Y'all can go ahead and start chewing my ass up, but the math is simple, male Carpenter bee + no stinger = seasonal snack
What would you do if you saw one of these out in the ocean
This is the pinecone puffer, Fuguadipoventrus Ajax, Lemonada"s apex predator. Theym tend to live a comfortable life in the warm tropical open oceans and sometimes even brackish water Lemonada..
The females grow to be 46 ft long and they can weigh 15 to 20 Message for about 20 feet long and they weigh 4 to 5 tons.
Despite the fact that they are essentially giant blowfish, they sacrificed the ability to blow up millions of years ago. This is actually a good thing,, playing water balloon while being this big is a dangerous game, to keep a fish that big round and puffy, the elastic stomach of the fish would be at VERY high internal pressure., if they could still puff up,, getting bit by a small shark,, or better yet,even accidentally bumping into a pointy Coral or sea urchin would cause the fish to literally bust.
That extra stomach that used to be for blowing up when they were.. puffer fish sized, is not repurposed to do just an extra digestive stomach so they can eat more food in one sitting
Pinecone puffers the opportunistic, nocturnal,, gluttonous. Sharks, delicious,, large rays and skates, yum, hexapuses,m slimy yet satisying, large cuttlefish and squid, tasty ammonites, Bon Appetie, Deinoforfex, one of their favorites, the blackface fish, well, 30 ft long, three-ton stargazer is a challenging but still filling meal,, sharks, well you can tell by that body plan they're built more for powered than speed, so they usually attack sharks while they're sleeping. Even their own kind he's on the menu.
Pinecone puffers have the most powerful bite force of any animal on Utopia, all of their teeth are fused together into a razor sharp, enamel and dentin guillotine called a monomacrodentata or Dax,, the same structure found in Jacksonstyracodon,., as if this doesn't make things worse they're by forces about 100,000 to 200,000 lb
Once a female pinecone puffer is fully grown, the only thing she fears in life is a bigger puffer.
Thanks to good old BNA, expect them to l move to be anywhere from 2,000 to 6,000 years old
TL/DR? Mrs Puff decided to be a tank,
The ocean is the last place you want to be on during the Jasonian period
Producing Jacons
Jacons,, that's pronounced (jae-kawns) are microscopic organisms that are found almost everywhere on Utopia where there's moisture, from the deepest parts of the ocean. To wet jungles, make some ponds, m even in people's drains and sewers.
There are hundreds of millions of species of Jacons, though the most common species in the one you see now is bacteriocetus Jasminia, the yellow Jacon, which is between 50 and 350 mm micrometers long.
Technically Jacons considered decomposers, they are attracted to decaying organic matter,, typically protein heavy, especially when and that Decatur organic matter is kept soaking wet at all times or submerged in liquid, though they're not actually decomposing the food. They're more like predators or tiny whales, swimming through the rocks and filth eating bacteria by the million.
Be careful, jacons themselves usually aren't directly pathogenic, , but once they establish a population, did they make their presents known. By the biofilm,, this is why rotten food and dead bodies on Utopia turn bright banana yellow after they've been sitting out long enough. While Jacons , seeing food turns yellow like this usually means an overabundance of the food they eat, bacteria,, which usually means the food is so expired that, it's dangerous to smell it, let alone eat it. it's basically the equivalent of a restaurant having a mouse infestation so bad that snakes started to move into the restaurant and get fat
Additionally, the waste byproduct this species produce smells like Jasmine, which is where the "Jasminia" part of their name comes from., don't think this is a good thing this just means if you leave food out too long your house wants to smell like rotten meat, your house will smell like you tried to spray perfume over the rot to cover up the smell.,.
Not to mention Bubbleheads, Globocephalus Sapiens, used to take these as antibiotics.
PSA, mice is NOT a fucking ubstitute for buying food for your frog
Lately I been seeing too many people who have pacman frogs or African bullfrogs, and get them, and get caught up in the morning that mice can be a staple food for them, and no I ain't talking about those fight videos people make where they keep the frogs in empty plastic boxes and feed them everything from mice to scorpions. I'm referring to people who did little research, and somehow concluded that the rodents like a mice and rats are a get out of jail free car for feeding your frog the proper diet. The excuse I be hearing the most something along the lines "mice are basically the complete nutritional diet for a frog, you got the nutrients in the skin, the proteins in the meat, ,, the vitamins in the organs, and the calcium in the bones" people get caught up in the trap of no and you don't have to dust mice would calcium powder or gut load them like you do with certain bugs.
