If our arousing adventure across Africa has awoken some primal urges within you, it's time to accquaint yourself with the lengthy lance of the giraffe.

I have a rat in the kitchen. He's shrewd. Steals potatoes out of the traps without setting them off. I've already cut off all sources of food and water and laid out poison and traps. Also a ramikin with salt water in hopes he'll dehydrate himself, but I have my doubts. Any good ideas?I love pet rats, but this guy is no pet.

He screamed for a while but then came running out.The girls at work gave me some Nutella to use as bait. They swear by it. There is no other food or water in his part of the house at all. Only traps and poison.

>>5159254Thanks I'll try. It's hard as an apartment rentcuck without a balcony
>>5159295if you need to keep it indoors point a small fan in the direction of the plant but not directly on it on low, that'll help draw away excess moisture. did you check the soil itself? does the mold go underneath? scrape it all out and maybe get some fresh soil to put a layer on. don't mist or water it excessively until you remove whatever it is
If you give it more light the soil will be drier and you won't have mold problems
The bottoms of those pots HAVE to have been cut out right? There's no way those tiny planters cut support plants that big. Watering them alone would be a total nightmare.
If my echeveria keeps making leaves with little clefts in them, if I propogate those clefted leaves, is there any realistic chance it'd grow a plant that has all clefted leaves?
I have a male hedgehog. Apparently he likes his "boy time" (as people call it) a lot, but does it when nobody is around to clean up after him. This leads to his cum matting up his fur and basically forming concrete tough hairballs.The shit is literally as tough as superglue and very difficult to remove. Soaking helps a little, as does soap.However, even with a stiff toothbrush and a lot of caution, he still ends up with some left in his fur.He tries to assist me in cleaning it by holding the toothbrush and exposing his neck for me to gently clean it.But there has to be an easier way to do this. I have his total trust, but he starts to get fussy if cleaning it takes too long.He'll tolerate maybe 20 minutes of grooming before he decides he's done being groomed and wants to play or eat.Any ideas are appreciated. Thank you for your time.PS:My boy says, *sniff sniff sniff* "chirp chirp", which is his happy to be clean and hello verbals.
>>5159930Stop doing it in front of him and then he might stop trying to mimmick
>>5160142Nobody does that in front of him. It's just something male hedgehogs instinctively do or do in their sleep. The first time I ever noticed the residuals was after one of his naps.At first I though they were little skin tags, because the concretions were tiny, flat, and dangling of his underbelly skin. So...I carefully snipped one away so he wouldn't get it caught on something and end up with an injury from tearing his skin.It was then that I noticed it was a solid matting of fur as if he'd been superglued. I gave him a bath and the rest came out on their own. Now the gobs of "glue" are ridiculous (despite being infrequent) and more difficult to get out.Hedgehogs have sensitive skin so most soaps are unsafe to use. We use a special baby shampoo, which works nicely and is safe for hedgies. However, i still have to carefully brush out the goo with a toothbrush and some of it always remains because that shit is almost like gorilla glue.It's fortunate that he's a trooper and usually lets me clean him without a fuss. He's remarkably patient and tolerant for a hedgehog.Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
I remember reading somewhere about a hedgehog that actually bit off half his penis.

Humans, no contest. They are completely incapable of surviving on their own, and are destroying their own habitats out of greed and gluttony.

whats the difference between jungles and rainforests? "theyre both in tropical/subtropical areas" i dont live in either and im near a rainforest whats actually different about them
>>5160456>whats the difference between jungles and rainforests?Annual rainfall. Simple as.
>>5160456Usually, jungle just refers to density. There's no specific way to measure it, it's just means the speaker considers a particular piece of forest particularly thick.However, because the lower rainfall levels in the dry season leave trees smaller and thus let more light reach the floor and thus more vegetation grows there, if you wanted something more scientific you could use "jungle" as a colloquial term for a monsoon forest - ie a tropical forest in areas with a monsoon climate.
>>5160456A jungle is a tropical rainforest. Non-jungle rainforests can exist in temperate areas like New Zealand and the Pacific Northwest.

>>5150982The passenger pigeon and Carolina parakeet. If they were still around I'd probably just see them outside everyday which makes their loss feel much more tangible.
>>5152241>Our carnivorous tendencies. basically every animal extinction and mass extirpation we caused was driven by us eating them or killing them off cuz they were eating our sources of meat or competed for resources by said meat source (livestock).It's a significant factor but it's far from "basically all" of them, invasive species and deforestation are each just as significant of a chunk and even for the animals that we directly hunted to extinction it wasn't always for food, like the sea mink.
Neanderthals and Homo Erectus. We just know how roughly they looked and that they hunted with spears and such. I really wanna know how they lived.
>>5153006I think that a major factor for island bird species extinction was predation by Polynesian introduced species that acted as land predators (e.g. rats, dogs, and pigs) of both adult birds and more importantly eggs. Chickens originated from Southeast Asia and had behaviors/ reproductive rates that allowed them to handle that shit. Isolated Pacific island bird species did not. I can’t see anything other than the local mallard spinoff species working out domestication wise.
