Well I can’t test that out with Tasmanian devils because I don’t have access to be able to experiment.

May the Lord be with you.

A water buffalo can weigh as little as a sea turtle!

What he meant to say was that Tasmanian Devils fluoresce under ultraviolet light. They also rip anybody who comes near them to shreds. Nasty little buggers!!

Speaking of the Olympics, hopefully the postponed Games hosted in Tokyo last year don’t get re-postponed this year.

I think that RBION means ultraviolet light instead of fluorescent light.

Other animals also glow under ultraviolet light including platypuses, bilbies, bandicoots, and echidnas.

Also flying squirrels.

If I make a comment could I maybe not get quite so many bizarre unrelated political responses under it? Also: Wow! Them’s some heavy turtles!

They glow? The devil you say!

If I start up a country, I’ll make certain that the flag has NONE of the colors that are on the Olympic flag! Orange, Blue and White!

And they get fuzzy under Bud Light.

Take care, may Icelandic Mosquito Whisperer Horst Guomudord be with you, and gesundheit.

Large sea turtle, small water buffalo.

The glow of Tasmanian Devils, and other Australian wildlife that also glow, was first noticed in August of 1945.

Must be the white.

And the five colors of the rings represent the “five” continents: blue for Europe, yellow for Asia, black for Africa, green for Australia and Oceania and red for America (both North and South).

I thought white is not considered a color.

But for both, it’s mostly water weight?

Researchers have created genetically modified cats and other animals that fluoresce. Search for “fluorescent kittens” or “fluorescent animals” on Google images.

I’m sorry, but there’s no way a sea turtle weighs as much as a water buffalo. Trick question perhaps?

My goodness those Tasmanian devils are kinda cute. :^)

All six colors…yes, indeed they do!

I wanna meet the guy who put them on a balance scale -wel-l-l maybe not…

and a water buffalo can weigh as much as a polar bear…ad infinitum
