> "The name Diuqin means bird of prey in the Mapuzungun language; and lechiguanae in reference to Lechiguana, a witch from the Argentine film Nazareno Cruz and the Wolf, who foretold bad omens to Nazareno. So Diuqin lechiguanae means The Bird of Prey of the witch or The bird of prey of the Lechiguana," explained the National University of Comahue in a press release.
> "This species, unknown until now to science, was between 2.5 and 3 meters tall, weighed around 100 kilograms, had small, hollow bones, as well as sharp teeth, pointed claws and a very low but elongated skull"
> "The Diuqin lechiguanae is the seventh species of the Unenlaginos (half-bird) family to be discovered in Argentina. However, its particular anatomical features had not been recorded before in other known dinosaurs.
The fossil remains analyzed were discovered in the isthmus of the Mari Menuco and Barreales Lakes, in the province of Neuquén, and are part of the paleontological collection of the Museum of Natural Sciences of the National University of Comahue."

Younger and younger people nowadays are smoking weed and it's causing a lot of mental problems. It's really something that should be avoided until someone is at least 18 years old. Even then, a lot of people are bad at moderating themselves.

No, not really. This only applies to people who start smoking regularly before ~23.

Then again this thread has been derailed by an actual tobacco shill. They must not want you to know tobacco causes impotence.

My leopard gecko is blind and sometimes I get scared because she sleeps on her back
Is that normal? The first night I got her I thought she had a stroke because I've never seen a gecko sleep like that, she had her foot up and her head against the back of her hide and she was on her side
And then when I tried to wake her up she hissed at me
She seems otherwise healthy

Exactly this - they're coming from high in the trees, in rainforests, which means they need medium-level, consistent humidity and constant airflow. With an auto-mister (or even fogger, though those are generally useless or even harmful for most animals) and a couple of computer fans, plus a mesh top and ventilation somewhere along the sides (picrel as absolute minimum), you can make it work in a big ass glass box, but even then the same setup in mesh is superior for everything except ease of maintaining temp.

Chamleons in general are way higher difficulty than their presence in big box stores suggest. Probably because the big ones are generally hardy enough - or have a slow enough metabolism - to make it a few months to a year before the bad husbandry shuts down their organs, but should live 6-10 years in good condition.

I do not know who started it, but I keep seeing anons talkd about how Borzois can kill "x" dog or large animal because apparently they can kill wolves. This is retarded. So I am just going to leave this lost here to show why its retarded and hopefully put this meme to rest. As much as I like them, they are not super dogs

>Strike 1: Their form is shit
I like how Borzois look, but their bodies are not designed for any real confrontation. A dog having a long muzzle and slanky body is brilliant for small game. It allows for high speeds and bounding over obstacles when chasing prey. This is why almost every sighthound follows the near exact same body type, its the meta for total rabbit/cat/rodent death. But Borzois are not bred for that. They are bred for that. They are bred to be long and lanky for the sake of being long and lanky as an aesthetic. Its why they are physicaly delicate dogs that take on physical injuries quite readily and live shorter lifespans compared to other sighthound breeds. Their form is the product of designer breeding practices and is incredibly inbred. Its a pug with the scaling sliders reveresed.

>Strike 2: Borzois are not "Borzois"
The Borzois that anons talk about killing wolves were virtualy destroyed by the end of the bolshevik revolution. The few that remained were then picked up by the new pseudo middle class of mid to late soviet union. This created the "modern" Borzoi with heavy inbreeding to create the distinct look anons assume to be universal throughout the dogs history. However from pic rel you should see how different the old breed was from the modern one today. The Borzois that could take on wolves are long dead, their Hapsburg-esc descendants only remain to be compared to deranged murder mutt hounds in power level threads.

I thought that was common knowledge. They aren't stronger than wolves, but they are intimidating and they attack in packs like niggers.

Wait till you realise wolves themselves hunt in large packs because they are not über predators and regularly job/run away from medium sized animals in 1v1 situations.

Turns out most predators can understand risk vs reward and don't just kill anything and everything they see.
>>
>>4833311
So they were just slightly smaller wolfhounds? So cross a borzoi with a wolfhound and done.

I can't say for sure, but I don't think it's possible to put it in even in the biggest female. According to some 'scientific sources', a tiger dick is about 2/3 in size of an average human (and lion is smaller than that).
