... that Harris's antelope squirrel (pictured) doesn't sweat, but instead salivates in order to keep cool?

The article was sufficiently expanded today and is adequately sourced. Simply said, I love it. There is an inline citation for each hook. The image is OK. The hooks are hooky, though the thing that surprised me most was that their diet includes small rodents. I naively thought they were too harmless to kill another rodent. Anyway, I believe the first of the three hooks is the best one. Good luck! Surtsicna (talk) 18:03, 12 January 2013 (UTC)
