Tongues Photo Addendum

The Ecuadorian bat headlined in last Friday’s blog post may hold the record for the longest tongue of any mammal, but the mammal tongues in these photos won’t make you cringe. All of the photos are courtesy of Rachel (www.rachelphilipson.com).

Beagle: Which is longer, tongue or ears?

Shepherd: A sensible dog-size tongue.

Cheetah: The tongue
looks about average
for a cat.

Calf: The tongue is
cute, but no prize.

Giraffe: Whoa! Where
does this tongue begin?
Love the color.
