Which of the following animals do not have retractable claws Hyenas Raccoons Mongooses Lions?

Alas, this question still needs a definitive answer. Amongst the choices (Hyenas, Raccoons, Mongooses, Lions), there needs to be just ONE answer, not three. I know it isn't Lions and it isn't Hyenas either (PCH just marked that as Incorrect). So it is between Raccoons and Mongooses as the animal which does not have retractable claws. Any answers?

It appears the correct answer is RACCOONS. I found this during a google search on mammals: "There are two suborders of these toe-footed creatures. They include the Canidae (wolves, dogs, jackals, foxes), Ursidae (bears, giant pandas), Procyonidae (coatis, raccoons, lesser pandas), and Mustelidae (martens, weasels, skunks, otters), all part of one superfamily that is characterized by long snouts and unretractable claws; and Felidae (cats, lions, cheetahs, leopards) Hyaenidae (hyenas), and Viverridae (mongooses, civets), all of which have retractable claws."

Do hyenas eat mountain goats?

Mountain goats are safe from most predators high in the mountains. Sometimes a golden eagle might get a young baby, but only the cougar and the lynx are surefooted enough to be dangerous in the high altitudes. If attacked they fight very well with their razor-sharp horns. Rockslides and avalanches are much more dangerous to mountain goats than predators.

Is the Otterbox Commuter better than the Otterbox Defender?

One isn't better then the other as far as quality. The cases were developed for different people. The Defender is a rugged solution for people who are very hard on their smartphones, it is a little harder to get out of your pocket as well because the silicone is on the outside. The Commuter was developed for people that are a little less rough on their phones and that like to store their phones in their pocket. The Commuter has a different construction then the Defender, the silicone and polycarbonate is sleeker, but it's still a very durable case. OtterBox makes a great product and their company stands behind the product.

How could you defend your vilage against trebuchet?

Only by outworks. At a distance from your walls equal to the range of the trebuchet, dig trenches and fill them with archers. A trench is too small a target for the trebuchet, and easily defended against both cavalry and infantry. Unfortunately, this will multiply by several times the perimeter of your defences, and a village probably won't contain enough men to man the trenches. If I were you, and I saw the enemy arriving with a trebuchet, I should run like hell.

Could the hyenas from the Lion King be considered Anti-Heroes and why?

No, the hyenas from the Lion King movies are more like anti-villians.

According to urbandictionary.com, an "antivillain" is an antagonist who isn't purely evil nor entirely unsympathetic -- a character who doesn't seem to deserve being cast as the villain, perhaps cast arbitrarily as the villain because they are not the focus of the story but merely present a foil to the central figure; the definition of an anti-hero as "a main character who is characterized by a lack of traditional heroic qualities, such as idealism or courage."

However, because anti-heroes and anti-villains are the *main characters* in stories(ie: Simba, Scar, etc), the Hyenas actually do not fall in this category either because they are *secondary* characters.

Anti-heroes/villains are not "characters who side with the primary character but don't always get along"...they are the *main characters* around whom the entire story is usually based(ie: Cinderella, Snow White, Pinocchio, etc); what differentiates Heroes from Anti-Heroes(or villains/anti-villains, etc), is that the Hero has outstanding qualities which they use to accomplish things in their quest, while the Anti-Hero either does not have them or refuses to use them or holds different ideals that what a shining, "traditional" hero would have or do(ie: Shrek's anti-social behaviour and disinterest in rescuing Princess Fiona would classify him as an Anti-Hero, but not Donkey as his second-in-command or sidekick).

Conversely, an Anti-Villain would be the main obstacle for a Hero, but more-than-likely not in an antagonistic way, ie: the Anti-Villain could be the champion speller in a spelling bee who also happens to be best friends with the Hero, but whom the Hero still needs to beat in the spelling bee in order accomplish his goal, etc. Not "villainous", not *meaning* to get in the way of the hero, but still an obstacle nonetheless...*that* is Anti-Villainy, which the Hyenas most certainly are not.

The Hyenas are shown to be defiant and rude, really only out for their own preservation, and nowhere in the film is it shown to any length or even *intimated* that they might have some notion of decency or reconciliation for anyone besides themselves(and the Hyena pack as a whole) or that they would prefer to be with Simba instead of Scar, etc. They are definitely Villains, just not *main* villains, and certainly not Anti-Villains.

Of course, without knowing what these terms *mean*, and just going strictly on the words "anti" and "hero", then yes the Hyenas and *any* villain would automatically be considered an 'anti-hero' simply because they are going *against* the hero.

Is it possible to get a keloid scar on year tongue?

Very much so. Prior to splitting my tongue, I started to stretch it from a 14g that I had pierced it with, to a a 2g and started to develop a keloid. Fortunately, the keloid wasn't an issue, as it as in front of the rod and the scar was removed when I split it. And when I say "I" split it...I mean I split my own tongue!
