Cowman posted:That monkey is such an rear end in a top hat. It shoved a couple animals off the table and then started beating up that puppy. Fantastic video. Monkeys are diseased hostile animals in general. I'd rather be in a room with a wild gorilla than a wild monkey. Bonobo's, on the other hand, inherited all of the monkey's non-rear end in a top hat genes.

The sad thing about this is that bonobos are only free-love hippies who gently caress everyone as a way of saying "hi" in areas with abundant resources and few natural predators. In areas where they have to compete for resources more they are absolute dickheads like all great apes (and like chimpanzees especially) Primates are fukt. Birds meanwhile are always lovely and friendly and kind and giving. It is just that *screaming* and biting your ears off are actually signs of affection among birds.

White shirts washed with most detergents will be really bright UV reflectors. Birds can see in ultraviolet, and cockatiels in particular have very beautiful UV coloration.

Cockatoos are awesome and hilarious, but I could never handle the amount of noise they make; they pretty much freak out and start head banging, jumping around and yelling every half hour or so, which makes for great YouTube videos but would probably get old fast at 3am. As far as birds go, I prefer pigeons as pets. They're largely quiet, can be very friendly with humans (especially if raised around people), are non-destructive, have soft beaks (which means they can't even draw blood by biting you as hard as they can) and are generally low maintenance as far as birds go. Give them an hour or two of attention a day, a cage or space large enough for them to flap their wings and walk around and food/water daily and they're good to go. It's a shame that more people who like birds don't know that pigeons make awesome pets, especially because there are so many domesticated pigeons that can't survive in the wild that are regularly euthanized at shelters because no one knows to look for them.

I found someone's abandoned domesticated pigeon about two years back, sitting/making GBS threads on my studio's entryway. But she had broken bones, calcified poop on every toe, and was generally in bad shape and though I tried calling a couple bird rescues, nobody would take in this pigeon. I made a thread on PI back in the day to ask for help, but in the end I couldn't help her and took her to the animal shelter to be put down. Sorry filthy hobo pigeon, I tried.

Gg I hope the alien civilization that discovers us goes through these same motions before euthanizing humanity.

But she had broken bones, calcified poop on every toe, and was generally in bad shape and though I tried calling a couple bird rescues, nobody would take in this pigeon. I volunteer for a local non-profit called Palomacy (San Francisco, though they serve the greater bay area) and it's really unfortunate how few shelters are willing to take in pigeons, even if they're domestic and unable to survive in the wild at all. A lot of people (read: ignorant fools) will see domestic pigeons being sold live for food at street markets and will buy them and "free" them in a park or something. The vast majority are killed within the day either by cars, predators or even rear end in a top hat people (why do parents never bother to tell their kids to stop terrorizing and kicking at pigeons?), and the very few who are lucky enough to be rescued tended to end up being euthanized at a shelter despite being in good health. I personally rescued the single surviving baby pigeon out of six that had been reported as being abandoned under a park bench; no one found out until it was dark, and by the time I found the bench all but one had been killed and eaten by raccoons, and I found the lone survivor soaking wet hiding behind a rock next to a lake, about nine feet away from where another racoon was eating her companion. Really hosed up, as whoever bought those six baby pigeons and released them did no research whatsoever and just assumed they'd be fine in the wild. Our organization is literally the first result if you Google "pigeon rescue sf". Thankfully the one baby I rescued survived and I take care of her at my house now; I named her Elma, after the name of the little girl that reported seeing the baby pigeons and thus saved at least one of their lives. I'd post pictures but I'm at work. Thankfully since Palomacy (previously Mickacoo) got up and running we've managed to save 800+ domestic and unreleasable pigeons and doves, as well as managing to educate local shelters like SFACC about how to care for birds and actually show people that they're there and up for adoption instead of keeping them locked up in tiny cages in back room. Several times when I've visited I've checked a starving baby pigeon's chart and seen that they were being fed 2mL of food a day (the minimum amount is 30-40mL a day).
