A robber fly eating what appears to be a species of biting fly. This act of predation is occurring on my Subaru in Framingham, #Massachusetts. The biting fly had it coming. An iPhone 5 photo taken 13 July 2013. Ish.

STOP idealizing pastors, coaches, and teachers. Recognize that predators seek out these very positions for easy access to prey. https://www.wboc.com/news/seaford-children-s-pastor-arrested-on-child-pornography-charges/article_163b5faa-d25f-11ee-9de7-bf34ff99b516.html

Need help on 2 images of exposed - one who tried doing smear campaign, when I spoke out about how she abused me, my family & using social media to con/manipulate ppl. She's dangerous & recruits naive young POC, vulnerable older POC, vulnerable white gals into sex work. 2 of my friends experienced this with her & they didn't believe my early warnings, til they were abused by her & abandoned in a town they knew no one.
If you can help me, let me know. Dangerous person.

Going public about this because 6 young #women were recruited, #abused & #exploited by this person & one other white ass #pretendian. Both travelling across #Canada because neither has any home(by privileged choice - which most of us #POC don't have). Grifting, sex working(which I'm OK with when it's adult choices) BUT recruiting vulnerable youths, giving them drugs, #pimp pulling in w/gifting mass materials & then forcing girls to PAY IT BACK. They're PIMPS.

Oust these female #predators!

Varying temperatures prior to interaction can dramatically alter predation roles, turning #bacterial prey into #predators, suggesting that more microbe-microbe killing mechanisms may mediate predation than has been recognized... @marievasse &co in #PLOSBiology https://plos.io/48KDFxI

"Would younger who had never known a Mull without still see them as an unwelcome presence, imposed upon them by clueless citified worshipers?

"Or would they have gotten used to them, enjoyed the fruits of the they attract—up to £8-million (US $10-million) according to one estimate—and maybe even learned to love them a little bit?"

New York State might ban wildlife killing contests.

Note: not hunting. Just contests, for entertainment and profit, where people use all manner of killing devices, to kill the most, or the biggest, or the smallest of local predator populations. Sometimes participants entirely wipe out a local population. Seems like a good idea to me.

Speculative Astrobiology

Alien Life on Jupiter, #spaceart by David A. Hardy

A number of scientists and SF writers, including Carl Sagan, Arthur C. Clarke and Ben Bova have postulated #life among the clouds of gas-giant #planets like #Jupiter, floating between the cold upper layers and areas where internal heating creates updrafts of organic materials. Here we see grazing 'floaters' and manta-like #predators

SMALL BUT MIGHTY: WHY ANTARCTIC KRILL ARE WORTH FIGHTING FOR

Experts call for action to protect vast areas of the #SouthernOcean and help safeguard the shrimp-like crustaceans at the base of the food web.

July 24, 2023 - by Tara Lohan

If you love #penguins, #whales and a livable #climate, then it might be time to stand up for Antarctic #krill.

“Krill play such a fundamental role in the ecosystem, not just for the top #predators, but also for smaller predators,” says Kim Bernard, an associate professor at Oregon State University who’s currently in Antarctica studying the crustaceans. “Almost everything down here feeds on them. And if they don’t feed directly on Antarctic krill, they’ll feed on something that does.”

Dear #MarvelComics, I just want the #Predators to be the main characters. I care little for the humans, they are just prey…
