Everything looks sad at the zoo.

The pandas usually seem to be enjoying themselves, but they might just be too dumb to know better

Them and koalas.

Smooth and round, no ridges or bumps no valleys or humps. All ideas slid right off like a water slide. Smooth Brain.

The panda only still exists at all because of human intervention. They are a carnivore (based on digestive system) that elects to subsist off of grass (bamboo). They don't even have the capability of metabolizing cellulose!

They are the very definition of an evolutionary dead-end.

Human intervention via deforestation; loss of food source and habitat, is precisely what has brought them near extinction. They are not dead end. They were adapted to their habitat, which had abundant resources before human intervention.

Animals in captivity are very different from animals in nature. Orcas for example, in nature they've never attacked a human but in captivity they have killed many

The fact that they are kept in the zoo makes everything sadder.

A large group of penguins is not a pack, it is a colony.

u/ArtificialHalo 20h ago

I'd have called them a Formality of penguins

u/TrumpDesWillens 10h ago

Wouldn't it be "flock" cause they're birds?

u/Baers89 21h ago

When on land they are known as a “waddle” of penguins

u/Thin_Confusion_2403 21h ago

And a “raft” when in the water. So this activity is a raftwaddle.

A waddle of penguins exiting the ocean

Later, this same group of penguin gang members robbed the boat. "They looked so sweet and harmless" said Captain Mark Teo, "I'll never think the same of penguins after they stuck my first mate with a fish bone shiv."

When someone yells "Burgers are ready!" At the pool party.

u/FoogYllis 17h ago

Not sure I like calling them a pack. I’d prefer party. They are wearing tuxedos after all.
