Is that a pooperpillar?

That's what it looks like.

Is your cat an outside cat? Probably picked it up from crawling through the bushes. Then felt it crawling through it's ass hairs and freaked out.

If it's hurting your dog or training it to be aggressive.

>>2034055
If you notice your dog flinching, trying to escape, or retaliating with bites.

>>2034065
>>2034074
So would it be okay to punch your dog as long as he's not showing any signs of being hurt?

They sell root hormones. You dip a cut end into the powder and then let it sit in water or something.

I don't know.

>>2034049
Usually you're supposed to take cuttings in the spring or summer when the plant is actively growing. Sticking the cuttings in as well draining potting mix and keeping it moist is usually enough to get it rooted.

There's a gardening thread on /out/ that may be able to help you more than /an/.

>you're supposed to take cuttings in the spring or summer
It was given to me, and I wouldn't have had the opportunity to take it later this year unfortunately.

The stuff that comes with

It's probably because any hobbiest photographer posts on /p/ for feedback. I want to try to get into basic photography of nature and deep space. I have a Nikon D3300 to start with. Just need to learn how to take pictures super good.

Current DVM/MS student working with a swine laboratory and at the local animal shelter.

is that his butthole or what? all I'm gonna say is if my dog had that thing ANYWHERE I'd take him to the vet.

he's probably acting weird cause he feels bad

>>2033259
Those are clearly a dog's balls.

>>2033164
>I'm worried about it but they don't want to bring him to the vet

Op, take him to a vet please!

Tarentola mauritanica.

Yes, my co-worker wants to take it home!

>>2032635

you really don't recognize a goddamn seagull?

>>2032548
Ain't look like no seagull to me, unless you're telling me this is a male/female bird or some shit.

Not even orange beak bruh.

>>2032549
it's a juvenile Larus argentatus.

Use any small children on hand as bait and try counting them. Might require several tries.

Normal coyotes (most of the US and Canada) are solitary animals. They don't hunt in packs but a fair number can live in the same general area. These aren't dangerous bar rabies and as far as I now have never killed a human directly.

The eastern coyote, also called tweed wolves or the annoying "coywolf", in the Northeastern US and Canada they are actually hybrids of coyotes, eastern wolves, and domestic dogs. They can form hunting pairs or even small family based packs and grow about twice the size of a normal coyote but are no where near wolf sized. Still not very dangerous to people but have managed to kill a few people.

>>2032370
It's probably not as many as you think. Coyote family groups make a ton of noise, especially when the older ones head out and come back from hunting. Since you're in rural Mississippi, think of it as like when rednecks go to visit relatives--they see cousin Jimmy Joe's truck coming up the drive and all spill out of the trailer, hootin' and a' hollerin'.

The groups are usually a breeding pair, maybe 1 or 2 offspring from the previous year, and the current year's pups. They're not as cohesive or stable as wolf packs and tend to disperse into solo animals when there aren't any pups.

Since they're more noticeable now they may have dug out a den and had pups somewhere behind your house. Or (since I don't know you) maybe you've gotten more observant over the years and are now picking up on things you missed before. Who knows?

It's a nice sound though. I grew up in rural Texas and it always reminds me of summer evenings as a kid.

Some do, some don't. If your dog stares at you frequently, it's probably one of the ones that does.

it's only to preserve the owner's soul, so they could be together forever

I work at a shelter, and we got in two pomeranians that were owned by an elderly man before he died. he fell and couldn't get up, and no one came for him so he died

no one found his body until two weeks later, and the dogs were loose in the house with no access to food aside from, well, him.. you can imagine how that went

they got adopted out to a nice family though. we weren't legally obligated to tell them, so we didn't. always felt weird about it.

>>2030147
walking with prehistoric beasts but a lot of smaller details are incorrect or new evidence has invalidated it like for example Gastornis was most likely a herbivore rather a then carnivore

there isn't much on them because they're extremely boring.

>>2030147
bugguy's right.
the public doesn't have much interest in Cenozoic mammals, so there isn't much out there in the form of videos aimed at adults.

Scientists are the opposite, they're way more interested in mammals than in dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals. There's probably 20 times more scientific articles on extinct mammals than there are on any other group of animals.

It doesn't get much more boring than reading scientific papers though. It's like drowning slowly in lukewarm vanilla pudding while listening to news about british golfing tournaments.

>>2027092
because you think they are

>>2027092
I don't know, but they certainly look nutritious. All soft and fatty.

>>2027104
I'll bet they are, too bad it's illegal.

I don't know, I'd have poured the last of the hot sauce in his eyes.

..........there wasn't any left after he dumped it in there.

would've beat the shit out of my friend.

please tell me you at least kicked him out of the house and you told all of your mutual friends what a shitty person he is and cut all ties with him.
