Tbh I find it fascinating that some people aren't really aware of how domestication works? Like the guys asking how sheep survive in the wild without a human to shear them. They don't, we made them that way.

A great thread on some more of the whacko stuff Colossal does outside of their fake "Dire Wolf" thing, specifically regarding the Red Wolf

[Wildlife Wire @wildlifewire]

Colossal’s new USFWS-backed deal to biobank ESA-protected species made headlines. While this may sound like positive action, it’s alarming for the critically endangered red wolf. Here’s why the partnership raises serious concerns for the species’ future🧵: https://t.co/QhbWpspyxH

@Llghtnlng_Blade I think putting Rillabook there is fair just cause in game he is *always* standing in front of those fuck ass drums and he looks stupid af. His official art here looks WAY better, but with the drums and the way he's stanced behind them he does look too humanoid in way?

‘Rain sounds’ being in the Irish Spotify Top 100… girl just open a fucking window

[Dr. Amelia R. Zietlow 🦎 @TyrantLzrdQueen]

a lot of hyper specific taxonomic speculation surrounding the half second footage of what will likely just be referred to as "the raptor"

[Conor Winkle 🇺🇦🇵🇸🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🗿🖖 @conorwinkle]

Once again, this cannot be emphasised enough. This is not made in Ireland anymore, it is owned by a Zionist company now.
Please buy Irish made alternatives that aren't soaked in blood, they are just as good.

Post has attracted climate change deniers in the quotes and that has to be like top 10 most embarrassing things to be in 2026, right?

@Oceaniz96 Fugen scamming the Guild so he can make child soldiers is such funny lore

[David @Freaky_Owl_]

@hannah_chapin I sometimes pronounce it Vi-vill-on cause in my head head it sounds like Vi-villain and I just found that funny for the cute butterfly who also happens to be Pokédex number 666

"The giant anteater, a highly dangerous animal that excels at defending itself, and the tapir, an easy prey item with no defenses". Or...is that really the case? Let's see what the scientific literature has to say on the matter.

@TheNicestSocks @SouthApe Which I should say is the same for most of the icons, the wolf is dogs, the leopard is cats, Weasels is all mustelids etc.

@TheNicestSocks @SouthApe The squirrel icon is representing Rodents as a whole

Oh hell nah, zoology illiterate folks are jumping oomf because they favor "interesting and extreme" misinformation more than actual education 😭

[AquaticFlapper🍉🐟🦖🦜🧜🏼‍♀️🧜🏾‍♂️(Mermaid Arc) @AquaticFlapper]

This is genuine animal abuse and harassment of a wild animal. Like legitimately he is handling that bird terribly as well. “Those women are complaining.” Jackshit because they are fucking right.

[Ireland's Trees & Mythology @Tree_Folklore]

I really do appreciate the sentiment behind this post but Northern Ireland (and Ireland as a whole...no politics intended here) is a biodiversity wasteland.

Rather than being "the best" we genuinely are one of the world's very worst.

Ireland's natural state is largely broadleaf forest and now well below 1% of Northern Ireland is native woodland.

The largest lake in the United Kingdom and Ireland is poisoned and dying due to our agricultural practices and local authorities continue to seek to destroy and suffocate each and every green space beneath a sports pitch.

Our baseline expectations for wildlife and wilderness are such that we think that lifeless barren hills are beautiful and when we see a wild living creature we are astounded.

This place is nothing to be proud of.

I'm tired of people not caring about animals like sharks, snakes and alligators because they aren't "cute". They are beautiful and amazing creatures, they barely attack humans and it also depends on the species. Please leave wild animals alone, don't shoot them.

ok i’m done being normal

irish is more phonetically consistent than english. there are 36 consonants and 10 vowels. you look at “saoirse” and shudder when if you took 30 mins to learn the ALPHABET you would get it

“absolute bullshit” = SKILL ISSUE!
