as the common name implies, have one of the hardest of all arthropod exoskeletons; in some species, it is almost impossible to drive an insect pin through their bodies without using a small drill to make a hole first.

When disturbed, ironclad beetles will play dead.

Some species in the genus Zopherus in Mexico are decorated with costume jewelry glued to their bodies, and sold as living brooches, known as ma'kech, to be worn on one's clothes.

Hymenopus coronatus (known by a variety of common names including Malaysian orchid mantis, Malaysian orchid praying mantis, pink orchid mantis and orchid mantis) is a mantis from Malaysia, Indonesian, and Sumatran rain forests. These mantises thrive in humid, warm areas of south Asian rain forests. These mantids can be found on papaya trees, orchids, or frangipani trees with flowers. In captivity, the nymph's diet can consist mainly of fruit flies, but they will eat other small insects. Adults will eat anything they can catch; this includes small lizards, bees without stingers, house flies, butterflies, moths and other non-venomous flying insects. Although primarily carnivorous, orchid mantises have been observed eating little bits of banana, this behavior is thought to balance the mantis's vitamin intake through the juices of the banana (which are rich in potassium).

When threatened, the mantis either tries to confuse the predator, or scare it. If lifted into the air, they become vicious, attempting to bite everything within reach. Their predators include lizards, geckos, jumping spiders, toads, birds, rodents, bats, and shrews.

This species is characterized by brilliant and beautiful coloring and unusual structure; their four walking legs resemble flower petals, and the coloration of the bodies tends to match the environment in which they were raised. H. coronatus shows some of the most pronounced sexual dimorphism of any species of mantis; the males are generally less than half the size of the females. Young nymphs resemble ants with orange and black bodies. As the mantis grows in its environment, its color comes to more closely match the coloration of its surroundings with each passing molt. It has been theorized that humidity and intensity of light play a large role in the final coloration of the adult.




Woolly Aphid




Woolly aphids (subfamily: Eriosomatinae) are sucking insects that live on plant fluids, and produces a filamentous waxy white covering which resembles cotton or wool. The adults are winged and move to new locations where they lay egg masses. The larvae often form large cottony masses on twigs, for protection from predators. They come from Japan.

The woolly apple aphid is a pest for fruit growers. Many of the numerous species of woolly aphids have only one host plant species, or alternating generations on two specific hosts.

In flight they have been described as looking like "flying mice", and are given nicknames like "angel flies", "fluff bugs", "Don King bugs", "fairy flies", "Frederick Douglass flies" or "fuzz-butts". Due to their whimsical appearance, some parents tell children that they carry wishes, live in tulips, and much like fairies, are born every time you make a wish on a dandelion.




Orchid mantis




Hymenopus coronatus (known by a variety of common names including Malaysian orchid mantis, Malaysian orchid praying mantis, pink orchid mantis and orchid mantis) is a mantis from Malaysia, Indonesian, and Sumatran rain forests. These mantises thrive in humid, warm areas of south Asian rain forests. These mantids can be found on papaya trees, orchids, or frangipani trees with flowers.

Madagascar sunset moth
Den vackraste fjärilsarten jag sett hittils.


The Madagascan sunset moth or simply sunset moth, Chrysiridia rhipheus, is a day-flying moth of the Uraniidae family. It is considered to be one of the most impressive and beautiful Lepidoptera.[10] Famous worldwide, it is featured in most coffee table books on the Lepidoptera and is much sought after by collectors.[11][12] It is very colourful, though the iridescent parts of the wings do not have pigment; rather the colours originate from optical interference.[7][13] Adult moths have a wingspan of 7–9 centimetres (3–3½ in).

