Urethra is a weirder name for a dog

Wearing its victim down through constant negative remarks, cruel pranks, and petty bullying.

what are these cards? i remember seeing those ages ago but i can't remember the name 😐

[–] shuzuko@midwest.social 11 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Wildlife Fact File cards! You got a nifty 3 ring binder and then they would send you these cards in the mail as part of a subscription. I wish I still had mine!

[–] NycterVyvver@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

I still have my original collection from the 1970s. Back then, they sent you a plastic green box (in those days, it was called "Illustrared Wildlife Treasury") to hold all your cards. That was before the 3-ring binder.

Love dholes! And it’s even card 69, nice.

They also make super cute bird like sounds when they’re hunting.

I love dholes. If I ever suffer a personality altering brain injury and become a serial killer, this is going to be my MO. Little whistles in the underbrush.

[–] noxy@yiffit.net 10 points 11 months ago (3 children)

My fursona!

Another fun fact: dholes chirp and whistle, one might mistake their calls for bird sounds!

Wow, I remembering having these cards/book when I was a kid. I wonder what ever happened to them.
