I love lemurs because they’re funny, silly, cute, and endlessly diverse - there’s over 100 kinds! I’ve also always had a soft spot for them because they’re kind of like monkeys, but weird. As a neurodiverse human, I’m like a human (a type of monkey)… but weird.

What about you? What’s your favorite, and why?

    I absolutely love seagulls, obnoxious little shits as they are. I love watching their interactions, the pecking orders and food squabbles. Watching a whole flock fight over a stray piece of trash, where one by one each bird fights the crowd to grab it only to realize it isn’t food and drop it into the next fight, is peak humor for me.

      Seagulls are so charming. They’re actually really good parents, too! They share childcare equally between both parents, including sitting on the eggs during incubation, and are very protective of their babies.
