>>5088584>posting nsfw on /aqg/Do retards really
>>5088718they are very hardy, they will be fine
>>5088575>>5088576>>5088582did Flanders post a pic of his new "wife"?
>>5088794I don’t think that was himSome guy (who is probably not even 20 years old yet) decided to shoehorn in the fact that he has a gf in an earlier post. Some other anon said “doubt” and then the og retard posted a webm of him playing with her (nonexistent) tits.That’s about it really. I agree with the other guy, dude is probably from Alabama
>>5088793I've been giving them a nudge to prompt them to detach from the surface before I pick them up, and they seem OK. I dumped all the old tank substrate in a box with some water and, as expected, all the snails are emerging like a horde of zombies. I'm amazed at how many there were, dozens and dozens in a 30 gal tank.I'm going to just keep this box to hand and periodically repatriate handfuls of snails as I see them
Animals are so fucking retarded.
>>5088751Sure its exactly 10 seconds long like every retarded AI video and the cat spazzes out for longer than any cat ever would once it realises its on solid ground but its definitely not AI
>>5088765AI is is a bane, but it's great when it makes bitch chuds like this guy boiling mad.
>>5088751>physics and continuity problems>not AInice try
>>5088747very good picture saar this is the future
>>5088750Have you ever interacted with a cat? They don't have much going on up there. You have to remember they're prey animals and are dumber than dogs.
i have seen discussions of the possibility of the tasmanian tiger still being alive in the deep remote areas of papua new guinea, but what about the giant megalania lizards?
>>5088808NO you fucking retard. it's as stupid as the bigfoot bullshit. animals that big would have left evidence of themselves.
>>5088820Even worse, it's>gigantic apex predator with none of its original gigantic prey remaining somehow hiding
>>5088821Even worse i would say. At least bigfootfags have the excuse of "well but it is a very intelligent animal that WANTS to hide from humans". This thing is just a giant dumb lizard
>>5088808If they still existed we’d know because ranchers would never stop bitching about them
>>5088822if it srill existed in remote areas of papua new guinea it could prey on isolated tribespeople, it could also have evolved to not be quite as big

>>5088829fuck off if you're not gonna post pictures of horse, weeb retard.
>>5088830That's not very horseful of you!
>>5088831this isn't a daycare bitch
>>5088814they guards the doors
>>5088827They didn't even think to clean the horses nose before photographing it.
It doesn't make sense that the largest animal known to have ever lived is the blue whale and it's currently living in our timeline. Why there was not a prehistoric sea monster or something bigger? Everything was bigger back then. It doesn't make sense.
There might be, but we haven't found them and we will probably never find them (humanity has/will only scratched the surface when it comes to fossils)
>>5088749Not to mention the countless species that never even fossilized
More time to evolve bigger simple as
whales inflict a nearly infinite amount of pain and suffering on all the sentient sea critters they eat every day of their lives. QuadTrillions of shrimp critters just minding their own business, living out their lives in their own avatar paradise.. THEN, from out of no where, you are your entire society are swallowed whole into a giant whale stomach of acid where you all die in misery over the next 15 minutes which feels like an eternity.
>>5088592*destroys your fossil recordnothing personnel human beings
Would pests be more accepted in a home if they found a way to make you cum as consolation for what they do to your home?
>>5088464If the rat has its then yes.
>>5088464Happily, yes
No one seems to care about dholes for some reason
>large mammals>not cared for
Now you mention them, the only awareness I have of dholes is the Second Jungle Book. I don't think I even remember any shows having anything about them (I'm sure I've mentally blanked a segment). They've just flown under radar.
I've always thought that gemsbok are really cool with their regal appearance and the way they fight off predators with their horns but antelope in general are rarely given much attention. Not a true antelope but the pronghorn also fits this thread since it's one of the fastest land animals on the planet and the last surviving species of a family that goes back over twenty million years but it rarely gets talked about that often.
>>5087224South American canids with the possible exception of the maned wolf
>>5087224Island Southeast Asian ungulatesThey are several of them, often very weird, endangered and limited to one of two islands yet literally no one even conservation agencies seems to care about them
You may also discuss minerals here, too.
