Ferret’s history corner

[Laverna]

I post random things in history I learned.

Did you know dog food was only invited because of ww2 and feeding the dogs fresh food became an unnecessary expense during rations. Talk about dry kibble

Hey, Farret? Can we add to your topic? I've been meaning to do a history thing too.

Did you know Clyde barrow tried to steal a toy car ((one of those baby walkers shaped like a ford v8,)). It was for Bonnie’s nephew which he called his nephew. Bonnie told him to put it back as the baby will cry. That’s Christmas 1933:

I don't know if this is "history" exactly, but today I learned there is a Canadian "Nessie"

Canada’s mysterious lake monster

There’s one in Lake Champlain too. His name is champ

I confused, I thought Champlain held "Nessie", but we have an American one too?

Edit: Okay yeah I see I mixed them up.

Nessie is in Loch Ness
"Champ" is in Lake Champlain
and this other one is in Canada.

Today I learned an event in 1961 in Monterey Bay, California inspired the movie "The Birds"
It was poisoned zooplankton that caused the birds erratic behavior and deaths. The birds suffered seizures, confusion and death. Thus attacking people, buildings, etc...also just dropping dead out of the sky.
