Mongoose world
According to Rudyard Kipling, “The motto of all the mongoose family is ‘Run and find out'” – a motto that applies equally (though perhaps at a slower pace) to research skills and information management, and therefore to what I train students and researchers in every day. As a passionate advocate of lifelong learning, however, I believe it should also apply to the library profession as a whole … So in the ever-inquisitive spirit of the mongoose, here’s to new experiences – starting with the Cambridge 23 Things programme!

And mongooses (mongeese??) are known for their rare ability to catch and eat venomous snakes which has to be admired.
Absolutely true. Personally I do the eating venomous snakes less often, though :)
