Bonobos!! ! They are amazing because they share about 98.4% of their genes with humans. And I find their looks and behaviour fascinating.

They also happen to be among the most sexual of primates and of animals in general.

I know yeah, they use it for conflict resolution. It's funny because they are that human-like it's uncomfortable to see them mating on video clips and stuff, you just want to turn it off in politeness. If I ever got to see bonobos in the wild and I approached 2 having sex I'd probably be like "oh, sorry, I'll leave you to it" then walk away :lmao:

Pensieve, love this picture. Looks a lot like my dog :D

It's actually Inspector Rex. One of my favourite TV shows. I've loved German Shepherds since I was a toddler when we took care of an old German Shepherd and then I saw K9 and All Dogs Go to Heaven. And my obsession just increased from there.

I like all animals, but I am especially fond of guinea pigs, capybara, opossums, and marmots. I really like amphibians, too.

Cats and horses. I like chickens, too, but I love cats most. As to what they say about me, well...my cat doesn't stay still in the sense that she's always moving her tail, I don't know if that counts as stimming, but if it does, well, I stim, too. She likes high places, and to observe critters. She gets very involved whenever something catches her interest, like a bug, and she'll carefully and cautiously walk, and pay much attention to it. That's like me when anything I'm interested comes out. I become oblivious. :lol: But she's so beautiful in elegant, unlike me.
