The U.S. government spent $710 billion in Trump’s first month, an increase from the same period a year prior. Cost-cutting efforts are ineffective, and job losses are occurring without clear justification.

A large, blonde-tan canid lumbers over grass dotted with autumn leaves in mid-November. He appears to be big even by eastern coyote standards. His ears, muzzle, and forehead are black. To me, this suggests the photographer might be correct about domestic dog DNA in this animal's immediate ancestry—or wolf.

Daily Coyote: a wolfy eastern coyote. (I refer you to the alt text. Any thoughts?)

Collage of images of a red and black gynandromorph ant, neatly split down the middle head to gaster; male side (black) has one wing, female (red) side has none.
Caption reads: "July 4th is a perfect time to get lost in Florida scrubland. On the side of a clearing, I noticed a wasp-like insect flying strangely. I immediately posted photos online and provided the ID: a bilateral gy- nandromorph of the long-horned Amazon ant (Polyergus longicornis): half male alate (black side), half female worker-an intersex insect!

I'm gonna keep it real with y'all the only reason I haven't updated the thread in a bit is because I'm still working on the rough draft on leucism. I know what it is and all that, and how to explain it, I just need to find the right words so it dosent come off confusing 😓

Bluesky is funny because I can’t recall any other platform where its growth is explicitly tied to the collective hate for one person.

Erythrism or erythrochroism refers to an unusual overabundance of reddish pigmentation in an animal's fur, skin, feathers, or even eggs! Individuals with the condition are commonly refered to as "golden" or "strawberry" animals. They become more reddish or roufous in appearance.

Before I continue posting on this thread, I just want to say that I am in no way a professional. I am not trained for this sort of thing. I'm just a guy with a passion for wildlife and information comes from my own research and is subject to inaccuracies. Let me know if ya spot any inaccuracies!
