• 5 items every prepper should consider for emergencies
    Alright guys, today I want to give you five items every prepper should have, and these are not the typical rice and beans or the flashlight everyone talks about. These are real tools that give you an advantage in a crisis.
    First is a gas siphon pump. Most people forget how fast gas stations run out during any disaster. If the power is down, the pumps are dead. A siphon pump lets you pull fuel from abandoned equipment, cars,, lawnmowers, generators, anything that has fuel in it. You stay mobile, you keep your generator running, and you are not stuck hoping a gas station magically opens back up.
    Next is a bulletproof jacket. Yes, they make these. Level 3A jackets that look like normal clothing. I talked about this inside Prepper Academy. You get quiet protection without drawing attention. In a real crisis you do not want to look tactical. You want to blend in and still be protected from handgun threats. These jackets are perfect for that.
    Third is sandbags. Preppers forget about these. Sandbags give you an instant barrier around doors, windows, and weak areas of your house if things get dangerous. They slow down incoming fire and give you a fighting position if the neighborhood goes bad. And they are also useful for floods. If a water main breaks or a storm hits, sandbags keep water out of your home. They even help with embers and small debris during a fire. They are cheap, easy to store flat, and you can fill them in minutes.
    Fourth is a good countertop water filter. Not a basic kitchen filter, I mean a real gravity fed system that can take outdoor water, lake water, rainwater, and make it safe to drink. The one I use filters the equivalent of sixty eight thousand plastic water bottles. In a crisis, clean water is everything. If you can filter your own, you have a massive advantage over everyone else standing in line for bottled water.
    For the fifth item, Get a handheld thermal camera or binoculars. This is one of the most underrated tools in prepping. You can detect people or animals in the dark, see heat signatures through smoke, locate intruders hiding behind bushes, and even check your house for heat loss in winter. In a post crisis environment, being able to see what others cannot is a huge edge. Maybe you guys don't agree with me but I think for tactical purposes at night, its so valuable.
    These five items might not be on every prepper checklist, but they give you mobility, protection, water security, and home defense, That is the level you want to be operating at.

  • Bat species make up 21% of all mammals.

    Earth is home to a staggering number of creatures: By one estimate, more than 8.7 million species of plants and animals live on its lands and in its waters. Mammals, however, make up a small fraction of that number — just 6,495 species. If you’re wondering which warm-blooded animals are most numerous, glance to the night sky. That’s where you’ll probably find bats, which account for 21% of all the mammals in the world.

    The bat family boasts amazing diversity. The tiny bumblebee bat (only about an inch big) is the world’s smallest mammal, while the flying fox bat has a 5-foot wingspan. Scientists classify these mostly nocturnal creatures into two categories: microbats and megabats. Microbats are generally smaller, nighttime flyers that rely on echolocation to hunt insects, whereas megabats are often much larger, and some of them hunt in the daytime. Megabats primarily live in the tropics, where they use their larger eyes and better olfactory senses in place of echolocation to locate fruit for their meals.

    Bats have been around for more than 50 million years, which helps explain why they’re such a fine-tuned part of our ecosystem. Nectar-eating bats are master pollinators of more than 500 plant species (including cacao for chocolate and agave for tequila), thanks to their ability to fly and transport pollen further than bees. They’re also nature’s bug zappers, keeping mosquito, moth, and beetle populations in check. The flying insect hunters are so effective — eating half their body weight in bugs each night — that scientists credit them with saving U.S. farmers $1 billion in pesticides and crop damage each year. Bats even help combat deforestation by dropping seeds over barren areas: Bat-dropped seeds can account for up to 95% of regrowth in cleared forests in tropical areas, a huge accomplishment for such small creatures.


    Vampire bats create close friendships.
    Vampire bats are at best feared and at worst maligned as sinister predators, but chiropterologists (scientists who study bats) believe Desmodus rotundus are actually incredibly social animals that survive thanks to their selective, long-term friendships. Vampire bats, which live in Mexico, Central America, and South America, have genetic mutations that separate them from their fruit- and bug-eating brethren, affecting how they taste and digest their food. They only survive on blood (usually from livestock and birds), and consume nearly 1.4 times their body weight per meal to get the nutrients they need. But blood isn’t always readily available, which puts vampire bats at risk of starvation, especially since they must eat every 48 hours or so. Researchers think this could be why these flying mammals have learned to share food with family members, regurgitating the substance in a manner similar to how birds feed their young. But vampire bats will also help roost-mates they have close, nonfamilial relationships with — and those bats remember and return the favor, creating a long-term bond that increases both animals’ odds of survival. Researchers say watching these high-flying friendships develop can help us better understand how other social species (like humans) bond, too.

  • These 2 Pups Keep Airplanes Safe by Doing What They Love: Chasing Birds.
    two canines in West Virginia are actually keeping people safe while performing the same task. Border collies Hercules and Ned serve as team members at the West Virginia International Yeager Airport in Charleston. Their primary objective? To chase away animals that could collide with aircraft.

    Per the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, birds and other wildlife strikes cause over $900 million in damage to civil and military aircraft each year. These collisions can also be fatal: Since 1988, more than 250 people have been killed globally because of them. Together with their handler and the airport’s wildlife specialist, Chris Keyser, Hercules and Ned help reduce the chances of these dangerous instances occurring.

    The duo drives off deer, geese, starlings, killdeer, and other critters during regularly scheduled rounds, or after Keyser receives communication from airport traffic control towers regarding any wildlife near the taxiways.

    “I like making a difference here at the airport, keeping people safe who are flying in and out of here — and especially when somebody’s in a terminal and might be sad — or just putting a smile on everybody’s face, It makes me feel good, and it makes these dogs feel good too, because it makes them feel special.

  • Why you almost never see male calico cats.

    Only about 1 in every 3,000 calico cats is male.
    If you know anything about calico cats, it’s that they’re especially cute. If you know two things about them, the second might be that only about 1 in every 3,000 of them is male. The tricolor kitties — which are most often but not always white, orange, and black — get their distinct coat from their chromosomal makeup. Female cats have two X chromosomes, which carry the coding gene for black and orange coloration, and the only way for calico coloring to occur is for a kitten to get one black-coded X and one orange-coded X. The same is also true of tortoiseshell (tortie) cats, which are predominantly black and orange — and known for their “tortitude.” (The white patches in calicos, meanwhile, happen through a separate genetic process called piebalding, which produces areas of skin and fur without any pigment.)

    Though extremely rare, male calicos and torties do exist. This is usually the result of one of two conditions: chimerism or Klinefelter’s syndrome. The former occurs when two embryos fuse early in pregnancy, resulting in two different sets of DNA, while Klinefelter’s is the result of a male inheriting an extra X chromosome and therefore having XXY chromosomes. Making them even rarer is the fact that male calicos are almost always sterile, meaning it’s all but impossible to breed calicos — every one you see is an anomaly, and all the more special for it.


    Calicos are considered good luck.

    There’s a reason that maneki-neko are so often depicted as calicos: They’re considered good luck. The “beckoning cat” figurines found throughout Japan and at Japanese and Chinese establishments around the world are intended as tokens of good fortune, with one of their paws raised high in a waving motion. This dates back to the tradition of Japanese sailors traveling with calicos to bring about safe passage — the multicolored cats were believed to be able to chase away storms and ancestral ghosts. In the United States and England, meanwhile, male calicos are considered especially lucky because of their rarity.
