>>5069905i guess so lmao
>>5074694Sources about this? Everywhere i've seen they are more chill than chimps.
>>5075035It's just anti-lgbt propaganda, since bonobos became a queer poster animal.Truth: bonobos can be violent but are still way more chill than chimpanzee.
>>5071650It's not a thing, dog dick won't fit in a cat.
>>5075035https://cbs.umn.edu/blog-posts/not-so-gentle-bonoboshttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41056910/There was also a 2014 paper I've cited here before that I'm not going to be able to find before I've gotta get driving to work, I'll try and find it later.The basics: Male Bonobos fight each other more often than male chimps, and the ones that start and win the fights have more reproductive success than the losers. They are less likely to kill each other in these fights than male chimps. But they do still kill each other, the form of the violence is just different, instead of males killing over territory and hierarchy, like in chimps, female bonobos form collations and kill male bonobos for showing insufficient deference to females, which is unseen in chimps.
The tiger is singularly the most aesthetic animal in the animal kingdom, arguably the most beautiful thing ever created by nature

The Alpha Wolf who is the leader of the pack is so not because he is the most aggressive or courageous. He is the Alpha because he is the best at protecting his pack.

I am a parrot owner, and I do not support the breeding of parrots as pets, at least in its current form. I currently have four parrots, and may be adopting a fifth (as its owner is unable to provide the care and companionship it needs and is thinking of giving it up). I think the damage is done (and it's not like they can all be released into the wild) but I don't think these animals should be pets. The best we can do is just adopt the ones left and give them as close as possible in terms of mental stimulation and exercise as the wild. Yes, I know nature is cruel and the wild would have them preyed on, but they still get lots of foraging/exercise in the wild too, that you have to provide them with. I would be in favour of needing a licence for all parrots, including budgerigars, and a short course of ownership/proper care, similar to some reptiles. I would also be in favour of yearly welfare checks by each country's animal welfare society because people just treat these animals who can feel pain and have the intelligence of 3-7 year olds (yes, even budgies) very similar to humans as disposable and give them terrible living conditions with no enrichment and don't do the necessary steps to keep them healthy.
You don't have to do any of that. Just prohibit importation and place a mandatory tax on domestic parrot sales to make the cost so big that only people who are willing to commit to the price can be able to keep one as they will have a vested interest in looking after the parrot properly. It has already worked for a bunch of species and often people can only affordably get something like an African Gray from a rescue which have very strict and extensive vetting policies to the point that you have to be proven to be able to look after previous parrots properly. My mother has parrots and she got a Gray easy because she had already taken on a bunch of lesser species from them and proven she was responsible.
>>5074575That's a great idea. Right now, prices are made based I suppose on arbitrary things like size, colour, clutch size, etc.A budgerigar is little, so they essentially breed them like sardines and make them cheap. My budgerigar was only 45 dollars, which I genuinely would've paid far more for him. I didn't, and don't want to support these asshole pet shops, but I was concerned he would be an inexperienced person's Christmas purchase and die in pain of neglect/exposure, etc. Touch wood, he is five now.
>>5074573I think you should have to study for and pass exams to own exotic pets, and possibly have a volunteer contact hour requirement with them prior to buying one too. The people that would whine its too much hassle would be the low-effort shitters not going the extra mile for that animal's welfare and the truly obsessed enthusiasts would still be able to have their menagerie of lemurs and rainbow macaws and dwarf caimans or whatever the fuck else.
>>5074573Get a tiny horsie. They are smarter, can be house trained, they are chick magnets, fuzzy and cute and mine goes everywhere with me.
>>5074821You're not wrong. Plus it would be an IQ filter, unironically.

