Clients will often report sudden changes in their dog’s personality on or about the time the puppy reaches puberty. Older dogs may appear lethargic and obese, but hypothyroidism in younger dogs may have the opposite behavioral signs (Landsberg, et al., 2003).
Neutering usually does not help correct they hyperactivity and is a good indication that there may be something physiological going on with the dog.
Altruistic Behavior-(Wolves)- appears most obviously in kin relationships but may also be evident amongst wider social groups, in which an animal sacrifices its own well-being for the benefit of another animal. Wolves hunt and bring meat to their pack.

When cornered or threatened coachwhips will sometimes raise their upper body and strike, sometimes lunging their whole body forward. While they are not venomous, this behavior can be very intimidating to potential predators (and photographers).
I'm pretty sure this is a female Brown Headed Cowbird, and as such is one of my least favorite bird species. Females do not build nests of their own, but instead look for other birds nests to lay their eggs in, relying on the host species to feed and raise their young. (Which most do.) They've been known to invade the nests of over 220 species of other birds. This individual was foraging on the ground as I walked by trying to track down a couple Blue Jays. She did not fly away as I walked closer, instead she fluffed up her feathers and kept opening her beak while not making a sound. One guess I have is that this might be a juvenile and was trying to solicit food? As my title suggests, I am pretty baffled by this behavior. If anyone has seen this before, I would welcome any thoughts you have. Have a great weekend everyone!

Methimazole is the most common antithyroid (thionamide) medication used in cats.
Methimazole is available in tablets and as a transdermal patch. The transdermal patch has fewer side effects than the tablets.
Other side effects may include: hematologic problems, hepatopathy, and self-induced facial excoriations (Stortz, et al., 2004).
The biggest advantage of this medication is that it is inexpensive.

Two Formica ants in trophallaxis (NOT KISSING). They are exchanging nutrients, so that one can keep feeding on yucca sap, and the other can carry food back to the colony for feeding larvae, the queen, and workers that don't leave the nest.
