I always found it weird that the anti social solitary tiger has better table manners than social pack hunting lions.

[@christiancinnabars1402]

I assume it's because of one of the drawbacks of living in groups: food distribution. A tiger wouldn't have to worry about saving that much food since it's feeding only itself for every kill. A lion, on the other hand, always has to deal with many more mouths to feed and has to eventually know when to draw the line on rations; sometimes having to draw the line _for_ another lion.

[@errortryagainlater4240]

@@christiancinnabars1402 maybe it's also because tigers don't have _as many_ competitors for their kills who could realistically stand up to them, while lions are surrounded by scavengers (yeah I know they steal food too but still.)

Fun fact about the baboon-lion situation. The baboons know if the antelope see them not alarm call more than twice, they will stop trusting them. If that happens, the baboons are back on the menu. So, to keep this from happening, they still alarm call, just too late to help the antelope. So not only do they stay and watch the carnage left in the wake of their betrayal of this more silent prey pact, the antelope are left thinking that the baboons did try to warn them and are still trustable as lookouts.

The best thing about the black skin on polar bears is we have no idea why their skin is black. We used to think that like got through their fur and black skin helped then warm up, but we actually tested that and even though individual hairs are mostly transparent there is so many of them the light never reaches the bear skin. And in retrospect that was kinda silly anyway because the bears spend all winter hibernating so they wouldn't get the benefit from that anyway. So that black skin is just a mystery

@@pumpkinclark7704 so 1. no. like I said before, the sunlight is all reflected by the fur. while each individual hair is close to transparent, their fur is extremely thick, and all together reflect all the light away, leaving none to be absorbed. 2. this is the arctic. in the summer, the sun is directly over them 20 hours a day, so it actually gets pretty warm, while in the winter when it gets properly cold there is no sun at all. so even if they could absorb it through there skin, there is no light to absorb. 3. even if there was any light in the winter, and they could absorb it through their skin, they sleep all winter under the snow. so unless that sun light can not only pierce the ultra dense fur, not only pierce the multiple feet of snow they are under, but also pierce the very earth itself from the other side of the planet, that idea is stupid. not only that, but the animals they eat? seals and walruses? they don't have black skin. neither do arctic whales. that theory fails under the very bearest(rimshot) of scrutony. but it ius a commonly circulated myth, so I can't blame you for believing it. just maybe read my whole comment next time. a as to how they can survive the cold, they only need 2 things. floof. and fat.

I'm old enough to remember that, in non-scientific general language, "black" in "black panther" was a moot side of the term aside from the US political group. "Panther" was a general term applied to any great cat that was entirely black. Many people my age still use that term that way. A fantasy character, Drizzt, in a fantasy universe... his magical panther is a magical version of an entirely black Bengal tiger. That means, back in the day, if someone said "panther" that meant it was an entirely black great cat. The "Pink Panther" thing was a comedic break from that and it was on purpose... because no animals in nature can have pink fur.

Wait... Does the full moon thing apply to wolves too? That would explain where people came up with werewolves.

Wolves are pack hunters and will simply run their prey to death as they will travel for hundreds of miles for a kill, they seemingly become terminators that don't get tired

[@KryptoKn8]

@@evilformerlys4704 fun fact: your best chance to survive a wolf attack is to stand your ground. You're right, they're pack hunters... but they're also comparatively "pussies". They will avoid any risk at any moment, which is why you won't see them actually attack unless the prey is already trying to flee. Wolves would never attack something like a cow if the cow is standing its ground and attacking/defending. In general, most of the time the best way to thwart of most animals is to make yourself big and dangerous while doing very loud noises. Wolves are pretty and majestic, but they won't attack if there's even the slightest risk of injury. This does not apply to hyenas. Hyenas will rip you to shreds regardless of what you do, I genuinely believe your best bet is a fucking grenade and juggernaut armor XD

I would respond that the other one that was not black but spotted was also a panther. This confused a lot of people until I explained just like you did.

Either of the big two pantheras could do so without breaking a sweat ( as evidenced by how they 'handle' smaller pantheras ) and anything other then the snow leopard would still have better then even odds.

@@derekbates4316 I'm talking about brown/grizzly bears for one though even black and other smaller bears make the point. All face far more predation from tigers then cougars. Secondly fighting Jaguars doesn't mean it goes well for the cougar, they're going to on average be 25 pounds lighter then the Jag ( more if you account for lightening near the equator) thus better then even odds and moreso when canine length and bite strength is accounted for. Regardless you asked the question of 'who's going to stop the cougar ' and the answer is still easily the tiger (260 pound advantage) and lion ( 227 pound advantage ). The 141 pound cougar cannot stand up to that even slightly and even against the Jag is facing an uphill battle.

I expected the shafts of hair to be thicker due to their size, and part of my brain associates thicker strands with bristles rather than soft clouds.

But it was way softer than my cat's. Just like the first time I touched an alpaca, I expected her fur to feel like wool, but it was soooooo much softer--softer than down.

Anyway, we had a couple other dogs who were like 4-10 times her size and she was the leader of the pack. She would mark her territory wherever she went and she even grew a wierd really long tuft of hair on her belly right where a penis would be. So it literally looked like she had a penis, but it was just a thick tuft of fur on her belly. Great dog, but she deffinately had an overdose of testosterone.

I'm not sure how true this is cause it's been some years but the facts about the buffaloes reminds me of something I heard a long time ago. When researchers would do experiments on some buffaloes way back in the day the released buffaloes would attack certain kinds of people on sight with high aggression but left the natives alone. The reason they gave is because the people they attacked reminded them of the researchers and the painful experiments but the locals were hired to take care of them outside of those experiments. Don't quote me on that cause I don't know if it's truth or some shit they made up to scare tourists.
