this leucistic turkey vulture was spotted perched on a telephone pole in florida. animals with leucism produce a reduced amount of pigments, resulting in either an entirely ‘faded’ body or a ‘pied’ appearance. like albino animals, leucistic animals are particularly vulnerable to predators and harassment from their own species.

Slug is such a great word it’s perfect for the animal and for bullets and fake coins and lazy people and drinking and printing and moving slowly and URLs and alcohol. We should call even more things slug I think we’d all be happier. Slug World 2024.
People who genuinely ascribe a moral value to specific animals are so strange to me.
Like, if you're genuinely just joking I get it. I love centipedes, but I do also like to joke that they're made of hate, just because of personal experiences. But I am joking.
And they can actually be quite loving parents, they are themselves beautiful and fascinating creatures (toxicognaths are great).
Like, ticks aren't evil guys. They're just hungry.
Dolphins aren't evil, or at least not any more evil than we are. And we aren't evil either, just as a side note.
Mosquitos? Take a guess what I'm gonna say next.
Even the animal you hate most? It's not evil. It has a right to live.
Do you think bed bugs are rubbing their hands together, cackling about how they're gonna torment mankind next? Nah, they just wanna feed and fuck. Which is a mood honestly.
