RUSH Posted March 22, 2017 The spiny anteater! AKA "long-beaked Echidna." One of the weirdest animals of all time. They have the large body of a porcupine with the snout of an ant-eater. They also lay eggs and have four-headed penises. Yeah. 2 Share this post Link to post
Aquanet Posted March 28, 2017 (edited) Silverfish. Gross, right? Well yes. They're also not an animal. But hear me out. They evolved somewhere around 400 million years ago (the Jurassic period was only 150-200 million years ago) from the very earliest insects and have been creeping around in the cracks of the evolutionary world ever since. Today, they tend to stick to cities where they dwell in damp basements, bathrooms, and the like. Unlike other pests, like roaches, they tend to keep to themselves and may not present a nuisance other than to nibble on the odd book binding -- they love carbohydrates. Other facts: Silverfish can live up to eight years. Silverfish reproduce sexually (sort of) at the end of a complex three-part ritual lasting up to thirty minutes. Silverfish can outrun pretty much all spiders and other predators but are shit at climbing walls so the key is to box them in. Silverfish can live up to a year without eating. After the apocalypse, and the second apocalypse, there will still be silverfish. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lepisma_saccharina 2 Share this post Link to post

TwinBeast Posted March 28, 2017 One time a silverfish pooped into my hand. I could see the poops moving through its transparent body.. and then the little things were on my hand. I like spiders too. One spider lived in my bathroom for a couple of weeks, then got out of the bathroom for a little trip... and then died at the bathroom door threshold when coming back... awwg. 1 Share this post Link to post

Trupiak Posted March 28, 2017 Deer, mostly because of gracefulness of their movement, the way they prance around, each move swift and nice. To me they look nice and are interesting, I also like them because of the deer's pacifist nature 1 Share this post Link to post

I had five of them standing right next to the house the other day. I suppose I'll get used to it but for now I get all excited and run to find the camera every time I see one. There's two in this picture: The polar bear is my favorite but I haven't seen any around here, though. 1 Share this post Link to post
Grazza Posted March 29, 2017 Oh yeah, polar bears, I'd forgotten about them. You may or may not want to view the third one at full size. "They're happy because they eat whale!" All pictures taken in Hinlopenstretet (maybe Lomfjorden), 18th June 2010. 2 Share this post Link to post

They're super cute. <3 Really makes me want to have them as pets, but I don't like the idea of "locking" them away, or something like that. 0 Share this post Link to post
Da Werecat Posted March 29, 2017 I'm iffy about the idea of locking any kind of animal away for some reason. Even though I'm sure that any dog or cat I care about would live a better life in the house than on the street or in the wild, the whole idea still makes me mildly uncomfortable. It's like their only purpose there is to amuse us. 0 Share this post Link to post

Agentbromsnor Posted April 1, 2017 I like almost all animals, except for humans. I'm kind of a misanthrope in the sense that I think objectively speaking, humans are one of the most repulsive creatures on this planet (both in behaviour and appearance). When it comes to 'domestic' animals, I definately prefer dogs. Dogs being social animals, they can learn things pretty easily, whereas with a cat you need to be very strict (which almost nobody ever is). 0 Share this post Link to post
