Pelicans historically have held a bizarre place in animal folklore. The Physiologus says of the pelican that it of all birds loves its young the most. The young pelicans in the Pieter van der Borcht (1545-1608) copperplate engraving (above) appear to be about to drink the blood of their mother; some versions of the story […]

I’m playing catch-up from material published during the days I was out along the wilds of the St. Johns River. One item that has surfaced is a new mystery photograph of a strange-looking but familiar animal.

I have mentioned Przewalski’s horse before, regarding their presence in zoos (as above) and concerning their replica appearance (as below).
