      Yeah I didn't get support or anything in school and when I started high school at 15 my father left for the 2nd time in my life so I was depressed angry and didn't really care about grades all that much. I quit the football team because I was using it as an excuse to not be home with my father and I took up piano and golf for a slower pace in my life. I was basically depressed and I wore the same jacket every single day to school, I wore it until it had multiple holes in it and was literally becoming unraveled. During my senior year I was pulled into the counselors office and told if I failed a single class the rest of the school year I was not going to graduate. I had nobody to help me emotionally at all so I basically reverted back to my sadistic ways to make it through the year. I went from a 2.0 GPA to a 3.83 GPA and made it everyone's problem along the way. I was watching the animaniacs in math class and blasting music in English class and in piano I decided to flex on everything by leaning Beethoven. Art class was just art class though I was among the top 3 in a class of idiots and a pregnant girl. My art teacher didn't even look at my work when COVID started because he trusted me enough that he believed I did it and gave me an A automatically. I basically went wild and as soon as I graduated I stayed inside for a year gained 30 pounds and my life was put on hold as soon as I decided to live it up again. As of recently my cat is on the verge of dying my mother got COVID for 3 weeks and I had to take care of her and go to work ever single day and somehow find a way to balance all that with a social life. I basically broke down crying at the vet it took everything I had to hold back tears and when I got home I let my cat out she then proceeded to knock down a newly opened bag of cat food and dove in head first for a foot 5 minutes and I didn't have the heart to stop her I literally walked into the kitchen put on sad music and did the dishes while crying. All this and I'm only 20 I can't even drink the pain away.

Quite literally, they take in kids that have just aged out of the foster system, teach them to build their own small home on a plot of land, teach them how to get and keep jobs, teach them how to ride and work on motorcycles(if they desire), and generally all the things a normal mom or dad would teach them had they been lucky enough to have them.

Basically, mother devils can give birth to over 20 children in a single litter, but only has 4 nipples. As a result, only 4 of them actually survive, while the rest sort of just starve and die, or worse, become food for the 4 winners.

    After a few days, she took the two runts of the litter out of their home and into a cupboard. Presumably because she could not handle dealing with 6 entire needy furballs on her first try at this and would rather hope we never find them. She wanted to focus her attention on her 4 favourites
    When we noticed we gave her her kittens back and over time the runt of the litter became by far the biggest of them all and also the kindest and her favourite that hogged all the milk from the others grew up to be the smallest

    while the spotted hyena is top predator that hunts most of their food and live in large clans, striped and brown hyenas are much lower tier on the food chain. more like jackals. in fact, the main reason we used to believe spotted hyenas were scavengers is because we knew about brown hyenas much longer, and they do tend to eat dead things.

    So by the sounds of it, I'd bet the womb-colosseum thing doesn't apply to bonnetheads. Let me explain.
    In case you've never heard of them, bonnetheads are fun-sized hammerhead sharks which treat crab-filled patches of seaweed as their own personal salad bar. They'll take a mouthful of weeds and hopefully some crabs along with it, and after doing this for enough generations, they actually picked up the ability not to waste the weeds they gulp down hoping a crab was in it, and are the only sharks that can actually digest seaweed. Which scientists proved by marking certain atoms in seaweed to see if they ended up as part of the sharks' bodies, which as it turned out, they did.
    What makes me suspect they may not do the sibling-rivalry-turned hunger games thing is that when I was reading more about them, I came across an article in which scientists were concerned about the genetic diversity of the bonnethead populations. As it turned out, the females seemed to each only be reproducing with one male, rather than having multiple mates.
    Which means that it actually has happened that some marine biologists looked at a bunch of sharks and went, "Uh-oh, these hoes are loyal!"

      Fun fact about nose botflies: in Autumns when they are most desperate to lay their larvae, they can mistake other animals for moose, and if they come across humans, they are known to spray the larvae in human's eyes, where they often need to be removed surgically.

Well... the babies didn't make it, they were weak overall. I was shocked to see how she disregarded and never cared for them because she was actually a very caring mother. She would breastfeed their cups to the starvation, NEVER EVER let them leave her sight. When i take one of the babies she will be following me to death and never lose eye contact with her baby.

    @XIxCaptainKRulLT 2 года назад +24

    Y'know, there are two more good options I can add: Most fish (parents) and ladybug/bird larva.
    If you've ever had pet fish in kept in slightly warmer waters, one male to every three-four females (minimum), you'll most likely have eggs or live fry (Platies, Guppies and Mollies all give birth to live fish). Unless the tank has multiple small crevices, plants like Hairgrass (Dwarf or Long) or you move them to a smaller breeder tank, they'll most likely get eaten by their parents or fellow tankmates. If not the parents, the filter itself might suck them up if you don't have any prefilter media.
    That isn't the end of it either. These fish can lay anywhere from twenty to a hundred live fry, and cramping too many of them together can lead to infighting at roughly two-three weeks of age, killing off at least half of them. Easily fixed by giving them space, obviously, but it's still quite rough for them.
    The first of the Ladybug/bird (name depends on your country of origin) larvae to hatch will chew open the other eggs and eat their weakened siblings before they can even see daylight. Short and straight to the point, unlike the fish one (since I have more experience with fish).
    More positive/innocent tidbit: A bottom feeder known as a Corydoras Catfish is quite tame, almost entirely non-aggressive, and not known to eat other fry unless starved or upon accident, which is still quite rare. They'll commonly leave them alone, and won't even eat dead or dying fish.
    They're also freshwater fish that can survive in mildly brackish water if they were born and raised in it, or acclimated properly (still recommend keeping those levels close to the same parameters as their original enclosure). These are docile, mildly armored fish with durable skin/scales and the passivity of a blade of grass.
    To communicate, they seem to lie or the gravel/sand in a circle (or line) and just stare at one-another, occasionally moving their eyes in a quick downward motion. They don't do a whole lot, but they're cute little fish.

      @@squirlis1189 I think they're quite adorable. Look a bit like eels. A friend of my was actually wanting some for his tank, but he has a 20-gal and wouldn't be able to upgrade to a larger tank. He went for a gourami instead (it's a mildly planted community tank. Not my best scaping job, but he was on a fairly tight budget, so I did what I could with that).