The moth was considered to be a butterfly by Dru Drury, who described it in 1773 and placed it in the genus Papilio. Jacob Hübner placed it in the moth genus Chrysiridia in 1823. Later redescriptions led to junior synonyms such as Chrysiridia madagascariensis (Lesson, 1831).[2]

At first the moth was thought to be from China or Bengal,[14][15] but was later found to be endemic to Madagascar. It is found throughout the year in most parts of the island, with peak populations between March and August, and smallest numbers between October and December. Females lay about 80 eggs under the leaves of Omphalea spp. The caterpillars are whitish-yellow with black spots and red feet and are covered in club-ended black setae. Silk spun from the mouth helps the caterpillars hold onto smooth leaves and climb back to the plant when they fall. After completing four instars, the caterpillars spin an open network cocoon. The pupal stage lasts from 17 to 23 days.[16] Chrysiridia rhipheus is the sole specialist herbivore of the four species of Omphalea in Madagascar. Omphalea is toxic: the toxins are sequestered by the feeding caterpillar and retained in the pupal and adult stages.[17] Thousands of these moths migrate between the eastern and western ranges of their host plants.[

Triangular spider



Female, leg to leg 15mm

This is a beautiful spider. We can easily find them in bushland in Brisbane, although we never saw them in our backyard. Its abdomen is triangular to heart-shaped , with white spots on its bright orange body. Its two pairs of front legs are with strong spines for capturing prey. Its two hind pairs legs are relatively small.
Although they are in this ARANEIDAE family, which is famous in web building, they do not build webs. They only use their silk for safety lines and egg sacs.
Triangular Spiders have very small eyes and expected to have poor eye sight. They do not jump like Jumping Spiders. Instead they employ the sit and wait hunting method.
Sometimes the spider hangs itself in mid air with a few silk wires and waiting for prey.
Usually female has a larger abdomen. Triangular Spiders are sometimes found on or under green leaves, waiting for prey.

Det var allt för idag, blev rätt så mycket iaf. Och imorn ska jag försöka hinna med att skriva om strange animals. Hoppas ni gillar inläggen och om det är något ni vill att jag ska skriva om eller om ni har några ideer, eller bara vill lägga in något ni har själva skrivit så säg till :) Alltid glad över att få nya ideér och förslag och hjälp. Det här är ju som sagt en allmän blogg som förhoppningsvis ska få fler personer att öppna ögonen och se på världen annorlunda. Att få folk att undra, att börja tänka på att det finns mer än bara livet som vi har nu. Många är för upptagna av att tänka på det istället för att se sig omkring, se upp på himlen, se alla detaljer, se alla andra liv än bara människornas. Allting som lever och andas, nya saker som väntar på att få bli upptäckta, framtiden blir bara mer och mer spännande.

Glistening in the early morning, these insects look like creatures from another planet as dew gathers on their sleeping bodies.

Captured in extreme close-up, one moth appears to be totally encrusted in diamonds as it rests on a twig.

Dew insects

Dragonflies, flies and beetles also take on an unearthly quality as the water droplets form on them.

These remarkable photographs were taken by physiotherapist Miroslaw Swietek at around 3am in the forest next to his home.

Using a torch, the 37-year-old amateur photographer hunts out the motionless bugs in the darkness before setting up his camera and flash just millimetres from them.

Mr Swietek said: 'I took up photography as a relaxing hobby two and a half years ago and I particularly like taking pictures of insects and lizards.

'I photograph them in their natural environment in the forest next to my village.

'They all are covered in dew because I go to the forest in the morning at around 3am.

'At 3am to 4am insects are sleepy and taking photos of them is easy, but it is very difficult to find them.

Shower time: Mr Swietek gets up at 3am to capture the insects while they are less active in a forest near his home

'You must be very fast taking the photos because the dew quickly disappears.

'It is very satisfying getting a good shot of an insect which I have had to hunt out.

'I have books which help my identify insects but because they are all covered in dew I find it almost impossible to know which types they are.'

Although insects do not 'sleep' in the same sense as humans, they enter a state of torpor where they are virtually immobile and much less sensitive to external stimuli.

Mr Swietek lives with his wife and teenage son in Jaroszow, a village in Poland around 30 miles from the city of Wroclaw.

Wandering violin mantis



Gongylus gongylodes, also known as the wandering violin mantis, Ornate mantis or Indian rose mantis, is an insect of the order Mantodea. This is one of the more bizarre looking mantises. Characterized by extremely slender limbs with large appendages. It is not a particularly aggressive species and often kept as a pet by hobbyists. It feeds primarily on flying insects. Its native range is in southern India and Sri Lanka. It can reach sizes of up to 11 cm. The males of the species are capable of flight.



Hummingbird moth
Ser ut som kolibri fågeln.

