Indians haven't even figured out how to stop humans from getting run over by trains yet, they're a few more steps behind when it comes to other species

So does this finally and conclusively prove that trains are the apex predator of the Indian subcontinent? Can we start posting trains here now?

I think 3 of my cats were kidnapped and sold to people.
They might have been killed also but I found no bodies.
Is it legal to get revenge if you suspect the person who has done it?
Maybe burn their house down? accidentely of course.

A friend of mine his mum bought an older horse when she went to the vet they discovered a chip and they found out it was reported stolen in a different state. They contacted the owners but they didn't want it back (too far away and the horse was oldish), so she kept it

>3 of my cats
If they’re outside and not well fenced (cant escape) they’re not really your cats

Thank you for being a better source of tamed stray cats than the animal shelter

If you care about your cat, keep them indoors like a responsible pet owner.

Male tortoises do fight each other during breeding season by charging at each other like wrecking balls to try and flip one over and they also have strong bites so unless one of them has the idea to bite down on the others neck to strangle them before they can retract then yeah they can probably kill each other but it'd be the slowest fight ever.

I kept one for two months because it was hibernating somewhere idk and woke up prematurely. It walked everywhere instead of flying but usually stayed in a cardboard box, likely because that's where the food was. It took off on a sunny day in spring.

Cat bodied zebrafish

hi, i'm kind of in a pickle here and any input would be greatly appreciated.

Pic related is my family's cat, she's 11 years old and recently she had a surgery to remove a tumor from her paw. After a biopsy, we found out that it's a malignant tumor and our vet strongly recommended that we started the chemotherapy already, and that we don't need to worry because, other than taking her to the clinic once a week, she would get to extend her life expectancy with comfort.

Another veterinarian asked for an xray of her chest and it was established that her lungs are clean, and that amputating her affected leg would probably "save" her from the cancer and she would get to live the rest of her life normally (except with 3 paws).

which vet do you think makes more sense here? did you ever have a pet with cancer before? what did you do? I've been told chemotherapy side effects are a lot easier to handle for cats. Any experience you can share would help me get at least some sense of the situation.

depends on the type of cancer they found. Some metastasize or spread faster than others. In general, removing the tumor is probably your best bet, although even with removal some type of cancers may have already spread elsewhere. It's good your second vet asked for chest x rays - its a good screening test for spread elsewhere.

If you want to be sure, I'd consult with a oncologist. Otherwise, amputation/removal is probably your best bet, both in terms of cost and efficacy. But again, depends on the type of tumor.

Yo OP, please tell us what happened to your cat. I have never seen a cat that i didn't like, but yours seems especially great. Not even lying.

Penguin social distancing arranges them in a sort of honeycomb pattern. Low ranking birds nest in the middle of hexagons and take fire from every direction.

People obsessed with modern living and city-life structure cannot comprehend man living in such a way, it's like a fairy tale to them. It causes a form of cognitive dissonance.

The sentinelese people are not against integrating new resources and technologies when the opportunity is available like when they harvested that ship. Have to avoid the whole noble savage idea as well, they are just people. People freaking out at them when they've literally never bothered anyone that didn't go there to stir the pot first is delusional tribalism too.

Because they cant push lies in the media without wrapping them in truth.
>How to propaganda:
>Dogs are mans best friend
>Immigrants improve the economy for everyone
>Women should be allowed to sleep around more
>Shrimp is tasty
How convenient for them that if you belief this little truth about dogs is a lie because it is used as a wrapper for lies, you will come to agree with them on dogs, and in fact, adopt their culture wholesale when you write off both the truth and the lies together.

This is literally why training is possible. Any trainable animal can be fit in this "speculation". Now untrainable animals are what really a problem here, because they can turn on you even if you ARE familiar... But it's kinda the case with dogs too sometimes...

Post raccs, save pics of raccs, discuss raccs! Here is a critter embiggining for the winter months.
