I was a pretty smart little cub. When I was about ten years old I knew all sorts of things about all kinds of stuff. I could tell you the scientific latin name of many major animal species- Orcinus orca, Felis tigris, Ursis horribilus. I even knew this one, which I herewith spell from memory: Haliaeetus leucocephalus. Not bad eh? I admit I may not have spelled it exactly right, but I know I'm close. Know who that is? I'll give you a hint- he's America's national symbol.
Yup, the bald eagle.
Well, today is an auspicious day for taxonomists because I have discovered a brand new species of bear. Actually, I personally have evolved into a brand new species of bear, and I propose the name Ursis leucocephalus.
Homie Bear is now bald.
But I'm STILL 29.