A family of insects (Sphingidae), when in the caterpillar stage, is known as hornworms. About two dozen species of hornworms are found in Colorado. Although all feed on leaves of various plants, most are innocuous, attracting little attention and causing little, if any, injury to garden plants. Tomato and tobacco hornworms, which feed on tomatoes and a few related plants, are an exception, being true garden pests.

Adults of all hornworms turn into large moths, known as "sphinx" or "hawk" moths. Most fly at might and are rarely seen. A few species, however, fly during cloudy afternoons and at dusk when they feed at flowers in a manner similar to that of a hummingbird.




Spiny orbweaver spider



Det är en spindel ja, ser mer ut som ett snäckskal i ett
 spindelnät tycker jag. Men den var as cool.


Spiny orb-weavers is a common name for Gasteracantha, a genus of spiders. They are also commonly called Spiny-backed orb-weavers, due to the prominent spines on their abdomen. These spiders can reach sizes of up to 30mm in diameter (measured from spike to spike). Although their shell is shaped like a crab shell with spikes, it is not to be confused with a crab spider.

Orb-weaver's bites are generally harmless to humans.


Banded alder borer



The banded alder borer, Rosalia funebris, is a member of the very diverse family of longhorn beetles.

Appearance

Like many others in the family Cerambycidae, R. funebris has strikingly colored wing covers (elytra). The elytra are dark with three white bands. The thorax (pronotum) is white with a large black spot. The alder borer's antennae are banded white and black. The male's antennae are longer than his body, but the female's are shorter. Long and narrow, the body of R. funebris may grow to be 38 millimetres (1.5 in).

Rosalia funebris in the second before flight

Distribution

Located along western North America, Alaska through California, and in New Mexico,[1] the banded alder borer may be found in the spring and summer on the bark of alder trees.

The exact reason (pheromone?) is unknown, but R. funebris is drawn to recently painted buildings and may be found, in multitudes, resting on the paint.[2]

Characteristics

A leaf insect in the permanent collection of The Children’s Museum of Indianapolis

Leaf insects use camouflage to take on the appearance of a leaf. They do this so accurately that predators often aren't able to distinguish them from real leaves. In some species the edge of the leaf insect's body even has the appearance of bite marks. To further confuse predators, when the leaf insect walks, it rocks back and forth, to mimic a real leaf being blown by the wind.

The scholar Antonio Pigafetta may have been the first to document the creature. Sailing with Ferdinand Magellan's circumnavigational expedition, he studied and chronicled the fauna on the island of Cimbonbon as the fleet hauled ashore for repairs. During this time he documented the Phyllium species with the following passage.
Jeweled flower mantis


Creobroter gemmatus, common name Jeweled Flower Mantis or Indian Flower Mantis, is a species of praying mantis native to Asia. Males grow to about 1.5 inches (3.8 cm) and females are slightly larger. They prefer a humid environment and live about nine months in captivity. Females can be cannibalistic but males are fairly communal. Cannibalism isn't too common but it is more common than among other flower mantids. They moult 8 times to become an adult and can take between 2 and 5 months to mature depending on food and temperature. They are the smallest yet most widespread creobroter species. They make easy pets with proper care and it is said there is a 90% survival rate among nymphs.


 



Diamond Weevil


Chrysolopus spectabilis (Common names include Botany Bay diamond weevil, Botany Bay diamond beetle and sapphire weevil) is a species of weevil found in south-eastern Australia. It is up to 25 mm (1.0 in) long, with metallic green patterns on a black background. It is a specialist, only known from 28 species of Acacia. It was discovered during James Cook's first voyage, and became the first insect to be described from Australia.




Housing:
She lives in one half of a 10 gallon aquarium with deep bedding, a water dish and a cork shelter. Check out the breeding page for more details on this breeding tank. The smaller one lives in a small round pet-pal.

She started burrowing as soon as she was moved into this cage, and really has a fantastic burrow going. It goes straight down the corner of the cage behind the cork shelter, then around the side. The turret at the top is like a giant cartoon anthill.

The humidity outside the burrow isn't particularly high, but it's probably up around 80% in the burrow. The temp in the spider room is 80-84°F.

