Absolutely. They're called dinoflagellates and there are 18 kinds that bioluminesce.

They glow when agitated!

edit: The imgur description links to a kickstarter product called DinoPet on Amazon that lets you essentially grow your own in a glass dinosaur that you shake to make them glow. You feed them so they have the energy to produce light.

Think sea monkeys but for rich kids.

Any reason to avoid growing it in the cold if you're indoors?

The imgur post links to these on Amazon. Less than $5 and with Prime I might pick up a bag. Any tips?

edit: Bought one and some cute lil pots cause /u/kusp123 had a kit that came with some and it worked well.

Lets see how quick I can kill them

There's certainly suits of different degrees of quality.

For most beekeepers, they probably aren't even going to bother with more than a veil because there's no need. A bee might occasionally find their way into a veil like that, and 95% of the time that it happens you can just take the veil off and let her fly away without a sting.

OP's dude with the angry hornet is a different story.

Get it on BluRay! Totally worth it. Everything looks and sounds better. I haven’t gone through the bonus features yet but I plan to as soon as I finish my rewatch.

Having read "The Soul of an Octopus: A Surprising Exploration into the Wonder of Consciousness" I will never eat octopus. And am glad I never have. Now the mere sight of a dish of octopus makes me feel ill.

https://www.amazon.com/Soul-Octopus-Surprising-Exploration-Consciousness/dp/1451697724

I think the octopus is the most remarkable animal on the planet. They're the size of a grain of rice when they're born. They receive no parental instruction. They have to learn everything on their own. They have a short lifespan with most species only living one to two years.

And they develop this incredible intelligence. Their abilities at problem solving and mimicry are legendary.

Not a bad price but they don't glow constantly, only when you shake the dinosaur and move the water.

Yes, many animals have been observed to act weird during totality.

This gif comes from the BBC series "The Hunt". It's in episode 4, titles "Hunger at Sea". This is the link to the episode on Netflix. It may also link to the exact time code the sequence starts at, but if it doesn't, it begins just before 5:00 in.

I seriously suggest you watch the entire series. It's one of the most gorgeous nature docs I've seen, and the intros are just something else entirely. And it's narrated by the lovely Sir David Attenborough!

Michigander, here. I’m spite of warnings people try to climb on the ice shelves in Lake Michigan and wind up falling in the shafts. Wouldn’t surprise me if people tried climbing out onto this at all. Some people underestimate the lake in summer, but vastly underestimate it in the winter when it is all silent and frozen.

you can buy owl pellets on amazon. I do and send them to college friends from time to time. they get grossed out. I have a great time. https://www.amazon.com/Barn-Owl-Pellets-Large-Pack/dp/B00FGED110

you can do this hike! it’s long and the grade is kinda steep in some places but super worth it (there are also gondolas that can take you up in some spots, but you won’t get the same magnificence).

I did alta via 2 a few years back and it’s one of the most fun and rewarding things I’ve ever done. part of the route we took was a 4 hour, cable-assisted, vertical climb (“via ferrata”). that sounds insane but honestly it was one of the least difficult (but most fun) parts — if you have some experience climbing in a gym you’ll find it easy (the gym is actually harder because free climbing is, well, freer, despite the route being much much longer). but that’s completely optional.

along the path we stayed in, for lack of a better term, mountain hostels to stay the night. they serve the most amazing food you’ll ever eat because you have worked fucking HARD for it.

i’m sure they offer guided hikes but we planned the trek ourselves with a guide by Gillian Price — we even found this location and took a cool photo to match the cover up to the actual range :)

all in all, hard yes; do recommend. any outdoors person should look into doing this awesome and gorgeous trek!

Just what we needed. Wikipedia with a terrible layout and ads

I never got to do it either :( But my son dissected one at a science camp once and came home with a pregnant mouse skeleton with fetal mouse skeletons inside it. It was amazing. I just did some google and found this on Amazon. Look at the customer reviews and images- they look awesome! I think I want to buy it to try it out myself.

