Seeing a Rhino with its horn complete and intact is rare.
>>5017882The webm that launched a thousand Chinese safaris
>>5017885Yeah post about and advertise the animal fucking retard. I hope a zoo gets it before the chinese.
>>5017885OK the smug bot post settles it, this is definitely actually horrible for the rhino. Like it's some kind of mutation, or its horn is long because it's never been used e.g. it's totally aloneeven odds it's already in some kind of reserve or zoo too and the bit about it being untouched is also bull
>>5018279It’s literally just a rhino with a horn that’s longer than usual. It’s not particularly rare, good or bad for the animal

I notice a decrease in june bug population and a prolonged season? is there something going on with them. can i do something to increase their pop, do i plant them, water them?
>>5018532You must not walk at night. I've come home from many runs covered in them and woken with their dead bodies stuck to me several times even with my windows shut. I think they're doing alright here. If your region had a drought or wildfire it might have reduced the amount of grass their larva like to feed on.
>>5018537grass ohh that explains some of it, ya socal beach by the nuclear plant. minimal fly insects the closer to residential
do birds come back later to grab feathers they dropped??
>>5015266There are also fishers like shrimp trawlers, but they typically aren't as prominent as most states don't have coastlines.
>>5014964 (OP)It isn't about environmental protection at all its about Govt control over everything including your interests.
>>5015262They do it to discourage people from going out to the wild to grab some animals because they think its cool, lying that they saved that animal from some bad situation. If you see a wild animal needing rescue call the rescue services, dont do it yourself
>>5016491No, that's simply what they claim. These shitheads raid legitimate animal rescues, endangered species breeders, etc. all the time and kill all their animals.
I get feathers left in my bird feeders all the time I just throw them in the trash
Black-banded snake Editionprevious: >>4980400This thread is dedicated to all animals of the Reptilia and Amphibia classes. Topics include, but are not limited to: geckos, snakes of all kinds, frogs, salamanders, newts, turtles, tortoises, and much more. Before asking a question, do a search on the internet to see if it has been answeredClassifieds for finding breeders and products:>morphmarket.com>kingsnake.com>faunaclassifieds.com>caudata.orgMost forums will have a "for sale" section on them, so look for that, especially if you have a specific herp you want. Craigslist can also be a good source for cheap aquariums, and make sure to check for any reptile expos that occur in your area.When asking a question, make sure to include these details:>Type and size of animal>Enclosure dimensionsComment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>5018449If you speak to anyone who actually cares about their work in the herp pet trade they will tell you that enclosure size importance is exaggerated nowadays. For the vast majority of them a 3ft is plenty room (excluding large monitors or boas) for terrestials and a 3ft by 6ft for arboreals. Now, I want to make it clear that I am not saying this is the reason why the minimums are so large nowadays but larger minimums benefit two groups ulteriorly:>Enclosure brands>Anti-herp ownership organisationsThe larger the minimum the larger the intial cost for enclosure investment. It also makes you invest more into stuff like substrate, bulbs and heat control systems, moisture regulators, UV lights ect ect. If you're an enclosure brand who has it's hands in these other products it is a net good across the board commercially. Anti-herp groups also benefit as it reduces the window for owners who can get a herp. They have done similar shit in past like making it illegal to keep certain feeders in countries they have lobbied for or to make live feedintg classed as animal abuse to have a knock-on effect of making herp ownership impossible. If you make it so you can't own a fucking rankin ethically without a 6ft enclosure that is going to make a lot of would be owners think twice about getting one and the fact that minimums are argued less from a material point of view of what would benefit the animal and more from "what is ethical" online is a red flag to me. If it meets the material demands of the animal it is inherently ethical, if it goes beyond the material demands it provides nothing. Again, I am not saying that is why minimums are bigger nowadays, but it is important to consider when you hear these sort of things with minimum measurements.
>>5018449A lot of it is really arbitrary, people nowadays just mindlessly parrot reptifiles (which tbf isn't a bad source) and call it a day, and a lot of times they don't even keep the animal they're scolding people about. I keep my crestie in a 18 x 24 and it's always seemed like a decent size for him to move around in and I have a ton of branches and cork hides, but apparently the new standard is 18 x 36 based on .... something. People who are extremely anal about enclosure sizes aren't that big of a deal imo, yeah it's definitely annoying being called an animal abuser because you don't have an 8 x 4 for a hognose snake, but they're still a minority compared to the amount of keepers who have no idea what they're doing. It's a good thing that beardies aren't being kept in a 40 gallon or BPs in a 30 gallon that much (or at least as much) nowadays.
I think a lot of people feel guilty about keeping wild animals as pets and virtue signal to cope.

>>5018449If you have the capability to go above the minimum but don’t then you shouldn’t own the animal
Post bovids (cows, goats and sheep, bison etc)Pet bovidsLove bovidsIf I were to get some land (looking PA, WV or thereabouts) any ranchers on here have tips on starting a small dairy operation? A few cows at most until I'm able or willing to scale up. Are there amy decent grants to help set stuff up or would I need to foot the whole bill?
Even the cows are sad at the lack of posts

>>5018054I put the litter box inside of a wide cardboard lid, and that is on one of those big rubber mats with all the little rubber finger-things. But yeah, you're going to get litter tracking. Try using less litter in the tray as well. As long as you're cleaning it daily you don't need much more than an inch or so of clean litter. Less litter in the box, less to get kicked out. I know with my cat, he likes to bury his turds 6 ft under, if there's too much litter in his box he'll just shovel it out to make his field latrine.
>>5018384I forget the brand or "flavor" but I remember splurging for the fancy-shit wet food for him as a treat, and when I opened up the can I was a little pissed off because it looked and smelled better than the can of dinty moore I was going to have for dinner. Another just had big chunks of mackerel in it. Kind of resent whenever my cat ends up eating better than I do.
>>5019243>Kind of resent whenever my cat ends up eating better than I do.cope. fur babies end up with all the benefits and none of the obligations of human slaves. know your place and keep toiling for our food pissant.
How long can I leave wet food on a dish before it'll get my cat sick? How long after putting it out should I toss it?

What are some animals that sound cooler than they are
>>5018217Cats
Eagled and hawks. From a side profile they look badass. Head on they look very dopey and silly and their calls sound terrible.

What's an animal that if it went extinct you wouldn't care?
>>5017990Then take scorpions off there or put bees on there. They only really kill people who are allergic and occasionally babies. It's the same niche as a bee sting got stung like 8 times in the same day not even a fever.
>>5017990>you'll have to experience the dread that you're not gonna be alive for much longer as the toxins make their way through your nervous systemThat sounds really nice, to be honest. Gives me time to reflect on my life make peace with it. With instant death it's over before I know it and it will leave lingering regrets. That's how ghosts are formed.
Mosquitos can fuck off right back to the tenth level of Hell were they belong. I don't care if it means bats would starve. Bats can find something else to eat. Mosquitos serve no useful purpose.
