Animals

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

Raccoon goes on drunken rampage in Virginia liquor store and passes out on bathroom floor
An employee at a Ashland-area liquor store found the trash panda passed out on the bathroom floor at the end of his drunken escapade.

... The Hanover County Animal Protection and Shelter commended Martin for handling the break-in, and confirmed the raccoon had sobered up.

“After a few hours of sleep and zero signs of injury (other than maybe a hangover and poor life choices), he was safely released back to the wild, hopefully having learned that breaking and entering is not the answer,” the agency said.

It's a trend:
Drunk monkey breaks into liquor store and passes out on boxes of booze
A monkey was filmed passed out on a box of booze after breaking into a liquor store and getting drunk in the Indian town of Ormanjhi

... The bizarre incident took place in the Indian town of Ormanjhi earlier this month. Store employees initially attempted to shoo the animal away and tempted him with cookies, but the primate had far stronger cravings — draining an entire liquor bottle.

... A rescue team was dispatched to the location to assist the intoxicated primate, which eventually came to and stumbled away nursing what must have been the mother of all hangovers.

... Another person jokingly asked, "How did you get this footage of me?!."

"Perhaps it's been drinking Monkey Shoulder," one commenter suggested, referencing the popular whiskey brand.

Some users rallied to the monkey's defense, suggesting it had probably endured a tough day and "just wanted a break. Leave him be bro."
:D
This isn't the first time a primate has been caught on a bender.

In 2023, a notoriously aggressive drunk monkey in Nepal attacked 4,000 people over three months after drinking with locals.

The aggressive primate reportedly had a habit of wandering into local stores and drinking alcohol alongside residents, but would turn violent and attack children after consuming too much....
:wtf: In Montana or WNC that monkey would have been shot after the 4th victim, especially kids. Looks like Brasil, too:
