>durrrr most coal came from the carboniferous>durrrrr nothing could decompose trees yetWhy are these retarded myths so pervasive? Where did they even come from?
>>5167604Idk, but it is all lies when it comes to the geological history of the planet, isotope daring is a scam, they deceaved everybody, satan is very smart at doing it
>>5167604Paleontology is always stupid. Most coal does appear to have come from the Carboniferous, but not because nothing could decay wood yet. That's fucking stupid.
>be normie child>go through awmugod damblosnores phase>consume all paleo media possible>internalize available information>age out>never give a fuck about retarded dinosaur shit again>retained info locked and never updatedits just that easy.

I have an unusually brave, intelligent, and social hedgehog. Examples:1. He permits me to handle him and will almost immediately unball whenever I pick him up.2. He shows absolutely no fear when I trim his nails. He rarely, if ever, fidgets or fusses and just watches me trim them with intense curiosity.3. He permits me to kiss his forehead, even lowering his head with a smile (yes...hedgehogs are a rare animal that can smile) in anticipation of forehead kisses. To him is a form of greeting.4. He permits me to boop his nose with my nose and will boop my nose and other people's noses as a form of greeting. 5. He permits me to cuddle his nose with my nose or if I place my face near him he will use my nose as a pillow.6. He takes baths with no fussing. He will even swim happily and explore without prompting, then come over to me to either get rinsed off or lightly brushed. 7. He will bark loudly (though at his size it sounds like a sharp tiny duck quack) a singular time to get my attention. 8. He will make happy little squeeky/chirping sounds when he's trying to tell me he's happy.9. He will permit me to pet his tail sometimes (most hedgehogs seem to hate this, but he tolerates it and will even sometimes leave his tail outside his pouch to get me to pick him up).10. He will crawl over to me from over 10 ft. away just to sit by me. For a hedgehog that's like crawling a hundred yards, especially with how blind they are.

>>5168052>>5168053>>5168068>off topic troll postsAre you a jeet? I've seen abusive posts like yours before. They were posted, just like in this instance, by some deranged jeet who was obsessed with badgers for some reason. Presumably because he sexually abuses them and is absolutely fixated on hating anyone who likes hedgehogs, which are some of the most helpful critters around, given that they eat insects that commonly plague gardens. You should probably think before posting, because you're really only showing people you're a deranged sociopath like all jeets. Be better and people won't hate you so much. OP clearly likes hedgehogs. He also doesn't seem to care about you one way or the other, which is fucking hilarious considering how much effort you put in to try to "get him". Anyway, cool hedgehog post, OP. Let us know if your little buddy does anything else that's cool. :)
How many times are you going to post the same deluded schizo shit?

I suffer from a mild form of lepidopterophobia yet I think moths and butterflies are fascinating, gorgeous creaturesI try to work on it but every time a moth gets in my vicinity I start sweating and shaking. I hate itPlease post anything moth relatedButterflies welcome
>>5167917Is that moth eating cum?
I was a bit skittish until I found this one out in the rain. When I picked it up, its fur reminded me of a dog or a cat (just don't rub your eyes afterward).
>>5164213How can you even be afraid of it? It is a little flying puppy! They mostly don't have any chewing mouthparts to bite in their adult stage. At worst some adult lepidopterans are toxic to eat for predators. Butterflies also sip on blood and shit with their proboscis so there's also that

These things need to fucking go extinct. I don't give a shit about the birds and aquatic animals that use them for food.
>>5167768Gimme a minute, lemme see what I can do
I leave buckets of water out for them.
Got bored at work and let one feed on me, she was so cute being a gluttonous little pig in front of an apex predator. I hope your safe little swine
>>5167768Summer would be silent without the gentle mosquito.Really we should be talking about humans needing to go extinct, they spray poison everywhere and try to slap innocent bugs who just want to eat.
>>5167931>Really we should be talking about humans needing to go extinctYou start.

