    Just think about your human friends.

    They’re all apex predators. 😌

      They are omnivores. But cats… Cats are.

    All of my friends are apex predators. Most of my family too (except for the dogs).

        You’re not classified as human?

            This is exactly how someone classified as human would respond to this kind of question.

      This feels generous given the average person, but I see where you’re coming from.

    A few weeks ago, i read about people selectively breeding foxes, panthers and cheetas to make them tameable. So much to apex predators.

    Trivia: those friendly foxes got a curly tail.

      Ah yeah the Siberian fox experiment is interesting. They found that the tamer foxes had a tendency towards neoteny, ie. basically retaining juvenile features and slower development, and they even lost some of their intelligence too which was interesting. The same has happened with dogs, physically they’re closer to juvenile wolves and generally they’re also less intelligent than wolves.

      Didn’t know someone had tried the same with panthers and cheetahs though, that’s pretty surprising. Sounds like a bit of a project to tame panthers of all creatures when even housecats aren’t as domesticated as eg. dogs

        Pretty sure googling that with the panthers was how i got to the siberian fox experiment. Though i have no links, sorry.
