Most people have heard about fainting goats. These animals, when startled, kind of seize up and fall over. They don't really lose consciousness, but the 'stop before you decide to fight or flight' reflex in these animals has become exaggerated so their muscles actually seize up and they fall over in response to fear.
Well, I think I've one-upped the fainting goats. Today I bought a miniature African frog and 'Peeps"(his name) rolls over on his back and plays dead when he is startled or unsure. The first time it happened I thought I had killed him. Then he did it again. By the third time he did it, I just laughed at him - such a drama queen!!!
Just when you think you've seen it all and just when you're having the worst day you've had in years, along comes this - a tiny little speck of God's creation to put a big smile on my face. Priceless little 'Peeps'.
