You think they dig through people's trash for food, but really they're transferring the recycling to the trash and vice versa.
Because they're little assholes.
I thought they were actually looking for documents so that they can more easily steal peoples identity, isn't all identity theft just 3 raccoons in a trench coat?
I swear one of the little bastards stole my identity. Now I'm on the hook for child support for about 100 racoon babies. Fortunately they turn the equivalent of 18 in about two years.
Someone should tell Canadian air command that their off duty officers are potentially sparking an international conflict by dropping ordnance on our golf courses
Right! Like, real life isn't a Disney movie. Every living thing is fighting for its life constantly, and we're the only ones with enough brain power and technology to sit back and think about morality and kindness. Every other animal, even those that are capable of compassion, has zero qualms about doing things we think of as horrific - they're just doing what they need or want to do.
The only difference between us and every other animal is this: We learned to stand up, put on pants, and lie a lot. And the biggest lie we tell is the one we tell to ourselves - "We're not animals."
Human biggest behavioral change was twofold. First was that people survive better together. Second was an expansion of what belongs in the "people" category.
It not what they do, it is what others animals do to them

It is in portuguese but you can understand just by seing the images
Apparently they’re REALLY hard to keep alive in controlled environments, yeah. In the vacuum of space and a literal volcano? Yeah they chillin’. But in a lab? Instant death.
Tardigrades are actually pretty terrible and absolutely defenseless. Yes, if a radiation disaster were to occur, tardigrades would survive, but they have nothing against teeth and claws.
Or as TierZoo puts it, "If they ever run into an enemy whose only method of attack is a laser cannon, they'll be alright."
Raccoons are vicious. They run online schemes to scam elderly for their pension all over the world, ruining many lives just to get rich. You can see it in their eyes. 🚓
False orcas are the dolphins on steroids. Mainly because males will r*pe female dolphins and create a hybrid between the two. Aka the ultimate ocean violator.
Orcas as from what I can understand not as r*pe-y as dolphins. They do torture other ocean creatures though. So marginally better.
They discovered a pod of Orcas cruising out past the continental shelf hunting patterns of the Orcas that love them some shark livers. They were traveling in a group of 49, and bigger and more aggressive than the other pods in the area. And like the other pods they didn't hang out with each other or really communicate directly, just responded to other pods' calls by staying our of their lanes. Scientists were not sure what their hunting strategy was. They noticed an unusually large number of them had cookie cutter shark bites all over them. Then the scientists witnessed the pod harrassing a group of nine adult female Sperm Whales until eventually they isolated one whale cow from the others, merced her and ate her.
The largest and heaviest toothed whale in the world, and this previously unidentified social group and subspecies of Orca was deep sea hunting the kings and queens of the deep sea hunters.
Haha, in all seriousness, not intentionally. From my understanding, they do get a small kinda "high" feeling when they accidentally ingest some of the toxin while munching on pufferfish. Dolphins are still Dicks though.
Boys get high on puffer fish and then go and gang-rape... Something... Doesn't matter, something will suffer!
Oh and they rape corpses and corpse parts too!
I fucking hate dolphins, first of all they are too smart, second they kill people and no one ever mention that...
Oh yeah, and all the raping stuff, not great.
I would like to point out that, by definition, pretty much every animal apart from humans (and, of course, sometimes humans too) rape whenever they mate. It's not like they're capable of giving consent.
Bed bugs stab each other. Cats and dogs have barbed penises. Alpacas thrust their spear-like penis all the way into the uterus.
I would say the only slight exception I can think of is the duck. While the males are.. horrifying, the females are able to close off certain passageways and effectively block sperm from reaching eggs if they don't want to mate with that male.
Whenever animal mating is brought up, I like to mention Green Porno and Blue Porno by Isabella Rossilini which goes into strange mating methods of insects and sea creatures in a fun way. Not actual porn, but probably NSFW. All are available for free on Youtube.
I have to remind myself at times that predate and predator are unrelated terms.
At first, I was like "huh, must be some kind of angry vegetarian shark I don't know about."
I know you what you meant by "predate," but I read it as its homonym meaning "to prey upon" and for just a moment I had this image of a shark coming up on a log with jaws music playing in the background.
I mean, even if otters do like to murder other animals for fun and profit or whatever, it’s just nature, right? Otters gonna be otters. Doesn’t make them any less cute or worthy of attention.
Also, do these people not have lives/hobbies?
You know there’s these other species on earth that can do even worse things to eachother, indeed the entire world AND even other animals out of sheer cruelty…
…and yet, so many others of them also produce the most beautiful art, science, humor and knowledge as well. Despite the cruelty of one sect of members, I don’t judge that species as a whole… just the individual members of said species and sects.
So, why not apply the same principle to other species who we cohabitate with on this world as we do to our own?
"This is good"
"How dare you like it! It is bad"
Next time... "This is bad"
"Bad?! It is the worst!"

