I'd give you an honest response if you weren't a moderator.

Why Tf is a hawk fan a mod here?

Carolina actually existed unlike a Seahawk or Big Foot.

 

 

Carolina Colonies A Brief History

"Carolina was so called by the French, in 1563 or 1564, in honor of Charles IX, King of France (Carolus in Latin, meaning Charles), under whose patronage its coast was discovered.

The territory thus named afterwards included the lands between the 30th and 36th degrees of north latitude, and extended from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific. In 1663, this defined territory was conveyed, by Charles II, King of England, who claimed it by virtue of Cabot's discovery, to Lord Clarendon, Sir William Berkley, Sir George Carteret, and four others with ample powers to settle and govern it.

Part two:

Yes we do have panthers in western NC, although they are not black, we have do have them.

 

 

With the exception of the Florida Panther (which is actually a cougar), all Panthers are black.  Panther is literally a term for a black cat of the panthera genus... typically a black jaguar, leopard, and sometimes a cougar.

 

It's possible there are black cougars in NC, which is probably where the sightings come from... and could be called a panther, even though it's really not part of the panthera genus.

The Redskins are the best team in Washington DC. The Seahawks have little brother envy syndrome.

Who is the real fraud here "Hawk"? If that is even your REAL name!

2. The Seattle Seahawks' "seahawk" isn't actually a sea hawk.

Before every home game, the team releases a trained bird named Taima to fly out of the tunnel before the players, lead them onto the field and get the crowd jazzed up for the game. But the nine-year-old bird is an augur hawk (also known as an augur buzzard), native to Africa, not a seafaring species that can properly be called a sea hawk

The Seattle Buzzards have quite a ring to it....

They were going to use an Osprey but the Dept of Fish & Wildlife wouldn't allow it. They had to use a non-indigenous species, hence the African Auger Hawk. If you care, there's a good story about it here: http://www.spokesman.com/stories/2013/dec/29/west-plains-mans-real-life-seahawk-opens-http://www.spokesman.com/stories/2013/dec/29/west-plains-mans-real-life-seahawk-opens-football/
