"All that is necessary for the
triumph of evil is for good men [and women]
to do nothing" --Edmund Burke (1729-1797)
Our
planet Earth is populated with plenty of
bizarre and astonishing creatures without the
need for resorting to
fiction. Some are rare,
some are on the verge of extinction. Here are
24 of the most
peculiar creatures known to mankind.
These pictures were submitted by Ingrid Fang.
Perhaps each of these fellow creatures upon perceiving a human
for the first time would be startled by the strange creature.
An oft justified occurrence.
