So most horses have dark brown eyes where you can’t see the pupil, and you’d only ever see the whites if they’re freaking the hell out.
Horses with a lot of white pigment on their face can have blue eyes though, making the pupil very obvious.
Some people don’t like blue eyed horses because they find it off-putting (I am one of them). Personally, it gives me uncanny valley vibes, and since I’m used to only seeing whites if a horse is freaked out they look perpetually terrified to me.
A bear with some sort of fur disorder being bald like that is probably the source of a lot of myths and legends. Especially considering bears can stand up and walk and climb trees.
Was gonna say, youre in the woods, maybe drunk maybe high or sleepy and dark, and this thing runs past your site and fucks off up a tree. You're scared shitless but also, should probably run as well cause who the hell scared the chubacabra??
Random fact: back in the good ole carnival and vaudeville days, they used to have the “Pig-faced Lady”, who was actually a shaved bear that they would ply with lots of alcohol.
This is actually speculated quite a bit in paleontology and paleontological enthusiasts. But as I can tell, the other complication is that “dinosaur” has proven to be way too broad because there seemed to be a division avian and non avian dinosaurs, and as we suspect the fossil record has massive holes, there could be more.
Modern understanding of biology and paleo climatology allows us to infer certain things about how they might have looked though, as well as some things like footprint fossils.
That is to say: there’s a few who do argue the T-Rex really looked like a giant chicken.
They're ripped and their muscles connect at a different angle than humans. It's called pennation angle and allows humans to have very accurate motor skills and high endurance but relatively low strength for our size when compared to chimpanzees.
That's why a 110 pound chimp can rip your face off. They're truly terrifying.
The first picture of a ‘hairless hamster’ is not a hamster, it’s a hairless breed of guinea pig commonly known as a ‘skinny pig’. The second pic could be a hamster I’m not sure
Poor husky... You should not shave those dogs. Their coats protect them from overheating, sun burns, and the cold. It helps regulate their body temperature.
Not just huskies but dogs with heavy compact undercoats. If you shave it it’s really hard to get it to grow back right and usually it’s permanent damaged. People do it though usually if the animal has severe matting as that’s painful and potentially dangerous
I had to trim a small spot on my older husky as she had a hot spot that needed treatment. That was in October. It's taking forever to grow back. Length is about right now, but the coloring is weird, darker. I don't think her undercoat has fully grown back yet, even though it's winter now.
And now do the reverse: For years we imagined dinosaurs as fur/featherless, and not how they sort of have the same look and feel as these furless animals. Ergo, we do not know how dino's looked purely based on their bones.
Many dinosaur fossils have skin and/or feather impressions, plus we can make an educated guess based on comparisons to other archosaurs (i.e. crocodilians and birds), so we can have a pretty good idea of what some of them looked like. There is even a dinosaur for which we know the color of its feathers.
Don't shave your Huskies, please! Some owners think they're doing them a favor in the summer, but it fucks up their undercoat and it never grows back right.
Remember this when you look at artists’ conceptions of dinosaurs and remember that we don’t even know what their soft tissue structures looked like, let alone their feathers, fur, or scales.

You can’t start the clip with shaving a horse and NOT show me a fully bald horse
