Tragelaphus Eurycerus Puns

Erstmals seit ein paar Jahren haben kenianische Behörden wieder eine Zählung verschiedener Säugetier- und Vogelarten durchgeführt und dabei eine erfreuliche Zunahme einiger Vertreter der wichtigen und typischen Savannenfauna festgestellt. Die Ergebnisse hat der Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) auf seiner Homepage veröffentlicht. Trotz Coronakrise und fehlender Einnahmen durch den Naturtourismus konnte der ostafrikanische Staat damit seine wichtige Rolle für den Erhalt der so genannten Megafauna behaupten.

Entgegen dem Trend in vielen anderen Staaten des Kontinents nahm beispielsweise die Zahl der Elefanten seit 2014 wieder um zwölf Prozent zu, nachdem sie zuvor lange durch Wilderei dezimiert wurde. Insgesamt ziehen mittlerweile wieder mehr als 36 000 Elefanten durch die Savannen. Auch der Bestand an Nashörnern wuchs um elf Prozent und damit gegen den kontinentalen Trend: Insgesamt gibt es gegenwärtig mehr als 1700 Breit- und Spitzmaulnashörner. Allerdings existieren nur noch zwei Exemplare des Nördlichen Spitzmaulnashorns, die streng bewacht werden. In vielen anderen afrikanischen Staaten stehen diese Dickhäuter wegen der illegalen Jagd nach ihrem Horn unter Druck. Trotz der Coronakrise habe man hier die Schutzanstrengungen intensiviert, so der KWS.

Besonders deutlich vermehrten sich die drei Giraffenarten Kenias: von rund 23 000 auf mehr als 34 000 Tiere. Die Behörden schränken jedoch ein, dass dies teilweise auf veränderte Zählmethoden zurückzuführen sei. Ebenfalls nach oben ging es für Löwen und Zebras.

Der Report nennt allerdings auch die Sorgenkinder. Darunter fallen vor allem verschiedene Antilopenarten und -unterarten, die zum Teil nur in Kenia vorkommen. Der Östliche Bongo (Tragelaphus eurycerus isaaci) etwa gilt mit nur 150 Tieren als vom Aussterben bedroht. Ähnliche wenige Exemplare haben von der Östlichen Rappenantilope überlebt (Hippotragus niger roosevelti). Aufwärts geht es hingegen für die Hirolas (Beatragus hunteri), die ebenfalls dank intensiver Bemühungen wieder auf rund 500 Tiere zugenommen haben.

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

The doctor says it terminal.

Alot of great jokes get posted here! However just because you have a joke, doesn't mean it's a dad joke.

THIS IS NOT ABOUT NSFW, THIS IS ABOUT LONG JOKES, BLONDE JOKES, SEXUAL JOKES, KNOCK KNOCK JOKES, POLITICAL JOKES, ETC BEING POSTED IN A DAD JOKE SUB

Try telling these sexual jokes that get posted here, to your kid and see how your spouse likes it.. if that goes well, Try telling one of your friends kid about your sex life being like Coca cola, first it was normal, than light and now zero , and see if the parents are OK with you telling their kid the "dad joke"

I'm not even referencing the NSFW, I'm saying Dad jokes are corny, and sometimes painful, not sexual

So check out r/jokes for all types of jokes

r/unclejokes for dirty jokes

r/3amjokes for real weird and alot of OC

r/cleandadjokes If your really sick of seeing not dad jokes in r/dadjokes

Punchline !

Edit: this is not a post about NSFW , This is about jokes, knock knock jokes, blonde jokes, political jokes etc being posted in a dad joke sub

Edit 2: don't touch the thermostat

Do your worst!

How the hell am I suppose to know when it’s raining in Sweden?

Mathematical puns makes me number

We told her she can lean on us for support. Although, we are going to have to change her driver's license, her height is going down by a foot. I don't want to go too far out on a limb here but it better not be a hack job.

Ants don’t even have the concept fathers, let alone a good dad joke. Keep r/ants out of my r/dadjokes.

But no, seriously. I understand rule 7 is great to have intelligent discussion, but sometimes it feels like 1 in 10 posts here is someone getting upset about the jokes on this sub. Let the mods deal with it, they regulate the sub.

They were cooked in Greece.

I'm surprised it hasn't decade.

He lost May

Now that I listen to albums, I hardly ever leave the house.

Two muffins are in an oven, one muffin looks at the other and says "is it just me, or is it hot in here?"

Then the other muffin says "AHH, TALKING MUFFIN!!!"

Don't you know a good pun is its own reword?

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.

I said "hey look, an escaPEA"

No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂

It really does, I swear!

And now I’m cannelloni

A play on words.

My daughter, Chewbecca, not so much.

The nurse asked the rabbit, “what is your blood type?”

“I am probably a type O” said the rabbit.
