The Least Weasel (Mustela nivalis) is the smallest Carnivore in the world and is capable of killing prey 5-10 times it's own body weight, which is equivalent to a male lion killing a female Asian elephant.
They are vicious hunters and positively adorable at the same time.

The band Primus were originally called Primate, but had to change the band's name after about a month due to the threat of legal action from another band called The Primates. Apparently, Les Claypool, the lead singer and bassist for Primus, just looked up the next word under Primate in the dictionary, thus, the new name for the band was chosen, and Primus was born....
The rest is just awesome awesome history....

You are one awesome Holly bush. Primus are easily one of my favourite bands. In fact, anything that has ever had anything to do with Les Claypool is supreme beyond measure.

They should have kept their original name dangnabbit!
I think Primus is a great name for them!

All I can think of with "Primus" is damn camping stoves.
(who would have probably been next to force a name change, if The Primates hadn't got there first)
