Is this Latin humour?

DarkstripeShadowpaw In reply to NurturingNaturesGift [2017-07-13 18:40:48 +0000 UTC]

Greek actually.

I was responding to the genus name, which is derived from "moros", the Greek for "foolish".

Boobies are close relatives...Β

Yes lets not go there lol Yeah I thought you were referring to the genus name, I guess moronic comes from that then!
