Breanne Tiger saga all the way :)


message 2: by MJ (new)

MJ Nicholls I hate to be a killjoy but Animal Farm has no species or animal in the title.


message 3: by Nathan "N.R." (new)

Nathan "N.R." Gaddis Species of what? Rye is a species of grain (or species of grass, depending upon which discourse we participate in) so we should include Catcher in the Rye.

Not to be a killjoy, but 'animal' would be a species of 'living thing.'


message 4: by MJ (last edited May 28, 2012 01:48pm) (new)

MJ Nicholls I don't think you can call an animal a species of "living thing" . . . this would imply all animals could interbreed, belonging to the same species of living thing. Having said that I'd like to see a cross between a warthog and a mallard.


message 5: by Nathan "N.R." (new)

Nathan "N.R." Gaddis Yes, but 'species' and 'genus' are simply empty forms of relation. Within the biological discourse you might have a case, but species and genus are not limited to the biological discourse. A species is simply the genus plus a specific difference. So the phrase 'species of animal' would simply be the animal with specific difference. Of course with the advent of DNA tracing relations between various phenomena in an evolutionary history, this language of 'species' and 'genus' might be just a bit old fashion.


message 6: by Lobstergirl (new)

Lobstergirl Are mythological beasts acceptable? Cuz there are lots of them on the list. How about words like "creature(s)," "species," "pet(s)"?
