What does it take to teach a bee to use tools? A little time, a good teacher and an enticing incentive. Read more here: http://to.pbs.org/2mpRUAz

“That weird lumpy bee doesn’t have SHIT on me, watch this, KOBE”
@kilalabunnies is my GF and I am so happy
horses could destroy all the cars in the world by kicking them full strength with their hind legs and then we’d have to go back to using horses to go everywhere. it’s a good thing they can’t read this post and do it though
Decided to share these because x-rays are awesome.
So Jocelyn has been having problems for a bit. She’s been regurgitating food. Now, the first regurge I could understand because I bothered her a lot after she ate, so I let it slide. Waited 2-3 weeks and fed again. Then we got another regurge. I figured from an upset stomach of the first one, everything else about her checked out. Started her on probiotics. Fed her a pinkie mouse 3 weeks later. Regurged that. I decided to palpate her for abnormalities and found a lump. Ugh…
At the vet we found out the lump moves which means it’s an impaction. It doesn’t show up too well on the x-rays though. The likely running theory right now is she got impacted…. on fur…. (Stares into the camera like I’m in The Office.)
Basically white lips are known for regurging fur casts from their food, but we’re thinking that didn’t happen this time, and the fur went down instead of up. Since her lower digestive track is not meant for fur, it’s stuck. We managed to reshape it to be easier to pass and moved it down a bit. I may try to work it out a bit more under advisement as well. Until it is out, she is on a liquid diet.
They do naturally consume furred mammals but I guess this can happen too. So basically white lips are the worst.
