My favourite is the ozzimale Its a varied breed often hairy however some types are hairless They have an amusing almost childlike side to their nature at times, however when riled can be ferocious. As some of the young ones become almost fully mature Ozziemales they can quite often be found in groups gathered around closely together observing the females of their type and making such sounds as WHOOOR or GETTALOOKADHER I believe this is the early stages of their mating rituals. As the Ozzimale matures some can be found again gathered closely together in small groups drinking brown coloured liquid at what I understand to be their watering holes whilst their mates are somewhere else looking after their young-uns They can also be found again gathered in groups drinking this brown liquid and watching others of their kind run and kick a ball around a large field,or hitting a ball with a bat made of wood and running up and down a small area making extremely loud sounds such as ARYABLIND, BAAAAALLLLL, HEEZOUT, ( I believe this is a type of Ozziemale bonding)They also partake in these games with great gusto with their offspring and also when gathered in social groups with others of their group and their female mates.
However other mature Ozzimales prefer the company of their female and offspring and spend more time with them.
The Ozzimale is generally a hard worker who looks after his mate and offspring If the Ozzimale finds a Mate for life ( some Ozzimales mate with more than one in their lifestime)he tries his best to provide for his family and protect them from the dangers that do lurk.
The Ozziemale however has a couple of drawbacks he is unable to navigate properly without his mate, he is also unable to remove the cardboard container from its holder that is in the toilet He also thinks the toilet is self cleaning. He cannot find his black socks, or operate the television without the remote ( In fact he can get rather ferocious if his mate tries to take it from him)
All that said however I have an Ozziemale as a mate and he is all of the above but he is loveable kinda furry and he is definitely cute a bit like the wombat ( furry and cute) and also like the quoka friendly and to some strange looking but he is the most endearing being to me


I really hope no one is offended by this post I wrote it with humor in mind and meant disrespect to noone ohhh and I do definitely love my Ozziemale

OMG Charmae, I have just read this with "David Attenborough" voice in my head and I am WEEPING with laughter!
You're obviously a keen observer of the species. Made my day - Thanks!
