The Barking Spider
"Almost as much fun as a bucket of worms!"
Looney Laws
"A true dog lover, according to City Manager Doug Weiford, might enjoy living in Riverside. An old
piece of legislation stops local citizens from "sticking out a tongue in the direction of a dog." Nor can
people living in Ventura make "ugly faces" at dogs who are found to be "freely roaming" the
community. Animals appear to be treated fairly in Upland but pity the poor owner: "It shall be
unlawful for the owner or keeper of horses, mules, cattle, sheep, goats, and hogs to run at large."
And don't bother duck hunting at night in Apple Valley. Ducks aren't allowed to be heard quacking
after 10:00 p.m. "
"The largest living land animal is the African Bush Elephant,
averaging 10.5 feet wide at the shoulders and weighing more than
6 tons (12,000 pounds). The largest living animal is the Blue
Whale, sometimes called the Sulfur-Bottom Whale. Blue whales
have been measured at 110 feet long, and one has weighed in at
209 tons. That's 418,000 pounds."
