>>4909171It's overall anatomy is surprisingly doglike which i guess is what prompted Peters' schizo episode because convergent evolution is not a thing apparently
>>4908894>and should have a margin of error that’s at minimum 1/3rd of that>5 digits
>>4909223WHY IS EVERYONE ON HERE SO FUCKING STUPID
>>4909220Turning a spoon into a fork is easy, you just hammer it flat, cut the scoop into tines and file them into shape then put some curve back in. Turning a fork into a spoon would be much harder.
>>4909340>1/3rd of 30,000 = 10,000Looks like 5 digits to me
>this is a whalePeople actually believe this?
>>4908202lol
>>4907680You can really see it in the skull and teeth
>>4907680Imagine having all the otters, seals, and walruses of the world as a reference and drawing an aquatic mammal like this anyways. Are humans an intelligent species or not?
>>4907680>this is a good postPeople actually believe this?
>>4907701Funny how every board has its own schizos.
why aren't animal rights extended to insects and arthropods?
>>4907936I fully believe you're this stupid
>>4907325It's hard to make a case about not making them suffer when it's unclear if they are even capable of suffering in the first place.
>>4909219Don't you have a mortal man's severed finger to worship right now?

>>4909373Jesus didn't tell us to pray to dead priests.
Meds now editionRats need loveRats need companionshipRats need free roam timeOther rodents welcomeHow do you give medicine to a rat?I usually pin them on their back and get it in their mouth quick, followed by a sweet treat to get rid of the taste (raisin, dried banana etc.)Dillinger was different, he wouldn't fight and just got it done quick (vid rel)

how can I go about treating a large half-feral cat population for mange? capturing them is possible but certainly not easy
>>4909246yeah ok edgelordkill all the cats you're so witty and originalnobody ever told that joke before
>>4909237Your best bet is probably to get a bunch of live traps and spend a few days catching and treating them. There's oral medications and shampoos. Good luck.

damn what a weird looking leaf
if 2 climbing plants climb around each other will they turn 1 plant?
>>4909232They can, but not usually. It's called an approach graft. The plants have to at least be in the same genus and they have to wound each other at the same point and then heal together. It's most common with trees where the branches rub together.
>>4903919In general they like a lot of water, do well in heavy clayey soil, yet are weirdly indifferent to high temperatures and intense daylight in much the same way petunias are.. Celosia excepted, which are very finicky when it comes to growing conditions.

Would you consider the following scenario a form of betrayal?>Your elderly pet has a large tumor in their chest that was detected late>You don't have the money for chemotherapy, and since it's an existing condition, trying to get insurance now wont cover it>Your pet is so old that open chest surgery is likely to kill them, and if it doesn't then you still wont have much if any money left over for their other needs after the surgery when more issues inevitably arise>Suddenly their breathing gets worse seemingly overnight, with them taking rapid short breaths>Had a previous pet you only euthanized when they lost the will to live (on vet recommendation), which meant they had started to suffer, which made you feel wrong for having allowed it to happen at all>Even though they haven't lost the will to live, get them euthanized knowing it will get much worse very quickly (on vet recommendation), and you don't want them to die having their lungs slowly crushed by a growing tumorOn the one hand, your pet certainly trusts that you wont kill them, so you're violating that trust. On the other hand, betrayal requires intent to harm, whereas the euthanasia was performed with the intent to prevent harm./an/'s thoughts?
>>4907947>Could you please elaborate on why?Because that's what it felt like when I did it. This is a situation where there aren't any right answers, only wrong ones. But some are less wrong than others. You did the best you could and I wouldn't ever hold it against you, I'm just warning you that the least wrong answer is to spend as much money as you can to try and save it until the vets just tell you there isn't any more they can do, and some people might hold it against you for not doing that.
>>4907946>t. narcissist
You should read "The Deathbird" by Harlan Ellison
>>4907694Even if you have the money for chemo or surgery, the pet won't have 'hope' for the future so if the chances are bad it's most likely not worth the suffering. Better spend the money you do have for taking days off and giving it a great last day(s) followed by a home visit euthanasia.Your pet trusts you to do the best for it.I had to get my old cat euthanized and while she was mostly 'just' starving due to cancer If I could chance the decision I'd demand it a week earlier.
>>4907694>tumorYou already betrayed your pet by feeding him carbs instead of raw meat.
How can anyone go swimming far offshore in shark waters?
>>4884387Shark migrate through the whole ocean throughout their life cycle and have specific preference in diet during it. They can enter a period of growth where they are in x area and prefer y kind of foods. There is a chance that sharks in socal don't consider human to be ideal meal for their specific life cycle. I do quite bit of fishing so I know predator fishes key in on specific preys during specific seasons and areas. Sharks are probably the same. Therefore, sharks can key on specific preys while they are in socal but not as picky when they are in another area, such as Africa or australia
