    Bears must know how cute they are.

    Why is everything that’s hug shaped, also deadly? Bears have no right to be as cute as they are. Those little ears are cuteness weapons of mass destruction!

        If not for hugs, why hug shaped and made of fuzzy?

        Yep. Incredibly cute. Literal bear hugs, so adorable. Makes me want to cuddle a bear cub even more than I already do.

    Dandelions are also edible for humans! The leaves of a young plant are very tasty, tender and a little bitter. Best cooked, but you could totally try mixing in a salad. The flowers can be made into wine (which i’ve never had… but i’m sure it’s awful) and the roots can apparently be roasted and made into a kind of coffee, which I’ve always wanted to try because I imagine it’s a bit like chicory.

    If you want to try any of it, make sure you know where it came from! People spray it with weed killer, even in empty lots and whatnot.

    I wonder if they like them for the taste, or if they evolved to eat them for all the iron.
