Peter Brinson: The First Annual IMD One (Animal) Video End of the Year Online Video Contest

In celebration of the end of the year and to those graduating in May, I would like to loosen the blog etiquette for this one post. I’m sure we’re all often tempted to post a favorite (non-relevant) online video on the IMD blog from time to time, but know it's not appropriate to post non-IM content.

But for this ONE post, please reply with a comment ONCE which includes ONE link to a video involving animals that you want to share.

The winner will receive this shirt (in a couple of weeks).

Rules:
- Submissions will be closed on Wednesday, April 30 at noon.
- At that point everyone can email me their vote for favorite video.
- If you don’t vote (exactly once for someone else), you can’t win.
- Don’t embed the video in your comment. Just link to it.
- The winner will be announced at seminar Wed evening.
- In your post, please include your name and the video title next to it like I have below

*Maybe at the end of next year another faculty member can pick a different theme.

Elephant Darts:

An elephant playing darts. I started to blog about this last semester, but never got around to finishing it. The elephant knows to wait its turn, and at the end, even cheats. It appears to be aware that it is playing a game. Plus, it's hella good at the game.

HENRY LIU's entry BATTLE AT KRUGER:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LU8DDYz68kM

The most epic animal video ever captured. An endearing tale of tragedy, kinship, cowardice, and ultimately redemption. You won't be able to keep yourself from wondering "is that baby buffalo going to make it?"
