Jumping spider, maybe won't hurt you, and take a better picture man.

>>2159267
It's a salticid.

It will harm you if it bites you, because bites usually involve puncturing skin.
The pertinent questions are "will it bite you?" and "how bad would a bite be?"
The answer to the former is "no, you idiot."
The answer to the latter is "less than poking yourself with a needle, unless you're fucking dirty as shit in which case you'll get an infection from your own gross skin like 90% of all 'brown recluse bites'"

>better picture
It was the best I could get, I shit you not.

I eventually just took the little guy outside, and let him roam free. I love jumping spiders, cute little things.

Then you obviously don't know shit about working with wild animals

Same.buy I understand why they killed him. The kids head was bombing against the ground as harambe ran across the enclosure. But I don't think he was going to kill him

#justiceforharambe

They just want to be with you.

>> dog slams paw into door
>> literally punches it open
my dog does this also

but I figured out if I turn the handle as I close the door, it'll latch properly. funny to hear him punching and headbutting the door to get in

they just like to be where you are, OP

>Not hanging out with your animals while you take a dump
LOOKS LIKE WE GOT OURSELVES A PLEB

No, man, that thing is dead and gone.

>>2158158
You wont be able to lure it.

But look in dark corners or near a heat supply

>>2158159
>>2158160
Fuuuuuck. Odd question but if i watch the cats stool might something pass?

>>2158030
If you actually love foxes do not try to own one. Volunteer at a sanctuary.

Not a good idea unless you have the funds and space for it. They are called wild animals for a reason

So do all foxes a favor, and just dont impulse buy ok?

>>2158030
You could look for those russian-bred foxes that are domesticated in a sense, but still would cost you 5000$ at least

Rather look for a sanctuary as >>2158034 pointed out or get a dog.

But anon they just musundastood iz all about the training iz muh nanny dog

To be fair, you can do the same thing for akitas, GSDs, rottweilers, and huskys.

>I am going to spend thousands of dollars on a breed consistently ranked as having one of the highest incidents of attacks on people.

They're really good at weight pull and drafting.

>>2157408
This. I love chows despite their aggression and I plan on getting a GSD puppy for Schutzhund.

>>2157091
What do you mean by "on the street" and why do you think the other is injured?

Not to sound like an ass,
but you should have let nature take its course.

That's a fledgling, they're not supposed to be in a nest any longer. it's too big. It's parents are out looking for it, and they bring it food and feed it on the ground.

Put it back where you found it ASAP and you better HOPE the parents are still looking for it. Because if they assumed that they are dead and moved on, well, then it's 100% your fault they died. So I hope you're proud of yourself.

No. they are still pissed off about the Sea World thing.

>>2151917
Well how many sea world dolphins have been released? I'd imagine theyed only know about orcas abducted by sea world or being killed by whalers?

After all, pacific NW tribes have hunted orcas for centuries

>>2151918
Dolphins have been known to rape divers too.

Well, she's a reptile and kind of a bitch.
Cuntasaur just seemed fitting.

He was black,
so I called him Blacky.

It was the name the rescue groups gave them. I only rescue animals, and it is my tradition to keep the names they got.

Adopt, don't shop, bbqgrill

it must be fun to have chikonz and shit

my friend told me a story about chikonz he said they're tough as nails, he said one of his chikonz got basically its entire breast muscle on one side just ripped off its body by a fox, and it actually healed up and continued living normally

I found these from my backyard, , my terrariums mostly have ferns and pothos but I thought I might add some small stuff as fillers/diversity I just dont know if its a no no, can someone ID them out of curiosity anyway?

It's very likely that they won't grow well indoors.

>>2159328
Don't. Parasites, mites, disease, you know - all that good stuff.
Grow plants from seed in baked soil if you really need them.

Bump?

Hey man, I've had a guina pig back in time but it didnt last long. Anyway, the lil guys like carrots, apple and many more vegetable. With that they tend to poop a lot and it it up again but it's normal. Make sure they drink and eat regularly, if they don't it's a bad sign.

They're top tier cute and fun to play with so have fun with them !

Cute guinea pigs. The left one (keisuke?) looks very fluffy

Don't have a pic to go with this but it'll have to do.

About three years ago my mother and I were driving home from work. We decided to take the back way after stopping at the gym; it's a two-lane road that turns into a four-lane after a stoplight. We pass that and I see, out my window, a snapping turtle that's the size of a large backpack trying to cross the road. In afternoon, rush hour traffic.

I shouted at my mom to turn around, she does, and we got stuck at the light we just passed trying to reach it. So I got out and haul ass across the road back to it, just in time to grab its shell, inches from the pavement, and keep it from going to the Great Pond in the sky. Mom pulled up, turned on her emergency flashers for that lane, and we tried to steer the snapper (now pissy that we’ve interrupted it) back down the steep, grassy incline from whence it came.

And then the cops showed up (cont?)

>>2159643
yeah, cont, where is this?
