Slight educational benefits aren't comparable to all the harm for animals in closed spaces. Education can be done in multiple ways, outside of zoos. We should boycott all zoos and support animal sanctuaries, they don't breed with animals. (it's like the supply and demand principle)

10/13 Robin Brand und Paul Voß salutierten gleich parallel, während der #Jungsturm-Anführer Marco Klingner die Plakette an Ivan Velchev übergab, #Animals-Chef und Capo von #ZSKA #Sofia. Auch Thomas Hartrodt (l.) und Johann Walter (r.) schienen erfreut. Mit der Projektion im Hintergrund suggerierten die rechten Hools, Delegationen ihrer Vereine zu sein - was zumindest für die #Erfurt|er nun zum Problem wurde.
5/13 Ein Bindeglied zwischen #Sofia und #Erfurt ist Orlin Pavlov (r.) von den #Animals, gleichzeitig Aktivist in den Netzwerken von #BloodandHonour / #Combat18. An seiner Personalie zeigt sich die Gefährlichkeit der vorgeblich unpolitischen Fußballnetzwerke.
This one looks like some species from another planet.
It is Six-banded armadillo (Euphractus sexcinctus), also known as the yellow armadillo, is an armadillo found in South America. Unlike most other armadillos, they are diurnal (active during day), they are skilled diggers, creating burrows up to 2 meters deep for shelter and sleeping. They have an acute sense of smell. Unlike other armadillos, they cannot roll into a ball for protection, instead they flee into their burrows when threatened. They could also share their burrows with other individuals, suggesting a more social nature than other armadillos. They scent-mark their territory using scent glands located at the base of their tails. Their burrow is in U-form, they are the only species of armadillo that can eat hard items like palm nuts etc.

Our sleepy Pax is headed to Lullaby Land.
Goodnight, or good day, to our Mastodon and Fediverse friends.
Never too late. A roughly 100-year-old western Santa Cruz Galápagos tortoise has become a mom for the first time after reproducing with a male of the same age at the Philadelphia Zoo. Read about it @LiveScience:

Pax is so PROUD of everyone who participated in the #HANDSOFF2025 protests yesterday! If she could, she would give a thumbs up
