You guys ever just look at animals and go "man they're fucking weird?"I do that with elephants a lot.>fuckhuge>big floppy ears>20ft nose they can also use to grab shit>giant tusks too because being fuckhuge wasnt enough of a defense mechanism>bodies look like duffel bags half full of sandWhat are some animals that make you guys say wtf?
Agree on elephants. Motherfuckers used these things as siege weaponry. Crazy to think about.
>>5164656I also forgot to mention they can apparently lift ~700lbs with their trunk alone, meaning they could easily yank a human up and thrash em around. Imagine how fucking unstoppable these things were in a gunless world.
>>5164657I can lift that
>>5164661That's nothing, I lifted your mom last night
>>5164657Did you forget we wiped out the mastodons with pointy sticks?
What can an elephant actually do though? If you hug its hind legs it can't reach you with its truck, and its too sluggish to get away while you repeatedly pommel it from behind. If you stand to the side of its hind legs then it won't even be able to hit you with a back kick. If it raises its leg to perform a stomp then all you have to do is back off until it finishes its slam, then move back in to continue punching.
These motherfuckers
>>5164778>maybe we should just adapt to eating grass instead>no fuck that long necksevolution is so goofy sometimes
>>5164652Every time Iām hungover I get overwhelmed with this feeling about nearly every animal.Dog legs are the weirdest common ones, look at that shit like what
>>5164652Great apes.
>>5164928Is this why we hunted gorillas and orangutans to near-extinction? Because we're weirded out by them?
>>5164656People still use them as transport and beasts of burden, Iād probably trust an elephant to move a plow or a harvester more than a cow desu
>>5164928Wasn't there an Ai-powered image detector that was mistaking Black people for great apes?
>>5164704Probably drop its weight ontop of you and fucking kill you by accident
>>5165284When iPhones first started automatically making albums based on what it thought was in your images, they'd routinely put photos containing black people into albums labelled "Gorillas".IIRC, they ended up removing the category of Gorillas instead of actually fixing this.
