Forgot I made these quick refs once!! It’s not that you should feel obligated to portray every part of an animal correctly, but in some cases these are very unique, interesting features that very few artists are ever utilizing creatively!

Yes! Wasps are nice bugs, too!

Why is it that when charismatic megafauna cause harm or death to humans its brushed off as an accident, something the animal had no control over? "The shark just mistook him for food, the bear was just protecting her cubs." Yet, when a smaller, less adored creature causes harm to humans, say, a wasp, it then becomes about the moral character of a creature that has no concept of morality to begin with? It's almost never "the wasps were just defending their nest", it's "I did nothing and the wasps stung me!! Wasps are evil!!"

Funny, how that works, really

‘Rat Park’ -Stuart McMillen

You’ll never think about drug addiction the same way again after reading this comic.

What I found absolutely impressive and stunning about this comic is the way the artist explained the identification and elimination of the confounding factors in the Rat Park study. This is one of the hardest parts of experiments to explain to the public, and I think it was just brilliantly done.

I honestly don't understand the big moral panic around dissections???

fumblebeefae

Having done two zoology degrees( as you can imagine) I did a ton of animal dissections. They’re important for learning, how can you expect to have trained vets and doctors but get mad about dissections.
