How do I get my puppy to stop eating her poop? It's revolting and no matter what I do, she won't stop.

I had a dream that I went on a whale watch in arctic waters and there was a pod of orcas hunting a pod of blue whales. Is this something that happens?

orcas are ~25 feet long, blue whales are 70+ feet.

so no.

orcas have been observed trying to hunt blue whales.

they don't really succeed at it for obvious reasons though.

Lions are smaller than giraffes. So I don't see why a group of orcas couldn't take out a blue whale but all they have is teeth so I could be in probable

Would it be better for the world (and humanity) if there were less humans in the world (no, not genocide, just birth control)? I mean, if there are less humans, there are less industries and cars polluting, less cows to feed people (the cow farts methane), less destroying forests to build houses and it is easier to control people (in a good way). It's easier to keep an eye on criminals and all that. What do you think?

Obviously, it's the only clear (and plausibly-achievable) solution to literally all of humanity's collective problems - everything would be better/easier with less of us. Also, you really can't rule out genocide as an idea - look how impossible it is to convince anybody who isn't white or Japanese to stop fucking like rabbits.

There's a juvenile duck sleeping in my yard. It's about 55 °f outside. The bird appears to be unable to fly, and its bill has a scrape on it.
Should I do anything?

It's probably fine. 55 isn't cold for it, and it isn't going to fly because it is dark and they don't see terribly well in the dark.

>she's almost 14
>feed her multiple times because she's also got a thyroid condition which speeds up her metabolism
>also figure why not spoil her now that her days are pretty much limited

So it's been a few days and she still only accepts the food if I hand feed it to her?
Is this normal? I've kept cats for a while, never seen this shit.

>feed her multiple times
the increased use of her jaw may lead to enough irritation that she doesn't want to eat. her hunger may overcome the minor irritation that the "normal" amount of feeding causes.

Mute swans aren't a non-issue for native ducks and seabirds. And they could be realistically outlawed and eradicated at this point.

Cats are horrible too and ideally wouldn't be legal pets - but that's a much taller order.

Yesterday I was trainning when I saw a girl with a raven, like half an hour later the bird flew away and the girl ran after him. Today in the morning I went to train and the bird was there so I brought him back to my home while I locate the girl, she studies in the same school as me, so I don't think it'll take long. However, now I'm stuck with a raven and I have no idea what to feed it. Can anyone help?

Notes:
He isn't hostile towards so no worries there

Put it back where you found it and leave it.

It's a wild animal, not a pet.

If you feed it, it's going to look to humans for food and become a nuisance and eventually get killed as a result.

Just caught a live mouse my cat found in the apartment. Slippery little bastard. What the hell do I do with it? Never had any experience with mice in my residence before. Tried to give him to muenster cheese but he ain't havin' any of that. I thought mice liked cheese, this is bullshit.
