Really??! The Orvillecopter Dutch artist Bart Jansen taxidermied is dead cat, Orville, and turned it into a remote-controlled helicopter! Nigeria, Africa's most populous country, is home to 370 different ethnic groups in as many languages! The Giant Pacific octopus spends more than 90% of its day in one place!

Yeah, taxidermy the cat, a little icky, but to fly it around? As they say, it takes all kinds to make the world.

I don’t think I’d want to be around a cat heliocopter. That guy’s a weirdo. The octopus just stays put and all is serene in his garden beneath the waves. Don’t they mainly speak French in Nigeria?

I have mine cremated when they pass on and keep them in little cedar chests on my bookcase. But that copter cat would be fun to have at Halloween, especially if it was black.
