Hello I don't come out much, but I was reading about Uric and this 
is what I found.

   "Uric the Oddball attempted at one time to prove that Fwooper 
song was actually beneficial to the health and listened to it for 
three months on end without a break. Unfortunatly the Wizards' 
Councel to witch he reported his findings were unconvinced, as he 
had arrived at the meating wearing nothing but a toupee that on 
closer inspection proved to be a dead badger."
( page 18 Fantastic Beasts and were to find them )(JKR)

I hope that this helps you.
