We, humans have an excellent time imagining things. We are creative beings after all. It was yesterday when I was sitting with my niece, and I saw her draw a giant horned rabbit on her sheet. From fur-bearing trout to a giant horned rabbit, people have a lot of imaginary animals. Excellent imaginations or reality?
