B.C. by Mastroianni and Hart for July 21, 2023

There we have it: evolution was an invention.

Either that, or he just invented rabies.

this toon is brilliant!

Thanks to science programs like Attenborough’s, you need a program these days to tell apart your turtles from your tortoises!

I like both of them

… or … did it happen the other way around? … where they all used to be on-land tortoises until one decided to go out and spend most of its time in the water … thereby inventing turtles.

If you’re hydrophobic, then how do you keep your shell cool during the summer?

Identifies as a tortoise.

So that’s Wiley’s pet?

Tortoises are not afraid of water. Most tortoise species will seek out shallow water sources for bathing or to have a drink of water.

Aaaaah. So I did! How about that!

My spirit animal is a sea turtle. We don’t talk much.

Turtles get rabies?

Gee, I missed that in Origin of Species class.

Tortoises were probably a group that moved on land where there was less competition for food

Yes, the claws will take some time to take shape.

OK, OK you smart guys. But I’d rather have hydrophobia than YOUR hydrocephalus.

Oh wait …

I loved B.C. when I was a kid and an adult…and I love it now. It’s still hilarious.

Someone’s doing too much nose candy!…

Simply ……. Hal is afraid of “WATER” …….. which especially in his case ……… isn’t good at all ………. ;0

I always thought he WAS a tortoise.

So that’s how it came about!
