Hello, you have reached the office of Unusual Specimens. Colin Pancrea and Alex Borstein are not in right now. If you would like to leave a message—Colin: HELLO? Hello? Oh hi, I just walked in the door and heard the machine running. Who is this? It’s the kids, Alex. Hi kids. Sorry we’ve been gone for so long, we were out playing laser tag and lost track of time. We’re here in Beigneton, learning about the Snow Clammal. Alex, why don’t you tell the kids a little about this shot you took of this magnificent beast.
Alex: Thanks, Colin. Well, the Munthgiganticus Northimus, or Snow Clammal as it is more commonly known, dwells in the frozen tundra of Beigneton. This remote habitat, as well as its remarkable camouflage, makes sightings extremely rare. Local tribes believe that a sighting of a Snow Clammal bodes well for their luck in video game playing. These creatures can hide under banks of snow for weeks on end, waiting for unwary prey or Blinky, Unusual Specimens staff photog, to pass by. They leap out and engulf snow rabbits, snow foxes, or snow guppies whole.
Colin: Wow, Alex. That’s so interesting that I almost forgot how terrible you are at laser tag.
Alex: Harsh. Eat my shorts. Eat my dust. Eat an egg sandwich. Eat a beet. EETABEET. A little bit. A leetle beet. I’m tired. Goodbye, kids.

Nice one gents, short and sweet. But these endeavors could use more field recordings, or .gifs as they're called in the biz.

T'anks Hoary. Unusual Specimens is entering a new format that will consist of smaller, more frequent entries. Stupid animations and crap will be about every third entry, and every sixteenth and a half entry will be a different object from your childhood, provided to us by your mother, wrapped in tinfoil and dental floss.
