First Animal species of the day (303) :
Ball python

The ball python (Python regius), also called the royal python, is a python species native to West and Central Africa, where it lives in grasslands, shrublands and open forests. This nonvenomous constrictor is the smallest of the African pythons, growing to a maximum length of 182 cm (72 in).[2] The name "ball python" refers to its tendency to curl into a ball when stressed or frightened

The ball python is black, or albino and dark brown with light brown blotches on the back and sides. Its white or cream belly is scattered with black markings. It is a stocky snake with a relatively small head and smooth scales.[3] It reaches a maximum adult length of 182 cm (6 ft 0 in). Males typically measure eight to ten subcaudal scales, and females typically measure two to four subcaudal scales.[7] Females reach an average snout-to-vent length of 116.2 cm (45+3⁄4 in), a 44.3 mm (1+3⁄4 in) long jaw, an 8.7 cm (3+7⁄16 in) long tail and a maximum weight of 1.635 kg (3 lb 9.7 oz). Males are smaller with an average snout-to-vent length of 111.3 cm (43+13⁄16 in), a 43.6 mm (1+23⁄32 in) long jaw, an 8.6 cm (3+3⁄8 in) long tail and a maximum weight of 1.561 kg (3 lb 7.1 oz)

The ball python is native to west Sub Saharan Africa from Senegal through Cameroon to Sudan and Uganda.[1] It prefers grasslands, savannas, and sparsely wooded areas.

Ball pythons are typically nocturnal or crepuscular, meaning that they are active during dusk, dawn, and/or nighttime.[11] This species is known for its defense strategy that involves coiling into a tight ball when threatened, with its head and neck tucked away in the middle. This defense behavior is typically employed in lieu of biting, which makes this species easy for humans to handle and has contributed to their popularity as a pet

The diet of the ball python in the wild consists mostly of small mammals and birds. Young ball pythons of less than 70 cm (28 in) prey foremost on small birds. Ball pythons longer than 100 cm (39 in) prey foremost on small mammals. Males prey more frequently on birds, and females more frequently on mammals.[11] Rodents make up a large percentage of the diet; Gambian pouched rats, black rats, rufous-nosed rats, shaggy rats, and striped grass mice are among the species consumed

The ball python is listed as Near Threatened on the IUCN Red List; it experiences a high level of exploitation and the population is believed to be in decline in most of West Africa.[1] The ball python is primarily threatened by poaching for the international exotic pet trade. It is also hunted for its skin, meat and use in traditional medicine. Other threats include habitat loss as a result of intensified agriculture and pesticide use.[1] Rural hunters in Togo collect gravid females and egg clutches, which they sell to snake ranches. In 2019 alone, 58 interviewed hunters had collected 3,000 live ball pythons and 5,000 eggs

[wintry marlin]

Snake

[limber grove]

beeps :D

[modest isle]

Females are oviparous and lay three to 11 rather large, leathery eggs.[7] The eggs hatch after 55 to 60 days. Young male pythons reach sexual maturity at 11–18 months, and females at 20–36 months. Age is only one factor in determining sexual maturity and the ability to breed; weight is the second factor. Males breed at 600 g (21 oz) or more, but in captivity are often not bred until they are 800 g (28 oz), although in captivity, some males have been known to begin breeding at 300–400 g (11–14 oz). Females breed in the wild at weights as low as 800 g (28 oz) though 1,200 g (42 oz) or more in weight is most common; in captivity, breeders generally wait until they are no less than 1,500 g (53 oz). Parental care of the eggs ends once they hatch, and the female leaves the offspring to fend for themselves.

Second Animal species of the day (304) :
Green iguana

The green iguana (Iguana iguana), also known as the American iguana or the common green iguana, is a large, arboreal, mostly herbivorous species of lizard of the genus Iguana. Usually, this animal is simply called the iguana. The green iguana ranges over a large geographic area; it is native from southern Brazil and Paraguay as far north as Mexico.

A herbivore, it has adapted significantly with regard to locomotion and osmoregulation as a result of its diet. It grows to 1.7 m (5.6 ft) in length from head to tail, although a few specimens have grown more than 2 m (6.6 ft) with bodyweights upward of 20 lb (9.1 kg).
Commonly found in captivity as a pet due to its calm disposition and bright colors, it can be very demanding to care for properly. Space requirements and the need for special lighting and heat can prove challenging to the hobbyist.

