  • It's been a year since I made the HUUGE spring ecosphere in the 10 liter jar. The closed ecosystem has proven to be extremely successful over the past year. It contains a lot of different species of animals: bladder snails, aquatic isopods, daphnia, hydra, copepods, ostracods, planaria and loads more. In this one year update I explain what has happened the past twelve months and what the ecosphere looks like now.
    Enjoy!

      Honestly humans are just the most adorable animal in the world, we had to fundamentally change everything we thought we knew to survive, had to create tools, math, and science in order to thrive, developed ways to bend nature itself to our will, but
      We still offered food to starving wolves during the cold winters
      A lot of us cry when our tiny robot helpers get scared during a thunderstorm
      We help take care of tiny furry animals just because, when every other animal wants to survive, we want to give survival to those that may have trouble attaining it; cats and dogs with only three legs, critters like that
      We have entire companies, giant groups of humans in a massive network of resources, purely to give our critters the food they prefer
      Humans are just absolutely adorable really

      The body of the oldest homo sapiens which was found was about 315 000 years old, my theory is that during one of the natural disasters which happened on earth like for example a huge volcanic disaster only one group of pre-humans survived in a deep cave with very small amount of individuals and during that period their species only survived by practising incest, incest usually increases the chances for disability in a species but also increasing the overall intelligence of a species, by living in a cave they would have had access mostly only to water and insects, insects being a very high protein and omega3 fat source contributed to larger brains and all those factors lead to what the human represents nowadays, nothing comparable in the animal kingdom.
      The Biggest Fallacy of Mankind is to think that they know their History.
