My dog and I walk to the park everyday and lots of crows hang out there. I wanna make friends with them. How do I accomplish this?

I'm kinda interested in that too.
Did you try feeding them bread crumbs or seeds?
All you have to do is feed them, that's it

Australian government planning to cull thousands of wild/feral horses for environmental reasons.
http://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-05-01/plans-to-drastically-reduce-snowy-mountains-brumby-population/7373634
This is causing quite a bit of a stir among many people I know and on social media.
Thoughts?
i think its wrong
those horses should be distributed to caring owners
australia is fucked anyway, it's stupid to murder thousands of innocent animals all in the name of what amounts to pissing on the Dresden firestorm

>those horses should be distributed to caring owners
Nobody fucking wants them, otherwise that would be a great idea.
I'm all for the cull, it sucks but they're fucking up everything. They shouldnt even cull them, just try to entirely be rid of them.

>I'm all for the cull, it sucks but they're fucking up everything
But what about us, the human population, which is clearly the biggest detriment off all? Nice hypocrisy.

dude try taking it to the vet?
thats honestly all i can say. it might have internal issues now or something.
>>2111761
Suck it up and take it to a vet. You should consider anger control lessons and/or a therapist for yourself if you get that out of control, that's not normal or okay.

How much is the vet gonna cost me?

My vet is clueless and I don't know what to do. This is my one-year-old English lab, Mojo. He loves people, other dogs, and his orange football. He is my best friend. Four days ago, I applied Petarmor Plus flea and tick treatment for the first time ever. Since yesterday, he's had very little energy and little enthusiasm for food and water (though he still eats and drinks). Just this morning, he started having these seizure or tremor-like episodes lasting between 10 seconds and a minute each. He is alert and...

>in b4 vet
Just like the doctors we see, they are often wrong or clueless. So you go see another one.

Another vet asap. Idk how you haven't taken him elsewhere. This is highly distressing, I don't blame you for leaving work. OP I wish you the best of luck.
What are the pros and cons of owning an exotic animals
Depends on the animal, but most are destructive, aggressive, skittish, and/or not being potty trainable
That is way too vague to answer. Plenty of exotics are totally fine pets. A lot of them are awful except for anyone with a ton of money who is very dedicated.
What species?
>>2114854
I mean, what you said is vague, but in general:
Pros:
>animal looks cute or badass
>gain internet popularity if you post videos of them
>people think it's cool
Cons:
>aren't domesticated
>aren't as friendly or sociable as you would probably like
>usually high maintenance
>cost...

Alright /an/
I'm adopting an 8 week old blue heeler puppy soon. It'll be the first dog that I've ever owned myself (family had multiple growing up) and I need the basics on how to train a dog on how not to be a wild shit factory.
Pic related, the doggo

>the doggo
That's clearly a pupper, sir.
Are you sure that's a blue heeler? It doesn't look like one at all
Probably should've googled it instead of coming here to be berated
I would like to know if this specimen is a loxosceles laeta. Please tell me.

No dude that's actually a spider
cmon guys no rhino lovers here?
I've never seen a rhino, I don't think I can very well contribute to the thread
I went on a behind the scenes tour with a zoo once - I'm convinced that rhinos are just big happy dogs.
The zookeeper and I were standing on one side of a gate when she called out the rhino's name super loudly (the rhino was probably like 40 feet away) and slapped her keychain against the gate to grab his attention. Immediately, the sweet thing just stopped eating, waddled over to where we were, and leaned against the gate so he could be pet.
We didn't have any food on us or anything, rhinos apparently LOVE tactile touch and tactile enrichment -...
