>>5072943>The point of NNN was originally to get guys to stop jerking off so that their horny energy can be redirected into getting actually laidI don't want to get laid. Females are the most dangerous social, financial, legal, and health liability that exists in life. I would be suicidal to involve myself with one in any way. I remain safe by jerking off to hack the leftover biological impulses that we no longer have need for as an intelligent species.

>>5073007It isn't, it's poltards not realizing people who don't get laid are unlikable to begin with.

Seems like their whole race is content in being mid-tier ecosystem niche filler
>>5075100my guess is their speed and slitheriness is their strong suit which they would lose if they became bigger, and they wouldn't be able to compete with other large predators that already fill those niches
>>5075100They have tried. Their build doesn’t scale well. The small ones like stoats essentially survived whatever took the dinosaurs out. The the sub 3kg ones are the apex in the niches they fill. They’re more like minmaxers than jobbers. Stoats and Weasels have the best power/strength/speed ratios in their weight class.
>>5075100Megalictis was a weasel the size of small bear or large cougar. They couldn't compete with other mega fauna. I'm guessing the weasel platform is just too high energy demand to get bigger than wolverines.
>>5075100bears
OH N-
>>5075029They’re related to pufferfish
>>5074578What exception? It's been working fine, so confirming the rule.
>>5074861chaos infused?
>>5075025>>5074660Do they taste good? This seems like untapped potential, imagine if they had low infant mortality.
>>5075208No, not at all, their entire survival strategy revolves around their muscles being really sinewy and hard to get, AND being nasty and poisonous. The example in the op is extremely rare. Also the sunfish in the OP is still alive.
Fuck yeah
>>4991417>>4991555>>5017493>>5020325>>5020781>>5021148>A 2019 genome study (cladogram below) finds that Giraffidae are a sister taxon to Antilocapridae, with an estimated split of over 20 million years ago.I'm losing my fucking mind.I'm tempted to believe Africa and North America must have been connected (relatively) more recently, if only briefly, but then it wouldn't explain the seeming arbitrary nature of the roster of animals exchanged. Elephants, rhinos, zebras, giraffes, lions, all made the exchange, but then only one group of monkeys made it over and our porcupines are convergent and not even related to one another.
>>5072938Both groups existed in Asia, which is connected to both Africa and North America. No need for an African/American connection

"don't talk to me or my daughter ever again" editionFound a juvenile widow in my charcoal chimney. She's still got the gold stripe down her back. I'll have to get her set up with a bigger enclosure soon but I think she's okay in the sling box for now. Also think the middle widow is working on some eggs, it's been a week or so since she ate and she's still looking thicc.

Saw one of the wasps infecting my house repeatedly fly into my window while carrying this strange looking dead fat grub without legs.
Unexpected guest. The vent fan mesh in my RV broke and this bee fella wandered inside. He was flying everywhere crazy then literally flew into a USB fan with metal blades. Then he took a break on that container. I took him outside with a cup but maybe should have let him stay the night since it is getting cold now.
>>5074567That's not a bee homie, that's actually a hoverfly. They're super cool little guys and are mistaken for bees all the time. Cool that you saw one
General for the discussion of rodent care with a focus on rats3 year old editionPic rel is Burroughs taken in June who passed on Saturday at about 3 years old>Rats need love >Rats need companionship >Rats need free roam time >Other rodents welcome Rat first aid: http://neratsociety.co.uk/articles/firstaid.shtml Good and bad food: https://squeaksandnibbles.com/safe-foods-for-rats/
burroughs is a nice name 4 a rat, i salute him op
I keep hearing about all kinds of different successful longevity experiments for rats, but did they ever try to combine them all? I keep searching papers and articles, and keep finding nothing. Anyone have any idea?
did you know that there are mice living inside your walls right now?
>>5075125But i don’t own a cat. There’s nothing to attract mice. I do monthly urine checks and have baited live catch stations all over and there are 0 rodents
>>5075125first world countries build their walls out of concrete so no
Post birds, appreciate birds

>>5003749I must have flown under/trough, in my sedan, about 20 blackbird flocks, about a thousand each, just yesterday. Beauty like that is pretty thrilling. sublime as it were.
If you have a budgie or a similar bird, buy balsa wood sticks like thess, they are mainly used for craftsMine go crazy over them. It is a soft wood and they chew through one in minutes.

With winter coming how do you deal with the guilt you can't save the street animals?
>>5074791They give the cinkerinoes something to eat and make great lo main for you.
>>5074791My mom puts out a fresh bowl of antifreeze for them so they don't freeze to death.
would it be okay to take a single kitty home for winter and kick him out when spring comes?
>>5075093Send all stray pets to shelters. Ignore any that do TNR. TNR harms cats and the environment.
i don’t think they give a shit unless it’s 0 degrees and wet
I don't know what to do bros.. I'm devastated >be me>have a 5 gallon tank>betta, 2 african dwarf frogs, some ghost shrimp>feel like they want another friend>add another betta, keep him separate for first day>things are going great>release him>he immediately charges my other betta and viciously attacks it, killing it within minutes>decide to teach him that's not okay>pull him out and flick him hard on the head>he instantly goes limp>a day later, he's still not movingI've been crying for a full day now.. Any advice?
That's... that's ...Well, I blame the selective breeders that made those animals MORE agressive than their original state, instead of the other way aroundWell, don't cry, if you really care about those animals you should read a lot about themJust so you know how to take good care of them... if you don't put the efford you have no right to cry for fucking upJust be a better man, take care of that agressive prick until it dies or recovers Life goes on, try not to spend your time crying over spilled milk, just be better
I don't think fish understand positive punishment, retard. I hope this is b8
>>5074604What? Every animal knows not do do something again if it causes them pain.
lately /an/ is quickly overtaking /x/ in the sprint to achieve total brain death. you should have said you kept the betta in a bowl. 5 gallons is plenty for a single fish.
Of all of the species of butterflies and moths, which one would you say is the most beautiful, /an/?I'm casting my vote for the Madagascar sunset moth (Chrysiridia rhipheus).
>>5073698Google says this is a waved sphinx moth, is that true?
>>5071241>>5074572Imagine seeing these in person. They're both the size of a bird.
My mom once told me about a guy that she talked to who was an undertaker and had a house full of pet moths. He would just let them fly around in there. Someone should write him into a book or movie.
>>5070561I don't know shit about butterflies but have this one from last summer Completely forgot its name though, but biggest butterfly I've seen here