Temperment:
The big girl is the psychotic monster that is so well know to those who dare keep her! She's quite unpredictable and may appear calm, but suddenly lash out at the slightest provocation. Chasing this girl around the room is a most disconcerting experience. She mostly hides in her burrow, but will occasionally venture out for a week-long vacation. Of all the spiders in my collection, this is the one I would least like to wake up next to...

The baby is not quite so nasty, but it is naughty and will go on a runabout if bothered. Surprisingly fast little bugger.

Kollade runt lite på youtube förut men hittade några videos om riktiga jättar från förr, tänk om det fanns, ingen vet riktigt, men tycker dom borde prata mer om sånt här på nyheterna och i det borde finnas i tidningen, vem vill inte veta om man hittar en jätte eller nåt liknande, det skulle jag vilja iaf. Om det är verkligen är sant att det här är skelett från utdöda jättar, vad mer finns där ute? vad har funnits och vad kommer härnäst?

The world is truly amazing, the videos and pictures attached to this post is of a series of giant human looking skeletons found in different parts of the world. They have become commonly referred to a humanoid type skeleton known as a Nephilim species that existed over 1000 years ago. Whether all of these images are real or not or if it is all just a hoax I will leave that up to your decision, however if these rare skeletons were of an old human type species they sure would open up doors to other possibilities that were out there. Giant skeletons Maybe Giant Humans Walked the Earth over a thousand years ago.

Possibly this explains why some massive temple like structures were built back in the old days, that look like they were designed for big people. Some scientists also claim it might all be due to the disease gigantism, however I'm sure the size cannot be as big as these unless gigantism was a more effective disease back then.. Whatever it is, these big human skeletons found which they call the Nephilims sure opens up possibilities if they are real.

The story of giants may not be a story at all, but rather lost history that is to this day still being actively covered up. Many have tried presenting these giants as a hoax. It is not a hoax, the hoax is to get you to believe it is a hoax.

The amount of work that would be required to create this hoax and the documented proof of a cover up by the Discovery channel proves something is being hidden from the world. Besides why hasn't anyone else produced a another hoax since these last giant findings disappeared.




There are Real Giant Monsters in the World

This hub is about monsters. Real monsters not imaginary or mythical ones. First we'll see some modern day monsters and then see their prehistoric counterparts.

People have been fascinated by giant creatures for thousands of years. Our ancestors feared and hunted giants such as mastodons, sloths and cave bears. Scientist have pointed to the arrival of humans in North America as the leading cause of extinction of the megafauna living here at the end of the last glacial period about 13,000 years ago.

If you are interested in real and imaginary giant creatures you might enjoy Giant Monsters of the World. I share some interesting information about living giants and mythical monsters.

At this time the continent teemed with giant creatures from 12 foot tall ground sloths to the wooly mammoth. Giant bears that would dwarf the largest polar bear haunted the forests here in America while tortoises bigger than Volkswagen autos and 30 foot long goannas lumbered across ancient Australia.

Real Giant Monster Crocodiles

Prehistoric Giant Monster Crocodile

Sarcosuchus was a true monster crocodile. Imagine a crocodile averaging 40 feet long and weighing in at 16,000 pounds. Imagine it if you will; a reptile predator large as a city bus living in the lakes and rivers of Cretaceous period Africa.

Sarcosuchus is thought to have been the largest crocodile species that ever lived. Paleontologists estimate the animals average weight and length by studying the size, shape and position of skeletal remains and fossil skulls.

Sarcosuchus, at 40 plus feet is only about twice as long as the largest living crocodiles. It was much more massive than modern crocodiles and averaged 8 to 10 tons in weight. Some scientists think the animal needed the extra mass because its prey included dinosaurs and turtles as well as the monstrous fish that lived during the Creataceous Period. Many of the giant lobe finned fish alive during the cretaceous were over 6 feet in length and weighed well over 200 pounds.

