    Cleopatra was Greek, a descendant of Ptolemy (one of Alexander’s generals), not Egyptian.

    I’ve seen a coin from Cleopatra’s reign and that drawing is not an inaccurate depiction. By all accounts, she attracted men by her personality and intellect, not her looks.

    They’ll survive, but they won’t like it…

    If Cleopatra looked anything like this depiction, I wonder how she was able to seduce a man like David! :o\

    Those Arctic Foxes must have lived entirely on frozen food.

    That may be surviving, but it sure isn’t living…

    Wikipedia claims that Arctic foxes don’t even shiver at -58 degrees Fahrenheit.

    “The Arctic fox lives in some of the most frigid extremes on the planet, but they do not start to shiver until the temperature drops to −70 °C (−94 °F).”
