Itīs not so easy for most people to communicate with plants as with animals. So signs that are less explicit as the leaves closing of the mimosa, pass unnoticed.
They are very different. One is rooted and the other is mobile. One you can eat part of it and it grows back. The other is not so fortunate.
Some unusual animal mothers:

The story of the octopus mother dying after her young hatched was touching. The Meerkats show animals teaching and learning.
Very interesting article, Tailor. I never had hear about tje narwhals before.
I had not seen narwhals before either. The technique of using drone cameras seems to be useful. So there are unicorns in the sea!
"For American parents, breast-feeding past a year or two tends to be a fraught topic. Orangutan mamas, on the other hand, are in it for the long haul: New research finds that orangutan babies nurse for eight years or more."

Baby Chameleons... http://digg.com/2017/chameleons-blue...m_medium=email
Didnīt know they were so small. I wonder why they didnīt turn the same colour as the hand.

Cute propaganda. But I still remember Tino looking over his shoulder to see if I was following him to the kitchen.
Cecil the Lion's Son Shot Dead, 2 Years After His Father
https://www.livescience.com/59888-ce...shot-dead.html
Sorry to read about the lion.
I was sorry too. Specially as there was a lot of indignation about the death of Cecil and there seemed to be absolutely none about the death of his son. The first case always gets a lot of atention from the media. Than it seems that people lose interest.
Here is something about bee intelligence I ran into today by accident: https://flowartstation.com/2017/08/0...om-other-bees/
Interesting study Yes/No. I believe bees are very capable because they have to work and distribute jobs among their teams.

Good video about cats. The sense of "guilt" was interesting.

Nice cat duet!
interesting video about understanding cats better, might have to use it, I just got a cat a few days ago. Dog and cat getting along very well, he tends to try and eat electrical chords and things like that... any videos about that?
Congrats for your new pet, Helga!

My cat chewed on electrical cords briefly, but I shooed her away from them and that seemed to solve the problem.

One almost needs health insurance for one's pets.
I agree. All goes well as long as the pets donīt fall ill.

I got one for my cat, I was going to get one for my dog too but he was to old. My brother has two cats and one of them was hit by a car and if he had been insured it would have been cheap but they paid a whole lot to get him back to normal.Quote:
