Anti-Anthropomorphic, Actual Animal Behavior
There's a lot of animal media on the internet.

We're here to discuss the bad parts, explain the confusing bits, research the current topics, and showcase the cutest, coolest, most unknown content - all while putting animal behavior in its own proper context.



Thank you for talking about the whale/boat video. it bothered me that everyone was all 'omg dumb bitches, whales are sweet and harmless!!1 I would have stroked it!' like... encounters with large wild animals can be dangerous for all involved, even if they're not being aggressive. Maybe the people shouldn't have panicked, but trying to move away is probably sensible if they aren't experienced with that sort of situation.

Absolutely. Whales may not be actively aggressive towards people in most cases, but it is dangerous to simply be in close proximity to an animal of that size. 

Feel free to point out anyone saying they’d pet it that, in fact, that action would be a violation of the MMPA within American waters and could land them in jail and/or with a five thousand dollar fine.
