Man, I'm dying trying to remember my old Youtube login information, I took a video at the Koln zoo in 2007 of a giant suspicious-looking bucket scooting along an enclosure until it popped up slightly to reveal an orangutan underneath, only to come back down and keep scooting and I'd love to share it. I'm gonna work on this, you guys.

The latest batch of drones are kinda ridiculously easy to control. It's almost getting to the point that they don't need human input at all.

Also I want to pet a moose.

Got a call from my mom today trying to get rid of their giant litter of puppies. (originally 8 total) Unfortunately they are German Shorthairs and I get enough excitement from my corgi.






But dang are they cute. To bad they don't always stay small.

Super cute. They look so much like Field-breed English Springers.

Yeah, that's pretty normal. Humans aren't going anywhere near there, and animals don't understand/feel radiation so they're gonna move right on in.

The animals still literally get the effects of radiation, of course, they just don't care about shortened-lifespans and stuff like that for obvious reasons.

And to be honest, they're better off being bathed in radiation than trying to live where humans are rolling over the top of them.

Many animals naturally have too short of a lifespan to really see the effects of radiation exposure. A stoat only lives 4-6 years in the wild, and the doses of radiation they'd be getting wouldn't show signs for decades, so they are fine.

Yes. Preserve nature by making it harmful to humans.

I think it was the aforementioned Gimli the Cat (a cat with dwarfism) that exposed me to the word "cutant". A cute mutant. Here's one of his kitten pictures.

True, but radiation damage can accumulate over generations if we count the increased mutation rate.

Not as badly as you might think. The nastier mutants tend to either be stillborn, sterile, or don't compete well with the healthier specimens.

No problem, glad to hear that :)

The Finnish article about it called it a "torpedo owl" (torpedowl!) but I think I like Dick Trauma's "owlitzer" better.

You know that Siberian fox experiment where they domesticated foxes in like 10-20 generations?

Why haven't we done that with raccoons yet? Whyyyyyyyy
