God this comic is so old. I started it right after the Striker episode dropped and I’ve just been messing with it ever so often…Might still continue tweaking it…
Might I ask if there's anything cursed about rhinos, biology-ways?
yes, there are many things cursed, rhino-ways!
for instance! rhino hearing?
EXCELLENT
rhino sense of smell?
FANTASTIC
rhino vision?
ABSOLUTE DOGSHIT
rhino eyesight is is so short-range that they can't really make out any objects more than about ninety feet away, and details just straight-up elude them!
that's okay though, because if you're a rhino you can always just put your head down and charge any suspicious blurs in your vicinity, and as long as they're smaller than an elephant, you're good :)
oh FUCK
If rhinos need to be airlifted, they generally need to be suspended by the feet, and they look really silly
This guy in the photo wandered into known poaching areas, and they had to airlift him to safety ASAP
They need to be transported upside down because were they in a harness, the pressure on their rib cage would crush and damage the lungs (potentially fatally). The alternative is to put them on stretchers like this:
However it takes ~30 minutes to secure a rhino to a stretcher, meaning they need to be knocked out for far longer, and the anaesthetics used can cause either respiratory depression (breathing suppression - less common) or hypoxemia (low blood oxygen - more common) - this is where being suspended upside down actually helps!
A study was done in 2015 to compare sideways lying (like on the stretcher) to upside-down suspension that showed that being upside down actually increases blood oxygen levels as it stretches open the airways, making it the safest, easiest way to transport these 1-3 ton beasts
You can read more about upside-down rhinos here!
For the past decade, conservationists have been airlifting black rhinos upside down. It's faster, cheaper and easier than other airlifting m
love a good hair swap
Honestly, The Nine Realms is a decent show. It still needs to iron a lot of things out, but it’s alright. The characters are mostly likable, the new dragons are cool, and the key plot points thus far have been interesting. Still not on the same caliber as Race to the Edge, but I feel it’ll improve with time.
Nifty: Vaggie, why did you throw Angel Dust out to the streets?
Vaggie: I didn’t throw him into the streets!
Alastor: Quite right! You threw him on the lawn. He rolled into the streets.
Vaggie: I can’t believe I’m finally meeting your father.
Charlie: Yeah… I forgot to warn you that he’s going through one of his phases right now.
Vaggie: That doesn’t sound good, how bad are they?
Lucifer: (Kicks door open with an electric guitar) CHECK THIS RIFF ITS FUCKING TASTY!!!
this is hurting me, dear.
Charlie: Oh wow, I didn’t know you liked baking Cherri.
Cherri: I didn’t bake these. These pies were made in a factory. A bomb factory. They’re bombs.
Blitzo: I’LL TAKE TWENTY!
happy space cowboy saturday
sea slug saturday lets go
Loona: You’re just upset again because you have a micro penis.
Moxxie: That’s rich coming from you.
Loona: What’s that supposed to mean?
Moxxie: Oh, nothing. I wanted to tell a joke, but I’m afraid it’ll fall a little FLAT. Which sucks because I really need to get it off my CHEST.
Loona: (Urge to murder reaching critical mass)
Moxxie: (Strangling Blitzo) LISTEN YOU HOME-WRECKING OWL FUCKER! LOONA HAS BEEN LIVING IN MY APARTMENT DRIVING ME CRAZY! AND YOU WON’T HIRE BACK OVER A STUPID FUCKING HOOORSE!?
