must there be a title

my watery friend... are you too brushed with the pattern of the dappled light...?

ID: two pairs of photos. the first photo is a blue-grey seal with a dappled pattern on its back consisting of pale outlines of round shapes. it is paired with a photo of sunlight on water, creating similar round white-ringed shapes. the third photo is of a baby deer curled up on the ground, with small white spots on its brown back. it is paired with a photo of a dirt path through a forest with many small spots of sunlight. end ID.

Unmute!

this seems like something that would legit happen in an abandoned fjord in Norway where the border between humans and the old gods is thin.

ma'am its clear that this seal is a christian

[video description: a seal lying on a beach with its head resting on the edge of the grass. As the camera approaches, the seal opens its mouth, presumably to make seal sounds, but instead of seal sounds the videographer has edited in the sounds of a men’s choir singing etherial music]

He’s not catholic that’s the Halo theme. He is a gamer smh

OBSESSED with the fact that the halo soundtrack slaps so hard people thought it was legit a Catholic choir hymn.

And, of course, there are no religious themes or symbolism whatsoever in a game called “Halo” involving a group of theocrats called “the Covenant” and a mass-extinction force called “the Flood”.

[Image 1: black background. On the left is the blue text "Seal has become Christian", along with a blue cross. On the right is a still from the video, showing the seal.

Image 2: same as the previous, except "Christian" has been covered in green, with green chicken-scratch handwriting above it, that reads "Gamer". And "You don't see this" written over the cross. And a green gamer headset drawn on the seal.

End description.]

He’s coming to boop you

I think it’s incredible how seals experience the world.

Many of the deep-diving seals can go blind during their lifetime and live just fine.

Round whiskers flap around in the water and create their own turbulence, but the specific whisker shape they have cancels turbulence, so they can pinpoint trails of turbulence from prey. Other places to see my posts: INSTAGRAM / FACEBOOK / ETSY / KICKSTARTER

having now worked directly with wild seals I need you all to know they are some of the most bastardous creatures in the entire animal kingdom. we’ve all been so wrong. they look cute and fat but they are so fast and they have SO many teeth and they know how to scream and they aren’t afraid to do it

don’t get me wrong I love them deeply. They’re amazing animals. But we’ve been calling them stuff like “sea puppers” when in fact they’re more like if a cat weighed 300 kilos and had the intelligence of a toddler & the morals of a seagull

reblog this post with a cool animal species lets make a wholesome thread

ok ill give a headstart:

i really like leopard seals 

axolotls are p rad

I LOVE THOSE

potoos look like muppets and i ove tem

here’s a quokka it’s like someone decided to splice together a wallaby and a teddy bear they literally always look like a benevolent cartoon

i don’t think you can get more wholesome than that adorable lil seed-eating smiley face. they’re not even like dolphins, cute on the outside and evil on the inside. they’re herbivores about the size of a cat. there is nothing wrong with them. 

The Springhaas, or “irl pikachu” as it is sometimes known, is basically a rat shaped like a bunny abruptly caught in the middle of trying to evolve into a kangaroo. This is why they tend to look startled.

This is a dik dik. They are tiny antelopes from southern and eastern Africa–seriously so smol. With teeny hooves and teeny horns and big soulful eyes. And the name is fun to say. It comes from the alarm call that the females make. They live together in monogamous pairs. 

Long Eared Jerboa

The adorable mash-up of a hamster, bunny, and kangaroo. Whiskers with no end, ears that put a fennec to shame, and adorability beyond measure!

bringing this back on your dashes

a sichuan takin bull and his daughter

often the color of donald trump’s hair and looking like a cross between a bison and a guinea pig, the takin is actually a bloody big goat-antelope. they have splendid noses, a natural smile, and share their habitat with pandas. which should be good enough for anyone.

This is an okapi. They are related to giraffe, can lick their own eyeballs and kind of always look like you just asked them for a ride to the airport but look at those ears and the little striped legs ~(*^*)~

Chambered nautilus! A living fossil! I also love axolotl though.

Red pandas!

Fennec foxes!!

I love all of these!

Capybaras! They’re the largest cavy species,(cavies are animals like guinea pigs) They’re BASICALLY a giant golden retriever in the skin of  guinea pig.

MANATEES

Originally posted by lovefloridauk

They’re just big lumps that float around the sea. They’re non-aggressive, non-territorial herbivores that spend most of their time sleeping or eating, or they might be socializing with other manatees or investigating interesting objects.

Best of all, as of this year they are no longer endangered!!

Maine coons!! So soft and friendly!!!

Look at these babies!!!

Majestic af!!! 

MANED WOLF. Basically what a fox would look like if it was a supermodel.

Favourite post.

@geekwiththeglasses

Tawny Frogmouth “Owl” (not really an owl). I love these angry logs. Near my old house I used to be able to see them sleeping during the day (hence not an owl, who sleep in hollows), and they’d shoot me this intense rage-filled glare if I woke them. 

Coati! They are native to my country of Panama and they are basically raccon, possum, civet, meerkat hyrbid aka an animal straight outta Avatar the Last Airbended

They come in blonde and red variations too :)

This smol egg is called a pika

This is a baby South American Tapirs or Tapirus terrestris are unique for their stripes. It is also called Brazilian Tapir and is the second largest land mammal in South America next to the Baird’s Tapir.

Here’s a full grown one with it’s baby for reference.

And then there is the Malayan (or Asian) Tapir and it looks like a panda that mated with an anteater.

Pangolins, or as I like to call them, Spikier Armadillos.

Dragon headed caterpillars! :D

MANTA RAY

Bearded Dragons.

Cornsnakes!!

Kiwi bird! Running potatoes

Cacomixtle.

Fluffy tail, long ears, beautiful eyes, looks like a cat but is not a cat.

Look at this beautiful flower:

Malabar giant squirrels! (Also known as Indian giant squirrels) They’re purple and cream and are the size of a small cat!

The platypus!

This good friend is a horseshoe crab!! They’ve been around for 630 million years (even older than the dinosaurs!!) and have 10 eyes!! They are very good and completely harmless to people and have blue blood very important in medical research!! I love them so so so much!!!

And this little honey is a swell shark!! They’re a species of catshark and when they get scared they bite their tail and suck in water to make themselves look bigger!!

Absolutely chungy!! So big!! So talented!!!

Not enough reptile or bat love here so you get one of both!

Thorny Devil

Grey-headed flying fox

Bintarongs! they look like a cross between cats and bears and supposedly they smell of popcorn. 

sea dragons aka sentient seaweed
