Submit your Halloween pumpkin pics to /r/horror's carving competition!

A place to share interesting photographs and pictures. Feel free to post your own, but please read the rules first (see below), and note that we are not a catch-all for general images (of screenshots, comics, etc.)

Spoiler code

Please mark spoilers like this:
[text here](/spoiler)

Hover over to read.

Rules

  1. No screenshots, or pictures with added or superimposed text. This includes image macros, comics, info-graphics and most diagrams. Text (e.g. a URL) serving to credit the original author is exempt.

  2. No gore or porn. NSFW content must be tagged.

  3. No personal information. This includes anything hosted on Facebook's servers, as they can be traced to the original account holder. Stalking & harassment will not be tolerated.

  4. No solicitation of votes (including "cake day" posts), posts with their sole purpose being to communicate with another redditor, or [FIXED] posts. DAE posts go in /r/DoesAnybodyElse. "Fixed" posts should be added as a comment to the original image.

  5. Submissions must link directly to a specific image file or to an image hosting website with minimal ads. We do not allow blog hosting of images ("blogspam"), but links to albums on image hosting websites are okay. URL shorteners are prohibited.

  • If your submission appears to be filtered but definitely meets the above rules, please send us a message with a link to the comments section of your post (not a direct link to the image). Don't delete it as that just makes the filter hate you!

  • If you come across any rule violations, please report the submission or message the mods and one of us will remove it!

Please also try to come up with original post titles. Submissions that use certain clichés/memes will be automatically tagged with a warning.

Animals just can't look mean when they are eating a watermelon. http://imgur.com/a/Ifbkw

That hippo still looks scary as hell

[–]CitizenPremier 77 points78 points ago

Aww, it's gonna pop a watermelon the size of my head in its jaws!

That is nightmare material

[–]kevro 3 points4 points ago

From Wikipedia:

"it can easily outrun a human. Hippos have been clocked at 30 km/h (19 mph) over short distances. The hippopotamus is one of the most aggressive creatures in the world and is often regarded as one of the most dangerous animals in Africa."

An open mouth signals that the hippo feels threatened.

There should be a subreddit for this!

[–]mrferret 1 point2 points ago

I really hope this becomes a self-sustaining sub-reddit and that I check back in a year and people would have fed hundreds of animal species watermelons.

[–]chodechugging 0 points1 point ago

Especially with those bubbles near the nose.

[–]speedonthis -1 points0 points ago

[–]JohanNorseman 0 points1 point ago

Is it just me or does watermelons make the most innocent looking animals seem threatening? It looks like they're chewing on human flesh!

Thank you for not writing a stupid, inane, unfunny headline like 99% of the idiots on Reddit do with every fucking submission. Clear, and to the point: that's what Reddit needs more of.

[–]Connor6 8 points9 points ago

Why the hell is the wolf eating the watermelon. I thought wolves were carnivores.

[–]fondots 6 points7 points ago

They're in the order carnivora, but as I understand it, they're evolved to be pretty opportunistic and even in the wild have been known to supplement their diet with a lot of other stuff. I remember reading once that dogs (still technically the same species as wolves) can live full and healthy lives on a completely vegan diet. Of course most people don't feed their dogs vegan diets because those pointy teeth and scary bite-forces clearly aren't meant for just salad-munching.

cats on the other hand, can't go vegan.

[–]FUMN 3 points4 points ago

My dogs eat grass and plastic bags....

Pretty sure those are not meat.

[–]Dracius 3 points4 points ago

Wolves and other canine are non-obligate carnivores, since they're capable of producing their own Taurine.

Mammalian taurine synthesis occurs in the pancreas via the cysteine sulfinic acid pathway. In this pathway, the sulfhydryl group of cysteine is first oxidized to cysteine sulfinic acid by the enzyme cysteine dioxygenase. Cysteine sulfinic acid, in turn, is decarboxylated by sulfinoalanine decarboxylase to form hypotaurine

Wolf factoid:

Wolves will supplement their diet with fruit and vegetable matter: they willingly eat the berries of mountain ash, lily of the valley, bilberries, blueberries and cowberry. Other fruits include nightshade, apples and pears. They readily visit melon fields during the summer months

[–]Blenderate 3 points4 points ago

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnivore

"...derives its energy and nutrient requirements from a diet consisting mainly or exclusively of animal tissue..."

I'm guessing the wolf falls into the non-exclusive category.

[–]justskidding 0 points1 point ago

They are not obligate carnivores.

And as a future mammalogist, the idea that any animal in the Carnivora order is a carnivore is super annoying. They are Carnivorans, not carnivores. Not all carnivorans are carnivores (i.e. Pandas, Bat-Eared Foxes, Raccoons), and not all carnivores are carnivorans (A good mammal example would be tasmanian devils being carnivores but not carnivorans.)

If I could change the taxonomy, I'd switch "carnivora" to "carnassia", Carnassials being a certain kind of tooth all carnivorans have, and that no other extant group has.

Pretty much all canines are opportunistic and have at least some vegetable matter in their diets. Deviations from this are pretty much only Bat-Eared Foxes, which are 99% insectivores. Maned Wolves may eat over 50% fruit in their diets.

[–]ahalenia 1 point2 points ago

Dessert!

[–]neish 9 points10 points ago

Holo the wise wolf wishes she had cheeks to make eating watermelons, and apples, easier.

[–]dangoodspeed 4 points5 points ago

It's the rare watermelon wolf. Known for its lower jaw's resemblance to a watermelon.

[–]bboysmasterz 2 points3 points ago

Oh hell to the no.

Fuck everything about your state. I hope the wolves take some of you fuckers out.

[–]justskidding 0 points1 point ago

If wolf conservationists cared about wolf extinction, they'd focus more effort on Red wolves, Dholes and Ethiopian wolves. Grey wolves are not going extinct anytime soon. It's messed up, but why put so much effort on a really secure species?

[–]tomakeredditsuckless 1 point2 points ago

Go educate yourself about how FUCKED wolves can be. I don't live in that state. I know nothing about their situation currently. I don't care one way or another about wolves or animal rights generally. Historically(and even now in places like Russia) wolves fuck shit up. They devastate live stock and can be dangerous. All I'm saying is historically there is a reason we killed them.

This is Bono, one of many wolves in the Wolf Haven International sanctuary in Washington state. Just thought I'd give these guys some recognition. The sanctuary is a fun an educational place to visit, and one of my favorite camping memories!
