Thank god they brought back An Amount Of Daylight That Makes You Want To Live. It was getting a bit scary for a minute there.

the davy jones tag is a collision of two disparate communities and it really reminds me of being at furcon every single year they scheduled a youth volleyball tournament at the same convention center. we're posting unhinged art of a tentacle man and y'all are going on about some british singer but we're both stuck in the same spot by the powers that be, making uncomfortable eye contact but not really associating. it was just like watching a giant herd of bipedal caribou stroll through the marriott hallway while white PTA moms recoil against the wall and their volleyball champion daughters take selfies with purple dogs

If there was one animal literacy thing I could change with a wave of a wand, it would be increasing people's understanding of how dangerous megafauna are. I think that in the US (and probably other Western countries too), we're so removed from wildlife and even large domesticated animals that people really have no perspective on how much a big animal can fuck you up. Even if they're "gentle."

This is a discussion going on on Twitter, too, the last few days: there was a thing where an Iditarod musher shot a moose to protect their team, and a lot of people are confused as to why that needed to happen. Apparently this moose had been hanging around the course for quite a while and was becoming quite dangerous to the sled dog teams. Moose are territorial and not to be fucked with. Everyone from Alaska or areas with moose are like "yup, that's just reality."

Same thing with the bison birth I watched last year. Folk really thought the staff should be in the habitat on the ground with the bison herd, helping with the birth. Sure, that's what we do with cows if we have to, but... bison are definitely not cows and, again, will squish you.

People tend to get it more with the predators. Few people will argue that a cougar or an alligator or a bear isn't dangerous. I think people kinda go both ways on wild pigs / boars depending on their experience. But herbivores or things that don't look traditionally pointy... it just kinda doesn't click.

Any large animal is probably stronger than you think and more likely to hurt you than you realize. Be it a dolphin, an elk, a sea lion, or even an emperor penguin... just don't go near them, buds.

Trust me, it doesn't click any better for most people when it comes to the predators.

#^^^^katy is correct#i watch the bear cams and any time a cub gets porcupine quilled#a bear has a major limp or injury#or a cub has been separated from its mother#there are hundreds of people demanding the national park service do something about it#it doesn’t matter if we’ve recorded dozens of cubs with quills survive to become adults and have their own wild offspring#or that a bear with its entire side ripped off survived and lived another 6 years#or a bear with a broken jaw survived for another decade#or that moms find their separated cubs a majority of the time#people want rangers to tango with 600-1200lb brown bears#cuz they somehow think it is more humane to permanently remove individuals from the habitat and stick in a zoo/sanctuary#then to just wait and see if the bear recovers on its own#(which it almost always does at Brooks where a surplus of food is a boon for injured bears. like we have bears who specifically#come to brooks when they’re injured and then are rarely seen when healthy#because they know it’s their best chance of survival even if they hate the crowds of people#last year a woman screamed about an adult male with fish line around its neck#and wanted rangers to tranq it and SAVE it#even though it was quite literally just battle scars from mating season#and this person does not understand how dangerous it is for the bear to be tranq’d where 50 other hungry bears are#like please get a grip#also again it was claw marks#cuz they were half inch wide#and EASILY VISIBLE ON THE GARBAGE CAMS. like u aren’t seeing fishing line with this 480 resolution

i can’t believe black sails didn’t win any oscars last night, just because it “wasn’t nominated for any category” because it “ended almost 7 years ago” and “is a tv show and not a movie”

Bow wow wow, bow wow wow He's a good boy that never stops~

Been watching a playthrough of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth and nothing has captured me more than Salmon, the star of the dog escort mission. A little whippet who takes you on a journey and you protect from monsters. I had to draw him, I had to, his song is stuck in my head! I can't wait until this game comes to PC. Enjoy an indulgent drawing of a goodest boy, everyone.
