These Animals Mourning The Death Of Their Loved Ones Will Make You Rethink Everything

April 21, 2021 Leave a Comment

When it comes to animal feelings, we tend to think of them exactly as we humans are or on the other end of the spectrum as unthinking, unfeeling beasts put here for our enjoyment. Every animal is unique in its own way and thinks a little bit differently, but what is clear is that many animals are able to feel complete emotions. According to an article in Psychology Today:

“Grief itself is something of a mystery, for there doesn’t seem to be any obvious adaptive value to it in an evolutionary sense. It does not appear to increase an individual’s reproductive success. Whatever its value is, grief is the price of commitment, that wellspring of both happiness and sorrow.”

5 Reasons Why You Should Adopt A Pet

April 16, 2021 Leave a Comment

1. If you adopt, you’ll save a life

Around 2.7 million adoptable dogs and cats are euthanized each year in the United States simply because too many people give up their pets, and too few people adopt from shelters.

Because there is limited space at shelters, staff members sometimes need to make very hard decisions to euthanize animals who haven’t been adopted.

The number of euthanized animals could be reduced dramatically if more people adopted pets instead of buying them.

By adopting from a private humane society or animal shelter, rescue group, or the local animal-control agency, you’ll help save the lives of two animals—the pet you adopt and a homeless animal somewhere who can be rescued because of space you helped free up.

April 9, 2021 Leave a Comment

Ligers and mules are old news. They’re also no where near as exciting – one is the mix of two wild species, the other is the mix of two domestic species. Jackal-dog hybrids mix both wild and domesticated species. This mix of backgrounds produces cubs that grow into a beautiful blend of both parents.

Also sometimes referred to as a jaguon, the jaglion is one of many portmanteaus used to define hybrid species of animals. In this case, it’s the blend of two big cats: a lion and a jaguar. Both belonging to the genus Panthera, their genetics aren’t too far off. It’s not surprising that they’re able to mate, but they are extremely rare.
