 🐾 Inaugural Pinned Post  🐾

Hey there! I’m Jonny and this is my blog. I have a bachelor’s in consbio and and master’s in bio and have been studying mammals since 2014 so I really like mammals, but I love all animals.

The contents are going to mostly be pictures of animals, hopefully at least one or two that you like. My personal favorites are all kinds of canines, hyenas, vesper/phyllostomid bats, domestic cats, cuttlefish, turkey vultures, salmonids, and jumping spiders. I also like video games, monsters, anthropomorphically persuaded animals, and horror podcasts a normal amount.

This blog is 18+. Not because there’s a lot of content that is mostly geared at adults, but because it might end up containing things geared at adults and I don’t want to worry about that.

Right off the bat, I want all you proship/paraphilia/zoophile/MAP freaks and weirdos to get the fuck away from this blog. I want nothing to do with you and you’re repugnant, thanks. People who believe in any kind of reverse discrimination (misandry, hetero/cisphobia, reverse racism, etc.) can also get lost. Same goes for any TERFs/radfems, bioessentialists, anti-vaxxers, and Zionists.

My blog frequently will have spiders, centipedes, insects, snakes, animal bones/taxidermy, and sometimes irl animal gore, so if any of that is an issue for you, I would recommend not following me. I would also not suggest you follow me if you hate certain species like wasps or mosquitoes and advocate for their extinction. This is because you are wrong, and also stupid.

I will tag everything as best I can as far as triggers go, and please don’t be afraid to ask for something to be tagged!

Somehow he still seems to enjoy basking in the sunlight and the quiet busyness of the birds and butterflies. They say necromancy is a dark art, but whoever reanimated the beast of the black swamp knew what they were doing.

inatungulates:

Five male Kafue lechwe stand and graze in a marsh, nearly belly-deep in dark water choked with grass. The lechwe have somewhat-scruffy red coats with white undersides and black patches on their shoulders. They all have long, ringed horns that sweep sharply backward at their bases, then sweep more gently outward. Amidst the marsh grass, there is an African jacana, a small wading bird with brown and white plumage with bright blue on the top of its head.ALT
