    When you have a Hyrax as pet and you get visitors over:
    Friend: Haha yeah sure, sound great.
    You: Nice, I'll go to the kitchen.
    Friend: Uuuhhhh, what… is that thing taped to your wall so weirdly?
    You: Huh? {You see your Hyrax} oh no worries, that's Penelope, the house potato. It's a Hyrax.
    Friend: Ohh, never heard of it.
    Hyrax: WAWAWAAWAAWAWA
    Friend: WHAT IS THAT NOISE?
    Hyrax: WAWAWAWAAWAWAWAWAWA
    You: Like some coffee? I think it just wants some attention no worries, we can pet Penelope soon.
    Friend: Uuuuuuuhh yeah.. sure, coffee sounds fine.

    4:03 wow female scientists and explorers were badass back in the day, walking through the rainforest in a long dress like its nothing.. meanwhile Ill walk across the street in the summer to go to an air conditioned store wearing shorts and a tank top and when I get home i have a nild sunburn, heat rash and i have to change because im soaked in sweat.

    also dont hyenas have a similar social structure but matriarchal then patriarchal

    Not again, Japan! Like otters, owls and sugar gliders, hyrax are NOT good pets! Japan's insane exotic animal craze is just as bad as China's pseudoscientific use of critically endangered animal parts
