Why did you post a picture of dead leaves?
>>2057418
was hoping there was an animal in the picture but no luck, sorry :/
>>2057418
Leaf shaped critters have always been pretty amazing to me
gnight /an/
>>2056208
all calves are cute but Jerseys and Guernseys are the cutest, followed by highland and then piedmontese
>>2057518
Wow, that is a really beautiful birb.
>>2057369
That's cute af
>>2057344
What's that?
>>2057682
Its a Sea Slug
>>2057400
ayy lmao
another crown jellyfish
>>2057428
Like living fireworks.
>>2057943
It's sad they get so bland as adults when they're so amazing as juveniles.
>>2057951
Getting old sucks.
>>2057962
Many aquatic animals are like that. Thank god for (some) Surgeons and Angels. They look different as juveniles and adults but both ages look good. My favorite combo is the Emperor Angel. Looks great at any age.
you guys are ok
>>2058254
meme bird. get real taste
>>2056208
best animal.
>>2057402
what kind of cow is that??
it's cute as hell!
>>2058415
what is this?
my bf want's an aquarium, it could be pretty cool to have some of those!
>>2058592
looks like a shorthorn to me, or a cross thereof.
the fur is unusually long though, so it must also be bred to fluffiness.
nice heifer tho
>>2058423
Fuck you.
I happen to be Canadian, so 'murican memes don't apply to me.
>>2058625
And I forgot to change my name back from OP.
>>2057853
More like sea smug
>>2058592
It's a show calf. They tend to be crossbred instead of purebred. They are bred to be rather fluffy do you can groom them for show.
Omg what a great thread
>>2057369
>>2058585
What autist keeps posting the bald eagles over and over again? We get it. You have shit taste. Bald eagles aren't even the best looking eagles.

Birds are underrated.
Here is my wallpaper.
>>2058840
Tbh birds are the only animals that I love unconditionally.
Like dogs and cats and whatnot all have species that I don't really like but I can't say that about birds. They're all just so awesome and I want one as a pet so bad but I don't have the money and idk if I can handle the responsibility and nobody seems supportive of it. It sucks, man.
>>2058849
If you aren't comfortable keeping one as a pet, but you still wish to be around them you should volunteer at a wildlife rehabilitation center or something like that. I work at a raptor center three days every week.
And how exactly is the bald eagle a meme bird? I love them for what they are, not for 'murica. There's a lot more to them than being an American icon.
Tbh I think the whole "American" bald eagle thing is kind of disgusting.
>>2058865
I've been considering that as well, but the only local wildlife rehabilitation center where I live doesn't do much in the way of birds. Besides, as a volunteer I wouldn't be allowed to interact with any of the animals. Still, it's better than nothing I guess. Volunteer orientation is this week too...
>>2058930
Of course you wouldn't work with any of the animals from the get go, but give it time and work hard. Your boss will get to know you, and might be willing to teach you what they know. I've been walked through handling gloved trained owls twice since I started work in November, but now there's more important work that needs to be done.
Slowly but surely, I'm sure you'll get it done.
>>2058774
>>2058780
Why is this little guy has wings? I suspect it may be used for these flights, even wandering. Ability to fly ancestors?
>>2057369
That frogs head shape wow.
>>2058970
I'd tap that.
>>2058970
w-w-what am i feeling..
>>2058656
a gross dirty cat doesn't belong here
tunicate thread post tunicates other animals need not apply capturing planktonic particles is what the cool animals do wooo tunicates
>>2059736
Go to /trash/ you fucking furfag piece of shit.
>>2059746
Deer fucking is a /k/ thing, just saying.
>>2059746
Furries don't belong on /an/.
>>2059735
Tunicates are pretty cool. I like all sessile planktivores though. I love barnicles, Crinoids, tubeworms, etc.
tunicates are the best beautiful animal other beautiful animals are ok but not as good
>>2059787
yeah they're pretty awesome too
>>2059770
>glorified seagull
Like I haven't that one a million times before.
If you're going to be a dick, at least be an original dick.
>>2059809
I don't understand the hate for bald eagles in this thread, they're just animals like any other, there's nothing wrong with someone liking them. Some people think seagulls are beautiful too, why make fun of a fucking bird
I'd say it is /an/'s equivalent of what /v/ does, hating something just because it's popular and being a contrarian for contrarian's sake. But it could be anti-american projecting, which is even more retarded since it's not the animal's fault what unrelated thing humans associate it with.
>>2059820
I don't care about the United States, I just love bald eagles. I don't know why the US is all they're associated with.
>>2058863
I want a dog that looks like that.
>>2059820
There is something wrong with spamming the same stupid animal over and over again because you have a buttcomplex. That guy's fucking annoying.
>>2059828
I can understand that, but don't take it out on the bird.
>>2059828
It isn't just one person.
>>2059830
It's not even an interesting bird. It's a color-clashing, braindead fisheater. Literally one of the most uninteresting birds in the entire world and it's been spammed in this thread more than any other animal.
>>2059833
I'd rather have the birdposter spam hundreds of eagles than whatever it is you're doing.
>>2058970
Reminds me of Princess Diana

Incredible birb
>>2058576
Mah nigga
>>2060018
Me too anon. Me too.
>>2059830
That looks like a needle felt figure it's so adorable.
I think this bird has beautiful metallic coloring. Almost like a peacock but condensed into a smaller creature.
>>2060006
I love how the different colors are almost exclusively on each individual scale. It looks pixelated.
I love the brindle coloring on this heifer.
>>2060209
starlings are my favorite birb
>>2060210
Brindle cattle are gorgeous.
>>2060209
Yeah iridescent animals are really appealing.
>>2060297
Someone fucking milk that poor cow! !!

