I was wondering where the seed was going overnight but I thought it was some fat chud coon so I started bringing it in after dark, but I guess the squirrel learned the new pattern and came out before I could take it, so I just left it...

I was smoking in the yard, watching a squirrel. They see cars from pretty far away, and it ran up the tree pre-emptively when it sensed a tractor-trailer coming. Panicked and ran up there half a minute before the truck passed and I didn't see it come down. So when I finished my smoke, I walked onto the porch so I was eye level with the trees lowest branches, and the squirrel was chilling up in there like your pic.

Animal protection is also extremely weak. People like to rag on places like China but really everywhere there's very little deterrent because they are just animals and simply not assigned high enough value.

nope, just two, located closer to the top of their heads.
what you're seeing there are labial pits, heat sensors so that they can detect prey in the dark.

Hi, I found this spider in my bathtub today. I'm wondering if it's only the hull after skinning or if it's the whole dead spider. can some arachnoanon help me?
>>
>>5152625
the thin skin of the abdomen collapses when a spider molts. it has a round abdomen, it is a dead spider not a molt
>>
>>5152630
thx anon. to me it's good news as this type of spider can bite humans and penetrate the skin. it's said to sting like a wasp.
I saw it on several occasions in my kitchen and my bathroom, as it's a hunting spider that wanders around. it did me no harm but the fear of sticking my hand into some laundry or towel and get bitten was living in me.
>>
>>5152631
Looks like a wolf spider, and the chance of them biting you is about the same as a jumping spider. Essentially harmless and not ones to randomly bite in aggression. You'd have to really bother one a lot to get them to react.

Ty! Yours is very cute as well. I like the asymmetrical patterning. It's unique.

Apparently snowshoes are quite a rare breed, so I was kind of shocked a random ass super friendly kitten just appeared one day.
She was 5lbs when I found her and was intact, so she must have either been a stray or someone was keeping her to breed kittens with.
Is yours super friendly towards strangers? For the holidays I have the extended family over and there will be like 15 people in the same room and she's just in her usual spot on top of the recliner like nothing has changed.

No she's kinda shy but her mother who is a tabby kinda hates strangers so she might have learned it from her. She is way more social than her mom tabby

Hello /an/,

You are now reminded that Bumblebee season has officially begun in the northern hemisphere. Bumblebees and Solitary Bees are in massive crisis so this thread will be to discuss ways to help them, ask questions about how to plant for them, and general bombus chat.

Note that Mellifera (‘honey bees’) are NOT in crisis, are actually a major culprit in the decline of Bumblebees and Solitary Bees, and aren’t even native to most of the northern hemisphere anyway - so they are banned from this thread. Wasps are fine (but still shit).
