For an image subreddit with minimal rules, check out /r/images

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.

  6. No animated images. Please submit them to /r/gif, /r/gifs, or /r/reactiongifs instead.

  • 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.

Yes! I was trying to figure out what movie I was remembering this from. Here's the actual scene.

[–]SweetNeo85 3 points4 points ago

Sho'im who's boss Berno!

[–]untouchable_face 2 points3 points ago

First thing I thought of!

[–]iama_XXL 2 points3 points ago

Came here looking for a Rescuers reference, left satisfied.

[–]amazingboy97 1 point2 points ago

Oh, LAWDY! I love that movie, and now you've got me in a mood to go watch it.

[–]MandiSue 1 point2 points ago

I came here to post exactly that. Just watched it last night, lol.

[–]John_Galt_XII 1 point2 points ago

I must now rewatch this movie.

[–]TheSickBoy 81 points82 points ago

That's actually really well done for a snake. Source: I do voluntary, educational taxidermy for the local zoo (can't specify which, they flip out over that shit, sadly). Snakes are notoriously difficult, especially in an open-mouth fashion. The pose could be a bit better at the base especially (not very convincing), but the painting and artificial bits in the mouth are pretty damned great, as is the squirrel. Of course the true test is that of time since that is what really speaks to the preservation methods used and the skill of the painting.

Sure, it's tacky and corny as hell, but skill in any field should be recognized. Personally I'm more into skulls and bones rather than oddly posed mounts, but meh... I just like seeing how shit works and constantly being amazed by it.

[–]Excentinel 54 points55 points ago

Only on Reddit can you read an insightful, knowledgeable review of a squirrel riding a snake like a bull.

[–]reParaoh 3 points4 points ago

A bull snake!

note: it is not actually a bull snake.

[–]TheSickBoy 2 points3 points ago

It's only at this moment that I truly realize how much of my life is a weird as hell roller coaster from the Twilight Zone, in Technicolor, with Smell-o-Vision and migraine-inducing red/blue 3D glasses... and a ridiculous, completely unpredictable amount of rotting corpses. Ew. Yep. BEHOLD: A CONUNDRUM!

You seriously don't want to know what a mere 24 hours in 115o F does to a snow leopard skull. True, horrible as (puking sounds here) example from this last summer. Crime dramas don't know shit when it comes to the week-let-alone-day-old corpse stank. Just sayin'.

[–]lube_thighwalker 2 points3 points ago

How much would a similar design cost? I love the idea of a real life Rango on a Rattle snake.

[–]Forythias 0 points1 point ago

My dad is a taxidermist and I can say that because of the difficulty of a snake probably ~$500ish.

[–]TheGizmojo 120 points121 points ago

[–]Shorthoplaser 30 points31 points ago

[–]KidneyStoneCowboy 11 points12 points ago

Wow, you don't realize how much skill it takes to make dead things look alive until you see some really shitty taxidermy. OP is an artist.

[–]TXrichard 7 points8 points ago

That fox sitting in the chair ever so casually is just...so pleasant.

[–]DomoVahkiin 8 points9 points ago

Pleasant? I would say fucking terrifying, but to each their own.

[–]leeluhh 3 points4 points ago

So umm... Are these like taxidermy fuck ups? I completely regret looking at these. I might not sleep tonight for fear of derpy animals appearing in my dreams

[–]mrstrictmachine 4 points5 points ago

These look like real-life versions of the characters from RatherGood.com

[–]sireWilliam 4 points5 points ago

I'm actually fine with this and find it.. humanely hilarious.

[–]nerdyogre254 2 points3 points ago

It's the bundaberg rum bear, but with a slight touch of the style of Wallace and Gromit characters.

[–]yeebok 1 point2 points ago

dat teef

[–]wsitu 5 points6 points ago

This is seriously some of the most disturbing stuff I've ever seen. I get nauseous just thinking about how these were once living things, but they've been turned semi-permanently into these freakish, grotesque inanimate objects.

[–]GaryDuder 1 point2 points ago

I like the polar bear with herbivore teeth.

[–]Tao_of_darren 0 points1 point ago

At fist I was laughing at these and now I'm slowly becoming more and more terrified.

I came here for chuck testa and was not disappointed.

[–]Shardwing 45 points46 points ago

I can testafy to this.

[–]scoobs 9 points10 points ago

Ugh that was terrible. Have an upvote.

[–]LadySpace 10 points11 points ago

I was really hoping that was a link to a gif of your namesake. I'm slightly sad now.

[–]Legitamte 8 points9 points ago

I guess I'm not sure how I feel about the fact that you have a comic featuring a talking camel anus, but it isn't what inspired your username.

That means that at least two different people independently created something featuring a talking camel anus, and that's about three more people than I was expecting.

[–]LadySpace 5 points6 points ago

Uh... Maybe? I have no idea, actually.

[–]buckygrad 1 point2 points ago

Thanks for letting us know!

[–]feanor726 9 points10 points ago

I love seeing old, burned out memes that are now acceptable because they've become ironic.

That's something a family will fight over in estate proceedings.

[–]lostNcontent 6 points7 points ago

I'm afraid of the way you think.

[–]Excentinel 5 points6 points ago

Because I'm a GENIUS.

[–]reParaoh 0 points1 point ago

That actually seems really cheap for what it is. I would expect 1-2 thousand for a sculpture like that. Maybe if it was bronze, I guess. Animals are cheaper than metal.

[–]IrregardingGrammar 1 point2 points ago

Aw man. If I weren't in college and had disposable income.....

[–]the_icebear 1 point2 points ago

I would like for everyone to go to that link, and take a moment to admire the size of the nuts on that squirrel. Very appropriate...

Does anyone read The Bloggess? All I could think of is that Jenny would LOVE this!

[–]lightningusagi 0 points1 point ago

I came in here to say that as well. Every time I see stuff like this, I think of her first.

[–]raitai 2 points3 points ago

I went on an illegal import raid at an airport and as a bonus, we got to open up and rifle through crates of people's big game hunting trophies from Africa. For the most part it was just heads of some huge antelope, etc. But some guy apparently got a warthog.

He had it stuffed standing on its back legs, one front leg on a cane, the other holding up a little table. It was simultaneously the funniest and most infuriating thing I have seen done to an animal.

[–]rapsyourpost 2 points3 points ago

We got a squirrel riding a snake

and as long as you're awake

you can appreciate the wake that this post will make

this looks like ME riding a motherfucking drake.

look at this reptilian cousin set free,

it doesn't take a dozen to see

that this is some shit to sight-see.

the little rodent has a little hat and it's easy for me to rap

about shit that's wack like that,

i went from thinking it was a pack rat to a mole rat to a house cat,

I still don't fucking know why it has a cowboy hat.