Green iguanas are diurnal, arboreal, and are often found near water.[26][9] Agile climbers, Iguana iguana can fall up to 50 feet (15 m) and land unhurt (iguanas use their hind leg claws to clasp leaves and branches to break a fall).[9][27][28] During cold, wet weather, green iguanas prefer to stay on the ground for greater warmth.[14] When swimming, iguanas remain submerged, letting their legs hang limply against their sides. They propel through the water with powerful tail strokes.[14]
While they may often be found in trees, these animals are well-known burrowers. The size of their burrow can range from 0.3 to 2.4 metres (1 ft 0 in to 7 ft 10 in) deep, with a diameter of 10 to 20 centimetres (4 to 7+3⁄4 in).[29] They have been observed burrowing in canals, levees, and dikes and along seawalls in southern Florida. If individuals do not dig their own, they may even use gopher tortoise burrows or usurp those of the Florida burrowing owl.

The green iguana is a large lizard and is probably the largest species in the iguana family, though a few in the genus Cyclura may match or exceed it in weight.[30] Adults typically grow to 1.2 to 1.7 m (3.9 to 5.6 ft) in length from head to tail.[8] As in all iguanas, the tail comprises much of this length, and the snout-to-vent length of most green iguanas is 30 to 42 cm (12 to 17 in). A typical adult male weighs around 4 kg (8.8 lb) while the smaller adult female typically weighs 1.2 to 3 kg (2.6 to 6.6 lb).[31][better source needed] A few large males can reach or exceed 8 kg (18 lb) in weight and 2 m (6.6 ft) long.[32] Some specimens have even reportedly been measured at a body weight of greater than 9.1 kg (20 lb)

Despite their name, green iguanas occur in different colours and types. In southern countries of their range, such as Peru, green iguanas appear bluish in colour, with bold blue markings.[9] On islands such as Bonaire, Curaçao, Aruba, and Grenada, a green iguana's colour may vary from green to lavender, black, and even reddish brown.[8][9] Green iguanas from the western region of Costa Rica are red, and animals of the northern ranges, such as Mexico, appear orange.[8][9] Juvenile green iguanas from El Salvador are often bright blue, but lose this color as they get older

Male green iguanas have highly developed femoral pores on the underside of their thighs, which secrete a scent (females have femoral pores, but they are smaller in comparison to those of the males).[8] In addition, the dorsal spines that run along a green iguana's back are noticeably longer and thicker in males than they are in females, making the animals somewhat sexually dimorphic

[sullen merlin]

Saturday: amphibian
Sunday: Arachnids/crustaceans

I'd do somethign like this

Just a suggestion

[modest isle]

Even if we did this format we would still run out of the cool guys first :

• Mammals
• Birds
• Reptiles
  

Since they have fewer species

[sullen merlin]

True, but thats in like 3 years or so. No matter how u do it u will always run out on those before invertabrates

[modest isle]

True

[sullen merlin]

if u run out of modern day birds etc u can go for prehistoric ig

First Animal species of the day (305) :
Mediterranean black widow

Latrodectus tredecimguttatus, also known as the Mediterranean black widow[2] or the European black widow,[3] is a species in the genus Latrodectus of the widow spiders. It is commonly found throughout the Mediterranean region, ranging from southern Iberia to southwest and central Asia, hence the name.

Specimens from central Asia are also known by the binomial name Latrodectus lugubris; that name, however, is now considered improper, though it is still commonly found in the literature. Latrodectus tredecimguttatus was previously considered a subspecies of Latrodectus mactans

L. tredecimguttatus is black in color, similar to most other widow species, and is identified by the thirteen spots which are found on its dorsal abdomen (the species name is Latin for "with thirteen spots").

These spots are usually red in colour, but may also be yellow or orange. It is otherwise similar to other species in the genus Latrodectus. The Mediterranean widow primarily lives in steppes and other grasslands, and can be a significant problem in areas where grain is harvested by hand. The female of the species has a body length of about 7–15 mm (0.28–0.59 in), while the male is smaller and reaches 4–7 mm (0.16–0.28 in) at best.

Only the female spider's bite is dangerous (either for humans or cattle) as the male cannot penetrate the relatively thick epidermis.

[lone star]

SPIDERR.. no that’s not..

