riding the sledge!
It's just that climate didn't support it.
Here you go!
You know, I, too, wouldn't mind...I'm so fed up with all this snow...
This running is taking too long time. Poor cachalot...he's alone there.
Yes, it's time to go back.
Where do you want to get?
This is the swordfish...
That way! Faster!
How do you manage to pick up such speed on the water?
On account of streamline of sword and all the rest.
Running is over!
I waited you very much.
We are all together again!A House For A Badger
Enough!
That's enough!
What happened?
I have been lived out of my own home.
By whom?
Individual which is nasty in all senses moved in all by herself
while I was gathering herbs.
Since then she's just producing and producing garbage but I am carrying them out.
Who did ask you to?
Have you forgotten how the saying goes: "don't carry ???? out of house".
We, badgers, can't stand filth.
Sloven! That's enough. I will be living under open sky.
Don't worry, badger. You will dig new hole.
So that such cad lived me out right away? No way.
I will be living under open sky.
One moment...
Shell of a giant calm - largest in the wolrd. One and a half metres from side to side.
Here you go - roof over your head.
Cool!
And no fox will get inside.
How is it?
Wonderful, yet tight.
And there's nothing to tidy up.
What?
No storeroom, no bedroom, no hall to sweep...
Yea...we need a project.
Correct.
Attention! KOAPP announces tender on best
architectural project for badger's house.
After preliminaries several architectural projects are selected for the tender.
I introduce the first contestant - hamerkop. Inhabits african bogs, feeds on frogs.
Dimensions of the nest:
2 metres from side to side,
2 metres in height.
Go on, please.
My creative principle is:
With head in form of a hammer...one needs to drive in nails.
...to think. As with head of any other shape.
This is what I have in mind.
Brilliant!
Unique, only one in the world three-floor nest.
Hall in first floor.
Not bad.
Second floor - combined sitting-room.
Combined with what?
With dining room, kitchen, storeroom.
Provision is being kept here.
Third floor - bedroom.
It's untidy!
What's up?
What?
It's no good.
It's too high up.
Yet secure.
Calm down, calm down, dear cachalot.
That's just our second contestant.
Architect octopus. Representative of sea molluscs, cephalopoda class.
(Head-handed would be more appropriate...)
It has eight long tentacle-arms on its head, previously called "legs".
Length of body together with arms - up to six metres.
Weight - up to a hundred kilograms.
Particulary big specimens are called ???.
House of octopus is a city of stone.
Go on...
My project...excuse me, I am nervous...
Imagine yourself inside of wast labyrinth of stone...
I imagine...
Wonderful!
There is room, there is where to tidy up.
I am so nervous...
The most important phase - let the water in.
Where does water come from?
Why is water here?
Because my house is an underwater house.
How am I supposed to breathe?
That is not included in tender condiotions.
Is house spacious? It is.
Can a fox get inside? It can't.
That's all.
It is not all. I, too, can't get in. And get out.
Your project is not suitable.
So I was nervous in vain...
We strived, chose projects, but none is good for him.
Egoist!
My own burrow is the best.
You're right, neighbour.
??? duck. There is nothing better than your own burrow.
But there is a fox inside.
Is that all?
She was a brave duck...
Save me! Snake!
Duck...alive!
Alive.
Excuse me, where is the snake?
Here it is...
Wonderful!
This is how we protect our burrows and don't let foxes and other predators in.
I am cool about badger now.
But projects can be handy...
...for bionic engineers.
Moreover, all projects for the tender are valid!KOAPP

Listen, who has forgotten [this]?
No nests...it has been thrown here.
Little one...left without parents.