Gustav-Giant Monster Crocodile and Man-eater


In the African country of Burundi there lives a monster. Famous as a man eater, Gustav is a nile crocodile over 20 feet long and weighing in at nearly 3000 pounds. Gustav is a notorious predator with a taste for human meat as well as anything else too slow to get away. The exact measurements are uncertain because Gustav has not been captured. Expert eyewitness accounts verify that Gustav is indeed a giant sized Nile crocodile and may be the largest living member of the species. Because he is so massive, Gustav isn't fast enough to easily catch prey such as antelope or gazelles. Reptile experts studying the animal think that is why he hunts slower prey like humans and hippos. Juvenile crocodiles are also on Gustav's menu.

He lives in Burundi and hunts the waters of the Ruzizi River and the north shoreline of lake Tanganyika. Local villagers are frightened witless by this real life monster. They recount that giant Crocodile has eaten at least 300 people during his 60 plus year reign as king of the river.

THIS giant feral pig has been shot dead after it was spotted eating a dead cow on an Australian property. At first considered a hoax, the Sunday Times newspaper has since established the giant pig was established as being killed on the Pilbara cattle station near Perth, Australia. The stationer kept quiet for fear of having his station over run by hunters looking for more giant boars.
Another giant boar was killed by an 11 year old boy in Alabama. This one was 9 feet long and weighed over 1000 pounds.

The Devil Pig

The Entelodont

North America 25 million years ago was home to something truly dire. Imagine a giant boar seven feet high at the shoulder and weighing over a ton with truly nasty eating habits. That's entelodont. While a scavenger this monster would eat anything smaller than itself and would defecate on it's prey to keep scavengers away while it ate.

VERSION AV DE DÖDA WALK Toraja


MO - Kroppen att köra, inte bara en berättelse om Mamasa . Uppenbarligen Toraja det finns några liknande historier. Här är historien om en bloggare , hans erfarenhet tittar döda män som gick.
de ursprungliga Toraja folket, jag ofta tillfrågad av teman2 om den unika kulturen i Tana Toraja, särskilt om fenomenet av döda män som gick. Själv född och uppvuxen i Tana Toraja, så jag vet om seder och kultur i Tana Toraja, även om ingen övergripande kontroll av ursprung och allehanda skit inhemska Toraja.
Historien om döda män som gick har funnits sedan urminnes tider. hundratals år sedan sägs vara inbördeskrig i Tana Toraja som väst Toraja Toraja krig mot öst. kriget besegrades västerländska Toraja människor på grund flesta av dem dödades, men det kommer en tid hem till sina byar i hela västvärlden Toraja liket körs medan öst Toraja även om endast ett fåtal dödades, men de bar kroppar sina döda släktingar, eftersom scenen Striden anses serien. i efterföljande generationer Toraja människor begraver ofta sin kropp på ett sätt den kör sin egen kropp till graven.
Fenomenet "vandrande lik" som jag själv har sett det personligen. Händelsen inträffade omkring 1992 (min nya 3: an). vid den punkt i min by finns det en som heter Pongbarrak vars mor dog. som Toraja traditionell begravning organen inom indirekt men fortfarande måste gå igenom den vanliga liktåget (skyltar solo). tidpunkt då de hade tvättat kropp moderns placeras på en säng i en särskild avdelning innan de tas i kistan. Den tredje natten hela familjen samlades för att diskutera hur begravningen processionen kommer att hållas senare. Jag satt på verandan rådde barnen att vara som att gå tillbaka och tillbaka. men efter mötet avslutats (ca 10 pm), plötsligt var det rörelse i huset där vissa mammor skriker. på grund av nyfikenhet försökte jag se in i hemmet och de kära döda män gå ut ur rummet, bara jag och teman2 pengar Jag skrek hysteriskt och sprang ner för trapporna. Jag sprang och fick min pappa sa, hysterisk av rädsla. efter att jag blev omedelbart tas av sin far att komma hem och jag vet inte vad som hände härnäst. Nästa dag händelsen var tydligen ganska upphetsad diskuteras av medborgarna och den information som jag har hört att Pongbarrak att göra det. skrev han påstås bedrägligt för att skämta vid middagen.
I nuvarande ålder är mycket ovanligt person som sätter Toraja fallet även om det finns många generationer som har sådan kunskap. men fortfarande ofta mempraktekkannya hos djur som kycklingar eller bufflar urkärnade i en bruten nacke.

