I did a lot of pier fishing in florida years ago. There were always a couple of big brown pelicans who would hang around and try to steal my bait or grab a pinfish when you got it out of the water. I got mad at one and kept trying to scare it away. An old man told me "you know that pelican is so old and blind he can't dive in the water and catch fish anymore.? That's why he is stealing and begging for fish." Apparently when they get older they go blind from diving in the water after fish. I never knew that or even thought about it. So after that I would always throw the old pelicans a fish or 2 when I was fishing for bait. That old man completely changed my attitude about pelicans.

I used to have a turtle from the desert Sibi in the north of Pakistan. Then, in the 70's, there weren't any rules concerning turtles from the wild. Several years later my father was retired and my family moved back to Europe. Of course my turtle came with us. She acted like a dog and would respond to calls. She loved to eat tomatoes and fresh salad. Sibi, named after the place she was from, always lived in the garden, never in a cage. So when she came to Austria, we thought we would have to take her inside in the winter. This we did three times. But then in this one year, winter came around very early. And when we went in the garden to look for Sibi, we couldn't find her. I was devastated, because I thought she was dead. But in spring, when the warming sunrays hit the garden, Sibi turned up. And she was way stronger than in all the other years, when we had done everything to reduce her diet and give her a bath before she would go to sleep during the winter. It turned out, that Sibi stayed in the compost all winter. So from then on, we always made sure, that she had a compost bedding of her own, and also covered with a metal plate, so neither could heavy snow pressure her, nor could water get on her. She was so strong and healthy. Until my stupid sister, who had moved back in with my parents because one of her lovers had left her again, until she decided to make a pond. I told her to watch out and make it secure for Sibi. But she didn't and so Sibi drowned wen being with us for 30 years. Sibi was no carnivore. I once tried out to give her meat, but she didn't eat it. Sibi always ate fruits and vegetables, with tomatoes and salad being her favorite meals.

ok so I randomly stumbled upon a short from Hank Green (who I previously tagged in this reply thread), and in that he explained that certain pterosaurs did develop pouches like pelicans, but that the trait emerged independently from pelicans’ adaptation. Essentially pelicans and other birds are equally related to pterosaurs, and the resemblance is partly coincidental, and partly because a pouch is advantageous for that hunting style.

I remember when abut 15 years ago a dog was dragged down in a pond in Mönchengladbach, Germany. It was an old giant catfish. The dog had not been far away from land and only in the water with his legs. The huge catfish hunted him down by catching one leg and pulling him fast to the middle of the pond, where he dragged him down in the water multiple times until the dog was dead. This was caught on camera. Hardly anybody believed it without seeing the photos. But then a few years later, again this catfish hunted down two other dogs. Officials tried to catch the catfish, but weren't able to. Nobody goes in the water anymore there. So either the catfish is dead by now, or he is on a different diet. ^^

Take the typical modern day fishing vessel, for example. It's an absolute horror show in terms of killing, maiming, and destroying the habitats of billions of wild sea animals and that gets largely ignored. But then we all feel good when we hear of a tiny number of wild animals rehabbed from unfortunate nonhuman forces.

i have exactly the same turtle at my home, I'm keeping it as a pet and i can confirm its bite force is extremely high also its claws are dangerous. i rescued it from the wild and i'm having it with me since 2014 and it's a small one weighing around 900g i even got another one to keep its company but it severely injured the new turtle so i had no choice but to keep them both separately. I'm not a turtle expert and i don't know their behavior so if anyone knows them well let me know how to befriend it. it's been over 8 years since i found it and it still hides inside its shell when i hold it

I don't know how to tell you this lightly, but if you don't know basic stuff about a species as the fact that they're territorial and solitary and that you can't befriend two animals that aren't social, you shouldn't keep them. You should know their behavior if you decided to care from them. Also, you don't rescue animals from the wild, you took it out of its environment and depending on your local laws it might even be illegal. In addition, in the case you find a wild wounded animal you call the experts, don't intervene yourself if you don't have the knowledge/experience, you can make it much worse

