>apex predator What the fuck? Are other animals even trying?
>>4782263yea I ain't no mindless runner. I can tell you guys have never hunted. not that I've hunted the yummy big boys, since we ate them all.
>>4780389Imagine how horrifying life would be if we weren't the apex predator, and had to continually live in fear of some other animal brutally eating us alive.
>>4782263Yeah, and we teamed up with them to take over the entire fucking planet. Fuck, we still used them regularly up until 80 or so years ago.
>>4788739Life as an insect. It's basically living in a horror film universe. Tons of giant, flying monsters that try to eat you. Literal plantlife tries to eat you. Fungi try to eat you. Other insects try to eat you. Some do it from the inside, while reprogramming your muscles to defend them. You remain conscious, but you no longer have control over your own body, you can only helplessly observe as the bodysnatcher growing inside you uses your body as defence.
>>4780421what a funny joke anon did you come up with it yourself
good luck will come to you.
>>4786945Why though?
>>4786945Prehensile lips is a new one…
>>4786943>I wouldn't worry about it.

My dog doesn't like ballsI bought a chuckit atlatl launcher thing and the ignoring was so brutal I just left it at the dog park
>>4788834Maybe someone else will enjoy it.
When there are a lot of bans in my area doesn't it mean there are other 4chan users? If so it might be time to stop posting my dogs.
Is 10,000 sq ft too small for a dog?
>>4788834That's okay. My friend's GP don't like balls either. They'll run over to sniff it, but I've never seen them with a stick or ball in their mouth. It may be possible to train fetch, but it would take some work. They're slow learners.

>>4788880If we're going to go cheap, does thalidomide work on dogs?
>>4788893Thalidomide does induce deformations in animals, but with the glaring lacuna that the stumpy appendages are not quite serpentine (disregarding that thalidomide would probably spike miscarriages)
>>4788887yeah, mr toad has legacy value but they have warped flesh and bone far beyond him. They have surpassed a 0.98 coefficient of inbreeding, we will watch them reach 1.0 then watch in horror what happens as they exceed it. the laws of mathematics and nature itself will be warped just like the bodies of the toads, a great gate will open and eldritch abominations will surge forth to SMASH and SLAM this world.The toadline is the final chapter of Kali Yuga. It was foretold in the Vedas.
anyone else get the feeling the og toadline kennel has slowed down or even closed? they don't update their website nor their youtube channel

>>4788807>The fact the sapient species ended up being matriarchal WITHOUT it being some kind of moral wonderland already elevates it over a ridiculous amount of similar projectsIn general their sex and gender roles clearly have nothing at all to do with human sex or gender beyond the fact that one has sperm cells and one has egg cells. Their sexes may as well be called A and B. Yet people can't help but seethe anyways.
>>4788913It's honestly hilarious, half the video is about anthropocentric bias and how to be carefully about applying it to entirely alien species with a completely different life history And despite that people still try to 1 for 1 paste very human concepts onto these creaturescreatures that, mind you, would have a very visceral disgust reaction at the core idea of a typical human family

If you talk to some people in Austria or Italy they unironically want the wolf to go extinct.What? 20 wolves? In my country??????? I'd rather want humans to disappear.

Any of you guys had success with doing plants on a goldfish tank?I just started putting some on mine a month ago with some simple java fern and buce tied and glued to the hardscape and the fucker managed to rip everything apartNow i get why a lot of people just do them non-planted
My 1.5 liter bottle diy co2 is popping off. I don't have a frame of reference tho (with real co2 system). Will it be enough to supercharge my plantus? 120 liter tank and I placed the co2 diffuser in front of the filter out.
>>4788868Some CO2 will always be better than none, it's virtually always the limiting factor for aquatic plant growth. With DIY CO2 I would pay attention to having an even bubble count, and set up a second bottle just as you notice a drop in output. Consistency is key, as plants will have to adapt to the increased CO2 before they can maximally utilise it. You don't want the plants constantly chasing changing parameters, that's a good way to generate BBA, staghorn or outright melting your plants. Also, since CO2 also makes plants better at utilising light, you can keep the light subdued for at least 6 weeks while they adapt, before trying to ramp the lights up, which again should be a gradual process. If your livestock choices allow it, a circulation pump or two can really help distribute the CO2 to every corner of the tank, which will help avoid algae caused by plant stress if you do go for high light.
>>4788924Thanks for the info. I only have plants and I have lots of extra pumps, I put an extra in there.
Post birds, appreciate birds
the chickadees keep kicking up the seed i put out. they make a giant mess, like a toddler eating cheerios in the back seat of a soccer mom van. maybe they can't distinguish seeds too well in a pile, so they have to spread it out. they're cute, but i don't know what's their problem.
>>4788070Is it some cheap garbage mix? They are probably digging for just the good ones they want to eat.
Female bluebird seems all aloneShe's sitting in the house, came out to eat sunflower hearts this morning but that's it. She made a sad little call at the feeder then flew away. No male in sight, no male singing anywhere. What the fuck.I want to like go poke some mealworms through the entry hole and see if she takes them but she'll probably just get scared.
>>4788137go keep her company

Bald Eagles are ugly and dumb.I hate that this silly ass bird is the symbol of my country. There are tons of other birds out there much more cool than a bald eagle. Show any owl and it's much more majestic than the stupid bald eagle, who isnt even bald like that one vulture that is literally bald so it can get inside carcass asses easier. Yay the symbol of our country is an unsightly rodent eater that bullies away other birds. I mean its accurate, but I still hate it.
>>4788745Better than the alternative we had.Look at this dumb motherfucker.
>>4788768It literally has something called a "snood" LMFAO
>>4788763thats based as fuck thothe coolness of a raptor is determined by how many mammals it kills
>>4788766He also considered the timber rattlesnake, which would’ve been cool as well.But we all know it should’ve been the bison.
Realistically most ferals won't be able to get adopted out, especially as adults. Many of them are aggresive and don't like people. The best way to help them would be to build tiny houses in which they'd have beds, scratch posts, toys, etc and be sheltered from the elements. Then volunteers will be tasked to clean the homes periodically as well as feed them, vets will examine them as needed but otherwise they'll live independently in a colony with other ferals.
>>4787281Ottawa, Canada, used to have a giant cat house that was shaped like the Parliament, it got retired during the Harper era as it was considered inhumane to keep cats outside, but they could have installed heating.

Imagine being so cucked by reptiles you shill for birds over mammals>Yasss massa gimme that big lizard cock we mammalcels have no right to kill our lordsUnironically kill yourselves fags.
>>4787288Right? I would've drown them in a river right away.Fuck if I'm ever wasting gas to kill cats.
>>4788852Yes, they were also unique to one island.They also weren't invasive, and a lot of other things. That's not the crux of the argument. We can bring whipe out animals without trying.How is spaying and neutering them more effective than killing them?It's not, if we trapped and killed strays as a society. They would be gone in a number of years. With a huge coyote population and massive amount of other predators. House cats won't root outside of urban environments in which they completely rely.Killing the invasive species is the most effective route.