Vampires
Ni har alla hört historierna, läst böckerna, sett filmerna.
Ni har kanske önskat er bli en av dom? klätt ut er till dom, önskat evigt liv?
Men har ni någonsin sett en riktig vampyr? som suger blod, har huggtänder, "hänger på kyrkogården"?
Faktum är att dom finns runt omkring oss, det kallas vampyrism, den vampyriska kulturen sträcker sig över hela världen, dom lever och andas.
Dom är som oss människor, bortsett från att vissa dricker blod och vissa tar energi från andra och vissa gör sig bara till en vampyr till utseendet och med klädstilen.
Det finns olika sorters vampyrer.
1. Lifestylers - Dom klär sig som en vampyr, oftast svarta kläder, lite som "Goth" stilen, många gör permanenta huggtänder.

2. SanguinariansInom vampyr samhället, är blod-drickare allmänt känd som Blod eller sanguinarians . Ordet är hämtat från latinets sanguis, vilket betyder bokstavligen "blod".

En sangvinisk vampyr - " sjöng vamp "för kort - dricker blod från villiga mänskliga donatorer på en semi-regelbundet. Amy Krieytaz har myntat uttrycket "sanguinarians" för blod vampyrer vars huvudsakliga vampyriska tendens är ett tvång, eller behöver, att konsumera blod av skäl som inte är främst relaterade till erotik eller känslomässig tillfredsställelse.

Vampyrer och givare

På grund av hälsoproblem och även på grund av intimiteten i utfodring, många praktiserande vampyrer hitta en donator som också blir deras monogama sexuella partner. Några vampyrer finns blod-dricka för att bli en erotisk erfarenhet, och många tycker att det får dem att känna empati kopplade till deras donator, cementering band mellan vampyren och givare som är känslomässig och andlig natur.

Komma med en donator är inte alltid lätt, trots att det finns folk som villigt och glatt erbjuder sig upp för denna roll. Isolering och sekretess tenderar att göra det svårt för många vampyrer att ta kontakt med de människor som skulle vara villiga att tjänstgöra i denna egenskap.

Många av de stora städer som London, Paris, Milano, New York och Los Angeles har en väl utvecklad vampyr under jord. I dessa städer är det relativt lätt att hitta de platser där vampyrer och givare samlas.
Åderlåtning
Åderlåtning är den fysiska handlingen att skära eller piercing köttet för att få ut blod

Sanguinarians inte har lång tid eller vassa huggtänder. Några av dem hävdar att orsaken till detta är utspädning genom långvarig korsning av vampyrer och människor. Andra säger att huggtänder har tryckts in när den inte används.

Men sanguinarians sällan eller aldrig faktiskt biter sina givare för att dra blod. Bitande är extremt riskabelt eftersom det finns alla typer av potenta bakterier som lever i den mänskliga munnen. Bites kan överföra humant immunbristvirus (HIV), liksom hepatit B-virus och syphillis. Gemensamma infektioner kan leda till septisk artrit. Någon som har en mänsklig bit sår ska få snabb första hjälpen och träffa en läkare inom 24 timmar efter skadan, om huden är skadad.

Förutom risken för infektion, orsakar bita omfattande blåmärken och andra skador på givaren. Människors tänder var helt enkelt inte gjorda för att tränga igenom kött snyggt och rent.

Falska huggtänder skulle tekniskt kunna användas för att dra blod, men de allra flesta sanguinarians med ett sinne mot säkerheten använda steriliserade lansetter, sprutor, rakhyvlar eller akupunktur nålar.

3. psychic vampires - Vanligen kallas psi-vamps är en annan typ av människa vampyr som hävdar att uppnå näring från aura , psykisk energi, eller praniska energi av andra. De tror att man måste foder från denna energi för att balansera en andlig eller psykologisk energi brist som en skadad aura eller chakra.
Michelle Belanger är en psykisk vampyr, ni kan läsa om henne här och se en video längre ner - http://michellebelanger.com 

4. Living vampires -  Ofta kallar sig själva med samma namn är mycket andlig och överväga vampyrism en åtgärd som krävs för andlig utveckling och uppstigning, men ändå behålla en strikt etiska system i sin praxis. Living vampyrer är inte blod dricker eller psykiska vampyrer och är oftast organiserade i initierande order såsom Temple of the Vampire, Ordo Strigoi Vii och beställa av Black Dragon.