>>5088739Favorite rock is probably either tuff or limestone. Both have neat fossils, or at least in tuffs case have the potential for fossils. Favorite mineral is labradorite. Labradorite is pretty neat.
Pumice. It's hard to grow shit from seed without it.
>>5088739AI stone swirls with David Gilmour?strange
>>5088739>>5088760>>5088763>>5088795I am showcasing a prime specimen of my favorite rock.

>>5088228He just finds dinos far more interesting
>>5088228Honestly his mammals are larger and more diverse than under the dinosaurs. And I say this as some who deeply loves Mesozoic mammals
>>5088379on its own yeah but its always like here is this cool thing but some dino will always kill it or be better than it. Hell its not even dino any reptile is better. The only time I see mammals in general being good/excelling on are either being pests or underdogs not to mention being eaten. Like he mentions on oh look at all these herbivores dinos and its only the mammals being eaten or killed like 90 percent of the time. Not to mention how he keeps reiterating how mammals just cant run for long or reproduce as fast.
>>5088228It is really a mystery...
I really like when projects explore cellular biology and microbial evolution, i wished there were more of it https://youtu.be/yb9RD1mDnpM
Previously on /jg/ (now /jef/) >>5048770Who is Jefrey (with one F)?He was found abandoned in some bushes filthy and covered in fleas late one night in mid-July 2024. He’s all grown up, and enjoys car rides, climbing trees, going to new places, and most of all, capybaras. Some believe him to be a goblin or gremlin. He was named after the Pixies song “Space (I Believe In)”.Jefrey suffers from mild ear-ectile dysfunction.Originally posted him here back in July 2024 seeking advice for potential health problems due to his folded ears, some /an/ons wanted more of him, and so now you’re stuck with him.
>>5088589This is the traditional Chinese court dress for a high ranking eunuch
>>5088699I wish Jef would hold my hand
>>5088699jef looks very long. can we get a measurement?
>>5088642stop feeding him toothpaste
my cat doesnt like gabagool should i be worridied
>>5088034Return the cat.
>>5088047It appears to be a dago ham concoction.
>>5088034its all fat and nitrates, your cat is correct to not eat it
The sopranos was shit.
>>5088034he can have little a gabagool as a treat
>how did you know I was Jewish?seriously though, what is the evolutionary benefit of a (((nose))) like this? or is it purely the result of sexual selection?
>>5088088so it true what they say about the ones with the big noses..
>>5087989The funniest part is that the males have those cocknoses and the females don't.
>>5088243at last, we've found itthe guy who gives a flying fuck
>>5088431that's not funny. that just proves it's the result of sexual selection and not any other selective pressure. in general, the more I think about sexual selection, the more I realize most physical attributes are the result of that. especially when it comes to humans. people often wonder why the hair on human heads go indefinitely. well, it's probably because women thought it looked cool. not because it provided any benefit for survival. you can generalize this to most things. even cock size. males of any ape species have pretty small dicks, yet humans have enormous dicks, even compared to other animals. it's probably because women thought they looked cool.
Let’s talk about the apes of Africa and Asia.
>>5087670Shut up Bob
>>5044354Vaxx status?
>>5087358Thanks.So it might be due to enhanced working memory. Apparently humans can be trained to reach that level, so maybe >>5065075 is right.
What are your top 3 favourite animals? Or top 5 or 10 if you want toFor me, the ring-tailed lemur is #1The gaboon viper would be #2And I can't not put a cat in my top 3 so I'd put the snow leopard in #3
>>5083793The humble tortoise
>>5083793The naked mole rat.
For me its the Haselmaus, animal of the Year 2017.For the other places i need further analysis.
>>5086669skunks are great
Red pandaPuffer fishKangaroo mouse
What’s the smartest non-human animal?
>>5086910We're looking for the smartest animal though
>>5087290I think the impressive thing about octopi is how it is all self-taught. They live a year and don't interact with other members of their species in meaningful ways. Imagine how much smarter they could be if they lived long enough to teach their children
>>5088779You're in luck anonhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larger_Pacific_striped_octopusThese guys are cool af and I hope we learn more about them
>>5086875Kek
>>5088801That photo reminds me of this guy