Pelicans are birds of the family Pelecanidae, there are over eight extant species within six genera and two subfamilies, pelicans are classified within the order Pelecaniformes, which also contains more fairly similar species like cormorants, shags, darters, frigatebirds, boobies, gannets, and tropicbirds in addition to more primitive and different-looking but phylogenetically related species like the kagu of New Caledonia, the sunbittern of South America, and the shoebill and hamerkop of Africa, the order Pelecaniformes is split into four suborders, Eurypygae for the families Rhynochetidae (Kagu and Fossil Relatives) and Eurypygidae (Sunbittern and Fossil Relatives), Balaenicipites for the families Scopidae (Hamerkop and Fossil Relatives) and Balaenicipitidae (Shoebill and Fossil Relatives), Phaethontae for the family Phaethontidae (Tropicbirds), and Pelecani for the families Sulidae (Boobies and Gannets), Fregatidae (Frigatebirds), Anhingidae (Darters), Phalacrocoracidae (Cormorants and Shags), and Pelecanidae (Pelicans), the eight extant pelican species are the American White Pelican (Platyceros erythrorhynchos), the Brown Pelican (Leptopelecanus occidentalis), the Peruvian Pelican (Leptopelecanus thagus), the Great White Pelican (Pelecanus onocrotalus), the Australian Pelican (Pelecanus conspicillatus), the Pink-Backed Pelican (Neopelecanus rufescens), the Dalmatian Pelican (Ruforhynchus crispus), and the Spot-Billed Pelican (Spilorhynchus philippensis) Taxonomy: • Family: Pelecanidae (Pelicans) •• Subfamily: Leptopelecaninae (New World Pelicans) ••• Genus: Platyceros (New World White Pelicans) •••• Species: Platyceros erythrorhynchos (American White Pelican) ••• Genus: Leptopelecanus (Dive-Bombing Pelicans) •••• Species: Leptopelecanus occidentalis (Brown Pelican) •••• Species: Leptopelecanus thagus (Peruvian Pelican) •• Subfamily: Pelecaninae (Old World Pelicans) ••• Genus: Pelecanus (Old World White Pelicans) •••• Species: Pelecanus onocrotalus (Great White Pelican) •••• Species: Pelecanus conspicillatus (Australian Pelican) ••• Genus: Neopelecanus (Pink-Backed Pelican Lineage) •••• Species: Neopelecanus rufescens (Pink-Backed Pelican) ••• Genus: Ruforhynchus (Dalmatian Pelican Lineage) •••• Species: Ruforhynchus crispus (Dalmatian Pelican) ••• Genus: Spilorhynchus (Spot-Billed Pelican Lineage) •••• Species: Spilorhynchus philippensis (Spot-Billed Pelican)

@WATOP would you maybe talk about how many animals are bisexual. I just recently found out about it and it actually shoked me, because I always thought animals are heterosexual. Is it like only smth a few of the animals do?

I read that homosexuality in animals was linked to survival of the species. Generalizing here, dolphins and baboons are just raunchy haha. Anyway, take male lions. Most sexually active lions kill (and sometimes eat) other lions cubs so that the lioness comes back into heat and he can spread his own gene pool. A gay lion doesn't care. He'll just be the Uncle, and help protect the pride from other lions and hyenas So a main lion likes to have a gay lion around, all back up, no competition. Homosexual elephant females are like aunties, and will help with babysitting and teaching without favouring their offspring (because they don't have any). I'm not sure if these aunties and uncles are bisexual, homosexual, asexual or infertile though.

@@jaqiharrison1984 Thanks for the information. I have read that, there is no actuall homosexuality but only bisexuality among wild animals. However, in terms of domestic animals, there are cases of dogs, sheeps, horses or cats, where there is homosexuality. Every 10th hamster is gay. But man I was really shocked, I would have thought that.

Loved seeing some anti-pelican justice for a change. I haven't felt this good since seeing the much-smaller Peter Brady kick the much-bigger Buddy Hinton's teeth in, back in 1970.