This stuff is halfway true, if you take this into account, a mouse is essentially a complete packet of nutrition for a frog, BUT, you know, it's just one teensy little part people who do this are missing. A mouse is also a complete packet of fat, m and a 30 Green's mouth is a lot of food, m even for a big pixie frog.
Once a month or once every two or three months this is a good boost, but remember that Pac-Man's and pixies are ambush predators, you can't just put them on a treadmill when they gain weight,m and if you feed them mice and nothing else, every last one of those calories will go straight to fat.
And then people will use the excuse of "as long as you only feed him once a week,, you can see the many times as you want and they won't be obese" hell no, mice have too much fat in them.,m if you try to sustain a frog on mice, you will end up with fsn obese amphibian with hepatic lipidosis that you're lucky to make it to 5 years old.
Quick Google search will tell you that these frogs eat anything that fits into class INCLUDING mice, nowhere does it say a Pac-Man frog or an African bulldog is exclusively mice.,, any pet store or exploded tells you that you can just veto bugs out of their diet and just substitute them for rodents once your frog gets bigger is dirty liar and they will get your frog killed
Tldr, Pac-Man frog is not a goddamn ball python., if you want one,, you better be willing to do some exploring and come up with the diverse mixture of insects, worms, m but occasional mouse,, etc these frogs need
My frog is "cigaretting" food. Is this normal?
I noticed when I feed big Bill a big meal,, say a nightcrawlers in this case or a mouse , or rat pinky, he will he does this thing where he will take a pause mid meal and justh sit there with half of the worm or the mouse's legs and tail hanging out of his mouth for several seconds before he finishes the swallowing process, , he used to just scarf it down. I was just wondering if anybody else had fallen as it did this, is it something to keep an eye out for
I only ever see him do this with nightcrawlers and mice, everything I'll be eat., he just swallows in no time lol
So I had big Jay for a few days now and I can't get him to eat a single thing. We tried every type of food under the sun, lettuce, nightcrawlers, hornworms, collard greens, blueberries, Carpenter bees, the males of course. Nothing works if you give him any sort of food he will just walk over it like it don't exist. Is it normal for these turtles to do this and how long do they last without food

​
The Jasonian period has its monsters on land, giant spiders,, giant insects, angelodonts, reptiles and amphibians galore. Butn as with most things, those creatures are cute pets compared to what's in the seas. There's so much more
Oceans during the Jasonian are warm,, very warm, so warm in fact,m that st certain times of the day, you can take a nice bath in it., ocean temperatures especially around Abigalia get as much as 85 to 90° f this combined with the extreme plant growth and plentiful nutrients in the driver for things like this..
First let's get something straight, the giganta ray is not a wimpy filter feeding manta ray, it's not a skate. It's a stingray and this stingray right here is one of the largest fish to ever swim the sess., female grow to about 50 60 to 70 ft long and they weigh between 50 and 60 tons.,, the males are about 30 to 40 ft long and 5 to 10 tons.
The gigantic is indigenous the oceans of South Abigalia and zLemonada , though they can sound as far south as Abilene mm Island,, not counting the migrations they do.
About those migrations. , this is how they reproduce.m at night when zBeacon is full, the females of these stingrays will line UPS next to each other tail to tail, they will die like thrir cloacas wide. About 5 ft, and swimming in Amos straight line Spirit out eggs., each female can weigh anywhere from 2,000 to 10,000 eggs, the mouse will swim above them and around them, fertilizing the eggs as they sit down into the kelp forests and coral reefs below.
Did I get away is omnivorous, they eat Allopods freshwater such as crabs,, lobster, and shrimp, ammonites, nautiluses,, technopods like octopus squid and cuttlefish, slugs and SN, clams, algae, aquatic plants, small fish and Billworms.
The only thing a fully grown female are the Jadefish shark and the pinecone puffer, not only are they big but then stinger at the end of their tail is at least 6 ft long I'm connected to a gland that can deliver 50 gallons of venom in one sting.
Cuz something like a human they're mostly docile, you are too small for them to see you as a threat they would have to use a stinger on,, provided you don't get underneath them,
You're not at risk of being eaten.
Thanks to that good old BNA, you can expect these guys to live for about 2 2,000 to 4,000 years.
