Wind-powered animals

This site is kind of hard to explain. It contains pictures and videos of a bunch of wind-powered animals that a guy named Theo Jansen created. They're not real animals; they're pieces of plastic tubing linked together to form moving parts and joints. And when they're placed in a windy area like the beach, they move on their own. One of the creatures is called the Animaris Rhinoceros Transport, which is a giant 15-foot-tall, 2-ton creature that moves when pulled by a person or other moving object. Really weird but amazing stuff. (via Neatorama) #nature
