Who is Jefrey (with one F)?
He was found abandoned in some bushes filthy and covered in fleas late one night in mid-July 2024. He’s almost all grown up, and enjoys car rides, climbing trees, going to new places, and most of all, capybaras. Some believe him to be a goblin or gremlin. He was named after the Pixies song “Space (I Believe In)”.
Jefrey suffers from severe ear-ectile dysfunction.
Originally posted him here back in July 2024 seeking advice for potential health problems due to his folded ears, some /an/ons wanted more of him, and so now you’re stuck with him. ![Light-for-Euphorbia-milii[1]](https://i.4cdn.org/an/1742555809767618s.jpg)
Welcome to /plant/, the happy green place on this blue board, where growers, gardeners and horticulturists share their love for things that grow.

>What's The /an/lympics?
A single-elimination annual tournament involving 128 members of the biotic world. First started by /co/ in 2018, with /an/ adopting the formality in 2023; These contests usually last for 10 days each, and are presented in a meta context as if they were pageants with Yotsuba, /an/-tan and A Baker's Dozen of Crows in a Trench Coat helming as the judges. Anons produce supportive posts, drawings, vocaroos, greentexts, storytimes, rec guides, videos, or edits of the candidates they like in the running. Once all other 127 candidates have been eliminated, the remaining contestant is crowned that year's champion earning the title of "King of the Jungle" and is permanently retired from any future /an/lympic events. Looks pretty fucking scary and almost certainly accurate. Why are scalefags such babies? Man was put upon this Earth to manage it. We are stewards of the animals. They provide for us as they may. In return, we curate and provide for their needs.
some uses are terminal, others a sustainable yield, and some are reproductive.
Sheep are clearly the Triple Threat winner: Meat - Mutton, Hogget & Lamb. Fiber: yarn, fabric & felt. Dairy: Milk, Cream, Butter & Cheese.
discuss your choice in livestock & why. what do you have or what do you (think) you want?
Who is your right hand? your Indispensable assistant in flock/herd management? what is their style, training & temperament? They have been helpers to us for thousands of years and are really cute and can be quite affectionate. (: Neutering is animal cruelty. If you castrate something you claim to love you are a faggot.

Why is the Silk Moth's life so hellish? So first off, my dad walks my family's crazy german shepherd and my chihuahua (mine only). My chihuahua had to undergo surgery because his claw was broken in half after my dad walked him 2 weeks ago. An accident, I thought, surely not my dad's problem - can happen to anyone, right? Well, today my dog has a bruise under his lip today. Obvious red bruise and no hair.
Wtf is my dad doing. I legit forbade him from walking my dog in the future. What is the largest animal you could beat in a fight? i want some gritty and vulgar crude answers, it's what 4chan is best known for.

The axolotl is a species of salamander native to the lakes of Mexico City. Unlike its close relative, the tiger salamander, the axolotl does not undergo metamorphosis to venture on land. Instead, it remains in its aquatic form throughout its life.
Further, the axolotl is known for being able to regrow lost limbs, gills, and even part of its brain — all without scarring. The animal's extraordinary ability to regenerate has attracted the attention of scientists. This has arguably saved the species from extinction as virtually all of its original habitat has been destroyed, meaning that the vast majority of axolotls alive today are kept either in labs, or as pets. if all animals could talk, which one's would be the most interesting to converse with? Why do Marmots look so sensual and seductive? What the fuck is wrong with zoomers???

And we're taking your ice cream! Two weeks ago I noticed a gash on one of the legs of a stray cat I'm friendly with, maybe a nail or glass injured him. He was licking his wound for about a week, but now he doesn't anymore. The wound isn't healing, it's just a pit around half a centimetre deep, and it isn't covered by a scab, why is that? Do cats have poor blood supply to their legs such that wound healing is difficult for them there? Rules:

WHAT IS SPECULATIVE EVOLUTION?
Speculative evolution is the exploration and imagining of how life might evolve in the future or could have evolved in alternate pasts. It's a multimedia sci-fi genre that harnesses scientific principles to create detailed and plausible hypothetical creatures, ecosystems, and evolutionary histories.