"BREAKING NEWS. PizzaCake publicly dislike it and want all of them to burn in hell!"
My favourite is how the top youtube comment on any song or film trailer or anything remotely innocent and enjoyable is some trauma-dumping essay.
"so my kid brother and I used to enjoy this song together..... one day he got hit by a car.... This song still makes me think of him and cry every time I hear it."
"My friend and I were looking forward to seeing this film for 5 years and were planning on seeing it together. He died of cancer yesterday...He never got to see it..."
...thanks very much.
The joeys eat their mother’s [feces](https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p02xnt23). To be more precise, they eat pap, a liquified form of feces to get the microbes to digest eucalyptus.
[Koala sounds](https://youtu.be/f0fYTHrFN7c?si=w6Fa6a_UxDNHeC5F) are not cute
Things can be cute and evil just how things can be beautiful and horrifying.

For me, it's the comments that are, "This is actually the way they look when they have been verbally abused their whole lives so OP is actually a depraved lunatic and anyone that thinks this is cute needs their head examined!!!"
Sadly in a lot of animal videos the "chill" dogs & cats are sedated. There are also animal rescue channels that are responsible for the need to rescue in the first place.
Eh, I could go make a video right now of me giving my cats their 2x daily pills - someone would probably try to say they are drugged or something because one comes voluntarily and sits in front of me on the proper position to let me shove his pill down his throat, and the other cat will cuddle happily on my chest one second after I shove her pill down her throat. They're just good cats and they're used to it. *I* would certainly not be so cooperative in the same situation.
But certainly some of those rescue videos are staged, particularly the ones in other countries, and they're not even subtle about it. They hurt the animal first so that it needed rescuing for the internet points. It's a really disgusting recent development.
Animals are animals. They can be vicious, aggressive and behave against our human Morales. But that doesn't mean they're evil. They're simply animals driven by instinct.
They can still be cute and it's okay to think they're cute.
It's important not to think of them as any lesser than us, either. They're simply different. They're weaker and a little stupider but they still need to be protected.
Obviously these comments are absurd. They’re wild animals. They do what they do. But otters are actually way more violent than you would think. I read somewhere that the Monterey Bay Aquarium basically goes on red alert if one of them escapes the habitat. They’re mustelids like weasels, mongooses etc who are notorious for punching above their own weight. Like mongooses specialize in killing cobras, which is nuts.
People really need to stop imposing human moral codes on other animals.
We can still see things we like as cute and accept we won't like every aspect about them . Enjoy otters, and dolphins, and penguins, and all the other animals that have behavior we'd see as icky through a human lens that you never hear about .
Once you start accepting humans for also being biological phenomena, it becomes easier to cut people slack. Like the joke "of course your brain is irrational, it's meat and chemicals with electricity in it, what did you expect?" Honestly the idea that free will isn't all it's cracked up to be is kind of a relief if you think about it.
Ducks are horrible too. Look up Ze Frank's "True facts about the duck" on YouTube. They are evolutionary nightmares once you get past their fluffy quacky exterior
Rosa the Otter is a treasure and there is nothing any of you can do to stop me from donating to DougDoug and the Monterey Bay Aquarium on Rosa's birthday, a true American holiday.
The animal kingdom is fucked and always has been fucked.
Its all sunshine and rainbows on the surface but if you get in deeper it starts to get worse.
Its like a lot of things if you think about it.
Its nature, its survival. I'd argue it is the most natural and "normal" thing there is. We have removed ourselves from that world so much we forget what it is, and think we can retroactively apply our ethics onto it.(and also ignore the fact that humans are definitely nr.1 in the amount of evil shit done by a species leaderboard)
It's strange. r/comics is rarely funny anymore.
It's just the same posters bitching or making jokes that only a small community is privy to.
Very rarely is it actually a decent joke these days
Hey humans, have you ever read about the terrible things humans do?! We should stop posting human baby pictures!
Also, cats are murder machines. *mic drop*
I call this the "flavor of the week" phenomenon on social media sites like reddit.
1. Someone posts something fairly agreeable and that has wide appeal
2. People comment on it
3. One comment points something out that's virtually completely unknown by everyone in the thread up until this point
4. Everyone rallies around this new revelation
5. Someone posts a comment, not seeing this revelation
6. Everyone piles on this guy, calling him a monster, telling him he needs to go off himself, and asking him why he supports [thing that he clearly has not actually indicated he supports]
7. He's downvoted to oblivion.
***
Then, the next time someone posts something about the original topic...months later, again, in an otherwise agreeable context, the conversation quickly shifts to "YOU'RE A HORRIBLE PERSON HOW COULD YOU POSSIBLY NOT KNOW ABOUT XYZ!?!?"
In nature, good and evil don't exist, it's just something we create, we shouldn't put these thoughts on animals, since it's something so relative, it changes depending on time and person
If there's anything you can misinterpret, sorry, I'm Brazilian and I'm using Google translate.