What's the coolest animal you've ever seen in the wild?
Male Common Scorpionfly. Learned about them here on /an/ and did not expect to ever see one when apparently they just live here in central Europe and one landed on me nonchalantly.
>>5067228That’s a super tough one. I’ve been lucky enough to do a ton of traveling, and I always make seeing the wildlife a priority. I’ve seen sloths and ocelots in Costa Rica and newborn hyenas in the Okavango Delta. I saw a cornetfish fight some poor other fish while scuba diving in Lahaina, got wayyyy too up close and personal with like four or five horned vipers in the Plitvice Lakes National Park, and most recently saw a Humboldt penguin (not to mention some boobies) on the Ballestas islands off the coast of Peru. My personal favorite of them all, though, would be the two times I’ve been approached by foxes. My first day in Egypt I got hammered on some Monkey Shoulder and a wild fox took a hard boiled egg right out of my hand in the middle of the night. And my very next trip, to London, ANOTHER fox came right up to me before I had even dropped my luggage at my Airbnb. It was like I was being greeted by an ambassador of the fox nation to thank me for my contribution during my previous trip. Fucking magical, at least I got the latter on video
A fox!
dolphins
Saw an otter which I thought was pretty cool.

>>5064965>Vets will tell you a cat doesn't know it has balls and it won't miss them, but of course they know something is wrong/different.Complete strawman. I have never even heard of a vet saying anything like this. Take your meds, schizo.>>5074553You too. Take your meds. Now. You're creating some weird leaps there, retard.>>5064918There are a shit ton of uninsured drivers out there in the US, yes, even in the states that require it (which is all but like... two). It's something like 15% nationwide for legal drivers (and rising), and of course 100% for illegal drivers.
>>5074560What leaps am I making? All I said was that there is no 3rd party in my connection to my pets. There is no council or state that agrees if I can pet my cat or something. If I do not feed it or mistreat it, the cat will leave. The 2 sides have their freedoms and terms and services. A cat that is aggressive will drive me away and a human that is aggressive will drive the cat away. We do not need the government or insurance companies in our connection.
>>5064730ngl I felt bad for letting my family castrate our cat. it just felt wrong to me. I would have been against it but one day I got home and my mom was like "he was castrated today :)" and at that point there was no use in saying or doing anything, but I felt guilty nonetheless.
Cats with their sex organs are vermin. The entire species was a failure of domestication like foxes before spay and neuter. No function. No benefit. Only piss, and hordes. Spay and neuter is why you can be a "cat person" without being an occultist or a delusional feral-feeder who thinks they are too smart, rather than too dumb, to be domesticated. The entire mouser myth originates from people trying to find an excuse to keep them alive because they’re cute. Cats are incapable of eliminating rodent infestations. They can only make pests be more sneaky.
>>5074068This isn’t trolling lmaoCats unironically DO enjoy being castrated. They have basically no mind so fewer unfulfilled urges is better for them. They’re not like, dogs. They can’t redirect energy and better themselves. There are no health benefits beyond intact cays being compatible with free feeding (useless and retarded). They just piss, yowl, and fuck. That’s it.And dogs really do own their humans. A cat will slot into its role. A dog will throw a fit if they don’t get what they want. Cats are easy to drug. Nothing works on dogs 100%.
It's basically just a speargun with legs
>>5073757I love seeing crocs get btfo'd
>>5074271An adult crocodile would make shredded rotisserie chicken out of any heron in seconds. Waterfowl are food for aquatic reptiles.
>probably the most successful family of land vertebrates ever>no living descendantsWhy?
>>5066884They were successful after the great dying. When niches were refilled they were outcompeted by archosauriforms.
>>5074606Yeah, I would imagine that though they bounced back, the archosaurs ended up evolving and outcompeting them into extinction.
>>5074607Rhynchosaurs' radiation in the Ladinian was the nail on the coffin IMO. Kannemeyeriiformes managed to keep going by reaching pachyderm sizes to avoid direct competition with rhynchosaurs and predation by large suchians but such trophic level increase and overspecialisation made them vulnerable to the the T-J extinction (which ironically also killed off both rhynchosaurs and large suchians, lol)
>>5066884because the Permian mass extinction was excessively brutal,idiot
>>5074619They survived the End Permian Mass Extinction. They died out in the late Triassic faunal turnover.