Sometimes she lies upside down on my sleeve and bites it, sometimes she comes flying or climbs on it to bite and pull on my sleeve.
She bit into my hand a bit today, and I noticed her bites are super intense and hurt quite a bit, and don't feel playful at all. She has a budgie friend (male), but he's very timid, and she bosses him around quite a bit.
What am I dealing with? Is this the same kind of aggression that cats get if they're too into playing? She comes to me voluntarily, and she doesn't screech or flutter while she bites. Does anyone follow any seals in particular? Niko, Yo, Katsunori, Agu, Hiyori and Mizore are cuties but any seal is welcome! So colossal's paper about dire wolf ancestry dropped. Turns out their claim that dire wolves are actually much closer related to modern wolves is full of shit. Who'd have guessed it.
The dire wolf lineage is a hybrid mixture between Cerdocyonina and Canina, but the Canina portion is pre wolf/dhole divergence. On the other hand modern wolves and coyotes contain some dire wolf admixture, but that is dire wolf into modern wolf lineage introgression and not the reverse

>>4935686 - old thread By now all non-retarded people have definitively concluded that 100 men beat a gorilla. Let's come up with a new meme fight to keep the zoomers entertained. Was exploring a vacant house's backyard and I came across these, could these be some kind of afterbirth? I think it's from a bird but I have no clue. Am I off the mark for thinking that this is some birds afterbirth, or could this something entirely different like bird shit? Specifically, its imbecilic way of picking out terrible habitats to live and hunt in. It is known as "the world's grumpiest cat"1. This stupid nigger lives in the snow and can't even handle it. He gets snow on his paw and internally screams, "ouch, my paws." He shakes his paws, and the sound it makes alerts every single mouse in the entire field, and so he goes without dinner.
THIS EXACT PROCESS HAPPENS MOST OF THE TIME. Seriously, only 1 in 3 Pallas cat hunts are successful2. Just look at picrel, this is the face it makes after every possible meal has fled the scene.
Why do people treat this idiot like he's the apex predator of the arctic tundras when he's an unironic real life Tom from Tom & Jerry and he even looks like real life cartoon cat when he screws up (again picrel)

There is absolutely no logic in not considering Dimetrodon a reptile, but considering a pigeon one. The term "reptile" should be used solely as a morphological, paraphyletic definition — encompassing all amniotes except mammals and birds. While in a proper phylogenetic classification, the terms synapsids and sauropsids should be used instead.

Thus, everywhere throughout nature we observe conflict, struggle, and the alternation of victory; and in this we distinctly recognize the essential discord of the will with itself. Every degree of the objectification of the will contends with the others over matter, space, and time. The matter that endures must continually alter its form, insofar as, by the guiding thread of causality, mechanical, chemical, and organic appearances eagerly strive to emerge—and in so doing seize upon each other’s matter, for each seeks to manifest its own Idea. This conflict may be observed throughout all of nature; indeed, nature exists only by virtue of it: nam si non inesset in rebus contentio, unum omnia essent, ut ait Empedocles (“for if contention did not exist in things, all would be one,” as Empedocles says) Arist. Metaph. 211. Yet this conflict is merely the manifestation of the essential discord of the will with itself.
The clearest visibility of this universal struggle manifests precisely in the world of animals—which subsists upon the world of plants—where each animal becomes prey and nourishment for another. In other words, the matter in which one Idea reveals itself must be relinquished to make way for another, since each animal can only achieve its existence through the continuous suppression of another’s existence. Thus the Will-to-live continually drives its teeth into its own flesh, and in its various forms is its own sustenance, until, at last, the human species—by dominating all other species—comes to regard nature merely as an instrument for its use. Yet this very species, as we shall see in the fourth book of this work, exhibits within itself that struggle, that self-discord of the will, in the most clear and terrible way when man becomes the wolf of man: homo homini lupus.
Moreover, we recognize the same conflict—the same domination—even in the lowest degrees of the objectivity of the will.
