there's a tortoise at work and he's 30 years old and I love that he's 30 years old because I can look at this animal that is 3 years older than me and go "does the man want his appy slices??" and he hustles over cause the man do want his appy slices

I went and looked up the clip just to get a better feel for what happened. I knew the ending, I knew what was coming, and I still got chills and almost cried.

THIS IS THE KIND OF WHOLESOME HUMAN CONTENT I LOVE TO SEE ON MY DASH.

i learned about Tim Wong who successfully and singlehandedly repopulated the rare California Pipevine Swallowtail butterfly in San Francisco. In the past few years, he’s cultivated more than 200 pipevine plants (their only food source) and gives thousands of caterpillars to his local Botanical Garden (x)

This is also an example of picking One Thing and putting most of your Better The World efforts there. We have so many different important issues to care about and act toward, and it’s tempting to try and do a Little for Many Things - and I’m not saying that little bits of effort don’t add up! They do. But often you’ll make a bigger impact (and possibly have less compassion/activist fatigue) if you direct the majority of your efforts toward one or two things.

this guidebook from 1831 says the water from the seine is good but “has a laxative quality”…girl that is the cholera

pros to bringing back bison to our prairies and having less cows:

- bison take up way less energy in the winter because they dont need shelter and theyre built for blizzards, their hump is literally adapted to plow through snow

[image description: an articulated bison skeleton display on a mostly black background, the spinous processes between the shoulder blades are approximately as long as the shoulder blades are and get gradually shorter towards the hips end description] - bison have no natural predators, (aside from humans), and can protect themselves. it would remove the excuse of slaughtering wolves to protect cattle - theres the idea that cattle will trip on prairie dog holes, be injured, and cost a lot of money to fix. bison are smart enough to avoid holes and are adapted alongside with prairie dogs. less killing of prairie dogs equals more prey for black footed ferrets. which are heavily endangered due to cattle grazing land and mass slaughter/revenge killing of prairie dogs by farmers - a large portion of bison conservation efforts are indigenous ranchers and support of these efforts is support of indigenous sovereignty and vice versa - bison graze by taking off the tops of grass and moving on, they avoid most wildflowers as well, cattle tear clumps of grass out and destroy vegetation that arent made for cattle predation - bison are more efficient in digestion than cattle are and need less grass to sustain themselves, and tho bison still create lots of methane like all bovids do, we have more cows than we would have bison (also spoiler alert, majority of greenhouse gas emissions are burning of fossil fuels, not cattle, despite the amount of people preaching how evil cow methane is)

and finally…

theyre supposed to be here!!!! they were strategically killed nearly to extinction to aid in the genocide of native americans, restoration to bison isnt the whole picture but its a huge step to righting many wrongs
