@futurebird no, but the other animals are underhyped.

@futurebird You can't do down a creature that can give you chlamydia and contaminates crime scenes with its human-like fingerprints.

@futurebird I understand where you're coming from but we don't have youtube videos like "ant gets kicked out of ant-hill and cries"I mean koalas are not my top vertebrate by a mile but that video is so amusing because I can be like "oh koalas are such drama queens"

@futurebird The P-22/koala incident was probably the only time koalas received a justified amount of hype. Otherwise I'm with "yes".https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/03/11/470099818/las-famous-mountain-lion-suspected-in-koala-killing

@futurebird I don’t think it’s possible to overhype the wonders of the natural world.

@futurebird Birds are vertebrates. Therefore B is not an option.

@futurebird Have you ever heard the song "One species are we?" by the Vox Hunters?It works from domains of life down through kingdom, phylum, etc. to genus, but at the phylum level the lyrics go,"Our backbone gives us structureOur backbone gives us strengthSo with the other chordatesWe find our phylum rankBut let our boney ego Never be unfurledFor the spineless worms and insectsThey truly rule the world"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xVG5ZFMUTxQ

@futurebird multiple Australians have assured me the cute hype is an elaborate cover-up for their true ecological role, dropping out of trees in the dead of night to land on the heads of tourists and eat them whole.

@futurebird @hex Don’t they have chlamydia? They’re the Timothée Chalamet of marsupials.

@futurebird not hyped enough to stop Australians doing what we do best – destroying their habitat like there is no tomorrow.