5. Transcendental vampires-  Begreppet vampyr som har en odödlig själ är i fokus för denna Vampiric identitet. De som umgås med denna form av Vampiric identitet som coven huset Bennu hålla tron ​​att deras själ / psyke får resa in och säkring med själen / psyket och kroppen av en ung vampyr med målet att uppnå odödlighet. Transcendental Vampyrer kan sanguinarian och / eller psykiska natur.

6. Blod fetischister- Fetischister i vampyr samhället använder blod som en fetisch eller stimulerande i sadomasochistiskt sex.

 

The Blood Fetish Vampire eller blod fetischist är en mänsklig person som härleder intensiv erotisk / sexuell upphetsning eller tillfredsställelse i smak, syn, eller känna av blod.

Blod fetischister får eller inte får god tro HLV-talet, eller vara intresserade faktiskt dricker eller smakar blod. Andra kombinerar också vampyr livsstil och kan bleka sin hud ljusare, sova i kistor, eller få sina tänder utjämnade att skapa huggtänder.

Sex blod freaks finns ofta i BDSM subkultur, där deras specifika verksamheter kan refereras till som "bloodplay" eller "bloodsports". Det handlar i allmänhet BDSM scener som inkluderar åderlåtning med rakblad eller andra redskap, men mängden blod inblandade är nästan alltid mycket små, och klipper sällan tränga in i läderhuden i huden.

Andra fetischister praktiken åderlåtning som ett uttryck för förtroende, intimitet och limning, bortsett från just erotiska aspekter. De kan bli donatorer för sanguinarians.

7. Vampyr rollspelare- Vampyr rollspelare, annars kallas "mode vamps", skiljer sig tydligt från mänskliga vampyrer i att de är "seriösa vampyr fans och de som klär sig i vampyren kläder, bor en vampyr livsstil (t.ex. sova i kistor), i första hand delta i rollspel såsom Vampire: The Masquerade ".

Om någon inte förstod vad texten över handlar om så är det här en blogg om "monster" som många kallar dom. Dom overkliga, som igentligen inte ska finnas, bara i fantasin. Men vart kommer fantasin, alla sagor ifrån igentligen?
Här visar jag så ofta jag kan och så ofta jag hittar något nytt något som förhoppningsvis kommer ändra mångas åsikter och tro på fantasivarelserna. Dom finns, dom är verkliga, dom lever och andas, förhoppningsvis. Jag är en tjej som har en tro som går utanför fantasins gränser ibland känns det som. Jag vill ha så öppet sinne som möjligt, om man inte har det, varför ha tro i huvudtaget ? Men jag är inte här för att skriva, utan för att visa vad som finns igentligen, vad som finns kvar, vad som fötts på nytt ? Vad som kanske har fötts utav fantasin, kanske skapats eller kanske kommer ifrån yttre rymden?


Mermaids


Ni vet legenderna och sagorna om sjöjungrur? nu har dom kommit till verklighet, många säger att det är människor som gjort dom, vissa tror på det, andra inte, bedöm själv och skapa er en egen uppfattning.
Många har hittats döda nu för tiden, men jag vet inte om några är fejk eller inte, men har hittat några bilder på några som folk hittat.

1. In 2005, a story of a "real mermaid" which was allegedly found in Chennai following the Indian Ocean Tsunami in December 2004 circulated in the internet.The story was backed up with pictures of the Legendary creature with mermaids tail which inevitably made people ask "do mermaids really exist?".

According to Snopes.com, the body of the "real mermaid" is at the Egmore museum guarded under tight security. Does this prove that mermaids are real? The website claims that the mermaid called Kadal Kanni is a hoax like P. T. Barnum's Fiji mermaid.

People are always fascinated by the stories, legends and mythologies of mermaids speculations about real mermaids continue to exist. People for ages have been looking for real live mermaids that seeing sea animals like the Manatee are often mistaken to be real mermaid sightings.


2. Photos purportedly show the carcass of a dead mermaid found washed up on a beach in the Philippines. The local fishermen found it on shore.

3. a Dead Mermaid was found at Mangse....a island part of Palawan.....
