big fan of when animals creche. Love to see so many fucking babies in one place

[aplpaca]

So a creche in ecology is a group of animals that take care of their offspring as a group. Grouping together like this can help with protection against predators, finding food, enduring the weather, and gives the parents time to "rest", as sometimes the parents will alternate who's being the primary watchers while others get to hunt by themselves for a bit, like a baby animal daycare.

But ye lions do this once cubs each a certain age. A decent amount of birds do it (for example: flamingos and a lot of penguin, duck, and goose species). Gharials (a type of South Asian crocodilian) form creches with hundreds of babies from multiple nests (they lay under 100 eggs each and sometimes as few as 20). Feral hogs tend to form groups of mothers and young like this, and I saw 3 sows and like 15+ tiny babies the other day and they were so cute

But ye that's how you get pictures like these

Rattlesnakes will creche!! In some species mature adult females will hang out together (they're friends!) in shared dens and even birth their clutches together. Then one will babysit while the others go get food. Adult females have been seeing caring for their young like shooing young back into the den when a predator approaches. You can watch LIVE rattlesnake den mothers and all their babies on Project Rattlecam!!!!

everyone i've talked to about this has been completely unaware so: if you didn't know already, there's going to be a solar eclipse, with totality or coverage of 90% or more in some places, over a lot of europe, on august 12th 2026. in the uk it will start just after 6pm, and the maximum will be at 7:13pm.

here is a map of the path of the eclipse (from timeanddate)

get eclipse glasses if you want to look at it. it is not safe to look at through sunglasses. ok informative post over o7

#i wonder why surrogacy would be illegal though?

#in my mind it's such a normal thing. i can't really picture WHY people would be against it tbh.

I don't want to get into it but feel free to read the "Ethical issues" section in the Wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surrogacy

[robot-roadtrip-rants]

I feel like there is some kind of German political shenanigans going on behind this meme, I beg you to spill the tea

[translatingpoststogerman]

So, during the pandemic in 2020, Jens Spahn (CDU politician and minister of health at the time) bought 5.8 billion masks for 5.9 billion Euros, wasting taxpayer money in a deal that was and is still widely critized as corrupt, and to this day he didn't face any political consequences for it.

Surrogacy is illegal in Germany, his party is against legalizing it, and he himself spoke out against it just a few years ago. Yet, he just made it public that he and his husband became fathers via a surrogate mother in the USA. This caused a huge scandal in his party, and he now had to abdicate from being his party's parliamentary leader in the Bundestag.

Hence, his party was basically saying they can excuse corruption but draw the line at using a surrogate mother to have a child.

[fugsbunny]

also there is a german law that states that the woman who birth the child is the child's mother (§ 1591 BGB Mutterschaft "Mutter eines Kindes ist die Frau, die es geboren hat.")

meaning the surrogate would be the legal mother of the child