There's a book on this called "Scale" written by a theoretical physicist that explains why phenomenon like arteries and capillaries are all governed by physical constraints and shows you all the different ways those constraints manifest.

That's actually a really sad story. That orca was taken from it's birth family, kept in dark, barely large enough tanks for years, and "conditioned" for SeaWorld shows it's whole life. While captive it was documented showing violent and aggressive behavior towards other orcas and trainers, but was often ignored by management. After the incident with the trainer, investigations were opened (at the behest of SeaWorld), and psychologists claimed the orca showed signs of mental disease, similar to PTSD and Psychosis in humans.

My point is that this incident is NOT indicative of Orca behavior, in or out of captivity.

Humans kidnapped and beat down an intelligent organism, and it snapped.

Oh, and fuck SeaWorld.

https://www.accuweather.com/en/weather-news/scientists-debunk-myth-that-yellowstone-wolves-changed-entire-ecosystem-flow-of-rivers/349988

This explains the issue of why claiming wolves allowed beavers/willows to return is false. Once the beavers left it permanently changed the streams from wide/shallow to deep/narrow. A deep/narrow steam has drier banks which willows cannot grow in. Over-grazing elk are no longer the issue preventing willows (and by extension beavers) from returning, so wolves eating some elk doesnt change anything.

Separately, this video gives wayyy to much credit to wolves for the decline in elk populations. Bears and mountain lions have also returned to the park and feed on elk. Also, the elk migrate out of the park every year where the surrounding states actively thin out the herds through hunting in order to prevent over population.

That's not too bad. And with all these home automated systems I'm sure you could make an auto feeder that you could control with your phone if needed. I want jellies one day, but maybe when I have more than just a bedroom to call my own. Are you using the nano tank that's sold on Amazon? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01J4LN52U/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_OZP2ybQYQMVMT

Some questionable reviews on there.

You can tell it's from the Patagonian population by of its longer ears. Super cool. Body size is greatest at the northern and southern limits of their range, and gets smaller in the middle. Path of the Puma is a super well-written, informative book for those interested in the history and conservation of this really neat species.

I read The Soul of an Octopus: A Surprising Exploration into the Wonder of Consciousness last winter. Love them buggers!

>Loons are built a little differently, their legs are set further back, pretty much at the back of the body instead of the middle of the bottom. That makes them great in water but terrible on land.

This is also why loons, and their closely related cousins grebes, are physically unable to fly from land. They need to be in a large body of water to get up enough speed to take off. So if a loon is knocked out of the sky by a sudden storm or mistakenly lands on wet pavement, ice, or solar installations after mistaking it for water, the bird will be unable to fly unless it's taken to a lake and released there.

My local wildlife rehabilitator ends up transporting "grounded" loons and grebes to lakes fairly frequently, especially during migration season. The good news is that the birds are seldom physically injured from mistaken landings and just need a little transportation to the nearest lake so they can continue on their way.

>If you're in your car on the road when a tornado is approaching, hiding under an overpass is your safest bet." MYTH This is probably the worst tornado myth. Taking shelter under an overpass is one of the most dangerous things you can do when a tornado is approaching. The reason has to do with the way the tornado's winds could potentially interact with the bridge structure. At the very least, taking shelter under an overpass puts you at a higher elevation with no protection from debris and winds. The Norman, Oklahoma Weather Service office compiled a presentation on the topic after the May 3, 1999 tornado outbreak, which can be viewed here. More on tornado safety here

Are you saying the bird isn't actually on the deer's head? This reverse image search shows the picture first appearing in August 2013.

If it is a Photoshop, it is excellent work. But I think it's just a dead bird on a deer.

Shaman, by Kim Stanley Robinson

Incredible book about prehistoric life. Fiction but very well researched, very human. Really gives perspective on what life would have been like back then. Can’t recommend enough.

