House centipedes. I get these fuckers are pest removers, basically less messy and less efficient spiders
But how the fuck do I stop having actual heart attacks seeing one at 2am in the garage? It's maybe one a year that I see one but I saw two over the last month and I'm about to lose it

No binturong thread? Let's change that.

>The binturong, also called a bearcat, is a medium-sized mammal native to the forests of South and Southeast Asia that is famous for smelling like buttered popcorn. It is also the largest living member of the viverrid family.

>>5159598
They are not technically endangered, but they are almost universally threatened buy habitat encroachment and degradation. The huge forest fires also devastated populations in the effected areas. Most native animals in their territorial range ae suffering the same fate sadly. I really don't want to get all /pol/,but some of the things Australia has been doing lately that's driving land development isn't helping at all. It people were allowed to establish small sanctuary ponds and work with the conservation teams to help them maintain breeding populations kinda like how the kakapo is protected I don't know how well their long term future is going to turn out. It's pretty important more people get involved in stopping habitat loss.

How are these guys so gentle? He's clearly pissed off at the macaque and yet he only shoos it away instead of ripping it apart. I swear pongos are too good for this world
>>
>>5159975
if he wanted to eat it, there would be nothing to stop him
pongos can be just as brutal as chimps if it means extra calories from a small mammal
I like to think they hesitate with fellow primates since they 'see themselves' in them and by extension, will extend the same rules of combat they have amongst themselves to other primates
- avoid conflict if possible
- if conflict is unavoidable, make your opponent back down first
- if they won't back down, hurt them until they leave
- if they refuse to leave, go for the kill
big man knew he didn't have to go whole hog to get monkey boy to back off

I wish that all animals could live together in harmony. No more killing or hurting each other. Just dogs hanging out with cats, rats riding on top of cats, snakes slithering up to rabbits for warmth and cuddles, peace between everyone, no more eating each other like savages.
I just love animals so much why canโ€™t they just be happy and nice to each other?

Everything would evolve into complete R selection, as K selection would no longer confer any benefits. Over a long enough time, all animals would become near-brainless microscopic grazers with as slow of a metabolism as possible, as maximizing how many organisms are supported by a given amount of food becomes the only form of selection pressure.
This is a lesson for OP. All of the things we like about animals can only exist because of violence. Without violence and competition, everything devolves into yeastlife.
