This guy sleeps for, like, 16 hours. Runs. Shits. And sleeps again.
No way he’s up to spec. I get maybe…11 hours of sleepy time like a normal human but 16 hours? What the fuck, companion malfunction.
I have a large breed dog, over 100lbs at two years old. Our vet told us for him to sleep 14-18 hours in a twenty four period was fantastic, dogs sleep when they're relaxed, if the dogs young, that's when the growing happens.
I wish I could sleep that much. I'm jealous of our four legged sleepyheaded comrades.
Pretty much all large predators are like that. One of the many ways humans are extremely weird is how relatively active we are compared to other predators in our weight class. Though part of that could be agriculture and industry - people like napping when they don't have to worry about wage labor or the harvest.
Persistence hunting is relatively rare and it's also rare for hunting to account for a significant portion of a group's diet. I don't see it playing a huge role in evolution
Human persistence hunting is how humans do their predator stuff though
It's one of the ways. Homo Erectus would have also been capable of building traps and gathering bugs, practices which wouldn't have left an archeological record.
Homo sapiens shoulders also are able to throw. This suggests spear hunting has existed as long as humans have.
What do you mean, homo sapiens have fingers perfectly suited for typing. This suggests that typing memos for a paycheck was the primary form of hunting as long as homo sapiens have existed.
Okay but there's also spears in the record older than homo sapiens. Also the evidence for persistence hunting is the same, it's literally "humans are uniquely anatomically suited to it and some humans do it therefor..."
We have these enormous brains that are constantly responding to visual and audio stimulus. Birds have the same problem. Everyone just up all the time chirping at each other and looking for snacks.
If your dog is like mine, they'll "rise to the challenge" of whatever activity level you expect of them. When I'm on my A game and walking my dog twice a day and doing training, she has full energy for all of it and can get up and go at any time without warning - but when I slip up or get busy and can't work with her as much, she naturally adapts by sleeping more and eating less.
Look it up. That's a normal amount
You sleeping 11 hours is not though.
You sleeping 11 hours is not though.
Sounds like fake news to me.
I "could" sleep 16h. I try to avoid it since it fucks up my day/plans ....but I have done it before. Im not a dog though.
