    Starts out by saying that they were the smallest foxes... and ends with them actually being wolves... i feel betrayed.

    • @DelinahLovesHouseBunnies
      @DelinahLovesHouseBunnies Před 3 lety

      Also, she was wrong about it being the _smallest_ fox. When she said that, I immediately thought, "What about the fennec fox of the Sahara and the desert kit fox of the American Southwest?" Sure enough, the latter is about 5 lbs max, and the former is both the smallest fox and smallest canid, at 2.2-4.2 lbs (it mostly eats bugs). Very sloppy research. The fennec is famous for being tiny.

    The direction that electrons move in an electric circuit was originally thought to be from the positive lead to the negative lead but it turns out that is in fact incorrect and that electrons move from negative to positive but we keep pretending that they move from positive to negative because the math is the same and an old white man came up with it.
