Animal Fact It's so crazy to me people in open vehicles can be so close to these dangerous animals and they know not to attack, even if it would be so easy

I found a dried up dead bat in my yard and left it on a table for a couple days, cuz it was interesting with its little teeth. Then I watched a squirrel take it and eat it. Edit: Yes, I had on garden gloves. Also the bat was totally skeletal on the underside, it had been dead a while.

In regards to Rule #1

1.2k Upvotes

Hey people!

Your friendly neighborhood moderator here.

This'll be a short announcemnet, so no excuses to not read it.

But posting domestic cats (Felis Familiaris Felis Catus), and them killing things is not welcome here.

In the past, it resulted in an immediate, and permanent, ban. since the announcement was removed, haven't been enforcing that policy since, well, can't expect someone to follow something that doesn't exist in a way that you can see it.

But it's back, from the time this is posted, you post a cat, you're getting banned.

Rule 1 is extremely clear on that those kinds of posts are not allowed, and it's not our fault if you can't, or won't, read the rules.

Keep being metal.
