Some dogs are not "hard wired" to refuse raw meat. Diet is often an imprinted behaviour. I see it often in other peoples falcons...someone will feed a falcon exclusively DOC's then wonder why it wont...

goatfreak is right, the most common problem with goldfish in captivity is that they are commonly overfed. Their stomach is the same size as their eyeball! overfeeding causes infections in the swim...

Depending on where in the world you are, you could have been breaking the law. There is no reason why you need to take pictures of her eggs. You disturbed a wild animal that was incubating eggs for...

Welcome to the forum, Ok, this is going to be a weird question, but i need to know if what i have heard is true....

Is it true koala's are threatened due to the fact 80% of them have chlamydia?

Misguided kindness! The animal is a trained working animal, by feeding it you can be interfering in the animals training. Leave it alone, it can find food if it needs to.

Our understanding of animal empathy and alutristic behaviour is an exciting part of science which is starting to show some amazing things.
So far, scientists can not yet show any "human" trait that...

Welcome!
Im ben, nice to meet you

We upset the balance long ago, fox hunting was an integral part of managing our wildlife, it (despite many peoples uninformed opinions) was commonly accepted among experts and vets to be the most...

They have long been thought of as purely carniverous, but in light of new research it shows that one of the differences between wolves and dogs is down to their ability to process carbohydrates....

I agree with the last two posts on the first page, do not force an unnatural diet on your dog because of your beliefs. Dogs are naturally omnivores and capable of digesting carbohydrates, but the...

this is a somewhat useless question, any dog can be good around kids depending on the ability of the owner to train the animal... people are often misinformed as to what dogs have good...

I have a lot of medical supplies for my animals, ranging from enrofloxacins to iodine, bandages to things as simple as hair bobbles (to stop splaying legs in chicks)
Everyone should have a basic...

My falcons are flown daily, they are free, they can fly away any time they want yet they dont, When i was younger i had a redtailed hawk, he did fly away....6 months later while walking home from...

I have spent time in zoo's and the main reason for the bars and moats is mainly for the protection of the people, you will always get one person who will try reading a bible to a tiger (which did...

I am open to alternatives, after all thats how we managed to treat polio in the end. But, scientists have come a long way, we have a higher chance of surviving cancer than ever before and only...

This is going to sound like one of the weirdest tips EVER but...its a tip my grandfather taught me and it has more than proved itself with over 20 ferrets over the years....

Hold the ferret and...

Definitely one of my all time favourite animals....and thats saying something with the array i have worked with!
They are just such friendly little curious characters

One of my old ferrets many years ago was called archie, cracking hob he was, soft as muck, thought he was a dog and would play fight with my actual dog

in a variety of ways. basically the ferrets job is to go down the warren, the rabbits smelling a natural predator evacuate the warren pretty sharpish.... above ground is where the variety comes in,...

Few points to make, firstly....go to dog training classes even before you have a dog, there are millions of people out there -well intentioned i will add- that have dogs they dont know how to train....

Read about her before, nothing more than anecdotal evidence, some success more than likely relying on good ol placebo effect (which has been known to put cancer into remission)

You should be...

Sorry but life is not that simple, only a child would think so.
For instance, your dog catches a rabbit with myxomatosis, the rabbit is already slowly dying and now has a punctured lung on top of...

Fear itself rarely causes depression, by that statement humans who watch horrors should be hanging themselves daily. Not only that, how do you think wild prey species cope? animals can literally die...

Before i sign anything i would need references, to vets who can prove any animals are still conscious after the dispatch method was used. I need to see proof that the dispatch method is actually...

Theyre mans best friend because we have bred them to be that way for many thousands of years....before that i imagine it was merely an aquaintance with convenient similarities
