These are some of the oldest know aerial pictures of Moscow.
I didn’t think much of this picture when I first saw it. I just thought it was another old civil war picture. It didn’t settle in at first what was going on in the picture. When I looked at it I thought the soldiers were standing next to some kind of canoe. Then I looked closer and realized that it wasn’t a canoe, it was a Pterodactyl! The soldiers are standing around it like it is some kind of trophy. Talk about Photo shop at its best.

On February 12, 2006, divers working with Wisconsin DNR Fisheries, caught this five-foot female Bull Shark under the ice on Lake Pepin, which is part of the Mississippi River. The Wisconsin DNR were responding to reports from several startled salvage divers of a large shark in the cab of a pickup truck that had gone through the ice a few weeks earlier. The Wisconsin divers located the truck in approximately 18′ of water with the shark still inside. The nearly dormant shark was easily captured, then the DNR examined the shark, tagged it with a radio tracking device and released back into the river.
The bull shark like the ones found in Minnesota and Wisconsin are common worldwide, can grow to over 11 feet long and 700 lbs. and are known for being unpredictable, and often times aggressive. The bull shark is not a freshwater shark, but it is able to tolerate fresh water for extended periods of time. The bull shark has been reported over 2,200 miles up the Amazon River at Iquitos in Peru. Besides being in Minnesota and Wisconsin these sharks have also been reported up the Illinois River as far as Lake Michigan. According to the Global Shark Attack File, in 1955 George Lawson had his right leg bitten off by a bull shark while swimming in Lake Michigan near Chicago. Although this was a one time freak attack, it makes me wonder what was swimming with me all those times I went skiing on the Illinois River and Swimming at the Chicago beaches on Lake Michigan. I guess its probably better that I don’t know. Oh well at least I can go shark fishing in Central Illinois now!