[modest isle]

Like all Latrodectus species, L. tredecimguttatus has a painful bite that is fatal in rare cases. They are not in close association with humans generally, although epidemics of bites have been reported.[5] There are many reports of Ukrainian farm workers receiving bites while working in the fields. The LD-50 of L. tredecimguttatus venom has been measured as 0.59 mg/kg,[6] and separately again as 0.59 mg/kg (with a confidence interval of 0.33–1.06

Second Animal species of the day (306) :
Atlantic horseshoe crab

The Atlantic horseshoe crab (Limulus polyphemus), also known as the American horseshoe crab, is a species of horseshoe crab, a kind of marine and brackish chelicerate arthropod.[1] It is found in the Gulf of Mexico and along the Atlantic coast of North America.[1] The main area of annual migration is Delaware Bay along the South Jersey Delaware Bayshore

Their eggs were eaten by Native Americans,[4] but today Atlantic horseshoe crabs are caught for use as fishing bait, in biomedicine (especially for Limulus amebocyte lysate) and science.[1] They play a major role in the local ecosystems, with their eggs providing an important food source for shorebirds, and the juveniles and adults being eaten by sea turtles

The other three extant (living) species in the family Limulidae are also called horseshoe crabs, but they are restricted to Asia.[5] Despite the name, horseshoe crabs are more closely related to arachnids like spiders and scorpions than they are to crabs or other crustaceans

The Atlantic horseshoe crab is the only extant (living) species of horseshoe crab native to the Americas, although there are other extinct species only known from fossil remains from this region. The other living species of horseshoe crab are restricted to Asia, but all are quite similar in form and behavior. The Asian species are :

Tachypleus tridentatus,
Tachypleus gigas
and Carcinoscorpius rotundicauda

Most Atlantic horseshoe crabs are found along the Atlantic East Coast of the United States, ranging from Maine to Florida. In the Gulf Coast of the United States, they are found in Florida, Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana.[1] Outside the United States, the only breeding population is in Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula, where it is found on the western, northern and eastern coasts

Spawning tends to occur in the intertidal zone and to be correlated with spring tides (the highest tides of the month).[1] The breeding season varies. Northern populations (all in the United States, except those in southern Florida) generally breed from the spring to the autumn, while southern populations (southern Florida and Yucatán Peninsula) breed year-round.

How many animals is that now Emryld...

Because I've sat back long enough watching you with your gecko 'business', your three birds, your tegu, your iguana, your dog, cat, several snakes, chameleons, monitor lizard, skink, now ducks who don't even have proper water or food...No one has that much time on their hands to properly give them attention, clean enclosures, socialization, etc. with THAT many animals...

It's extremely worrying (animals welfare, living conditions, etc.) and honestly looking like a hoarding issue at this point.

[full patrol]

I recommend you watch this video about raising ducklings.

That setup you have rn is not good for ducklings. Open water directly next to the food is asking for a unhygienic mess. Both in flat dishes is asking for extra cleaning as they can easily climb in and soil and spill both. Water dish is too shallow, they need to be able to submerge their bill up to their nose or they can't clean it and will be unable to breathe. Not sure what food you're giving them, but they need either specially formulated food for ducklings or you need to add yeast to the feed so they get proper niacin amounts.

I haven't ever kept ducks, but I just got over a hyperfixation on call ducks and how to raise and care for them.

This video has good information. Try to replicate what she has set up for their food and water station, it'll make your life easier and your ducklings cleaner and healthier.

GTA 6 confirmed for fall 2025

[full patrol]

Alright I'm convinced my hamster is dumb
She's got a little ramp I made her to get up to the platform for her food and water dishes. Platform is like "6 above the bedding so not too high, and it has a tall railing so she doesn't climb/jump off it.
So she uses the ramp every time she wants to go up, it's not steep at all. But for SOME REASON on her way down she can't just go to the bottom of the ramp nooo she needs to go halfway then climb over the edge and drop 3" into the bedding. Like what the heck just use the whole ramp why jump off halfway down????

[fleet cave]

Thrill seeker lol

[full patrol]

She crazy

I feel bad I just had to do the 2 month deep clean and remove all the dirty bedding. She made some serious tunnels in there. Was really cool to see how busy she had gotten. But I think she's enjoying building new tunnels I see a new hole getting open or closed for the last couple days x)

I'd usually have to deep clean more based on previous pet hamster, but she uses her wheel as a toilet so I just clean that every day. And when I did the deep clean there were like no potty spots anywhere! I honestly thought she must have a secret toilet but nope. All wheel. Very strange hamster

[fleet cave]

Maybe you can litter train her

[full patrol]

I don't mind her peeing on the wheel, it's basically the same idea. Just kinda gross that she runs and pees on it all night.
But I clean it every day so it's not disgusting

It's a big wheel too, the 10" (25cm) niteangel silent spinner. So one night of going potty on it doesn't get it too caked, just kinda gross to think about

