Wolf or a dog?

Reddit Animals

I have recently been on a walk in West Pomeranian Voivodeship in Poland (area where there is a lot of forests and smaller villages) and I have came across these tracks. I think that it may be a wolf but I would like to confirm it.

Dipping in Guyana

10,000 Birds

Dip (verb): [in birding] to miss seeing a bird you were looking for Many times when we speak about the trips we’ve been on we concentrate on the things we experienced, the ruing of missed opportunities tends to be saved for nighttime conversations after a few drinks perhaps. Visiting Guyana brought with it the unavoidable expectation of seeing some mind boggling species – some endangered, some emblematic, others downright bizarre.

Springtime in Bonn

10,000 Birds

When waiting it felt like ages, but once I heard them it felt like they had returned way too early: Firecrests singing in our local park in Bonn. On the way to work in the mornings and on weekend walks, I was very glad to hear the songs of all the migrants arriving. In addition to the Firecrests, within a few days the songs of Common Chiffchaff, Willow Warbler, and Eurasian Blackcap started resonating through the freshly sprouting vegetation.

Cypriot Delights: Part I

10,000 Birds

I’ve been a regular visitor to the island of Cyprus for over 25 years, making around a dozen trips during this period, every one in search of birds. Tucked away at the extreme eastern end of the Mediterranean, Cyprus is regarded politically as part of Europe, but when it comes to birds it’s very much Middle Eastern in flavour, with a number of species that are hard or even impossible to find in Europe, plus a trio of endemics.

Birding Ruili, Yunnan

10,000 Birds

Ruili is a Chinese city right on the border to Myanmar, and a major border crossing. When I last visited the town almost 10 years ago, it had a Wild West feel, and Wikipedia claims that it is “an important location for trade with Myanmar, in both legal and illegal goods and services” but it seemed pretty tame to me this time. My major struggle in the city was with the equipment in a super modern hotel room, with instructions all in Chinese, preventing me from getting a hot shower and

What were horseshoe crabs originally called?

I just saw a tweet where horseshoe crabs are 350 million years old. And it got me thinking. Horseshoes are pretty damn new on the timeline of things. So what did humans call horseshoe crabs before horseshoes were invented? I googlered it and can’t really come up with anything.

Need Help Finding a Home for my Mothers Cats

Reddit Animals

Hello, I hope someone can help me out or point me in the right direction. My mother recently passed and she has two cats and one of which was her baby is very adoptable. She’s an older cat. I put her on the Nextdoor app and a few people told me she’s a Russian blue. She’s about 12 years old. She’s been spayed and her front paws have been declawed (I know that’s not a normal thing now, but back in the day that was fairly normal for people to do that to their cats).

Advice on getting a job working with animal?

Reddit Animals

I love animals and to be honest I'm not a big fan of people. But unfortunately I don't have a university degree and even if I wanted to or could I can't afford the time and money to become a vetinarian. Most other jobs with animals that I know of are volunteer so you don't make money. I'm willing to study, educate, work experience, whatever it takes.
