The first things I learned when I woke up today:

[jpaulgibson@mastodon.ie]

@skinnylatte and if grolars mate with pizzlies? (not sure its even possible) their offspring - somewhat miraculously - are grizzlies (or polars)? … now my head hurts and i may find it difficult to fall asleep tonight.

[nev@flipping.rocks]

@Iwillyeah @skinnylatte I faintly remember learning it but cool details are also welcome

[iwillyeah@mastodon.ie]

@nev @skinnylatte same as that, just read it as a passing fascinating detail when I was breastfeeding and wondering wft was happening to me.

[cshlan@dawdling.net]

@Iwillyeah @skinnylatte
Same!

[iwillyeah@mastodon.ie]

@cshlan @skinnylatte honestly the best skill I ever developed at any point in my life. Manatees may be peak evolution from that perspective.

[nicolai@babka.social]

@skinnylatte are the grolars and the pizzlys fertile?

[benjamincox@writing.exchange]

@skinnylatte @JillsJoy I’d rather be a grolar than a pizzly. And that’s something I didn’t think I would ever type but here we are. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[jillsjoy@nerdjoy.social]

@benjamincox @skinnylatte 😂😂😂

[brouhaha@mastodon.social]

@skinnylatte
Lions and tigers and bears, oh my!

When a one hump camel has a baby with a two bumped camel, they make a camel known as a hybrid camel, which sounds boring compared to grolars.

I was curious how many humps they would have. One giant one

Coyotes + gray wolves are ‘coywolf’ or ‘wolfotes’

[skinnylatte@hachyderm.io]

Zebras and donkeys create:

Zonkey, zebrass, zebronkey, zedonk, zebadonk, zenkey or deebra

[malachai@furry.engineer]

@skinnylatte boosting for "zebrass"

[johnzajac@dice.camp]

@skinnylatte

Not coyowos or wolyotes?

[minego@pdx.social]

@skinnylatte This breaks my system... A dromedrary looks like a D and a bactrian looks like a B (on their sides...)

This new camel doesn't look lke an H.

[inherentlee@flipping.rocks]

@skinnylatte thanks I just read this to my wife and couldn't finish saying it out loud bc I was laughing too much

***pizzly***

[inherentlee@flipping.rocks]

@skinnylatte her take: "look, if a grizzly bear and a polar bear get together, I don't care what it's called, I'm leaving"

[adhdeanasl@beige.party]

@skinnylatte 2 parts donkey and one part badger is a Badonkadonk

[inquiline@assemblag.es]

@skinnylatte

and to think i only knew about zenkeys!!! 😂

HT @beadsland

[slothrop@chaos.social]

@skinnylatte “zedonk” is the sound a German makes when they hit their head on something