(Turned on lights and made the picture brighter so you can see her on the wheel)

She's a feind on the wheel crazy fast

Where I live there's actually laws saying you can't have more than 4 of the same animal (excluding fish) unless you're a liscensed rescue/foster or rehab
Also not allowed to keep/raise chickens or ducks not as farm, pet, or emotional support animals
But it's a city so that makes sense

[fleet cave]

Same. But I guess the two fish outside count as two more

[azure oar]

about 36

[sullen merlin]

thats actually stupid dpending on the animal, like for chickens its better to have more than 4

ok i just read the rest of ur message lol

were i live u can have more than lets say 4 dogs but after that u pay taxes for it. Only for dogs and cats tho i think

[modest isle]

You should count the fish individually
Thats why i have around 50!!! Pets

Because i have around 40 Guppies 🐟
And the rest are the Cats 🐈

[full patrol]

Hm....lemme count...I've got....
9 amano shrimp
2 cherry shrimp
1 betta
1 comet goldfish
8 glowlight tetras
2 fathead minnows
3 balloon mollies
~10 corydoras
1 dog
1 hamster

So 38 "animals"

Good thing I just released my isopods back into the garden (originally from the garden)
Otherwise it'd be like 338+ "animals"

[full patrol]

Jokes aside, always know what you're getting into before getting a pet. This list covers the bare minimum shared by all animals.

• Upfront cost of 1x purchases like food/water dishes, toys/enrichment, enclosure/tank/house. This can easily be $100's-$1,000's for most animals that need more than 1 cubic foot of space. (12×12×12 inch box)
• Can you afford the vet bills if it gets sick or if it's an animal that needs routine visits and vaccines like dogs/cats
• Recurring costs like food, (vet if needed), bedding, destructable toys/enrichment
• Time commitment to not only clean but interact and properly socialize/train the animal
• Time commitment in how long the animal will live. Most pets aside from rodents, some fish, and tiny reptiles are a 10+ year commitment. Can you afford the time and money to properly house and care for this animal for potentially over a decade?

And always always ALWAYS do your proper research before getting any animal

First Animal species of the day (307) :
Opah / Moonfish

Lampris guttatus, commonly known as the opah, cravo, moonfish, kingfish, and Jerusalem haddock, is a large, colorful, deep-bodied pelagic lampriform fish belonging to the family Lampridae, which comprises the genus Lampris.

It is a pelagic fish with a worldwide distribution. While it is common to locations such as Hawaii[3] and west Africa, it remains uncommon in others, including the Mediterranean.[4] In the places where L. guttatus is prevalent, it is not a target of fishing, though it does represent an important commercial component of bycatch. It is common in restaurants in Hawaii. In Hawaiian longline fisheries, it is generally caught in deep nets targeting bigeye tuna. In 2005, the fish caught numbered 13,332. In areas where the fish is uncommon, such as the Mediterranean, its prevalence is increasing. Some researchers believe this a result of climate change

Lampris guttatus is a large discoid and deeply keeled fish with an attractive form and a conspicuous coloration. They can reach a maximum length of 2 m (6.6 ft) and a maximum weight of 270 kg (600 lb). The body is a deep steely blue grading to rosy on the belly, with white spots in irregular rows covering the flanks. Both the median and paired fins are a bright vermillion. Jaws are vermillion, too. The large eyes stand out as well, ringed with golden yellow. The body is covered in minute cycloid scales and its silvery, iridescent guanine coating is easily abraded.

This species is presumed to live out its entire life in the open ocean, at mesopelagic depths of 50–500 m (160–1,640 ft), with possible forays into the bathypelagic zone. Typically, it is found within water at 8 to 22 °C.[3] To better understand the depths L. guttatus inhabited in the tropical and temperate ocean waters, a study was performed, tagging them in the central North Pacific. Their location was found to be related to a temporal scale, inhabiting depths of 50–100 m during the night and 100–400 m during the day. The depths of the vertical habitat varied with local oceanogeographic conditions, though the patterns of deeper depths during the day is universal to the species.