Cute birb.
This was yesterday, in my driveway, sorry it was on a cell phone.
>>2061094
That's pretty shallow of you. You can only appreciate bald eagles if they're surrounded by American flags.
And I'm not a communist. I hate communists.

Beautiful as they may be, Far Cry has made me unconditionally hate dholes
Grackles.
Everyone thinks they're annoying, noisy pests, but I've always thought they were pretty cool. That iridescent/black plumage, that creepy bright yellow dinosaur eye, and when you watch a group of them foraging and chattering its hard not to imagine they're having conversations.
Until they get in giant flocks and you start feeling like your in Hitchcock's The Birds.
>>2060552
Fuck off, you disgusting Aye-Aye piece of shit. Your kind aren't wanted here.
>>2057344
species?
I always thought that the wild orangutan males were majestic as fuk. I love the way their heads slant between the bulky arms.
>inb4 someone posts a picture of an obese captive orangutan male

Luna moth, very cool
>>2065126
holy fuck, if I ever got a mech suit, I'll have it themed like this bugger.
Just look at it, the helmet, the legs, the wings. It's perfect!

Dang those are some big chicks. I hope the mama can feed them all.
beautiful
>>2059830
That moth looks like a cute little alien in pictures but I doubt I could handle holding a bug so big and fuzzy. I think lunar moths look beautiful too, but I was freaked out when one of the big-ass creatures flew in my living room.
>>2065817

Sweetie pie
>>2065609
but I thought they can fuck you up with that horn thing
>>2065609
the eggs they lay are pretty crazy
>>2066304
They can fuck you up with pretty much any body part they've got.
Love these little fellas, certain time of the year they run across my lawn every morning.
>>2066326
The certain time is when they get released to be hunted.
>>2066333
Yeah whatever they, make cheap whiskey.
Norwegian Forest Cat.

good job reading the thread, tripfogget

yes!
hummingbirds are amazing - their speed, and their miniature beauty.

>>2066924
also, she's pretty, yeah, but as far as beautiful women throughout history (have actually had these threads on /his/ btw), she wouldn't even get a mention. you'll understand when you're older.
I don't really like birds very much, but I have to give it to humming birds and the birds of paradise. extraordinarily beautiful.

>>2066306
They have raptor-esque toe claws that they kick with. The head crest is more for display.
>>2058970
>tfw those antlers means it's a male in drag, and therefor /an/ is mostly gay due to the responses.
The fuck, /an/, seriously, you're supposed to know this shit.
>>2059176
Those don't look like wings, they are probably used for mating displays and scaring away competitors and such.
>>2061173
Damn, you're a lucky son of a bitch.
>>2066918
This picture feels photoshopped, because both of those humans have legs as long as the horse, despite being a fair bit of distance BEHIND the horse, and thus farther away from the camera. Shouldn't that make them appear at least a little bit shorter than they do?
>>2067756
idk seems legit enough on a reverse image search and an image search on that breed
>>2059176
They're wings, might function for flight in earlier instars. May also be about sexual selection, a signal that mates recognise. Could also function as a butterfly mimic that a predator would go for instead of the whole insect.
>>2066409
What the fuck?
Can I get some ID on this incredibly derpy-looking fellow?
>>2058593
Don't try to put one of these guys in an aquarium. He will die. So many uninformed aquarists will just impulse buy a nudi, which will inevitablely waste away and die of starvation in captivity. Happens waaaaay too often. Even if you did know the very, VERY specific diet of the species you wanted to get, it's extraordinarily unlikely that you would be able to provide its food and in enough abundance to sustain the poor slug for any length of time. Let the slugs live and leave them in the wild. Nudibranchs aren't good pets.
>>2067756
Difficult to judge as there's nothing of fixed size in the foreground that would make a good comparison, but to me that horse looks around 15.2-16 hands in comparison to the women, which is in line with the breed's size. Nothing about the proportions suggests Photoshop to me, Akhal-Teke horses are very lean and not remarkably tall, so that looks about right.
>>2068213
It's a Tapir, pictured here at its best angle.
>>2065609
Gentle giant?
Dude. Those things can terminally fuck you up with their feet.
>>2065817
One of my friends once brought a container of big as shit moths to school. Fucking unnerving, man.
