Why do you like your dog pulling you along as you walk anon?
>>2154196
But my dog doesn't pull.
>his dog pulls
Looks like someone has been shit at training.
>implying my dog pulls
Nah man, but I do see a lot of this happening. I also see dogs on retractable leashes that are 7 or more feet away from their owners.
The two MOST POWERFUL animals to EVER EXIST
Adult Silverback Gorilla VS Tyrannosaurus Rex!
T. Rex is HUNGRY, Gorilla is PISSED
Who wins, /an/?
>>2154164
Wipe this meme from the face of the earth
SEVEN TRILLION-BILLION LIONS
VS
ONE HUNDRED BILLION TRILLION BROCK LESNARS
Of course the gorilla.
What exactly am I looking at here? This is thousands of small millipedes that have drowned? Did someone dump these or is this natural?
Bump?
take them to the vet
>>2154093
Probably gnat larvae or something similar. Check out the water striders having a snack.
Hey /an/. I'm really frustrated right now so I thought I'd try and get some of this off my chest and make a thread for those with similar stories.
My family's 16 year old cat is dying. They left him alone without a sitter for a week then came back on Sunday and noticed he hadn't eaten at all. Now its Tuesday, he's completely collapsed and will probably die in a few hours but they still refuse to take him to the vet to end his suffering. I've offered to pay for the euthanasia as soon as I found out but they refused. I live hundreds of miles...

Your cat definitely won't.
Same with me, my mother wouldn't let me buy crickets for my fish once making it starve (it was a killifish). My dad was working at construction longer than usual and didn't come home until 3 hours after he died. My dad was a chill guy and would take me out to buy the crickets.
Also, i noticed in all these stories it almost always is the mother's or sibling's fault.
It's time for an animal reaction image thread. Gifs/webms are welcome as well.

hi, first time on this board.
I have a question for you guys. Is this a duck or a goose? thank you
>>2156080
goose
>>2156081
how can you be certain? could you provide more info on this?
>>2156082
Google goose.
lets be honest, where these people in any real
danger at all?
>>2156016
Not really. No more than your average stray dog anyway. Even large lizards like monitors are much more likely to run away from you than try to fight.

No. It's a giant fat iguana, not an alligator, at worse you'll just get an infected bite.
Can anyone tell me what this tree is? It has some type of fruit growing on it. I was thinking olive tree but I dont know for sure.
>>2155999
looks like a peach/nectarine or apricot tree with lil peaches on it to me. the fruits fuzzy or smooth?
>>2156003
They arent fuzzy at all just smooth
Here is a pic of just the fruit
My cat keeps following me and bothering me, it is really annoying and she keeps rubbing her face on my leg, as if she is attached to me. I play with her and feed her, but she keeps on following me and annoying me a lot. she wont leave me alone. She does not attack me, she just likes my comfort. How can I get her away from me? keep in mind, she is not a kitten.
>cat is affectionate
>this is somehow a problem
>Your cat loves you endlessly
>This is annoying
You don't deserve her desu
Why did you get a cat if you're annoyed by them being affectionate and attached to you? What did you expect?
Anyways, to solve your problem, get over it
Let's have thread to talk about and discover animal themed video games, may they be simulation, management, virtual pet games etc...
Pic related, SimPark was one of the first video game i ever had. You had to manage your own natural park, buy animals, place the right kind of plants to prevent them to starve, and buy entertainment structures for the visitors. You also had a minigame to discover new species, closely inspired by basic scientific methods.
I can also think about spore, zoo tycoon, sims pet expansion, nintendogs... any other ideas?
zoo tycoon complete collection was my favorite
I'd just fuck around in the kids park, was never that creative with exhibit designs though lol
Tyto Ecology looks great from what I've seen.
Odell Down Under is a game where you play as a fish of your choice, avoiding predators and eating smaller fish that match your fish's diet.
Loved playing this as a kid, taught me the names of so many fish.
You can get it for Windows and Mac

How can I cut down on costs for taking care of a rabbit?
My girlfriend has a Holland lop and is having trouble taking care of it financially. I usually so most of the caretaking (which I don't mind at all because I love the thing) but I can't really help.
You shouldn't own it if you can't support it financially
Collect your own plant matter
Feed it less

What kind of cage is it being housed in? If you can, cheapest thing to do is get an Expen and place it somewhere on hard floors, and let it live in the expen. Put down newspaper to absorb piss and put fleeces/blankets on top, shake the fleeces out every so often and wash them as needed. The newspaper should be changed at least every third day. If you can't use an Expen, look into C&C cages. Very inexpensive and since it's diy very customizable. Do the same shit with the bedding; use newspaper and linens...

My cockatiel Vasko just died at the age of 16
Funny how it happens so fast.
Only a week ago he was just "Old man Vasko". I expected him to live to at least 20.
Yesterday he was at the bottom of his cage all day, and was falling asleep constantly. I checked what could be the cause and said I would take him to the vet in a couple of days.
Today he was vomiting after drinking water, his girlfriend, a corella even went to comfort him at that point.
I come home from the gym and he's dead. Happened all very fast. Had him basically all my life,...

Sad to hear that man. RIP Vasko.
RiP Vasko, you beutiful bastard.
the second you saw him sitting at the bottom of the cage he should have gone to an emergency vet, there is no "i'll wait" with birds

this is my youngest cat, her bitchiness level is 7/10
until she is in the mood for affection, then she is nice.
this one is "noble" which translate into suspicious of everyone, would rather be by herself, and is always beating up the other cats. she is not necessarily mean, just stone cold serious.
this one is a cool cat, he acts like a person. he is always down to chill, and loves being with me. he bites my girlfriends thicc legs when she walks out of the shower with just a towel on cause he appreciates hi test. he is my favorite.
I think they're nice cats, but maybe you should post in the cat general thread.
would you put it out of its misery?
it could be a beneficial mutation. Let natural selection take its course.
