Yes, time for another session of Colorado Pop Culture Trivia! I had wildlife on my mind today. Not because my personal life is all that wild, I'm sorry to say, but because this week I've been treated to catching views of teeny toads (and one big one tonight!) and a pair of young foxes. More about the foxes later.
As always, funny answers are just as welcome as correct ones. No Googling Allowed. Feel free to share cool info in your answers--I love that!
1. The largest youth horse club in the world and the location of their headquarters. (And be nice, I'm an alumnus!)
2. They used to be the Colorado Aggies. Who are they now? (Be nice, a former CO governor is an alumnus!)
3. Where would you find the following streets: Brontosaurus Boulevard, Stegosaurus Freeway, Triceratops Terrace, Brachiosaurus Bypass, and Diplodicus Drive?
4. What animal became the state reptile this year? For extra credit, name the state animal, state bird, and/or state fish.
5. What bird is honored with a celebration every year in Fruita?
Okay, about that fox. I was driving the last mile home and an animal dashed across the road in front of me. I slowed down to check it out and saw it was a young fox holding a dead bird (?) in its mouth. There was another interested party checking out the dinner too, a second fox. Since its sibling didn't want to share, it turned around and started heading up the edge of the cornfield. Amazingly, me driving along just a few yards away didn't bother it a bit. You can't see much because of the dim light, but what it was doing was BROWSING, looking down each row between the cornstalks, just like it was shopping at a supermarket!
I will tell you up front, the video quality is poor, because the sun was down and I only had my old junky camera (the one I don't mind carrying in my purse because it's no great loss if something happens to it). The only reason I am posting it at all is because I am very proud that I have figured out how to overlay a sound clip when editing a video!
I guess I could give extra credit for IDing the singer and song....
