MrYenko posted:I’ve seen Harpy Eagles track infants and toddlers too. The more observant parents are like “look, they want to play with you!” Africa’s crowned eagle is known to prey on human children. There are no document attacks by harpy eagles, but anything that eats monkeys is suspect.

Tree Bucket posted:Five-way symmetry in nature is just wrong. They are technically bilaterally symmetric, not rotationally symmetric. Geometrically it’s both, but they evolved from bilateral organisms with more conventional body plans, and this leads to quirks like having a preferred direction of travel. They don’t just lead with whichever limb is convenient.

Beachcomber posted:Apparently pelicans in St. James park, outside buckingham palace, are known to eat squirrels. I wonder how many dead drops they ate. Neil Gaiman posted:The ducks in St James's Park are so used to being fed bread by secret agents meeting clandestinely that they have developed their own Pavlovian reaction. Put a St James's Park duck in a laboratory cage and show it a picture of two men—one usually wearing a coat with a fur collar, the other something sombre with a scarf—and it'll look up expectantly. quote:During the Cold War, the CIA used gutted rats as dead drops-places to hide messages, money, and film to be passed to agents. The rats were doused with pepper sauce to deter scavenging cats. https://www.spymuseum.org/exhibition-experiences/about-the-collection/collection-highlights/rat-concealment/ Pepper sauce wouldn’t deter pelicans. The entire point of capsaicin for the chili plant is that it affects mammals and not birds. Platystemon has a new favorite as of 12:36 on Mar 16, 2021 |

bike tory posted:Y'all really give people lighter sentences because they've bought local? America is so loving wild holy poo poo It’s just that a pretext is necessary for the federal government to become involved. It’s a relic of a time when the federal government was less powerful. This can be as little as “defendant was growing cannabis in own home for own use however cannabis is known to be traded across state lines, therefore defendant is engaged in interstate commerce.”
