>There is an idea of a mammal. Some kind of abstraction. But there is no real mammal. Only a pinniped. Something of blubber. And though we can hide our cold gaze, and you can shake our flippers and feel flesh gripping your hands, and maybe you can even sense our love of seafood is probably comparable, we simply are not there.

post ducks please
>>5043399mf'er created the seagulls
i like to meet with a guy from work down at the duck pond in the village where he lives every few weeks. we just sit there for a few hours, surrounded by all kinds of ducks and waterfowl. they're all used to human presence and some of them come begging for food, i always bring a little bread for them or share my pizza with them that i sometimes get nearby when i'm drunk. i fucking love ducks, they're awesome. i feed them from the hand and watch them for hours while shitposting drunk. great times.
>>5084009Sounds great
If we ever develop the technology to "uplift" animals and give them human-level intelligence, what animal would you most want to talk to?
>>5084487Probably my dog to tell him he's a good boy [spoiler]and apologize for stealing his balls[/spoiler].
>>5084487Only companion animals or animals who've distinguished themselves for things like human service (i.e. cher ami).
raccoon
>>5084491The Council will hear of this!
>>5084487Probably anything that could aid in damaging infrastructure against the governmentImagine the chaos if you could get animals to sabotage rails, power substations and shipping. Closest we've came is training corvids to attack jews
What are your favorite water spots? I love being around flowing water, its very soothing to me. Sometimes I lay in the beach letting the waves roll over my legs and up to my ears and pretend I'm driftwood, even though I probably look like a washed-up porpoise. Here's a pic I took of my first time visiting Niagara Falls from the Canadian side, they were very beautiful and I'd love to come back in the summer.

>Animal is adapted to the cold>Actually, it uses its thick fur to keep its living cells 35+ degreesAre there any actively mobile living beings with a core temperature (however you would even define that) below the freezing temperature of water? Or at least some of its cells?
In northernly temperate climates that can support amphibians during spring/summer, like Alaska and Japan, certain frogs survive being frozen in winter while they hibernate. According to what I remember from what I glossed before; they let all liquid in their body but the cells freeze by producing a sort of antifreeze.
>New orca horror movie like Jaws coming out next yearWill this movie affect the reputation of orcas? Will people start hunting them?
>>5083901So still no human fatalities?
>>5084034That's Jaws, the original Godzilla, Phase IV, Lake Placid, pretty much any good monster movie.Show too much and you ruin the monster, especially if your story is too weak to carry the movie.
>>5083996Retard
>>5084034Cgi is expensive
>>5083863It literally just copied anime, even has jap animators and songs.
/an/'s opinions on hunting and fishing? Just an /out/fag stopping by.
>>5083153Note: this user is 100% correct and the sooner you listen to them the betterEthics have literally never mattered. Its a plea to avoid and excuse select violence. There is no objective good or evil. Only negotiating contracts to limit aggression. Stirner was right. What he missed was the powerful in society already knew he was right before he was even born.A reciprocal contract can not be made between a human and an animal. Only between the human and the owner of that animal. The only ethics in hunting are well disguised commands of the lord of the lands regarding what he would prefer the peasants do on his parcels. It has never mattered if a deer died for shitty gamey meat or for fun. Its biomass is being consumed by something either way.
>>5082202Hunting for fun seems psychopathic
>>5082202Its OK if its against common species. You should preserve the endangered ones so they multiply and can be harvested later.
>>5084640How else are you gonna practice
>>5084640psychopathy excludes prey by definition.

>Paleontology in the 80s: Dinosaurs were warm blooded, fast, large, cool, and could do stuff like balance on one leg to avoid an enemy's counter attack.>Paleontology now: Anything that portrays feathered fat dinosaurinos as more threatening than a poodle is muh awesombro fantasy.
>>5082508Are you posting a throwback to the 90s?
>>5083364Where it comes from is irrelevant.Why? Because old fossils hold up under modern scrutiny. These days we're able to investigate for pigment traces in preserved feathers and similar integument. This is something pretty new, and isn't something that you'd predict would be possible back in the past. But, old feathered fossils from China are found to have these pigment traces in them. So either the Chinese predicted that we'd be able to find these pigment traces decades later and painted them on with microscopic brushes, or the fossils are authentic.

Will they go down as the worst taxonomists given their access to information?
There’s just something about huge arthropods (insects, arachnids, crustaceans, etc.) that feels fundamentally “correct” and good. Their existence is inherently right; I’m glad they exist. They are the organismic archetype, biologically perfection incarnate.
