>No nut November
>>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.

>>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.
"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
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
Post animal memesI made pic related after I saw my retarded cat enter the laundry room then scare himself because of it
>>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.

>>5073345You need to check his penis. If it's circumcised, there is 100% chance he has rabbis.
>>5073345you should have gotten the vaxx after you got bit you fucking retard. Rabies and Tetanus are not like CovidOnce you start developing symptoms it's too late
>>5073439kek
>>5073345If you dick goes numb, then you know you have been rabbied
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.
