>>5107323>tfw casually reminded of the barn cams in the stallThe heck
>>5107323Generally, yeah. Some animals are just like that. Tigers respond much better to women than men; Baboons respond strongly towards men and basically ignore women.
>>5107372ah, but is that caused by the species or the sex?>>5107364wait, so everyone can see me booping her nose?
>>5107382>caused by the species or the sex?Yes.Different species respond differently to different sexes. Tigers are wary of males, because in their species males are aggressive and territorial and everyone wants them to fuck off, except females during mating season. Baboons of both sexes are hilariously misogynistic, everything revolves around what the head male wants, and there's a lot of sucking up to him for favor, while females are basically ignored by both sexes, though I imagine female baboons are thinking "who does that bitch think she is" when a woman tries to train them. Horses have their own peculiarities about the sexes. They generally expect a bossy female who has to be obeyed, but they also expect that she can be replaced by any mare that can get one up on her. Stallions are a bit scary, but all the mares want one around regardless, and he's important and they're usually content to let him have his way. Sort of "happy stallion, happy band," and that attitude can work out in the human's favor. Though you still have to watch out for mares who suspect they'd be better leaders, as they'll try to bully you to see if you're bullyable. Stallions also like to have a male buddy or leader, at least up until acquiring mares gets involved. They can form really strong bonds in bachelor herds, which can sometimes last for some time after one of them acquires a band of mares -- the lead stallion's lieutenant doesn't get to breed any of them, but he gets to hand out with his bro and get safe and grow big and strong until he can get his own band.

>>5092197Why are birds so fucking cool?
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.
>>5105067Birds with human level intelligence wouldn't just sit around in slingshot range like those ones the Chinese killed. No, we're smart enough to keep out of sight and gather in remote, hidden locations.
>>5105142please refer to >>5103936There's simply no place in the world where birds can just gather and hide in safety to build their nests that's not in range of human missiles, or out of the scope of human radars. And yes, there is such thing as birds radars, as a matter of fact, all air radars, be it weather or military, are bird radars after a few technical adjustments.

COWS DEMONSTRATE FLEXIBLE MULTI-PURPOSE TOOL USECows are now UNDENIABLY far more intelligent than cats and 99% of mammals. If you think it's wrong to eat cats, then you must feel the same way about cows and pigs.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGVo41MuLiQ“The only well-documented case of something comparable comes from chimpanzees, on those – also rare – occasions when they fish for termites by combining the functions of the two opposite ends of the same stick,” Osuna-Mascaró told BBC Science Focus.https://www.sciencefocus.com/news/cow-tool-use https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/first-ever-flexible-tool-use-seen-in-a-cow-suggests-livestock-are-smarter/
>>5104147Cows are like dogs when heavily socialized. I'd still eat them, because it shows respect for their purpose of providing food. People raise rabbits for the same reason.
>>5104147most people don't have this attitude and get mad if you treat cats the same as cows
>>5094225jeetspam
>>5094319The joke is they are made of poop.
>>5104147I don't like cats

>>5107165no, because rodents are filthy creatures regardless of trash, they literally piss and shit everywhere, i cant remember why about the shit, but pissing is how they find their way around
>>5107113Here you go.Limaria keohea, btw
>>5107307Ah yes, the Scottish vagina in it's natural habitat.
>>5106723Even if this were true, they're not being starved or anything
>>5105785Police are hyper attuned to bitingIf you get bit by a [ghetto ass individual] it's 6 months of biweekly testing iirc for hepatitis and viruses Also you naturally can't bang your police wifeSo they probably see that buck toothed animal and are testy
>adopting stray cathow does this work? i've seen comments of people saying this. do they just find a cat outside and take it home?
>>5105873We still have them in philly
if you're unsure you can take care of a cat, just build an outside shelter with like a old rubbermaid bin...plenty people do it in my cityfeed it scraps every now and then and see if it wants to truly stick around
like this
>>5105883>You 'own' an outdoor cat the same way you 'own' outdoor furniture, It's a dick move to take it but it's not really the end of the world.????
It works just like wallets or laptops really, if you see one unattended you can just take it
>Carp politely craps into water, Dog craps onto pavement, Cat craps onto garden lawn. >Carp makes inaudible sounds, Dog barks annoyingly, Cat meows and hisses. >Carp live for several decades, Dogs live for one decade and Cats just two. Is Carp Aquaculture too underrated, has Cat & Dog Culture gone too far? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LV1ZHGh8iLY
>>5106323Im invested. Post more cool carp variants
What are the theoretical limits of carp size?
I like koi.
It's too bad carp taste awful. Like a tougher, more flavorless tilapia that repels sauce.They grow anywhere and outcompete every other animal for food.
>>5106316they're ugly bastards but I appreciate them
>>5105689https://www.trilobites.info/trilovent.htm
>>5105673Basically water roaches. I like them
I like 'em
>>5105673I find it very weird the no species of trilobite adapted to land has ever been found.They existed for hundreds of millions of years, an like most arthropds, seem pre-adapted for walking on land.hell, there isn't even evidence of fresh water trilobites, shit is just weird.
>>5105673Its not fair. It should have been me...
How to clean up dogshit inside?It's making me gag and it's on a carpet and some tiles, should I just burn the carpet?Is bleach the best thing?
>>5107221Only dog owners are nose blind to their garbage smelling mutts
>>5107218>carpetWell theres the problem right there, that and not letting your dog out to shit. Remove the carpet and leave your floor as bare wood with a wood paint finish or get some vinyl/laminate to cover the concrete foundation. For any left over residue use undiluted dettol/lysol, the stuff can even clean up blood stains with enough elbow grease.
>carpetamericans are inherently unhygienic to astounding levels. remove the carpet and replace it with tiles, wear slippers indoors, and train your cat to shit in the fucking litter box.
>>5107280>catyeah my bad. in that case go out with your dog more often. i guess you're some kind of wagie working 16 hrs a day, to which i say>WHY THE FUCK DO YOU KEEP A PET IN THE FIRST PLACE?
>>5107275In the interest of /an/, I want to mention that linoleum, actual linoleum, not the vinyl kind, is plant-based and has no plastic.It's the flooring I would have gotten, but my condo requires we have carpet for soundproofing.
Tell us, friends, what are your thoughts on the Orange People and their delightful facial features?

Remember that anon who had a duck that nested in his garden every year to raise her ducklings, I wonder what happened to him and his duck wife.
Spiders are like having a cat in your house but better:>neither give a fuck about you, spiders are lower maintanence>spiders kill actual vermin (insects) rather than small birds which do nothing wrong >spiders kill bugs effectively while cats are shit for rodent control>both fiercely-independent autistic little fuzzy predators
