This Tumblr thread has a bit of everything. It starts out as an existential post about building treehouses, transitions to plants waging wars on each other, and eventually evolves to a full on stress post about the monstrous force that is the Kudzu plant, basically consuming everything in its path.

Yay, a fun and educational Tumblr thread that highlights the fact that "fully orbed" owls are not to be messed with. In fact, a fully orbed owl is basically squared up, and ready to drop "hands." 

It's no secret that Australian wildlife runs the gamut of alien, to huge, to venomous, to dangerous, to huge again, to just plain freaky.

Tumblr hits it out of the park, yet again.

Trees just keep on growing, man. Sometimes they end up growing around other objects placed in their vicinity. This can result in it looking like trees are a bunch of hungry fellas, just trying to enjoy a meal. Fun stuff. 

Well, how about that for a trippy Quora rabbit hole. This Quora user asked people if ants could scream? She was convinced after "hearing" them while watering down her patio. 

Rob Arnold has spent a dizzying amount of time sifting through washed up litter, and has some interesting and informative things to say about the plastic he's seen. Some of this stuff can even be traced back to specific incidents from decades ago, which is crazy to think about.

In response to reports of lower pollution and animals running around towns while everyone is holed up at home, Twitter has responded to the "we are the virus" concept with some jocular memery. Lo and behold, the majestic highway shark is coming back to the interstate.
