Happy National Coffee Day☕🐳❤️

Whale p**p: It’s the sh*%! As whales feed on krill and small fish, they accumulate vital nutrients such as iron and nitrogen. When excreted, these nutrients are released back into the water, where they fertilize phytoplankton—the microscopic plants forming the foundation of marine food webs. This nutrient recycling stimulates plankton growth and, in turn, supports the entire ocean ecosystem. In many regions, whale p**p contributes to nearly 50% of phytoplankton production, underscoring the critical role whales play in maintaining the balance and productivity of our oceans.

🔥This was bound to happen. NEW BONUS. Catfish have a unique organ called the Weberian apparatus—a chain of tiny bones that links their swim bladder to their ear. The swim bladder acts like a stethoscope by picking up vibrations, and then the bones carry the signals to the ear, giving catfish super-sensitive hearing. This doesn’t just help them find food or avoid danger—it also lets them “talk” to each other. By vibrating their swim bladder or rubbing their fins together, catfish can communicate with unique grunts and clicks, turning a seemingly ordinary pond into a place where anyone can be catfished.

🔥Happy September 21st!🐹❤️🐹 Male mice don’t just squeak—they belt out ultrasonic love songs that are surprisingly sophisticated, full of pitch changes, rhythm, and repeating motifs that can rival birdsongs. Each male has his own signature style, and the ladies often prefer the suitors with the most elaborate tunes. These serenades also have a second purpose, doubling as long-distance communication with males adjusting their songs depending on how close a female is. This rare glimpse into the secret serenades of mice shows us that the natural world is often richer than what we can hear or see, full of messages meant for other creatures.

🔥🍆NEW bonus in comments! They’re not called "banana" slugs for nothing. It’s their color. Wink-wink. These gargantuan gastropods are among the largest slugs in the world, reaching lengths of up to 10 inches (25 cm), and a banana slug’s er****on often rivals this length. But that’s not all! Like nearly all slugs and snails they’re hermaphrodites, meaning they have both male and female reproductive parts. And while self fertilization is possible, mutual in*******se between two slugs is more common and successful (and fun, I’m guessing?) "Bartender, two margaritas. NO SALT!”

🔥Let's make black cats the new big butts🐈‍⬛❤️ A study of nearly 8,000 shelter cats found black cats had the highest euthanasia rate—74.6%—and the lowest adoption rate—just 10%—of any coat color. In other words three out of four never left the shelter alive, and only one in ten found a home. Please consider adopting one of these wonderful companions and spread the truth: black cats are every bit as worthy of love as any other cat. Share if you like black cats and you cannot lie🐈‍⬛❤️

🔥NEW Bonus in comments to celebrate that it's Adopt a Less-Adoptable Pet Week !❤️🐶 Dogs like Max the bulldog often end up in shelters for reasons beyond their control: perhaps a loving owner passes away, can no longer care for them, or has to move somewhere pets aren’t allowed. Sadly, older pets and those with special needs face much lower adoption rates than puppies and kittens. But here’s the truth: they’re just as worthy of our love and affection as any pet—and are willing to be anything for us, as long as we love them back. Choosing a “less-adoptable” pet means choosing gratitude, joy, and second chances. So if you can, please foster, adopt, or simply spread the word about this issue. These overlooked pets are ready to give their whole heart not just this week, but every week they have.

🦈She's like grandma x 4🙂 🔥New Comic! Greenland sharks hold the record as the longest-living vertebrates on Earth, with lifespans that can stretch for centuries. Radiocarbon dating of their eye tissue suggests they routinely live at least 250 years, and some individuals may reach 500 years or more! This slow pace of life shows up in nearly every part of their biology: they grow less than an inch per year (but eventually reach over 20 feet long), don’t hit sexual maturity until around 150, and spend their days gliding through the frigid waters of the North Atlantic at about one mile per hour. Victoria’s incredible longevity is a reminder of how life in the deep ocean unfolds on timescales far beyond our own—and how she definitely still calls Asian people “Oriental”