Tolkien talks about this as literally influencing his career. He chose to study language at least partly because of this thing. Of course then he wrote stories anyway, but there is an argument to be made that he never would have created middle earth if it wasn't for his need to put his created elvish into the context of a culture and a world

"The urge to compose his own tales came early, but Tolkien became sidetracked by an interest in the subtleties of language. In a letter to W.H. Auden in 1955 he wrote: I first tried to write a story when I was about seven. It was about a dragon. I remember nothing about it except a philological fact. My mother said nothing about the dragon, but pointed out that one could not say "A green great dragon," but had to say "a great green dragon." I wondered why, and still do. The fact that I remember this is possibly significant, as I do not think I ever tried to write a story again for many years, and was taken up with language."

"Fish don't feel pain" 🤣

"Here, biologist Victoria Braithwaite explores the question of fish pain and fish suffering, explaining what we now understand about fish behaviour, and examining the related ethical questions about how we should treat these animals. She asks why the question of pain in fish has not been raised earlier, indicating our prejudices and assumptions; and argues that the latest and growing scientific evidence would suggest that we should widen to fish the protection currently given to birds and mammals."

For the most part honeybees don't really require a suit at all.

I've even seen beekeepers take off their veil with properly managed 'Killer bees'.

Check out the book, Soul of an octopus for anyone that wants a similar experience with a bit more of a personal relationship with the Octopus.

People from the United States of America are especially welcome to tour and explore the natural beauty Pakistan has to offer. These areas are not only the most safest, but they also have one of the highest literacy rates in all of Pakistan. Do not believe what the media tells you that Pakistan is some sh*ithole in the desert. Now, I agree that SOME parts of the country are indeed troublesome, but then again no one in their right minds would want to go to those parts anyway, and foreigners aren't even allowed to travel to those parts either. Please do come to explore Pakistan's Northern Areas as well as Islamabad (basically a western metropolis) and Lahore (the cultural capital of South Asia/a bit like Istanbul of Turkey). All of these areas are incredibly safe and 1.75 million international tourists visited Pakistan last year.

Also Pakistan was named as the top travel destination by the British Backpacker's Society and has been called adventure travel's best kept secret by CNN

I believe this is it if you want to try. Not doing it myself so no promises that it works/isn't a virus haha.

Go down to where the Zoo is in CoS. The road splits at the zoo but if you stay right there is a road called "Old Stage Road". It continues through Cheyenne State Park and turns into Pikes National Forrest for 26 miles.

The road is dirt, has some challenging terrain and some of the best views I've seen driving back forestry roads. I did it in a $300 geo metro as a test so I know you can make it in an SUV/Truck but there are some challenging spots.

Go check this spot out. Desolate camping and shooting allowed if you're into that kind of thing.

Here is a higher res version of the same photo. The tiles in the sidewalk look to be about 1 foot across based on the various photos in the area, and they are slightly further back, so if you adjust for perspective a bit I'd still say the tree is at most 16 feet tall.

The population is increasing, though! In 1995 there were only 51 and that's tripled in the past 20 years :)

Below freezing, ice and snow everywhere, 12.4 miles round trip with an elevation gain of over 3000 feet. 6.2 miles of uphill fun lol

There was one section of the trail that was supposed to have switchbacks because the grade of the hill was so steep. Those switchbacks were buried in snow. We had a crawl and struggle up a 50-60 degree incline for about half a mile.

On any normal day it’s still hard, but more so for the length and elevation than the intensity of climbing.

Alltrails says its 10.9, but due to the snow it’s hard to say if we stayed on the proper trail or took longer detours in some areas because of it. We just followed the footprints and our fitness apps said 12.4ish miles by the time we were done.

Well, they may not be billionaires, but my wife and young son are trying to help vaquitas.

