snake owners

Are you a “this is my perfect sweetest boy, he has so much sweetness in all the scales on his kind little head he makes sugar seem sour” kind of snake owner or a “this is the asshole rope who lives in my home and watches me in the night. I would die for her” snake owner

Possible third option: “this is my Absolute Dumb Ass child who knocks his water over for fun and never learned elementary school math”

Not much better than a line bred locality cornsnake, add in tessera and you really get something really special.

BEWARE!!!

Found this abhorrent and disgusting treatment of an animal on instagram! Rattlesnakes are a huge part of our environment, and places like Texas and a few other more southern states are already being impacted by the obscene number of destroyed snakes every year. (For example, in 2006, 125,000 rattlesnakes were rounded up to be killed, according to the American Society of Ichthyologists and Herpetologists)

Infections from biting insects like chiggers are higher than they’ve ever been. People’s dogs and small children are getting bitten and falling seriously ill, all because people feed into the superstition surrounding rattlesnakes, and regularly massacre thousands every year.

This is a cruel and horrible way for this animal to die, and it will (and did) suffer to its last breath, unable to feed or defend itself. If this were anything else- a dog, a rabbit, a cat, there would be an uproar… but it’s okay because snakes aren’t fluffy companions?

This woman, and Channel 7News, should absolutely be ashamed of themselves for condoning animal cruelty. If they wish to truly educate their viewers, they should be advocating for the end of snake brutality, not encouraging the practice of mistreating them. Several people have tried to reach out to her, but this woman has blocked every single one and refuses to listen to anyone else’s words on the matter.

Awful.

#CROW NO

Crow: CROW YES!

It’s actually impossible to measure how many fucks a corvid give because there is no device sensitive enough to register such a tiny amount.

science/animal side of tumblr… explain to me the birb thing

red3blog

Tail Pulling is a behavior noted in many corvids. The practical application is to create a distraction that will allow the birb to make off with the target’s food. Imagine being in the lunch room and a large fellow has a Twinkie you covet. You can’t just take it from him because he’ll defend his Twinkie. But if you thwap him on the back of his neck and then dash around to snag the Twinkie while he investigates, you stand a decent chance of enjoying spongey goodness. This is basically that in birb form.

Except corvids don’t only do this as a distraction. Sometimes they seem to just being doing it to mess with other animals/birbs. But to use my lunch room analogy, there are times you might thwap someone sneakily on the back of the neck just for amusement. Primates exhibit behavior that appears to be just be annoying other animals for amusement. Given how intelligent crows are, its not unlikely that this is a manifestation of an innate desire to just fuck with someone else for the fun of it. Such as this from the link above:

THANK YOU FOR THE BIRB KNOWLEDGE

BECAUSE IT IS FUN

This speaks to me on a molecular level.

birbs just wanna have fun

huntersonthewingarchive

Sorry to hijack a little, but to put it bluntly, corvids are also pretty BALSY. They are more than prepared to harass other huge birds of prey which could deal them a lot of damage. There’s plenty of cases of corvids ‘riding’ other birds as well. It’s often to harass the larger bird out of the area, but as @red3blog said, they quite often (in layman’s terms) enjoy fucking shit up for fun.

‘Where the hell is the seatbelt on this thing?’

I mean they deserve a medal for having such huge bird balls imo

Literally no fucks are given by corvids. Ever.

It is the year 2046. The time has come for the annual Blog Inspection. Armed android wardens begin to arrive at the homes of the country’s prisoners who were once called citizens. A warden knocks on a ramshackle door. It is answered by an old man, bedraggled, starving, weary. The robotic guard’s abdominal display screen flickers to life with the image of a popular post on tumblr. “This has to be on everyone’s blog at least once,” intones the android. Fear enters the man’s eyes. He has not reblogged this post. He shrieks and, with one fell motion, blasts a hole into the android’s head with his laser magnum. Everyone in the neighborhood watches on in horror as the man, calling for liberation, is tackled by dozens of androids. His screams die with the buzz of plasma spears. There is no freedom. This has to be on everyone’s blog at least once. Everyone’s.
