>>5034891 >They're not [smart] and it's okay to wipe them out because boomers like them and they're mindless eating machines.
Are you talking lizards or americans? It's hard to tell.
>>5034891
Boomers hate them. Every video you see of a Komodo dragon on facebook has comments filled with old hags complaining about how disgusting and evil they are
>>5034867 (OP)
I don’t think there is a single animal as misunderstood as these. Sure they’re gory predators, but that doesn’t make them any worse than traditionally cute things like bears and wild dogs. They’re pretty docile and there’s a lot of myths about the toxicity of their bite and how they hunt
>>5034963
Nobody likes invasive species but Floridians don't matter, and people being retarded enough to keep wild animals as pets just shows how popular they are.

Derivatives of the Nazi's eugenicist view and Nietzsche's "Man is God" philosophy
The feeling that one needs (and primarily ego) to place himself as judge of mankind even though he is only a man himself
>>5035008
Except nazis were nature freaks. For talking shit like that Göring would send his goofy ass to a concentration camp. "Lets destroy all animals but cattle" was at one point a left wing position.
>>5034867 (OP)
i suspect they're actually quite dumb simply because they dont need to be smart to survive. usually smarter animals developed brains out of necessity.
>>5035048
Most modern self-proclaimed "neo-nazis" are more in the vein of nazbols than German national socialists (disregarding that half of them are just glowies). They also have barely anything to do with the classical definition of right-wing.
>>5034918
I know you're just here to lie, as I'm here to spread the truth. Were it not for boomer tourists, these satanic live feeding events wouldn't happen and nobody would be around to record them. Video recording devices are not a naturally occurring phenomenon. And goats aren't native to Java.
>>5035003
That clip is so much funnier now that I know his head twitches are a breeding signal. He’s so horny he’s trying to get with himself, lmao. >>5035206
Idk where you came from back in 2021, but you need to go back. You’ve posted this shit hundreds of times over the last 4 years. This isn’t healthy or intelligent behavior.
>>5035444
That's a good question. I assume by using the same training techniques you would with a dog. >Puts paw on several objects >Give it a reward for doing it the amount of times the trainer wants
>>5035444 > SAMUEL S. SWEET AND ERIC R. PIANKA REPLY: We based our statement about monitor counting on recent experiments on captive white-throated monitors (Varanus albigularis) by John Phillips, an investigator at the San Diego Zoo. A lizard was fed snails in groups of four. Each snail was placed in a separate compartment connected to three others within a chamber, and the compartments were opened one at a time to allow the monitor to eat the four snails. On finishing the fourth snail, the lizard was allowed into another chamber containing four more snails. >After such conditioning, one snail was removed from some snail quartets. The lizard reacted by searching extensively tier the missing fourth snail, even when it was free to move on to the next group. Similar experiments with yawing numbers of snails in the groups showed that the monitors can count up to six. With groups larger than six, however, the monitors seemed to stop counting: they merely classified them as "lots," eating them all before moving on to the next chamber. Such an ability to count probably evolved as a consequence of raiding nests of reptiles, birds, and mammals, because the average clutch or litter size is about six.
It was a white throat and not a savannah but the same still applies
>>5035444
Fun fact: Most humans can only "instinctively count" to 4 or so. Higher numbers require the mind to make conscious intervention in its own processes. Innate counting ability isn't actually general intelligence, consciousness, etc, it's a hardware skill like extra short term memory or faster visual processing that can enhance consciousness but doesn't imply it.
Particularly lucky humans have an innate comprehension of the number seven. Most people comprehend seven as four and three.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 ... oh fuck it I'm not human I'm never going to school anyways *Gulp*
>>5035689
Going into a normalfag comment section of anything animal related that isn't cutesy bullshit is like stepping into a nuclear reactor, it genuinely upsets me just how fucking stupid the average person is.
>>5035689
My only concern is if this video is staged or not. Too many videos on jewtube of people throwing baby goats to dragons and of course million pity monkey abuse too.
>>5035961
That specific one isn’t. It happened on a mine site. The Komodo dragon videos are frequently staged because they’re easy to do and get views. Komodo dragons are everywhere on the islands so it doesn’t take long to set up and catch a lizard’s attention. Perenties are few and far between so the chances somebody is going to catch a feral cat and hold onto it until they see a perentie are pretty slim
>>5034922
Problem with these is that they aren't retard proof as dogs/cats.
You gotta respect it, and lizard will respect you back.
If you act like a retard around cats nothing really happens(unless we talk big cats like tigers), but if you are asshole to these guys they can kill you. >>5035689
Does anyone have the video of group of dogs trying to bully a tegu until one of the dogs gets his leg fucked up? It's always satisfying when the good guy wins.
>>5034968
It's because they are common enough.
Every kid has had a hamster, so nobody is afraid of them, but throw a mouse in the room, and everyone loses their shit.
I hope that the new generation that is on the internet 24/7 has seen enough cute reptile videos to change their view, so the "not dog/cat therefore bad" boomer view will finally end.
Dogs and cats were selectively bred to pull at heartstrings that originally evolved for humans. Its why people who eat them tend to be cannibals, back over children twice for the lulz, pisslamic shitholes etc
>>5035689
I know its literally dying but why is it not struggling at all? Its feet are right next to the neck, prime for shredding.
This really seems like someone's pet. It just sits there weakly moaning for help, no survival instinct at all
>>5036317 >Problem with these is that they aren't retard proof as dogs/cats
That’s fine because there are next to no Komodo dragons in private hands and those that are usually die before they grow large. Most people who have one have a smuggled baby dragon so any attack is deserved
>>5036762
Perenties in particular eat a lot of venomous snakes and smaller monitors, their skin is very tough. But even if the cat were to try the monitor will just start thrashing around to prevent injury to itself
>>5036767
It does struggle. As soon as it puts up a fight the lizard throws it around to stop it. Also it’s probably exhausted and bleeding out by this point
>>5034920 >Crocodilians, Turtles, Birds and Dinosaurs are consistently liked >Lizards and Snakes are almost always the source of reptile hatred with a few harmless species being exceptions
It starting to sound like it's a lepidosaur problem and not a general reptile problem.
