"Fish" What kind of fish? because there's thousands of species and Sharks are included in that

u/MrBlueCharon 1d ago
The specific animal of fish. But tiger, lion and cat are seperate, they aren't as closely related as fish and its peers, it's basically Alabama down under the water.

u/Maultaschtyrann 1d ago
It's WAY more than thousands. Considering they are BY FAR the oldest type of animal, they evolved in different directions for billions of years

u/Educational-Data1270 1d ago
Oldest vertebrate*. And they’ve been evolving since the Cambrian period, so earliest they appeared would be 540 mya

There are fish that are closer related to mammals that live on land then some other fish in the ocean. It may as well have said "animal"

These findings reinforce the parental exploitation hypothesis—sterile workers are a caste of disposable, short-lived helpers whose vigilance and hyperactivty increases the queen’s fitness by buffering her and her fertile offspring from environmental stresses

The “8 hours a night” sleep study was conducted on MEN. Women need 10 hours on average because we replenish hormones in our sleep (whereas men don’t need it as much because they get some from their balls during the day).

u/Extreme_Design6936 1d ago
Sharks gotta keep moving to 'breathe' so they can't really sleep very long. Supposedly not more than 10min at a time.
I'd hate to be a shark. Imagine you oversleep and you die.

Yeah, its all anecdotal, but I have had three dogs, all active pets I took for long walks everyday and all were outside often, and I don't think any of them were awake for 11 hours a day.

u/Sea_Use2428 1d ago
Yeah, that's what I thought too when thinking of our little family terrier. Granted, he is eleven years old now and sleeps even more than he used to, but I feel like 13 hours has always rather been the minimum for him.

Why do large herbivores sleep so little?
Sleep also doesn’t seem to be correlated with intelligence as Elephants are very intelligent creatures but has very different need for sleep with other intelligent creatures on the list.
→ More replies (2)28
u/Myrsky4 1d ago
I am no expert but have several ideas - carnivores have an easier time resting as they can gorge and then go into little food comas while digesting and not starve. If your main source of calories is plants you have a lot more eating you need to do, it's also for those same reasons that it's basically impossible to gorge in the wild for an herbivore.
In addition some animals make it so they rest parts of their brain at a time(famously sharks and marine mammals do this) - elephants may have similar mechanisms so they can be alert more
Those are my thoughts but again, not an expert
12
u/Maultaschtyrann 1d ago
Good explanation! Big herbivores need to be feeding constantly. The carnivores actually are the other way around. They need to sleep through as much of the suboptimal times to hunt to conserve energy for when they hunt.

Tardigrade, very smol (microscopic) tough little guys with six legs (3 pairs) that can be found in moss. Famous for being able to survive short periods of exposure to outer space.

u/Tabosby 1d ago
Im pretty sure its because they need to conserve all of their energy to hunt, or maybe thats just lions. But lions for sure cant afford to waste any extra energy otherwise theyll die. Its like the opposite of peak evolution imo lmao dude cant go 6 hours awake without losing too much energy to hunt again

u/pickle_lukas 1d ago
Carnivores in general chose a pretty risky evolution path as full time assassins that can only eat their target. Omnivores is the way, just eat anything with any caloric value

It isn't, most of this is a load of shit. How much they sleep varies wildly depending on the time of year, and the circumstance of the cat.

u/Rubyhamster 1d ago
Yeah, but large cats do have an incredibly high percentage of average sleep during the days they digest food. When patrolling, I'm guessing they sleep about 10 hours or something

But this makes no sense. It seems like all the other animals are measured in the amount of sleep per 24 hours, then you get the last one that is measured on a different time scale.