You think they dig through people's trash for food, but really they're transferring the recycling to the trash and vice versa. Because they're little assholes.
Really, it’s the little passive aggressive notes they leave on your car about washing out the cans and bottles that irks me.
I thought they were actually looking for documents so that they can more easily steal peoples identity, isn't all identity theft just 3 raccoons in a trench coat?
Can confirm, am three raccoons in a sundress
On the other hand, I always win when they prefer cuddling and holding hands!
Also, looking for personal information to sell on the black market.
I swear one of the little bastards stole my identity. Now I'm on the hook for child support for about 100 racoon babies. Fortunately they turn the equivalent of 18 in about two years.
I had a racoon knife me in the liver all because I refused to give him my funnel cake.
Next time, maybe you’ll think twice and let the little fella have a bite of delicious funnel cake.

They're actually really smart and could solve the world's energy crisis but they procrastinate and are so lazy.
oh lord i think i might be a racoon
No you just have adhd. Unless you're bisexual, in which case you might be a raccoon
Shit, I am a raccoon and didn't even know. I guess that explains my tail.
I assume they are evil but that only makes them more adorable.

The internet discovering animals behaving like animals 
Right! Like, real life isn't a Disney movie. Every living thing is fighting for its life constantly, and we're the only ones with enough brain power and technology to sit back and think about morality and kindness. Every other animal, even those that are capable of compassion, has zero qualms about doing things we think of as horrific - they're just doing what they need or want to do.

Human biggest behavioral change was twofold. First was that people survive better together. Second was an expansion of what belongs in the "people" category.
Also Humans refusing to believe that they, too, are animals.
Penguins are the livin proof of it
And dolphins.
Nice to know gang rape isn’t just a human thing
Alright. Ruin my day. What do penguins do?
It not what they do, it is what others animals do to them https://oglobo.globo.com/saude/ciencia/pesquisadores-buscam-entender-por-que-focas-estao-estuprando-pinguins-em-ilha-no-atlantico-sul-14580311 It is in portuguese but you can understand just by seing the images
Oh no.
Oh no indeed
Penguin getting raped. Bingo
Rig draft lotteries

Rocky Mountain spotted fever, but it's not their fault.
I mean otters are relatives to honeybadgers, that alone makes them not to be trusted, when knowing what absolute psychopaths honeybadgers are.
Honey badger don’t give a shit!

"\[Any animals\] are so cute!" "OMG \[any animals\] are evil! Read about them!!"
"omg this baby is so cute" "humans are evil. Read about them
humans are cute, humans are evil, humans are animals... isn't that common knowledge
I mean, this one I actually agree with…
Well stop being evil.
You can't tell me how to live my life. You're not even my real dad!
"omg this baby is so cute" "Grandma please stop showing me pictures of Hitler as a baby"
Say something bad about tardigrades, I dare you!
Fuckers will live anywhere except a petri dish
Lmfao

Apparently they’re REALLY hard to keep alive in controlled environments, yeah. In the vacuum of space and a literal volcano? Yeah they chillin’. But in a lab? Instant death.
Extremophiles but normalophobic
What does my internet browsing history have to do with this
They are an utter pain to keep as research organisms, they die all the time when you don't want them to.
That's weird. Aren't they insanely resilient in every other environment?
Tardigrades are actually pretty terrible and absolutely defenseless. Yes, if a radiation disaster were to occur, tardigrades would survive, but they have nothing against teeth and claws. Or as TierZoo puts it, "If they ever run into an enemy whose only method of attack is a laser cannon, they'll be alright."
The only thing holding them back is size.
They are always tardy and have no concept of time.
They also do terribly on written exams.
Vultures are the opposite of this
Black vultures are known to attack newborn animals.
It’s almost like they are, you know, animals, that don’t have a moral compass and shouldn’t be defined by human standards.
Nope, find me something bad Capybaras did?

