This is Dottie. She lives with dwarfism and multiple chronic conditions. Only weighs 4 pounds, but she's got a big personality and an even bigger fan club. Uses her platform to create awareness of her conditions and spread hope and joy for others like her. 14/10

NEED SOMEONE TO FILM AN ONLYFANS VID WITH ME:

You pretend to be a mover helping me get my things from one apartment to the other. I wear a tiny sundress and you don’t touch me you just move my things. This does not pay

[Nikita @nikitadumptruck]

Thinking about the time I went on a date with another hot femme and we both left the restaurant without paying cause we thought the other one paid the bill

Ngasha likes to strut around as though he is king of the jungle but should he put a foot out of line, the older matriarchs give him short shrift. Having been hand-raised in our care, this orphaned bull is now living wild but still pops back regularly to visit.

@JessicaPalmeri7 @KHannam338 I wonder if females prefer more complex or simple designs. Also, I wonder if males will brush away designs done by other males in order to increase their own reproductive success #Behav338

[Latorre @latorre_248]

@EvelynTaillie @KHannam338 This is super interesting! I wonder if they can manipulate their vibrations to seem larger than they actually are to either attract more females or ward off males to increase their own fitness #Behav338

[Latorre @latorre_248]

This is really interesting! I wonder how the diet of the opposing spider affects their decision to attack the ant-mimicking spider. If they have a diet consisting of mostly ants would the opposing spider be more likely to attack the ant mimicking individual? #Behav338

[Niaomi VanAlstine @NiaomiVanAlsti1]

6 #AnimBehav2021 Ant-mimics do seem to benefit from a lower incidence of attack. Whether it is a result of the spider’s appearance, behavior, or some other combination, further investigation is needed to understand the benefit that Batesian mimicry provides for these spiders.

[Latorre @latorre_248]

This study shows that females preferred males with territorial claims over the more “attractive” option so I wonder is the territories constitute a direct material benefit such as food or other resources that are desired and can benefit both the offspring and female #behav338

Given the way they move though the ocean, I’d assume them to be generalists since they may just eat what’s edible and they can get their hands on during their journeys

[Latorre @latorre_248]

These creatures are so amazing and make me wonder what kind of signaling they use to find each other in the vast ocean. This image shows two of them mating so we know it can be done. I’d assume some kind of chemical signal but maybe they stay at certain depths? #behav338

[Latorre @latorre_248]

Their clear shells may help them avoid predators or sneak up on prey. It’s just insane that a snail can survive and find a mate in the expansive ocean. This image was taken at Blackwater Dive off Palm Bead, FL at 60 ft.

Since Male Cubs reach sexual maturity at the age of 2, they are often kicked out of the pride or killed for the same reason

[Latorre @latorre_248]

Lions are interesting because of the female to male ratio of about 3:1 in most prides. When a new male takes over he usually kills the male Cubs in order to increase the fitness of their own genes and offspring but keep the females for reproductive purposes #behav338

[AWF @AWF_Official]

Lions are the only social big cat, with prides of up to 30 members, made up of related females, offspring and a small number of males. https://t.co/ZT7L0zj9Uf

Lima Lima is the perfect example an individual using more than 1 signaling technique for survival. She relies on scents (chemical signals) in order to alert her herd with a warning call (auditory signal) if there is a predator near by #behav338 @KHannam338

[Sheldrick Wildlife Trust @SheldrickTrust]

Lima Lima has been fondly dubbed the 'scout' by her Keepers. When she's not busy foraging, she has her trunk poised and raised to catch unfamiliar scents, ready to raise the alarm and alert the Keepers should she smell a wild interloper.

[Lesley Marshall Photography @LesleyAM13]

This photo of a smiley squirrel, taking a break from foraging for nuts amongst the leaves in the park yesterday, somehow just makes me feel happy when I look at it - so it's my entry to this week's
@Tony_Ginger's "HAPPY!" themed
#snapitsunday competition. ��😃

[WeRateDogs @dog_rates]

This is Maisy. She gets an additional birthday hat for each birthday, and she just turned six. 13/10 not sure how long this can continue

[Latorre @latorre_248]

Antipredator vocalizations are an auditory signal sent out predominantly by females. Since it is thought to deter predators and warn offspring, why don’t males also call out? Could it have to do with the involvement of males in the raising of offspring? #behav338 @KHannam338

[ASAB @asab_org]

Animal Behaviour, Oct 2020 📰 AD Burnett & @Squirreldoc found that Harris’ antelope squirrels uttering antipredator vocalizations were predominantly female. Antipredator vocalizations may serve to deter predators and warn offspring. https://t.co/wLx60987os
