Cats and dogs can get along 5 comments
penguincat · 4 years ago
I've always been fascinated that cheetahs get along so well with dogs while other big cats would not. Dogs are even the dominant animal in this scenario. Maybe because of cheetahs being in a different genus than the other big cats and that somehow changing their behavior/attitude? Adorable seeing them together regardless.
Other big cats like tigers and clouded leopards that can't purr make an affectionate noise called a chuff when saying hello to each other or people they're familiar with.

Super cute photo! On a serious note though tigers and other wild animals are not pets. In areas that do allow ownership for whatever insane reason please don't buy a wild animal. Babies that are sold are almost always either taken from the wild after slaughtering their parents (contributing to the diminishing population) and selling their parts or bred by extremely irresponsible people who don't care about the animals' welfare.
On top of that most people who want a wild animal as a pet only want them because aw how cute or because it looks cool. They don't take into consideration how complicated PROPERLY caring for it will be (space, shelter, nutrition, healthcare, ability to express natural behaviors) or what happens when it gets too big/strong to handle safely. Best case scenario these animals eventually end up in a zoo or sanctuary like mine that can actually take care of them. Worst case scenario they get killed.

Doing something is better than doing nothing. In part it's about changing the mindset especially in the younger generations to a less wasteful one.

This is awesome! I wish my zoo had these on every exhibit so visitors can understand where the animals come from and that zoos don't just take or buy animals from the wild.

Basically me coming home from work as a zookeeper. My fiance: 'How was your day?' Me: 'Good, helped carry a 270 pound tiger on a net to go get some dental work'

I don't care that she's black, it's a remake or a reimagining in my mind not a shot for shot remaster. I would hope that when they do auditions they are basing their choice on who captures the spirit of the character best. Think of it this way, what if you grew up loving and idolizing a certain character and wanted to be like that character but then you become an actor/actress and are turned down for the role because you are the wrong skin color. Is that really fair if you otherwise can capture the characters personality and have a passion that others might not for the role?

Also the previous article I linked said they get their water from humidity so a bottle cap with water may not work well. The article said something about spraying in the enclosure with a spray bottle once in a while. Don't directly spray the mantis though.

The best I can do is help you Google since I don't work with these guys so I don't know much lol. This article I found says yes they won't eat after molt either for probably about 24 hrs while their new shell hardens. Don't put any prey in during this time that could potentially attack them because they are vulnerable. https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&source=web&cd=&ved=2ahUKEwicw8KF0K_jAhXmIjQIHZHeBRsQzPwBegQIARAC&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.wattpad.com%2F62054356-the-praying-mantis-guide-info-book-shedding-how-to&psig=AOvVaw0lMon6CBFS1e7REO3prC7H&ust=1563029305569054

I know this might seem dumb to some people cause it's 'just an insect' but if you're really going to keep him as a pet long term I would recommend reading some about how to properly care for him or her. From what I can see and some brief reading the enclosure seems pretty good except you may want some absorbent substrate not just rock. https://www.keepinginsects.com/praying-mantis/care/

Wtf is going on in colleges? 13 comments

My thoughts exactly. All these comments about weak genes and exterminating people with absolutely zero context. Like maybe the professor assigned it as a fun creative project during a stressful week. What's with all these people?

Don't yell at your servers or get mad at cooks either, like c'mon guys we're just trying to do our jobs. Line cooks end up cooking for like 40 people at a time on busy nights, and lots of kitchens don't have air conditioning so in summers it's 90-100 degrees back there; so y'all fuckers chill when your food takes 30 mins, we're trying.

It's only been a few days though, and it is a pretty big deal for the supreme court to make it legal across the country for good now. Just give them a month to celebrate guys, chill it'll be gone next month same as all the other trends.