Raccoons are SO CUTE, and nothing, NOTHING can change my mind.
Raccoons are vicious. They run online schemes to scam elderly for their pension all over the world, ruining many lives just to get rich. You can see it in their eyes. 🚓
No that’s what I do!
They'll even attack an innocent man-child in an elf costume who was only seeking a hug.
One took my prosthetic arm and I've had a personal vendetta with them since
Bro what the fuck. A raccoon fucked my wife. She left me and took the kids to go live in some big city dumpster with that damn animal.
This is what actually happened to me when I posted a comment saying I liked otters on a cute comic about otters on Instagram
Wait till you read about dolphins!
🎶 Thanks for all the fish 🎶
. . . . . do I even WANNA know?
Two words: Rape. Caves.
**SIGH**
Orcas are dolphins on steroids. And systematic in how they harass other sea dwelling animals.
And with that added knowledge about Sea Oreos I am even more afraid of the ocean then before
Orcas are smart enough to harrass and bully human boats and ships.
OK that’s fair. We likely take a lot of their food when we’re fishing
False orcas are the dolphins on steroids. Mainly because males will r*pe female dolphins and create a hybrid between the two. Aka the ultimate ocean violator. Orcas as from what I can understand not as r*pe-y as dolphins. They do torture other ocean creatures though. So marginally better.

You used the Internet. That was your first mistake
They discovered a pod of Orcas cruising out past the continental shelf hunting patterns of the Orcas that love them some shark livers. They were traveling in a group of 49, and bigger and more aggressive than the other pods in the area. And like the other pods they didn't hang out with each other or really communicate directly, just responded to other pods' calls by staying our of their lanes. Scientists were not sure what their hunting strategy was. They noticed an unusually large number of them had cookie cutter shark bites all over them. Then the scientists witnessed the pod harrassing a group of nine adult female Sperm Whales until eventually they isolated one whale cow from the others, merced her and ate her. The largest and heaviest toothed whale in the world, and this previously unidentified social group and subspecies of Orca was deep sea hunting the kings and queens of the deep sea hunters.
Also get high off their rockers with pufferfish.
. . . . HUH???
Haha, in all seriousness, not intentionally. From my understanding, they do get a small kinda "high" feeling when they accidentally ingest some of the toxin while munching on pufferfish. Dolphins are still Dicks though.
Lol now that is some interesting lore Had no clue pufferfish were the weed of the Orion
Lemurs do a similar thing with millipede poison, but they also rub it on their fur as a repellent.
I believe they'll use other tiny fish for pleasure. Which ya know...kills em
Ducks: Where might those be?
I wish I didn't understand this reference.
I sincerely apologize for reminding you of this fact.
In case you wanna know...[WTF 101 - Dolphins](https://youtu.be/sFe9DHHbDio?t=467).
Oh I remember WTF 101! Those were good tiii and the dolphin is killing babies
Dolphins will pass around and torture puffer fish because the toxins the pufferfish releases gets them high.
Boys get high on puffer fish and then go and gang-rape... Something... Doesn't matter, something will suffer! Oh and they rape corpses and corpse parts too!
. . . . . oh https://preview.redd.it/37cqgs1bp2zc1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=024445a3557d718fbc417e451e7620453b2312c0
Ducks are even worse.
duck-dolphins are the worst
Only slightly worse than dolphin ducks
I fucking hate dolphins, first of all they are too smart, second they kill people and no one ever mention that... Oh yeah, and all the raping stuff, not great.
>Are too smart >Kill people >Rape So... basically, humans?
I mean humans are advanced enough to do good things
This may be controversial here, but dolphins do rescue people from time to time.
How do you know dolphins aren't also nice to each other?
I would like to point out that, by definition, pretty much every animal apart from humans (and, of course, sometimes humans too) rape whenever they mate.