The endothermy of Lampris guttatus gives them a major advantage at the depths where they live. Since they are relatively warm-blooded at those depths compared to the water around them, they can move more quickly to hunt prey. Most predators at such low depths do not have the energy to be able to move much and therefore must wait for prey to pass them

Size

OAR FISH ✅
Vs
OPAH FISH ✅

Now we did both species 👍🏼

Like many other large pelagic visual predators, such as swordfish and big-eye tuna, they exhibit vertical behavior.[further explanation needed] Based on those caught off the Hawaiian coast, squid and krill make up the bulk of their diet, though they also consume small fish. Those caught along the Patagonian Shelf also showed a narrow range of prey, the most common of which was the deepwater onychotenhid squid (Moroteuthis ingens)

Second Animal species of the day (308) :
Lemon Shark

The lemon shark (Negaprion brevirostris) is a species of shark from the family Carcharhinidae and is classified as a Vulnerable species by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature.[4] Lemon sharks can grow to 3.4 metres (11 ft) in length. They are often found in shallow subtropical waters and are known to inhabit and return to specific nursery sites for breeding. Often feeding at night, these sharks use electroreceptors to find their main source of prey, fish. Lemon sharks enjoy the many benefits of group living such as enhanced communication, courtship, predatory behavior, and protection. This species of shark gives birth to live young, and the females are polyandrous and have a biennial reproductive cycle.

Lemon sharks are not thought to be a large threat to humans; there have been 10 recorded bites, none of which were life-threatening. The lemon shark's life span is unknown, but the average shark is 25 to 30 years old.[5] The oldest recorded lemon shark in captivity died in 2023 at the age of 40 years.

The shark's yellow colouring serves as an excellent camouflage when swimming over the sandy seafloor in its coastal habitat.[8] The lemon shark commonly attains a length of 2.4 to 3.1 m (7.9 to 10.2 ft) and a weight up to 90 kg (200 lb) by adulthood, although sexual maturity is attained at 2.24 m (7.3 ft) in males and 2.4 m (7.9 ft) in females.[9] The maximum recorded length and weight is 3.43 m (11.3 ft) and 183.7 kg (405 lb), respectively.

Lemon sharks are found from New Jersey to southern Brazil in the tropical western Atlantic Ocean. They also live off the coast of west Africa in the southeastern Atlantic.[12] In addition, lemon sharks have been found in the eastern Pacific, from southern Baja California to Ecuador and in Cape Verde in Sal Island.[12] This species of shark often occupies the subtropical shallow waters of coral reefs, mangroves, enclosed bays, and river mouths; however, lemon sharks have also been found in the open ocean down to depths of 92 meters (301 feet.)[13] Although lemon sharks do swim up rivers, they never seem to travel very far into fresh water. They are found in open water primarily during migrations, and tend to stay along the continental and insular shelves for most of their lives

Many species of sharks, including the lemon shark, are known to actively prefer to be social and live in groups or loose aggregations.[23] A few benefits of group living are enhanced communication, courtship, predatory behavior, and protection. Group living and a preference for social interaction is thought to be important for the survival and success of juvenile lemon sharks

Lemon sharks are found in groups based on similar size. Passive sorting mechanisms such as its ontogenetic habitat shift have been postulated to contribute to the formation of groups organized based on size or sex

First Animal species of the day (309) :
Cane toad

The cane toad (Rhinella marina), also known as the giant neotropical toad or marine toad, is a large, terrestrial true toad native to South and mainland Central America, but which has been introduced to various islands throughout Oceania and the Caribbean, as well as Northern Australia. It is a member of the genus Rhinella, which includes many true toad species found throughout Central and South America, but it was formerly assigned to the genus Bufo.
Native range in blue 🔵

The cane toad has poison glands, and the tadpoles are highly toxic to most animals if ingested. Its toxic skin can kill many animals, both wild and domesticated, and cane toads are particularly dangerous to dogs. Because of its voracious appetite, the cane toad has been introduced to many regions of the Pacific and the Caribbean islands as a method of agricultural pest control. The common name of the species is derived from its use against the cane beetle (Dermolepida albohirtum), which damages sugar cane.

Considered the largest species in the Bufonidae,[22] the cane toad is very large;[23] the females are significantly longer than males,[24] reaching a typical length of 10–15 cm (4–6 in),[23] with a maximum of 24 cm (9.4 in).[25] Larger toads tend to be found in areas of lower population density.[26] They have a life expectancy of 10 to 15 years in the wild,[27] and can live considerably longer in captivity, with one specimen reportedly surviving for 35 years.

Typically, juvenile cane toads have smooth, dark skin, although some specimens have a red wash. Juveniles lack the adults' large parotoid glands, so they are usually less poisonous.[26] The tadpoles are small and uniformly black, and are bottom-dwellers, tending to form schools.[30] Tadpoles range from 10 to 25 mm (0.4 to 1.0 in) in length

The skin of the adult cane toad is toxic, as well as the enlarged parotoid glands behind the eyes, and other glands across its back. When the toad is threatened, its glands secrete a milky-white fluid known as bufotoxin.

