Why do animals from the same family attack each other?

Reddit Animals

So the other day I was watching funny pet cat videos and I started thinking. If one of these cats approached a tiger or lion I am assuming that the altercation would not go well. But then I asked myself why? They are both from the same family so why would they not become friends?

"funhouse mirror" test?

Reddit Animals

I know that there are several species of animals that pass the "mirror test", i.e. they recognize themselves in mirrors (dolphins, apes, corvids.). Has there been any tests using "funhouse" style mirrors that distort the image? Would a chimpanzee look in a wobbly mirror and be able to identify themselves?

Any ideas on how to keep my cats who has different diets from eating each others food?

Reddit Animals

So, I have two cats. One of them is sterilized, the other one isn't. I always buy two types of cat food. I live with my bf but we are both working during day and there are times that we are not able to be at home to monitor them while they are eating. Lately i've been noticing that the unsterilized one keeps losing weight while the sterilized one keeps gaining.

HELP! I found a baby magpie being circled by a murder of crows, parents no where to be seen. I have since brought it home in a shoe box.

Reddit Animals

I didn’t know what to do, but it seemed pretty certain the little one was going to get eaten. Sorry if this was the wrong thing to do. I hung around for awhile and saw no magpies at all, no nest, nothing. The only thing stopping the crows from getting it was me, so I picked it up and explored the area trying to find its parents. I eventually found some magpies, and what looked like a nest.
