This species' nesting ground will be destroyed once a dam is constructed. The turtles are aided in their hunting behavior by cloacal sacs through which they can take oxygen from the water, allowing them to remain submerged far longer than other turtles. This physiological adaptation however only works in shallow, oxygen rich waters, not in dams.

It's brought up in the linked page, but the Chinese beach pictures are in Busan, Korea. I was there in August.

that "car" chase was priceless. godzilla and mothra vs. king gidorah, and are they building a gundam?
the abbey road shot looks heavily shopped, just look at the white line where ringo should be, are you sure it's not from the b3ta abbey road kit?
http://www.b3takit.co.uk/page1.htm
the psd version has a layer with the beatles removed
vmos - the abbey road photo is actually from the original shoot - link provided there :)
The Car stunt can be in Oman (from the 'hats' of these guys).
Real-world Cat Weasel. Cool!
