I'm glad to see the positive shark posts, I love sharks :shobon:

One thing I've wondered with divers interacting with sharks is if the coloration of the wetsuit affects anything. There was a study on capturing small lizards that found they were calmer if the scientists wore t-shirts with similar colours to the lizards. I know sharks don't have particularly good eye sight but would wetsuits coloured like a remora or cleaner wrasse have a better chance of positive interactions?



Look I want to be able to disguise myself and trick a bunch of sharks into letting me pet them. For science.

The San Diego Zoo staff told us it was because cheetahs have high-anxiety and being around an always-chill dog like a Labrador helps keep them calm. I figure it's only appropriate for other big cats that are naturally anxious.

This but also it's about as high energy as much as chill. They have similar body sizes and Remus has plenty of energy to keep Kris running in bursts. Another issue is that isolated cats don't have access to social play but it turns out young dogs play a lot like young cats.

Even the smaller cats tend to emotionally outgrow their companions, but the larger ones physically do. Their behavior usually changes at some point and to territorial/aggressive, corresponding to when they'd have to be soloing in the wild. And sometimes the dogs just get to old to keep playing at cheetah speed.

Why was everything I was told about shark skin as a kid a lie anyway? I was told it was made of billions of little teeth and that it was used to give traction to sword grips in Japan etc.

Shark skin being smooth as hell is a meme. A jape. It is humorous for people to go along with it and claim sharkskin is smooth whenever anyone brings up the idea that sharkskin is not smooth, or is only smooth in one direction.

Ok, I am going insane with frustration at this point. All embedded videos started autoplaying again a couple of weeks ago and it's gotten to the point that if I try to view this thread it crashes my phone. I've tried everything I can in chrome, I tried switching to Firefox, I just got a new(ish) phone and I've tried everything I can think of on it and the old one and NOTHING WORKS

Omg it took me so long to distinguish your hand and thumb from the catte. I was scared to post thinking your cat had a scary giant chicken hand or something.

E: what are their naaaames. Did I miss yours in your previous hey-I'm-not-rexie goblin introduction?
