Cats have remained extinct in my house since time immemorial and I do not expect they will ever be seen again. But who am I to say they might not not show up in a future drone survey, should some scientist choose to conduct one (without my permission...)

Isn’t this kind of scary?
Especially when considering absolutely freaky warm ocean temps?

Cool! Also, isn’t it super early for whales showing up here?! At least the humpbacks I thought didn’t make an appearance until April.

There's been one bobbing around the Mediterranean since the 2010's

They really should deliver to it a friend.

It snuck through the Panama Canal disguised as a very large kayak.

This is exciting but I have a stupid question: is this a good thing or a bad thing (climate change)? 🐋

tinavstammy.bsky.social•381 days ago

The article says this is likely due to climate change, yeah.

bbny.bsky.social•381 days ago

Drat. Thought so. Couldn’t access the article at first to read it

This made my day, thanks. :)

I guess I have to look up the word ‘extinct.’

NICE.
