Let me spin you a yarn about a peculiar treasure found aboard the vessels that brave the briny deep \u2013 the wondrous world of sailor’s pet pics!<\/p>\n<p>Picture this: you’re on a ship, surrounded by nothing but the endless expanse of the ocean. It’s just you, your shipmates, and a bunch of sediment ready to be analyzed. But wait! What’s that on the wall? It’s not a map of buried treasure or a portrait of a fearsome pirate. No, it’s something far more precious \u2013 it’s a photograph of a sailor’s furry first mate!<\/p>\n<p>You see, sailors and scientists alike have a soft spot for their four-legged friends back on land. And what better way to keep their spirits high during long voyages than by surrounding themselves with reminders of home? So, they plaster their cabins with pictures of their pets \u2013 from loyal Labradors to frisky felines\u2013 each one a precious piece of their heart left behind on shore. Instead of keeping these treasures locked up in individual rooms, we decided to dedicate a public wall for all to enjoy the uplifting benefits of \u201cCritter Comfort Care\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>But these pet pics aren’t just for show \u2013 oh no! They’re an essential part of life at sea. Need a morale boost after a rough day battling the waves? Just take a gander at some cat’s cheeky grin, or the head tilt of a dog and all your troubles will melt away faster than ice cream on a hot deck.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps the best part of all is the camaraderie that pet pics inspire among sailors. Swap stories about your furry friends, share tips on pet training (hint: treats or belly rubs are always the answer), and bond over the universal truth that pets are the best thing since sliced bread \u2013 or, in the case of sailors, since rum.\u00a0 We\u2019ve already shared many laughs over our wild pet stories!<\/p>\n<p>In addition to wild pet stories, Tessa went around to some of the scientists and asked them what science they their pet would be interested in. Here is what she learned.<\/p>\n<p>Dakota (The Queen) would follow a path in toxicology because she is mischievous and pays attention to the little things. Toxicology is the science that aims to understand the effects, and interactions harmful substances can have on the environment and living things.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_40794\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-40794\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-40794\" src=\"https:\/\/joidesresolution.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/8e6dced2-d5df-4079-bafb-7d7f26315ddf-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/joidesresolution.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/8e6dced2-d5df-4079-bafb-7d7f26315ddf-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/joidesresolution.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/8e6dced2-d5df-4079-bafb-7d7f26315ddf-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/joidesresolution.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/8e6dced2-d5df-4079-bafb-7d7f26315ddf-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/joidesresolution.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/8e6dced2-d5df-4079-bafb-7d7f26315ddf.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-40794\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dakota, the rabbit, out for a walk.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p> <\/p>\n<p>Bruno: After getting tired of his kibble, he has gotten a taste for pairing foods with each other.Thus Bruno would go into the food sciences to determine the best food combinations for his newly refined palate.
