Uh oh, you tried to get intimate with the vacuum cleaner and got electrocuted to death! But its not all bad, you made God laugh with your retardation so he offers you a deal: you get to reincarnate as a random animal and get a chance to live your best life with your past memories intact!

Roll 1 (one) random animal, tell us what you got, and tell us what you do with your newfound chance at a fresh start!

healesville sanctuary has an interactive platypus encounter, but you have to book months in advance. San Diego zoo has a pair you can go see and they have a live webcam

Reminder that this is the sole schizo spamming paragraphs upon paragraphs seethe about cats. It's obvious when he gets banned since the paragraphs of seethe stop for a few days across all /an/ threads.

If you check the archive it almost entirely anti dog schizo posts getting deleted. Very telling that you lie about this.

It's one obsessed "guy" that got so badly btfo in the dog thread that they became obsessed with ruining /an/. You can farm (you)'s off him at anytime of the day or night. It's really quite entertaining.

4 year long troll campaign that started with attempts to frame /dog/ posters for bestiality and falseflagging as a zoosadist while begging the mods to move /dog/ to trash. The framing stage was quite disgusting and still happens because this troll wants leos owner to leave really badly.
In other words, mental illness

People are sleeping on these kings. Everyone knows about plants and animals. Some smarty pantses know that fungi are neither.

But only the wisest know kelp isn't a plant. Protists deserve more credit!

The slime mold obviously can't know about terrain being a limiting factor because the gel plate USA it was placed on was flat. But even on a plate with accurate topography, I'm afraid slime molds are too unaware of trains (or the building of structures to accomodate for trains) to figure this one out for us.

tbf orcas didn't start preying on sea otters until their usual cetacean prey was depleted by the whaling industry. Then they moved on to preying on seals, then sea lions, and then finally sea otters.

Whaling industry fucked up the entire ecosystem balance.
