You’ve heard of venomous snakes, frogs, and even platypuses before, right? Well, what if I told you there are actually toxic BIRDS? In total there are 5 species (pictured below) known to be toxic to humans—making this an extremely rare phenomenon in birds!!

that’s likely a (either striped or Arizona) bark scorpion. They’re common in TX homes, but Arizona’s are far more venomous than striped’s (which it looks more like). I’m concerned tho that it’s maybe the start of an infestation (scorpions are notoriously difficult to exterminate)

We need to stop this slaughter to save whales, save our oceans, and ultimately save ourselves. These hunting ships are scheduled to go back out again in‼️JUNE‼️. Here’s prepared tweets and emails that you can send to the Icelandic embassy now to help: bit.ly/4354FF0

It's safe to say Mia is an Apple or Linux fan.. She really doesn't like Windows. An African grey parrot has a bite force ranging between 300-400 PSI, which can easily chew through wood and cause serious wounds that may require medical care 🩹

Thank you so much to everyone for their kind words. It seems after speaking to multiple vets and other cat owners that there is hope and options that I am looking into. I will do absolutely everything in my power to give this little guy the longest and best life possible
I found my best friend Doug on the side of a highway injured and scared 6 years ago. I took him home and he has become a part of my family and even my channel. Yesterday Doug was diagnosed with FIP, a terminal and untreatable disease. (Continued in replys)