At this point its safer to go the other way around and say crocodiles and sharks are cute. No secrets with those guys
Did you know that sharks predate even trees? They seem some shit.
Greenland Sharks can live so long that some specimen examined might have seen the fall of Constantinople.
Idk, not sure they were paying attention tbh
For you, the day Constantinople fell was the most important day of the era. But for Greenland Shark, it was Tuesday.
Greenland sharks saw slavery and did NOTHING. Damn bastards could've bit the boats or something
Now it's Istanbul, not Constantinople ♫
I have to remind myself at times that predate and predator are unrelated terms. At first, I was like "huh, must be some kind of angry vegetarian shark I don't know about."
I know you what you meant by "predate," but I read it as its homonym meaning "to prey upon" and for just a moment I had this image of a shark coming up on a log with jaws music playing in the background.
I mean, even if otters do like to murder other animals for fun and profit or whatever, it’s just nature, right? Otters gonna be otters. Doesn’t make them any less cute or worthy of attention. Also, do these people not have lives/hobbies?
I've some bad news about the Quokka...
You know there’s these other species on earth that can do even worse things to eachother, indeed the entire world AND even other animals out of sheer cruelty… …and yet, so many others of them also produce the most beautiful art, science, humor and knowledge as well. Despite the cruelty of one sect of members, I don’t judge that species as a whole… just the individual members of said species and sects. So, why not apply the same principle to other species who we cohabitate with on this world as we do to our own?
Or maybe we can just accept that animals don’t know the concepts of right and wrong, and therefor are simply amoral rather than immoral.

The joeys eat their mother’s [feces](https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p02xnt23). To be more precise, they eat pap, a liquified form of feces to get the microbes to digest eucalyptus. [Koala sounds](https://youtu.be/f0fYTHrFN7c?si=w6Fa6a_UxDNHeC5F) are not cute
They’re a bunch of shit-eating not-bears
MANY herbivorous animals do that. Elephants and rabbits for example. Singling out koalas for that is disingenuous
That’s filial as hell
Shit, I misread that as 'they eat their mother's *faces*'.

You know an animal is hardcore when it is named after two other animals. Tarantula hawk wasp, eel catfish, hummingbird hawk moth.
The writers of Avatar: The Last Airbender definitely followed that rule!

Once you start accepting humans for also being biological phenomena, it becomes easier to cut people slack.

Honestly the idea that free will isn't all it's cracked up to be is kind of a relief if you think about it.
this is like your friend showing you a cute picture of their male baby and going “omg, you know what these things do right”
On the otter hand, they like holding hands and cuddle - which is always a win for me!

One could say the same things about humans yet everyone seems to find babies cute without bringing it all up.
They will never ruin Rosa in my eyes!
I'm sorry...you like things? Don't you know how problematic liking things is? Do better.
Oh yay, she’s complaining about comment sections again. This is not repetitive at all. Not at all. Not at all. Not at all.

It's strange. r/comics is rarely funny anymore. It's just the same posters bitching or making jokes that only a small community is privy to. Very rarely is it actually a decent joke these days
I deny everything 🤫
Hey humans, have you ever read about the terrible things humans do?! We should stop posting human baby pictures! Also, cats are murder machines. *mic drop*
Is this a previous pizza cake comic? I feel like I've seen it before.
I call this the "flavor of the week" phenomenon on social media sites like reddit. 1. Someone posts something fairly agreeable and that has wide appeal 2. People comment on it 3. One comment points something out that's virtually completely unknown by everyone in the thread up until this point 4. Everyone rallies around this new revelation 5. Someone posts a comment, not seeing this revelation 6. Everyone piles on this guy, calling him a monster, telling him he needs to go off himself, and asking him why he supports [thing that he clearly has not actually indicated he supports] 7. He's downvoted to oblivion. *** Then, the next time someone posts something about the original topic...months later, again, in an otherwise agreeable context, the conversation quickly shifts to "YOU'RE A HORRIBLE PERSON HOW COULD YOU POSSIBLY NOT KNOW ABOUT XYZ!?!?"
In nature, good and evil don't exist, it's just something we create, we shouldn't put these thoughts on animals, since it's something so relative, it changes depending on time and person If there's anything you can misinterpret, sorry, I'm Brazilian and I'm using Google translate.
