Honest to god I can’t understand anything any of them say.

[unorthodoxchronicles]

It’s two gay guys using hockey terms to catcall the two presumably straight hockey players (riley and jonesy) who then counter by being comfortable enough to accept the compliments. The conversation then continues along to describe different words and terms for a variety of queer folk as if said words were also hockey players. So when they say a word got cut it’s merely a euphanism for people agreeing not to use that term. The whole scene is two (presumably straight) men being educated gently on the subject by two gay men and listening rather than bickering.

this dialogue is like something out of a greek drama it’s both downright melodic and utterly incomprehensible

Cinematography by: Haris Zambarloukos Mamma Mia! (2008) Directed by Phyllida Lloyd Aspect Ratio: 2.39 : 1

“I am definitely Greek. I only moved here [in the UK] when I was 20 so I was born and raised a Greek Cypriot. And I spend all my free time back home. So to do something like that, that also showed off Greece in that respect, was just a delightful film to make. And that was a departure for me. It was my first studio film, and it was also definitely my first proper commercial film and successful film, but it was a departure from darker subject matter and was never the kind of films I watched. After “Mamma Mia!”, I learned to enjoy and embrace it. So there were a lot of things for me from “Mamma Mia!”, my first studio picture, shot in Greece at home, and something that was more playful and musical and entertaining.” — Haris Zambarloukos

These are great!

It amuses me when people think science is always super formal and “serious”. Field work is at least 50% shenanigans.

1. Those tigers look thin.

2. Zoos are fucking stupid.

3. Capturing wild animals and using them for human entertainment is a super shitty thing to do.

4. This is not cool.

[just-a-paperdollthatsall-deacti]

This is abuse and horrible.  Zoos are prisons.

[admiralpotatoman-deactivated201]

Some zoos only take old animals to where they are given an easy life. Their maintenance is funded by people coming into the zoo.

[tallestprincess]

Those tigers are not thin.

“Zoos are fucking stupid” wow such science you sold me

They weren’t captured for this purpose, they probably weren’t captured at all, it’s called rescuing. 

This is cool.

This is not abuse, it’s actually exercise if you think about it.

Zoos are not prisons. Zoos allow us to rescue animals, research them, and protect them from hunters and the dangers that we, as humans, impose on them.

I’m so done with all the shit about zoos on my fucking dash. 

Zoos literally save animals every day so why don’t you do your freaking research.

[thomassawyerismyname]

This comment is perfect^

[skullprincess]

Animals come to zoos as a result of 

being born captive

getting injured in the wild and rescued to live a healthy life in captivity

being rescued from black market dealers, private collectors, or the like who decide that they can no longer care for the animals or who had been illegally keeping the animals

being in a breeding program to increase their numbers because the animal is endangered in the wild

If you knew anything about tigers at all, you’d know that they are endangered in the wild due to poaching and hunting. It is of utmost importance that their numbers increase, or they will go extinct within the next fifty years. I don’t know what zoo this is so I don’t know their reputation, but the tigers look healthy, and this tug-of-war is good for them because some animals get stressed in zoos when they are bored. This isn’t solely to entertain zoo guests, it is to give the tigers something fun to do.

Zoos do not snatch animals from the wild without a good reason. If you want to protest animal captivity, go to SeaWorld and protest the orcas being kept there, they are far too large to belong in such cramped spaces and they are solely kept for entertainment.

Thank you and good day.

ALSO ITS NOT LIKE THEY’RE FORCING THE TIGERS TO GRAB THE ROPE, THE TIGER WANTS TO PLAY

[thebearqueen]

Tigers play just like domestic cats play with each other, this is for the educational benefit of the visitors and the enrichment benefit of the tigers. Also word to the comment above. Tigers are endangered to the point that they cannot repopulate themselves in the wild, they need the help of captive institutions like zoos, where they live carefree lives free of stress and can breed and birth without fear that other predators and mating competitors will come along and eat their cubs. Furthermore, these tigers are NOT thin. In fact, one of the ones in the large group looks borderline obese. People who know nothing about animals need to stop talking about animals.

[jonathanlivesherestill]

Boosting the shit out of this because I’m so damn tired of whiney morons (who probably never get outside) bitching about animal’s rights when they really have no fucking clue.

DO YOUR GODDAMN HOMEWORK.

ALL OF EVERYTHING IN THIS COMMENTARY

[hands-of-blue]

@why-animals-do-the-thing I know you went to that zoos conference, is this good enrichment and all ok for the tigers? I’m inclined to agree with the later commentary that it is, but…?

[why-animals-do-the-thing]

I don’t know what facility this is so I don’t know the details, but from what I can tell this is a pretty good setup and it’s good enrichment for the tigers. 

Notice the rope is fed through heavy metal piping with multiple bends, so there’s no way a tiger can tug and somebody’s hand could end up near it’s mouth. There’s a secondary barrier at the base of the fences to keep guests from getting too close, or they’re held back with a rope - it’s good for this set-up, but only if the area they’re in isn’t public access during the rest of the day, because otherwise it’s not a good guest-stupidity-preventer. 

This is almost absolutely a trained behavior, because cats don’t have a tug reflex like dogs do. It’s a pretty cool one to get them to engage it - it’s a great way to give people a ‘personal experience’ (which is important to get them to care about conservation) that doesn’t involve actually letting them touch a tiger. It shows how strong the cats are, too, and hopefully instills a little bit of respect in the guests participating and watching. 

Also, these tigers are good weights (the white is maybe a bit overweight although it’s hard to tell at the angle). Tigers are incredibly slender cats when at a good body condition - when I first was able to be around them, I was amazed that they’re very long but really narrow animals. Cats as a taxa really aren’t meant to carry around body fat at all.

[petitetimidgay-deactivated20240]
