this guy is morbidly obese. I've read it's a common problem for pet raccoons and skunks.

@Zookeeper Gabe
do you have a spare baby warthog and macaque to liven up your zoo?

 

[dissectingaorticaneurysm]

any falconers here? Isn't this a bad idea to carry your eagle in public transport without its hood?

I have a few good friends that practice falconry and no, that is not a good idea.

For the first time ever, scientists placed alligator carcasses at the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico to see which bottom feeders might make a meal of the dead reptiles. The results came as a surprise even to the researchers.

Anyone watching "Our Planet" on Netflix with David Attenborough?

I'm one episode in and very good so far, although quite upsetting as well.

How are giant isopods a surprise? I thought they were a common sight at food falls.

They were shocked at how quickly they came. They expected it to take several days, or even weeks. They will be revisiting to see what other critters show up because the smaller ones take longer to get to it.

This post goes to proper respect and handling of animals.

A cassowary, a rare emu-like bird, attacks and kills Florida man, officials say

A cassowary, a giant bird with long claws on each foot, killed its owner after he fell in the backyard of his Gainesville, Florida, home, officials told CNN.

...
"The cassowary is rightfully considered the most dangerous bird in the world!" the zoo says. "Each 3-toed foot has a dagger-like claw on the inner toe that is up to 4 inches (10 centimeters) long! The cassowary can slice open any predator or potential threat with a single swift kick."

Oh and the obligatory...
