My mom feeds a few trees full of squirrels, crows, and jays and tey love the shelled nuts and rice and weird stuff.

RoboRodent posted:Giant otters are longer and sea otters get heavier than wolverines. Wolverines are more like big badgers. They're really only like a meter long. They take down reindeer regularly and have been recorded killing moose and elk, thats pretty drat good for an animal that size. Wolverine chose his name wisely  Also their cubs are cute

Taerkar posted:Probably not, but your doom would almost certainly not com from a snow leopard. From what I've heard from zoo workers they're incredibly non-aggressive most of the time. (And yes apparently the fur is rather soft) I used to work at a natural history museum where we had a couple of snow leopard pelts, they are so soft (but their claws are also so sharp) went to the zoo to see their new polar bear cub

Pinball posted:Nope; the only other breed known to have the mutation is the Flat-Coated Retriever, since they and Labs both descend from the now-extinct St. John's Water Dog. Not every labrador has the mutation though. The allele frequency was found to be about 12 % (which is still quite prevalent). The odd thing is that the frequency rose to 45 % when they looked at assistance dogs, so the mutation may also influence desirable assistance dog traits in some way

j.peeba posted:Dormouse in Finnish is called unikeko, ”sleep-heap”, because of their long hibernation periods. We call them syvsovere (“sevensleepers”) in Danish, after a christian/islamic story about seven youths who tried to hide from religious persecution in a cave and ended up sleeping for 200 years. When I was younger i always assumed the name was from them sleeping seven days a week.
