MYTH: American Pit Bull Terriers lock their jaws.
Dr. Brisbin: "The few studies which have been conducted of the structure of the skulls, mandibles and teeth of pit bulls show that, in proportion to their size, their jaw structure and thus its inferred functional morphology, is no different than that of any breed of dog.
There is absolutely no evidence for the existence of any kind of "locking mechanism" unique to the structure of the jaw and/or teeth of the American Pit Bull Terrier.

Other than being soft and cute, what do bunnies actually do? Oh, yeah, they also pee and poop -- one of my law school classmates had one, and even though she had a litterbox, it would constantly go on her mattress. I think bunnies are better off hopping around the forest.
They are the ultimate TEASE pets. "Oh look at how soft and cuddly I am, see me twitch my nose and hop around so irresistibly but DON'T pick me up and hug me, I HATE that!"
And what's with people giving kids baby chicks at Easter? Yeah, they're cute and fluffy too, but they're even worse than bunnies -- pet them too hard and...oops. Stick to the marshmallow kind. Unless there's a coop out back.
Chicks I would describe as a "false advertising" pet: little, fuzzy, yellow, peeping and cute then BOOM - transform into something that is none of those things and like a totally different creature.
