I’ve only been abroad one time, and there were little gecko/lizard things everywhere, climbing up walls and scurrying across roads, and nobody cared. I was constantly fascinated but to the locals they’re just kinda there.

Bonus question to anyone who visited the UK - was there anything that fascinated you but I’d be taking for granted?

Pic unrelated.

    But please don’t eat it!

    In my defense, in addition to finding out after the fact that armadillos carry leprosy, I found out that the one I ate was roadkill.

      Omg that sounds foul! I to Uber in a small town and some rider saw a road kill whitetail with it’s legs starting to create an obtuse angle it was so bloated, and seriously said we should pick it up.

      First, I’ve been hunting before and cleaned my own deer once (but don’t plan on doing it again unless it’s the collapse of the food supply chain)

      Second, that being said I’m not opposed to it cause I understand a healthy population needs occasional culling of the weak and/or diseased.(I know that may sound heartless, but it’s legit how nature works)

      And lastly, who the fuck looks at a animal that’s been dead for an unknown amount of time and thinks “dinner”‽
