The Everything Animal Thread

This "From Billions to None" trailer concerns a 2014 film which takes a close look at the Passenger pigeon's flight to extinction. It happened in only 30 years or so.

 
The video just shows a bat enjoying someone tickling it. If you'd rather delete the post because everyone can't view it, that'd be okay with me. It's pretty cute though.

The amiable Baiji (Yangtze River dolphin) is thought to have been last seen well over a decade ago.

A watermelon makes for a tasty summertime treat --- even for hippos.

Could birth control be the answer to saving wild horse populations in the US? These two Native American wildlife keepers in New Mexico think so.

I love these YouTube "animals react to a magic trick" vids.
there is a whole bunch of them with dogs. There is even the "What the Fluff challenge" - people doing one particular magic trick with a blanket and their pets.
There is even a bunch of videos where a "real" magician does tricks on various animals.

Although the entertainment value of these is indisputable, it also shows how "human' animals are.

I was going to post one here. But I can't pick out just one. so if anyone is interested they can just look one up in YouTube.
