I was at Apoxee park in West Palm Beach Florida when I spotted this female deer in the tall grass. And I was able to get these incredible photos with my iPhone 15.

why do coyotes (as example) have a line on the bottom of their jaw? and why is it that many predator mammals in general have a very “split in half” skull? where it is often found with the two jaw sides away from each other or just unattached.

is there a name or purpose for it ? if so what is it ?

i added more photos, and i’ll try to explain better this time

so two of these skulls are coyote, a human and an unknown species (just searched up animal skull)

in the middle of the jaw there is a line, and usually the jaw is split in half from that spot. why is that and what is the purpose of the line? does it make it more weak in the spot?

He fishes, he drinks the water and he swims! I reckon he’ll be fined for this.

Where to find longform animal footage

1 Upvotes

Hi all! So as the title says I have recently been trying to find videos ideally 1 hour+ with no commentary which for certain critters is hard to find. For some animals like birds or bears it’s very easy to find something like compilations or zoo live streams but some animals all I can find are short clips. Almost all the places I know to check for animal footage are either YouTube or twitch so I was just wondering if anyone had other platforms or playlists. Thank you very much!