The figure in the appendix with a size comparison of different whales and dolphins is one of my favorites ever done on the subject, and, as a wildlife biologist myself, I've seen a lot. My professional opinion is that the situation is beyond dire if there are only 10 left, but some researchers believe the population size is actually higher because the species is extremely secretive, which makes it very hard to get accurate counts, especially when something is very rare. So here's to hoping there are enough of the shy little guys out there to have a fighting chance!

There are likely others in the Colombia Pacific region. As the second one near Lloró proves (as well as some others in the top 10 that are REALLY close) the issue is that depending on the exact spot of measurement you could get considerably more or less rain. Not even smaller areas are that consistent.

Background:

7 November 2016 - These frogs seem to have found a new way of transportation when they climbed on top of this saltwater crocodile. Yensen from Jakarta, Indonesia caught the once-in-a-lifetime moment while visiting Tangerang, Indonesia:

>The White's tree frogs, also known as dumpy tree frogs, clamber onto the crocodile one-by-one. Once the first frog gets aboard, the second follows suit.
>
>"It felt truly amazing to catch this moment on camera, it was so great to see," Yensen told Media Drum World. "I had to wait a long time to see the frogs climb on to the crocodile's back. The key was to stay still and remain patient."
>
>Yensen waited and watched as each of the five frogs climbed onto the crocodile. "I love being able to portray animal behavior in my pictures," Yensen shared.
>
>Saltwater crocodiles are the largest living species of crocodile on earth, however, this particular croc is on the small side. Even so, the frogs were risking their lives when getting so close to the crocodile. Baby saltwater crocodiles eat insects, small fish and even amphibians, according to National Geographic.

shrugs We have them here as large as 15 feet and weighing 700 pounds, but it doesn't really matter. They will still take a dog or a cat from one of the homes that back up to a bayou from time to time, have to call a game warden to get rid of them.

I’m going to say something you never see on the internet. You convinced me. Sorta. I did some research and I was mistaken about cats and the ecosystem. So I’ve taken some steps to limit the damage my boys are doing. Keeping them in altogether just wouldn’t work,as they’d be escaping half the time and making us miserable the other half. But I am feeding them more canned food )I.e. meat) to curb that natural instinct. I also got them cat bibshttps://www.amazon.com/CatBib-Bird-Saving-Large-Purple/dp/B07HL58348. Which I am calling the “bibs of shame”, and they do seem to be working. No birds since they’ve started wearing them.

I know you’d rather they were in all the time, but I wanted to let you know I have done something and you have saved some bird lives.

Make sure you’re washing your feet (especially toes) well every day. Get a little brush like these so you can get a good scrub between toes and under nails. Also highly recommend getting a cheap blow dryer to make sure your feet are truly dry after washing/before applying products.

Also, if you have thick calluses, the Ped Egg is super good at reducing them. Don’t remove them completely of course ˆˆ

Yes, you are right. In the context of our current economic model, it does that. But why is all this happening? What is the motive behind all of the things that are banned and don't work? MONEY, our economic model. If you remove the reason people do these bad things, you remove almost all these problems.

Hi /u/SDD7DNHS, have you read our community rules?

We have one main rule that the subreddit was founded upon: Every post title must start with the fire emoji and a space. 🔥

This works as a spam filter for those that do not read the rules and keeps our community high in quality.

If you don't think your post can justify using a fire emoji in the title, it probably isn't right to post here.

Try resubmitting your post with the fire emoji at the start your title.

You can copy and paste it from this comment or the sidebar if you're on desktop, and if you're using a phone your keyboard likely has it too!

Thanks, and stay lit

Here is your suggested fixed title:

A couple of years ago I installed an 8' x 8' slinding patio door and had a load of bird collisions and eventually put up the birdsaver strings.

This video and it's claims have been debunked by several sources

Quick Google search, here's a video of a moose nearly smashing someone's windshield in. The car was stationary. This moose is much smaller than the one in the original video. They don't fuck around.
