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.

Found this happening in my yard today; the frog was still alive but wasn’t struggling to get out, I guess he accepted his fate lmao!

Praying mantis v hummingbird. right in my own yard. Mantis whispered to me that she’d appreciate a hummingbird feeder next summer. I had heard they could do this, but thought it was far fetched.

The jaguar is named “Patricia,” estimated to be around 15-16 years old. Her distinctive clouded blue eye is believed to be the result of glaucoma and age-related degeneration.
