Scientists on BC’s coast caught a wolf pulling a rope to get fish from crab traps set by the Heiltsuk Nation to control invasive green crabs. This may be the first wild wolf to show multi-step “string pulling” behavior, highlighting their intelligence & adaptability: www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

Wild, adorable, and smarter, of course, than given credit for. They're teaching each other how to pull the traps. 😘 Open article for short video.

Looks like the article has been updated. Still don’t love it, why taint your brand at all? No one needs user generated content for a single player campaign to begin with. Why are they shootings themselves in the foot!?

If you're THAT desperate for furry game, remember that there's tons of indie furry devs out there who are making them with love and passion. Don't feed the Corporation Slop.

Nothing brings the comfort of autumn like a fall feast! And our Pterodactylus aren't missing the party. We offered our last pumpkins at the zoo filled with bugs and fish, and the winged reptiles balance their weight and challenge themselves for a treat. 🐟🧠 ##ArtemisPaleozoo

Set up some trail cams in the fields. As long as the batteries dont die in the cold, hoping that there will be something interesting when I check them in a few days time.

This is supercool, a real-world validation of the Belyayev Russian Fox experiments. But also the raccoons at my house seem to be getting more and more thuggish, so I dunno. www.scientificamerican.com/article/racc...

My mum has been making needle felted mice for a few years and enjoys challenging herself with new themes and ideas. She's just set up her first exhibition at the stately home she volunteers at, with a family of period mice. Incredible.

Moonwych has been funded! Still a couple of days to join in an help it his a stretch goal or two. gamefound.com/en/projects/...

Might look at somewhere a little quieter to feed the crows when I walk to uni, the ones through more popular parts of the park can be a little pushy. While most bounced along to keep pace ask I chucked the occasional handful of peanuts, one lightly swooped me. Not behaviour to encourage.

I might be a little biased as some old friends are behind this, but this crowdfunded #ttrpg does look rather interesting. Moonwych blends #anthropomorphic and Celtic themes with a narrative system. It's pretty close to it's funding target with a few days to go gamefound.com/en/projects/...

Next term's timetable has been released, the course is jumping from three condensed days +online to 4 +online. With a 1.5 hour commute each way I'm giving serious thoughts to finding somewhere to rent in Cardiff. It's less the cost, more the time the commute eats up.

I worked very hard on this

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have developed a new mRNA vaccine that has been shown to suppress abnormal blood vessel growth in the retina, offering hope to MILLIONS of patients with age-related vision loss. The vaccine triggered strong antibody responses that REDUCED retinal damage by UP TO 85%.

A productive morning: gave the Brompton a wash and then swapped out the knobbly stock tyres and tubes for Continental Contact Urban and Turbolito TPU inner tubes (easier rolling, lighter, more puncture resistant). Chain drying after its ultrasonic bath in degreaser prior to waxing after some tea.

An observation on college students, from the father of one: 1. Sleep during daylight, come out at night. 2. Siphon off your vital resources (money, food, etc.) 3. Repelled by running water. 4. If you let one in your house, you're powerless against them. 🧛

ICE Agent, 7-Year-Old Both Wearing Same ‘Military Commando’ Halloween Costume

The study was started in 2006. It wouldn't be until *2023* that no crows scolded wearers of the ogre mask walking around campus. SEVENTEEN YEARS. The lifespan of a wild crow? 7-10 years. It's possible some of the crows observed the behavior of their friends and LEARNED the response.

Have you heard that crows can recognize human faces... and that they hold a grudge, maybe for years? Ever wonder how we can *know* that? The answer: Halloween costumes 🎃 & some innovative UW scientists working over decades, led by John Marzluff, co-author of "In the Company of Crows and Ravens".

On Halloween I'm doing a liveread of @tkingfisher.com's WHAT FEASTS AT NIGHT. This is the second novella in the Sworn Soldiers series and came out in 2024. Mute or unfollow if you don't want spoilers or anything to do with the fungus among us. #Halloween #horror #BookSky

can't blame trans people and immigrants for the "well running dry" if the public knows there's a five billion dollar backup well designed for exactly this situation

i hate to be that bitch, but my sources are telling me this early voting data has gotten Zohran's people rightly spooked and y'all better stop assuming this one's in the bag. GOTV

Do not be a doomer about this. Just call your New York friends and remind them to vote, and tell them to do the same. He is more popular and will win with good turnout.

'So keep fighting for freedom & justice, beloveds, but don't forget to have fun doin' it. Be outrageous... rejoice in all the oddities that freedom can produce.

After putting a few scratches in the paintwork of the Brompton rack, I spent the evening learning how to remove it and the rear wheel. A bit of a faff even with a bike stand, though at least I know how to do it now. Will have to look into inner tube sealants to avoid fix a puncture on the road.

Starlings are one of Britain's most beautiful birds. With the right light and up close, the colours are amazing. Very underrated! #ukwildlife #birds #birdphotography #photography #wildlifephotography

I need to learn how to set up derailleur gears. When the Brompton arrived both the gears and brakes needed adjusting. I thought I'd fixed the gears by just playing about with the barrel adjuster on the lever, but when cycling this morning they were clattering. Fortunately there are some good guides.
