Animals

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

I've got nothing against pigs in general, but they aren't these cute cuddly 'Babe" characters. A lot of the reason fewer people get killed by pigs than dogs is better control measures. But they're capable of taking off a leg or arm in one bite.

❗️Amazing animals! Mole rats are active both during the day and at night. They dig holes up to 100 m long and up to 4 m deep. They arrange special pantries, nesting chambers and even special latrines in them. They rarely rise to the surface of the earth, and then only at night 🔽

Actual moles of any variety are why we fear the coming of the Mole People.

Shit, shit, fuck, copperhead, shit, shit, shit.

Can you spot the copperhead snake perfectly hidden in plain sight?

Nope.
Spoiler:

Even with it marked I had to put on my readers and zoom in. Then, I'm still only seeing part of the snake.

This I did spot:

Can you spot the bighorn sheep that is using cryptic coloration?

Orcas sink yacht off Portugal

:shock:
Orcas have been attacking sailboats for a couple of years there, speculation is because of overfishing and no food.

I've never seen a copperhead that color.

Just saying.....maybe a juvenile.

Here's a big fat one I had to extract from my house. Threw him in a cooler and took him to Dupont.

Yours looks similar to the MO one to me, as does this one from your link:

Juvenile copperheads have a yellow or green tail to attract small prey.

No yellow or green tail visible with the MO snake, though. There could be regional variations in colors, too.

Orcas have sunk 3 boats in Europe and appear to be teaching others to do the same. But why?

There is SciFi that begins this way. It doesn't end well.
