>>5071786I think you can give it maxsea fertilizer on the leaves, or fish flakes if you want.
>>5071401Wish I had the space for them. I want a grove of Paulownia.

Thoughts on the secretary Bird?
>>5012008They do look aesthetic, just not the most aesthetic
Here's how I would fix most pet animal welfare issues (at least in the West); I haven't decided yet about how to deal with the many issues plaguing livestock. I'm Australian, so a lot of my points will be from that lens. I'm not a bleeding heart, I'm not a vegan, I don't support PETA; I think these are very easy, practical things that can be done right now to help animals we keep as pets. I know some of you will think these are controversial. >All dog breeders not only require a licence, but each bitch can only have one litter every two years minimum >Pitbulls are to be no more as a breed. The dogs live confused, aggressive, lives of pain and inflict pain on others. Each Pitbull is to be adopted, and requires the same licence a dingo does, and any Pitbull pups are to be culled. The breed will be gone in a decade. >All cats are to be kept indoors, or to have a suitable, restrained cattery outside. Cats caught outside are impounded, and, if not claimed, culled, as in Australia>Much like with dogs, each cat breeder is to sire one litter, but because there is such a prolific problem with strays and feral cats, they will be forced to sire a litter every three years, not two. >Both cats and dogs must be desexed if not bred. >All parrot breeding is outlawed. Parrots can be owned, and I don't think a licence to own them will make much difference (at this stage), but every single parrot is to be adopted. After a grace period of about a decade or two, MAYBE the parrot trade can resume, with breeders HEAVILY licenced, and requiring aviaries. No hand rearing is allowed, and owners must also then have a licence teaching them taming techniques from an 'untame' bird.If you break these regulations, you get a fine, to the amount of about minimum 5000 USD/10000 (aka the cost of a designer dog).
>le pitbulls are bad
>>5072055My idea is a little simpler.Every year issue tags in limited quantities. Breeder tags for pet creation with species limitations and owner tags for purchasing pets. The price of tags is determined by how many are issued that year. How many are issued are based inversely on number of pets in shelters and estimated feral population. Mammalian pets require rfid tags and/or a collar that has their tag number on it. Birds get bands. Things like failure to get check ups or animals found in negligent conditions is a 10 year blacklist from buying tags and a misdemeanor that can be upgraded to a felony if it's bad enough or there's enough animals involved. Pets like rabbits, rats and ferrets don't require rdif or collars but do require tags.Exemptions made for livestock because this is America. Adoption doesn't require you to purchase a tag but one will be issued and you'll be registered as its owner (blacklisted people cannot adopt). Untagged animals are automatically forfeited to shelters regardless of how you aquired it.
>>5072055>each bitch can only have one litter every two years minimumI'd propose a lifetime limit for both males and females
>>5072089to elaborate, I mean for the sake of preventing the gene pool from getting quite as concentrated onto just a handful of show winnersand now I'm thinking on the topic, what could be done about dog shows/kennel clubs to stop (or ideally undo) the gradual caricaturing that's happened to dog breeds over the past 100-150ish years?
>>5072087Oh right and proceeds from the sales of tags will be used 1/3rds pay for the operating costs and oversight of tag program 1/3rd goes to shelters and 1/3rd funds public bounties on feral animals.
post ducks please

>>5071693If we go by average german height around the 1920s and 1930s it would depend on whether you consider 5'8 being in manlet territory or not. All else being equal he's still pretty big and was the star attraction for the Berlin Zoo prior to the second world war as he died in 1936. Funnily enough post war the star attraction became a bare eyed cockatoo that screamed heil hitler so much that the zoo considered putting it down due to fears of retribution from the denazification laws being passed in occupied Berlin.
>>5071695That fookin legend was from Munich Zoo, I believe.
Why doesnt he have a trunk?
>>5071672lol

Is there a better way to protect the ecosystem than culling the human population by the billions?

>>5068535>beauty that only exists in the eye of aforementioned beholderYou fucking what?
>>5068473Orcs are artificial creatures created entirely to be soldiers, there is no orc society outside of the soldiers. They are all enemy combatants.I wish these "clever" artists would actually read the thing they're complaining about.
Animals are so lucky that they don't have the same kind of self awareness and emotional intelligence that humans do.
>>5071289I dunno about that OP: there's some really fucking dumb humans out there.

>>5067149being semi-aquatic is interesting. It's like a mix between a huge therapod, a crocodile, and a storkyou just see dinosaurs as action figures to fight each other. yeah, t rex wins every matchup and it's not even close. That doesn't mean t rex is the only cool dinosuar
Bumping to save mr skeletal
I still don't get why it has become the most overrated Theropod ever
>>5067151I don't get the argument of "it makes it more interesting" as if a giant bipedal predator isn't also interesting. It's just a matter of preference
>>5067149>weak fish eatery'know I never understood this point, since it implies that diet determines something's strength.In my opinion, rex's strong bite comes not from prey selection, but more of being able to break large bones to consume.Animals with huge biteforces are, more often than not, achieve that as result from diet selection. This is why panda bears have stronger bites than polar bears, parrots having stronger bites than birds of prey, hyenas over lions, etc.and T.rex's bite could be half as strong, and it would still likely be just as formidable as a predator to ceratopsians and other ornithopods it lived with.
I love hyenas, striped hyenas are my favorites
>>5069267>>5069269Meds, autist
>>5071840Well fed actually, just ate dinner. :)
>retard deleted his postsA testament to my efforts, no one on this thread has even said anything incorrect. Unfortunately, that guy must have had amnesia and forgot that I'm him, I've been him, and I will continue to he him. But he thought he was me, and that there were still people who needed to be educated about hyenas on 4chan.
>>5071968Maybe just a quirk of my browser, but the call out post disappeared later. Maybe, assuming he is also the "fed anon", he might be one of those pathetic freaks that deletes his own posts and then whines about jannies.
>>5071971Probably.
>armadillos expanding their range naturally>several states have them listed as invasive speciesWhy are "conservationists" so retarded? What exactly are they trying to conserve?
>>5071362Fuck! Meant to tag this one with>It's a generalist that also lives in the fucking Amazon
>>5067538I have been all over the outdoors of the southeast and Texas and have never seen a god man armadillo. I'm a 50yr old zoomer btw
>>5071773Who said leprosy originated in Armadillos? Not me.Who said leprosy spreads through Armadillos? Me.Don't touch armadillos, they spread leprosy. Faggot.
>>5071928I retract my comment and have no reason to keep watching the threadgo get em armadillos!
>>5071362>>Its range is expanding northwardYou actually believe this?
