That’s pretty terrifying. You can see the somewhat muted apprehension on his face mixed with a hope that he will be out of it soon.
Of course, I’m putting human emotions onto an animal, but that’s just because I can easily see myself in such a situation where I’m politely asked to step into a room and face a wall for a brief moment…
Yea my brain definitely forgot what anesthetize meant for like 3-4 seconds when I first opened the picture and it made me sad… Then I was like wait no that’s different. Then I was like but yea you could probably use this for the other thing too. Then I remembered the video youtube recommended to me about some guy that built his own gas chamber for cats out of a cooler and got sad again.

They do this for a lot of small animals. My vet has a little cage with an adjustable top you can push down to reduce the volume, that they use for small animals

As someone who doesn’t live in a desert. How do you process these, without having to deal with needles in your hands for the next few days?

Pair of leather gloves and some time, there aren’t too many needles on the fruits themselves so you can just kinda pull them out, alternatively you use a knives.

Vet med is like this because they don’t really make specialized equipment for every animal. Was on a tour behind the scenes at a zoo and they used a traffic cone to administer anesthesia to a seal.
They don’t make masks for anything besides dogs and cats and making tiny masks and putting them on small animals would be incredibly difficult.

… So, if this thing isn’t a dedicated small animal anesthetiser, what am I looking at?
They are vet masks. They are generic and come on different sizes. The largest one can fit several small animals. The smallest ones are for cats and tiny dogs. I think the largest one they make are for horses and cattle. But they have special fittings for straps. This ones are rubber ring ended so they are easier to use to makeshift a tiny gas chamber.

It seems like something that could be improved by 3d printing.
I’m guessing that if a vet has to assist several animals of the same species maybe it could be possible to get some kind of mask that could fit most of them.
Although I’m not sure if that’s something that would help or maybe it will just be more cumbersome.

As best as I can tell, and it’s a bit of a stretch, the implication may be at “my mans” stems from AVE, and therefore asking if people talk like that translates to being racist.
I don’t agree with the thought process or conclusion, but that’s the best I got
What the other guy said. This is definitely a common phrase with AAVE, thus, asking the question, “do people really talk like this”, would imply that the asker is considering the poster to be inferior in some way. The racist piece being that it’s pinpointing a dialect spoken, typically, by a specific race and calling it dumb.
I was sort of being sarcastic but lemmy users are a special sort and definitely can’t read that.
I read it more as ignorant and rude than racist. Like, if I said “all y’all ought to do blah” and was questioned on it, I’d assume the questioner just hadn’t been exposed to folks with that dialect.
Or like how my brother would make fun of people with a Boston accent while he was a tourist in Boston, getting directions from someone with a Boston accent. Ignorant and rude.
Of course, I’m white AF and my primary exposure to AAVE is online, so I might be totally missing subtext/context/supertext. Also my brother is an asshole.

Animals experience the same emotions as we do.
It’s just their understanding of the situation that might be lacking.
My second paragraph was mostly just to excuse myself from mapping human emotions onto animal facial expressions.
He genuinely might be having the time of his life but we can’t read him properly.
Just in case, anesthesia != euthanasia
Oh god! I genuinely did make that mistake. I was wondering why this morbid piece was being treated so lightly haha

A small animal anethetiser which can fit a variety of small animals, not just one :)