Are marsupials intrinsically dumber and less efficient than placentals? I've heard contrary thing but it's clear they've been driven out of almost all continents except Australia.
>>5168014I think its more that Australia had a ton of niches to fill after it split off from Gondwana and adaptive radiation made marsupials take off, where elsewhere those niches were filled and they didn't go nearly as far.
We've avoided cutting our husky/German Sheppard slightly wolf dogs claws for years and its becoming a problem where shes almost hurting people and scratching stuff to a bad degree. Problem is she gets way skittish when we try and cut them and one groomer even refused to do it after her reaction. I dont have money for certain alternatives and im considering knocking her out with something or at least numbing her so I can get them off. Now that ive triggered the majority of this boards dog owners what are suggestions.
>>5167866With me it was a cat, I tried to start when he was a kitten so he would get used to it, and he was just not interested in complying and I got torn up badly enough that I gave up.
I don't want to sound rude, but how's this possible, for the breed you said it is? I have a shepherd dog, she is at home during the day because we dont have a garden, but we walk around 10km a day and thus she never had problem with her nails, because they scratch on the ground and get consumed. I only have to cut her "thumbs" but that's it.
>>5167326>husky owner>irresponsible retard incapable of training or grooming said dogTits or gtfo lmao
>>5168011Objection: Most huskies are untrained. And not for lack of trying. That's kinda what you're in for.
>>5168012That's just a cope by failed owners who should have bought a dog better suited for beginners rather than a working dog, believing that they'd get the quirky chungus dog from their fantasies.
I glanced outside my window not half an hour ago on this golden Sunday evening, when my gaze fell upon a shrivelled, greyish lump on the middle tier of our back garden. If it were a bird, I thought to myself, perhaps it has injured a wing and could use a hand!I went outside to investigate, whereupon I found myself, sure as the day is long, at the foot of a dead pigeon!Now, I can't say I was close to the fellow. Frankly, we never met! That being said, there was one thing that just utterly confounded me so; how did this thing die?The pigeon was lying on it's chest, wings rather close to it's chest, with it's head and neck more or less between them, looking rather normal. There did appear to be blood, but only smattered around the tip of it's beak and a small radius around it. We live in a very rural area, our garden backs into the woods, no fences, our cat had been inside with us all afternoon and the pigeon, when I put it in a bin bag, was still warm. In terms of birds of prey we get maybe buzzards, red kites, kestrels, barn and tawny owls at night, maybe a sparrowhawk or hobby. I saw nothing on it's corpse to indicate that it had been attacked, so I despair. What killed the pigeon?Are we on the brink of a new bird flu? Am I patient zero or a schizo patient?YOU decide.
>>5167428How long do you think the life expectancy of a pigeon is?Do you think pigeons are magically teleported to a secret burial ground when their time is near?
>>5167428I like these little tards... Humans should take responsibility, since we abandoned them.
>>5167428Could have been attacked by a bird of prey and crash landed in your garden, it happens sometimes in my backyard with my neighbors doves, there are kites literally every day hoping to catch them. Usually my cats end their suffering if I don't spot the bird them right away
>>5167428it's = it isits = possessive e.g. its chestI'm an ESL ffs
>>5167428>There did appear to be blood, but only smattered around the tip of it's beak and a small radius around itWas it close to a window? Otherwise it probably overdosed eating strawberry jam.Why didn't you take any pictures? This is an imageboard, after all.
Do you ever think of all the animals have gone extinct, that you'll never get to meet and pet, and just cry?
I'm honestly just enjoying the Vaquita while it lasts, kek.
>>5165545Personally I wonder what the dodo would've tasted like
>>5166509>t.
>>5165545Yeah, sometimes...
>>5166509From what little writing from the time suggests, it really seemed like people really didn't agree on how it tasted.Some thought they tasted tough, but good. Others suggest they tasted like shit and yet more others suggested that only the dodo's gizzard was delicious with the rest tasting like shit
dafuq is this thing wtf
>>5167360Fat fuck
thats a naked mole rat you retard
>>5167359Puggle
it literally says puggle right in the filename, which any reasonable person knows is a baby monotreme.
>>5167359Fun fact: baby monotremes are born undeveloped fetuses just like marsupials!

>They are sensitive and easily stressed by humans,[5] which can sometimes be fatal.[6] Therefore, when hedgehogs are captured for treatment, clinics recommend keeping them in a dark, ventilated box with minimal noise and avoiding frequent handling or other interactions.They’re just like me!