The cane toad is native to the Americas, and its range stretches from the Rio Grande Valley in South Texas to the central Amazon and southeastern Peru, and some of the continental islands near Venezuela (such as Trinidad and Tobago).[69][70] This area encompasses both tropical and semiarid environments. The density of the cane toad is significantly lower within its native distribution than in places where it has been introduced. In South America, the density was recorded to be 20 adults per 100 m (110 yd) of shoreline, 1 to 2% of the density in Australia

Second Animal species of the day (310) :
Bullet ant

Paraponera clavata, commonly known as the bullet ant, is a species of ant named for its extremely painful sting. It inhabits humid lowland rainforests in Central and South America.

Worker ants are 18–30 mm (0.7–1.2 in) long[23] and resemble stout, reddish-black wingless wasps. Paraponera is predatory, and like all primitive poneromorphs, does not display polymorphism in the worker caste; the queen ant is not much larger than the workers.[24] They are not aggressive ants but are vicious when defending the nest, when they produce a stridulating sound and sting with ferocity

Paraponera is distributed throughout Central and South America, commonly found in the wet Neotropical realm. These ants are found in Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Panama from the north, and in Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, and Brazil from the south.[26] Colonies are found in lowland areas, at elevations ranging from sea level to 750 metres (2,461 ft). However, specimens have been collected at elevations of 1,500 metres (4,921 ft) in La Amistad International Park.

Colonies consist of several hundred individuals and are usually situated at the bases of trees. Workers forage arboreally for small arthropods and nectar in the area directly above the nest, often as far as the upper canopy; little foraging occurs on the forest floor. Nectar, carried between the mandibles, is the most common food taken back to the nest by foragers. Two studies in Costa Rica and on Barro Colorado Island (BCI) found about four bullet ant nests per hectare of forest. On BCI, the nests were found under 70 species of trees, six species of shrubs, two species of lianas, and one species of palm. Nests were most common beneath the canopies of Faramea occidentalis and Trichilia tuberculata, but these trees are also the most abundant in the forest

The ant is a predator of Greta oto, the glasswing butterfly. This butterfly attempts to combat P. clavata by producing chemical extracts during the larval stage that are unpalatable to these ants.

The bullet ant is a huge species of ants its also called the 24 ANT SINCE YOU CAN FEEL THE PAINFUL STING FOR 24 HOURS

Third Animal species of the day (311) :
Bigeye thresher

The bigeye thresher (Alopias superciliosus) is a species of thresher shark, family Alopiidae, found in temperate and tropical oceans worldwide. Like the other thresher sharks, nearly half its total length consists of the elongated upper lobe of the tail fin. Its common name comes from its enormous eyes, which are placed in keyhole-shaped sockets that allow them to be rotated upward

The large eyes of the bigeye thresher are adapted for hunting in low light conditions. It is one of the few sharks that conduct a diel vertical migration, staying in deep water during the day and moving into surface waters at night to feed. To protect its sensitive brain and eyes from the temperature changes accompanying these movements, the bigeye thresher has a vascular exchange system called the rete mirabile around those organs. This species feeds mainly on fish and squid, which are stunned via whip-like strikes of the long tail. Bigeye threshers are ovoviviparous, usually bearing litters of two pups. The embryos are oophagous and feed on ova produced by the mother while inside the uterus. This shark is caught by commercial fisheries across its range; the meat is not highly regarded but the skin, fins, and liver oil are valued.

The bigeye thresher has a virtually circumtropical distribution. In the western Atlantic Ocean, it has been reported from New York to Florida, the Caribbean, Venezuela, Tobago and southern Brazil. In the eastern Atlantic, it is known from Portugal, Madeira, Senegal, Guinea to Sierra Leone, Angola, and the Mediterranean Sea. In the western Indian Ocean, it occurs off South Africa, Madagascar, and the Arabian Sea. In the Pacific Ocean, it is known from southern Japan, Taiwan, New Caledonia, northwestern Australia, and New Zealand, and eastward to Hawaii, southern California, the Gulf of California, and west of the Galapagos Islands.[5] Analysis of mitochondrial DNA has shown that Atlantic and Indo-Pacific populations are somewhat genetically divergent from each other.

Bigeye threshers are usually found over the continental shelf and in the open sea, though they are occasionally encountered in shallow coastal waters. They occur in surface temperatures of 16–25 °C (61–77 °F), but have been tracked as far down as 723 m (2,372 ft), where the temperature is only 5 °C (41 °F).

