I have a bottle of Panther Pee to ward off deer from filling themselves to bust on my garden. wonderful stuf. But I understand it is really wold urine, collected in zoos through washing down the enclosures and then reconcentrating it to eliminate the water. Just for those who were wondering!!!

Hilarious finds! I was particularly interested (for obvious reasons) in the Roswell soil sample. I wonder what the certificate of authenticity says? Probably something like “We confirm this soil originates from the original Roswell downed Alien Craft (just off TW Road NM) care is required to be exercised with small particles in the presence of minors and should not be left unattended due to the Alien nature of the contents”

Our garden center in North Carolina sells a concoction of (we think) cougar urine and pepper oils that we have found effective for stopping deer from eating our flowers and vegetables. With eradication of natural predators, the local deer populations are exceeding the food supply in undeveloped areas and the deer are foraging in neighboring suburban yards.

I tried to buy some uranium ore. Amazon said no (UK shipping). It turns out that the supplier has no issue with shipping to the UK but Amazon disagrees and seems unwilling to update its information. The irony is that prior to the rejection of my order, I had no idea of the refinement process for uranium ore. It was Amazon’s rejection of my order that prompted me to research the subject in order to determine whether the supposed threat was realistic.

Um so if Myth Busters has taught me anything it is that these wolf and other types of weird pees are synthetically made and are identical to “the real deal”

Peletted lion urine has been on sale in my local garden centre for some time. The idea is that it should scare off local cats as they think some big mother has marked out the territory. Maybe the wolf pee is supposed to work in a similar way.

Good finds indeed and nice idea! Worthy of some associated revenue

How do they collect litres of wolf pee anyways??
