Post by DadofTwins »

And so it begins.

The first post is generally reserved for announcements.

The second post will be the clues. The third post will be a blank response form. Add the closing bracket to spoiler-ize your post.

Here we go.

COYOTES

2: This sense functions in coyotes at up to 80 kiloHertz, 20 kiloHertz better than most dogs.

4: In coyotes, these can be yellow or green, and generally do not open until ten days after birth.

6: The species name for coyotes, canis latrans, does not refer to “howling” but this other sound many dogs make.

8: Like fictional vampires, coyotes are crepuscular, meaning they are active at this time of day when the sun is below the horizon but its rays refract in the atmosphere.

10: Aside from humans, the predator most dangerous to coyotes is the gray variety of this fellow canine.

VEEP! VEEP!

3: The Vice Presidency was vacant from November of 1899 until March of 1905 except for the six months during which he filled the office.

6: Until this amendment was enacted, there was no explicit Constitutional provision for replacing a Vice President.

9: He served less than four years as Vice President, but did not die in office, resign, or succeed to the Presidency.

12: Two of the four sitting Vice Presidents to run for President and finish second in the Electoral College.

15: Of the three Vice Presidents to die on July 4, he is the only one not to also serve as President, missing his chance by 45 days.