The eyes of the bigeye thresher can measure up to 10 cm (3.9 in) across in adults. Each eye is taller than wide, with a bulbous upper portion. The orbits extend onto the dorsal surface of the head, allowing the eyes to orient upwards.[12] There are also a pair of distinctive lateral grooves that extend from above the eyes to over the gill slits, giving it a "helmet"-like appearance.[13] The snout is moderately long and bulbous, and there are no labial furrows at the corners of the mouth. The teeth are moderately large with a single, narrow cusp.[6] There are 19–24 teeth in the upper jaw and 20–24 teeth in the lower jaw; their shapes are similar in both jaws. There are large and small dermal denticles, with the smaller ones more numerous and interspersed amongst the larger ones. The smaller denticles taper to a point.

Bigeye thresher not to be confused with its 2 other sister species

3 species of thresher

The bigeye thresher has larger teeth than other threshers and feeds on a wider variety of prey. Known food items include schooling forage fish such as mackerel and herring, benthic fishes such as hake and whiting, larger pelagic fishes such as lancetfish and small billfish, squid such as lycoteuthids and ommastrephids, and possibly crab megalopae. They likely use their long tails to stun their prey prior to capture, as they are often found hooked by their tails on longlines and with the bait fish in their stomachs. The shape of their eye sockets give them binocular vision in an upward direction to better aim their strikes. In the Mediterranean, they are strongly associated with schools of frigate mackerel (Auxis rochei), suggesting that these sharks follow concentrations of their prey from place to place.

First Animal species of the day (312) :
Galápagos pink land iguana

Conolophus marthae, the Galápagos pink land iguana, is a species of lizard of the family Iguanidae. This critically endangered iguana is native only to the Wolf Volcano in northern Isabela Island of the Galápagos Islands (Ecuador).[2] It has a pink body with some dark stripes, prompting some to call it the pink iguana or the Galápagos rosy iguana. The species was first discovered in 1986 and was identified as a separate species, distinct from the Galápagos land iguana, early in 2009.

The species was first formally described in early 2009 as being distinct from the other land iguana populations. An initial genetic analysis of the pink subpopulation indicated that this particular species diverged from a common ancestor with C. subcristatus and C. pallidus some 5.7 million years past

The holotype of C. marthae, which was released after measurements and samples were taken, is an adult male that weighs 5 kg (11 lb), has a snout-vent length of 47 cm (19 in) and a tail length of 61.4 cm (24.2 in)

Individuals of the species first came into the public light in 1986 when park rangers spotted some pink lizards on the Wolf Volcano on Isabela Island, but a more thorough study by scientists only began in 2000.[7] This volcano encompasses the entire distribution of the species and the range covers only 25 km2 (10 sq mi), at altitudes between 600 and 1,700 m (2,000–5,600 ft)

Fewer than 200 mature individuals remain.[2] When first described, it was suggested that it should be considered a critically endangered species due to its tiny range and population

It has been proposed that a captive breeding program should be established for the Galápagos pink land iguana, similar to the successful program already established for some populations of the Galápagos land iguana.

Second Animal species of the day (313) :
hairy maggotblow fly

Chrysomya rufifacies is a species belonging to the blow fly family, Calliphoridae, and is most significant in the field of forensic entomology due to its use in establishing or altering post mortem intervals. The common name for the species is the hairy maggot blow fly, and it belongs to the genus Chrysomya, which is commonly referred to as the Old World screwworms. This genus includes other species such as Chrysomya putoria and Chrysomya bezziana, which are agents of myiasis. C. rufifacies prefers very warm weather and has a relatively short lifecycle. It is widely distributed geographically and prefers to colonize large carcasses over small ones. The species commonly has a greenish metallic appearance and is important medically, economically, and forensically.

The hairy maggot blow fly can be readily identified by examining for a shiny metallic blue-green color, a pale genal dilation, and a vestiture of the anterior thoracic spiracle that is pale in color. The mature adult is about 6–12 millimetres (0.24–0.47 in) in length

Knowledge of the lifecycle of C. rufifacies is crucial in determining the post mortem interval for applications related to medicocriminal entomology. Accurate developmental and successional data for the species can significantly aid in legal investigations. C. rufifacies is especially important in these determinations due to its highly predictable developmental time and low degree of variation in larval development. The lifecycle of C. rufifacies is characterized by holometabolous development, consisting of egg, larva, pupa, and adult stages. The entire lifecycle takes 190 to 598 hours depending on temperature

