Symbiotic Relationships in Ecology: mutualism, parasitism, and commensalism via Wild Earth Lab

Symbiotic Relationships in Ecology: mutualism, parasitism, and commensalism via Wild Earth Lab

What is a symbiotic relationship?A symbiotic relationship is a long-term interaction between two species. Did you know lichens are two species in a symbiotic relationship? A lichen is a fungi and an algae or bacteria living together. This is just one of many examples of a symbiotic relationship! Symbiotic relationships typically benefit at least one of the two species involved. Symbiosis is a…

Time for a random hill I am willing to die on, so what in the Titans name is Hooty

beginning with few things we know:

He is a bug type demon and demons are born from a titans body & magic

House demons are not common but also not extremely rare (coven heads are confused in Hollow Mind but Amity is like, yea, house demons do be like that)

Hooty is not dependent on the place he lives in - can freely detach himself from the house and just go somewhere what does not affect neither him nor the house

Hooty is terrotorial and protects the place he lives in

There are organs with own pulse inside the walls of the Owl House

All of this being said, I believe demons later called "house" demons were born from wounds on titans body. After titan got hurt, lost an eye in some manner, a bug type demon formed or moved into the wound establishing in there sort of symbiotic relationship. Maybe protecting the space from other creatures that did try to feed on the wound. Long after titans were gone they just continued to live in crevices and protect spaces around them what was later was used by witches to guard their homes earning them the name "house" demon.

Role of house demons on titans might be similar to the one of Oxpeckers on big animals that are unable to get rid of small parasites. Titans are huge and seeing how some characters were literally walking through their empty veins it would be extremely difficult for them to get rid of pests themselves.

On how is he attached to the space around him, I think he might have some kind of specialised organ letting him attach and form new connections to the space around him.

With time the connections gaining mass and requiring better energy flow they start form organs around the space and a circulation system (that's why there is a pulse even after Hooty is not longer in the door). And that's also why King, Lilith and Luz might have had such disgusted reactions to seeing him leave his place. But whatever he uses to attach to the house it might be pretty vulnerable, so he acts like a hermit crab getting from one shell to another and thats how we get porta Hooty.

But HEY if he has organs that connect him to the house why can he just take of his skin like a sock. My brother in Titan. Skin is a organ too and we literally saw him leave some spare ones in the door. There is literally nothing that says he even requires it and cant be just a skeleton horror with only the essentials near base of his body.

On why I dont think he is a parasite like Cymothoa exigua (tongue eating louse) is because I'm pretty sure Titan would be able to get rid of them himself (and it would mean Hooty ate his way into the titan witch I refuse to consider). It can't be comfortable to have a weird bug in your eye socket just singing to themself all day, so they had to have benefited from it somehow, or at least didnt mind, as Hooty is protective of his space that wouldnt be a strech. Also if they were parasites it would just add insult to injury if they hanged around even after death xD

Im sure Im not the first one to have this thought but I literally searched for theories on him and only found the parasite interpretation witch I don't vibe that much with

and while we are at the topic of Hooty I highly encourage to listen to unhinged Dutch Hooty, I was in tears the first time I heard him. Apologies for video quality tho, it refused work any other way

#and a side note #parasitism is just one type of a symbiotic relationship #and the relationship entirely revolves on that do both parties get from it #other types include mutualism commensalism and competition #so even if we conclude hooty is a parasite its still a demon that establishes a sort of symbiotic relationship with titans #I had 4h physics class but my brain had other plans #condutors were not part of it #toh #the owl house #hooty #hooty toh #toh analysis #titans toh #tw parasite #tw body horror #again

man, i just think it's so cool how i always felt compelled to stay on this shithole website writing my lil fics, never really expecting much from it. just another platform for people to read from tbh...........and i fr just met ppl who i talked to everyday before shit fell off. i got toxic, i got awful, i became a person i didn't wanna be, then was able to pull myself out of that hole and come out even better.

i may keep my circle smaller than ever now but being on this website has never been more fun than it it is now and i partially have @drunkhazed to thank for that. fr she helped me open this blog and encouraged me to do it and i just ;-; im so thankful to have met her, regardless of the circumstances that surrounded it. i genuinely have so much fun over here now, and it's so much easier to not give a fuck these days.

#SAPPY POSTS COMMENSE #simptxt #everyone say thank you to drunkhazed for my fics #frenzy never would have been finished without her lmfao

Macaques have established themselves so successfully in urban areas that ecologists refer to them as “commensal” primates, meaning they gain nutritional benefits from living close to humans. These interactions cause conflict in big cities, and Wildlife SOS rescues many from electrocution, traffic accidents, and other threats.

the scene where the cooks of erebus and terror argue about whether to add more salt to the [rotting, lead-poisoned] tins is genuinely one of my favourites in the whole show btw

#bcs it’s RIGHT before the epic franklin-crozier argument. #you can do soooooo much w the almost perfectly parallel hierarchies of the ships’ crews #(almost because There’s A Spare Captain On Erebus!) #also a cook is kind of like a captain. to me. or sacred king adjacent at least #i have watched Most of black sails. commensality would be a beautiful name for ship sent to discover the north west passage #mr diggle you will always be famous to ME! #terrorposting #beeps
