Angler Fish

Today, we decided to tell you about a very odd animal: the anglerfish. This bony , and quite ugly, yet strangely attractive fish lives in the murkiest depths of the seven seas.  It's a stunningly different type of fish compared to what you may imagine, it usually has a small , glow-in-the-dark organ hanging above it's head. It uses this to lure other fish in, and then swallows them whole with it's shark-like mouth. AnglerfishAnglerfish are extensively carnivorous. They eat pretty much anything that lives underwater, and if your lucky, the next time you go scuba diving, one might bite you. Just remember, no matter how shiny the organ on it's head is, it's bite is like that of a shark or small crocodile, it can bite a finger clean off any man.

Aardwolf

An aardwolf is a small, fox-like animal, native to east and south Africa. It's diet consists of locusts and spiders, and mostly termites. It's name derives from the dutch word Aard (earth) and Vulf (wolf). Unlike it's cousin the fox, the aardwolf uses a long tongue to scoop up insects and swallow them whole.Luckily, this cute little creature doesn't live near humans, so interaction is rare, but continued deforestation and burning of fields to create farmland can be very negative for them. Especially since termite mounds are pests to humans, and destroying them would take away 90% of the aardwolf's food supply. Aardwolf

Another lord of the rings movie in 2012

On December 14th, 2012, Peter Jackson will launch the first part of his fourth movie(yes, it will be split into two parts). This, of-course, is the long awaited "hobbit". It will follow the story of Bilbo Baggins, and will go along with the first book in the series. It appears that Gandalf and Elrond are still going to be present in this new move. But, will it live up to everything that the series has been in the past decade? Although it doesn't seem so long ago, the first movie was launched almost ten years ago. But, this is certainly a movie we at theorderoftheironphoenix are looking forward to! Here is a TRAILER: Read the review here : The Hobbit Review