The female lays an average of 210 eggs and a recorded maximum of 368 eggs near fresh corpses and often during daylight hours

Chrysomya rufifacies can be found in a wide variety of human habitats. The fly is native to Australia and has been recently expanding greatly in distribution. Its wide distribution is due to natural dispersal and transportation through airplanes, boats, or automobiles. It occupies an altitudinal range from sea level to 1,250 m, 1,400 m, or 2,100 m

Nowadays he doesn't give a crap

The only structure he was careful with in this film was the Roman Colossuem. He saw it as a nice resting place and according to the novel it reminded him of his old home with that ancient civilization of people. That's why he likes it so much

Ew lol. The sad thing is that they weren't very good even with the mix pack, numbers, AND hacks to their advantage. No wonder they had to fight dirty!

[spice gyro]

Yeah I noticed that as well, it’s rather sad honestly.

[agile marten]

I just sucked solo until I got good XD

[spice gyro]

Yeah I’m in the same boat, no good at most combat, playing solo, getting real good at running away though lol

[agile marten]

Sometimes escape is the best way to Survive the Isle™️

Average July Temperatures globally
“ONLY JULY” not the entire year
@sullen merlin

In the 1900’s - 2010’s avrage earth temperature was 15 Celsius

But now in the near future we will reach 16 Celsius
.

Quaternary Period (Modern day)

16 Celsius

Late Cretaceous Period

21 Celsius

[lone star]

Dinosaurs..

[modest isle]

Earth was hot back them 🥵

[lone star]

Can you translate those temperatures into American

[modest isle]

Modern day : 16C = 60F
Late Cretaceous : 21C = 70F

Those are the yearly average temperatures differences

[lone star]

Woah! That’s hot!

[modest isle]

Trex lived in a much hotter earth 🌍🥵😩
late Cretaceous 66 Million years ago

[mortal echo]

Couple minutes later.

First Animal species of the day (314) :
Endler's livebearer

Poecilia wingei, known to aquarists as Endlers or Endler's livebearer, in the genus Poecilia, is a small fish native to the Paria Peninsula in Venezuela.[1] They are prolific breeders and often hybridize with guppies. These very colorful hybrids are the easiest to find being offered in pet-shops, typically under the name Endler's guppy.

Extinct in the wild

Poecilia wingei is a very colorful guppy species, similar to the fancy guppy often found in pet shops. The species was first collected from Laguna de Patos in Venezuela by Franklyn F. Bond in 1937, and rediscovered by Dr. John Endler in 1975. The latter were the first examples of this fish to make it to the aquarium trade. More have been collected since then, notably by Armando Pou, to expand the captive breeding stock. The original Laguna de Patos population is threatened by runoff from a municipal garbage dump. Though it is rare in pet shops, this species is seen occasionally in the aquaria of enthusiasts.

Though Poecilia wingei are hardy and undemanding as far as survival goes, proper aquascaping, diet, water parameters, tank mates, along with many other factors such as male to female ratios will determine the strength and appearance of a line.

The colors of Endler's livebearer males are very intense, especially the black, orange, and metallic green colors. Their natural patterns are highly variable, though many display a double sword tail. Breeders have developed numerous lines displaying specific patterns and colors, such as red chest, black bar, peacock, yellow sword, etc.
They are prolific breeders like their guppy relatives. They give birth to live young approximately every 23 days. Fry "drops" can range in size from one to 30 babies (or possibly more, depending on several variables, including the age and size of the mother). Their first few hours of life will primarily be spent on the bottom of the tank, where they consume their yolk sacs. At this time they are most vulnerable to predators, including their own mothers and other Endler females (males seem less interested in cannibalism).

Poecilia wingei from the Cumana region were originally known as Endler's guppy. Endler's livebearer, originally discovered in 1975 by John Endler and are found in Laguna Patos and in the lagoon's connected streams and canals, was actually a micropoecilia species that is believed to be extinct. In 2009 the Schories et al. publication[2] broadened the definition of P. Wingei to include Endler's livebearer. Most P. Wingei from the Cumana region found in the hobby today are descended from those collected by Armando Pau and were line bred and distributed to hobbyists by Adrian Hernandez (AdrianHD)

The first population of Poecilia to be given the name Poecilia wingei was discovered in 2005 in the Campoma region of Venezuela by Fred Poeser and Michael Kempkes.[4] This population of P. wingei can be found in Laguna Campoma and in the lagoon's connected streams.

Endlers not to be confused with their cousins the guppies
