That’s a Pokemon for sure.

I name this a Yethroatie.

Yes

edit: forgive the stock watermarks, but check out their paws

What the fuck I NEED to pet it

Dude, remember the time you saw that honeybadger and said, I quote, "I will NOT go home without getting IN there!"

Maybe, ya know, just take it slow this time.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Man, that honeybadger did not. Give. A. Fuck.

This motherfucker's snackin' on bees and you're just gonna reach your arm in there?

Creature: is like 50-75% yellow.

Scientists: its defining feature is its yellow throat.

Cute and equipped to boldly wreck your bum even though you're thrice their size. Yeah, that's a mustelidae 😅

[–] loaExMachina 31 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Long legs for a mustelid. As if a stoat tried to become a cat.

An adorable, and deadly combination

I need someone to make me a sphere shaped capturing tool of sorts. Color theme doesn't matter. All that matters is that after capture, I can just toss said tool with said animal still inside, in a box and never interact with it again.

When they said “Land of the Leopard” I had to check what they meant. I mean, faces are getting eaten here in the States and I had never heard of this thing before!

Now we know its weak spot!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

It has a gambling addiction.

So if that guy was going megafauna, you would get this.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

That throat has serious scope-creep.

This looks like something that got chucked through a time portal from the Permian period. My lizard brain says run but ape brain says pet

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

Lol, and here I thought it looked like something that got chucked into a field of freshly bloomed flowers. Just cover thyself in pollen, mammal, and return to my embrace.

I admire its purity. A survivor...unclouded by conscience, remorse, or delusions of morality.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Ooooh... So martenizing is when you get turned into a stoat? 😲

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

That’s what I’m told

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

Looks like it just got done with a marathon session going down on Big Bird.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Donald Ducking it like a perv.
Get some pants!

Superb mittens tho.

Was there ever any marten mentioned besides the pine marten with the red cloak in the martin the warrior book? I think there was one in the pearls of lutra, on the island kingdom?

Shoot, it's been so long I can't remember.
