Keep in mind that nuclear weapons would be useless against them and since they possess human-level intelligence, they will quickly figure out how to sabotage drones, take down power lines/grids, organize well-coordinated attacks, etc.

>>5124476It's also part of the backstory of Hatoful Boyfriend. And the comicbook Elmer features partial aspects of it (only chickens gain sapience, all the other birds remain unaffected). However, both of those stories also feature this theme of birds and humans finding common ground and making friends.

Anyone else just watch sheep shearing videos to unwind? It's so relaxing and satisfying.

>>5124475There's a lot more to reading a horse's mood, but it's perfectly accurate.
>>5124475it's alright.as the other anon already said, theres a ton more like reading the entire face too (for example tensed nostrils when pissed in combination with the pinned ears) or hectic movements. horses have a really fluid smooth movement when relaxed and when it's erratic and not smooth then something's up
>>5124324That's really difficult to look at

It is this time of the year to ask once againWhy is it still the best dino documentary for the last 27 years? What causes it to be so unique?
>>5113442>>5113440Is this the show?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AGv5Njyk_nM
>>5124234Unfortunately it's not - it looks more recent than what I actually looking for. But I did gave it a watch anyway, so thanks anon for sharing it - it was definitely worth the watch. Still amazing to watch Philippe Taquet being involved in yet another dino documentary. I've learned that he died in November last year so RIP.As I said in the previous post, I think that the entire documentary night is now completely lost media unless the CNRS or the French Natural Museum somehow have a copy - which I have very high doubts for the latter. I keep on looking for more fragment of informations on the internet and yet like I said it seems like that thing is completely forgotten. I've made some major findings about this.I've found this .pdf on the website form a guy called Michel Fontaine under the Press articles section http://michel-fontaine.fr/presse/arte.pdfSo apparently- the whole Thema night was called 'Le Temps des Dinosaures', was broadcasted on Tuesday, October 19th 1992 and it seems like it was running for 3 hours and 20 minutes. So the VHS I had missed the last 20 minutes or so.- the bigger segment was called 'Dineurosaurus' and part of the description mentions the lesser segments about the British and French naturalists I've previously mentioned in my posts, same as the parts about Montagne Sainte-Victoire or Archaeopteryx.(1/2)
>>512440821:40 – 01:00THE TIME OF THE DINOSAURSThemed evening presented by Philippe Taquet(palaeontologist at the Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle) and Jacques Merry (director)Co-production: LA SEPT-ARTE / SODAPERAGA / CNRS Images Media / la FEMIS / Mikros Image, with the participation of Agence Jules and the CNC.Dinosaurs are back, and while “dinomania” takes hold of the planet, ARTE devotes an evening to them where the “terrible lizards” appear for what they truly are: a first-rate scientific subject and an extraordinary time machine.Dinosaurs make children dream, fascinate the public, draw crowds to exhibitions and to cinemas screening Steven Spielberg’s new film: Jurassic Park. They also captivate the “bone hunters”, the palaeontologists who dig on every continent in search of fossils that will allow them to know and to understand ever better an astonishing episode in the history of life on Earth.Absolute masters of the Earth for 150 million years, dinosaurs have only existed in the human mind for 150 years. In Dineurosaurus, Jacques Merry and Philippe Taquet, professor of palaeontology at the Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle in Paris, first offer us the story of the discovery of dinosaurs by 19th-century European naturalists. They then invite us on a journey through time and across Europe in the footsteps of dinosaurs.From London to Berlin, from Oxford to Lisbon, from Aix-en-Provence to Brussels, in Bavaria and in Spain, Philippe Taquet and his European palaeontologist colleagues bring back to life in the field, in museums and in laboratories, this world that disappeared 65 million years ago – the world of dinosaurs – evoking their origin, their diversity, their evolution, their physiology and their way of life, without forgetting to ask questions about the causes of their disappearance.(2/?)
>>5124409(3/3)https://rentry.org/uxbntcazThis is the rest of the translation of the article. I'm pretty happy just having found these pieces of information. I'm still hopeful to find the whole damn thing, the whole THEMA night I mean.

How do I tame birds?I live in a block of flats, plenty of trees below, a lot of birdsHow do I make friends?I already tried putting nuts and seeds outside my window, but only fucking pigeons came. Fuck pigeons.
You can't.At best some birds can be less afraid of you (crows, robbins...) but that's it.Leave food and make sure they see you. Then leave food and stay around.
>>5124662Learn what different kinds of birds eat. If the birds you want to attract are fruit or insect-eaters then putting seeds out won't do any good. Also note that even among seed-eating birds they have preferences. Some birds won't eat some kinds of seeds. Some of this is a size thing--small birds can't eat large nuts--but some of it is just them being picky.
