The Pittas of Sepilok

10,000 Birds

Well – I only saw two species, the most common ones at Sepilok, Sabah, Borneo, Malaysia. But they are well worth their own post, even though I cannot really write too much about them. Not that they need many words anyway. One is the Black-crowned Pitta , a species endemic to Borneo with a number of aliases including black-headed pitta, black-and-crimson pitta, black-and-scarlet pitta, and black-crowned garnet pitta (if you want to identify it by its monograms on its shirts, they always sta

How do I help this bird?

Reddit Animals

Yesterday there was an older baby bird (it had feathers for flying) in my tree which fell out and I kept it for the night and fed. I recently put it back up in its tree where it flew from branch to branch (it previously did not know how to fly) and it stayed up there for about two hours with its mum until it fell into my neighbours garden, where it’s now just walking around while the mother is stood up on the fence nearby.

Keep finding decapitated mice/rats under car

Reddit Animals

I moved into this house about a year ago. 5 or 6 times over the last year I have found decapitated or otherwise "dissassembled" mice or small rats near or under my car. The first time I noticed it, it was actually a rat leg wedged through a bolt hole on my chassis that I noticed hanging under the car. That one was really confusing and concerning because it had to have been shoved through from above.

Sprayed Raid spray on ants near my front door. How long until it's safe for my cat to be there?

I had a doctor's appointment today, and prior to that I had noticed my cat (male, neutered, 4 years old) sniffing around the front door but thought nothing of it. Three hours later, I came back, and there's a whole line of ants running around. I can't figure out what they're running towards, there's no food there. Anyways, I panicked.

Slugs are making their way into my kitchen frequently and I’ve found slug mites on them, should I be worried for my house or health as I’ve been near them?

Reddit Animals

Was in the kitchen earlier and saw four slugs, two were definitely on steroids. I was chucking them out, but noticed little yellow bugs on them, knew they were parasites. I checked the other and it had the same. I picked up with a paper towel and washed my hands after, but could they’re still be mites in my kitchen, roaming about - I reckon not as they don’t shy away from they’re source, but thought I’d come on here anyway to see.

Stray cats and rabies

Reddit Animals

Northwest fl. For the past 3 weeks I’ve had 2 strays hanging out on my back porch. Once they get a bit more friendly my husband wants to trap them to get shots. Today the orange one bit me on my toe. I’m a hypochondriac so naturally I think I have rabies. I don’t think it broke any skin, it felt more like a nip, went inside and cleaned my toes, I also pour isopropyl alcohol and didn’t feel any sting like a cut or anything.
