Change is happening all around us, whether we notice it or not. Sometimes it’s subtle, like the way a favorite tree in your backyard grows taller each year, and other times it’s as obvious as a skyline that suddenly looks nothing like it did before.
Through photos, we can see these transformations more clearly. So we’ve gathered some of the most fascinating comparison images from around the web to show you just how remarkable they can be. Take a look below—you might find yourself appreciating the world in a whole new way.

Two-Faced Cat
Can't think of a clever name, but this would be Harvey Dent's cat!
I think those are two different cats in one body. No, seriously: I think it's a case of chimerism.
I read that two-faced cats absorbed a sibling in the early stage of pregnancy. Whether that's true or not, I don't know. It doesn't look like the cat's going to tell us, either.
Load More Replies...Contrary to popular belief, a split-faced cat is Not a chimera! It's a tortoiseshell marking, usually. GORGEOUS kitty here!
Change is a natural part of life. Even if we refuse to take part in it, the world keeps turning, the seasons move forward, and time marches on. With everything constantly in motion, it’s easy to miss how things gradually evolve around us, or even within ourselves.
Interestingly, it’s not entirely our fault if we resist change. Humans are actually wired to be cautious about it—a survival instinct developed over many years.

“When we’re born, our brain is completely malleable and experiencing new things all the time,” says Santosh Kesari, MD, PhD, neurologist, neuro-oncologist and neuroscientist. “We’re figuring out positive and negative behaviors, what is good for survival and avoiding consequences that would cause even short-term pain. As we age, our brain learns ways to do things that make us do certain things, and behaving accordingly to each context and each stimulus.”

In other words, our brains figure out what works and what doesn’t early on. This is helpful because it means we don’t have to keep relearning positive behaviors. However, the downside is that our brains get comfortable with certain patterns, making it difficult to adopt new habits or break old ones. That’s why trying to change routines, like incorporating more exercise, can feel counterintuitive for our minds and bodies.

I think this is because if women put things in their pockets it throws off her "natural body shape" and would "ruin all of her sexy curves". I totally think it's a sexist move designed to allow men to keep objectifying women's bodies.

A Polar Bear's Paw Print Compared To A Human Hand
There's a saying in Canada with respect to bears: If it's black, fight back. If it's brown, lie down. If it's white, say goodnight.
Don't lie down if it's an Euroasian brown bear though! Or it might just see you as a snack. Act calm, talk calmly and back away slowly. Not as good mnemonic device but could save your life :)
Load More Replies...Get back into your vehicle or building or polar station, and please get your glove back on! 🥶🥶🥶🥶
The downside is that when a bear kills and eats a human, they like the taste. So they are more likely to do it again. So they put the bear down rather than risk it killing again (even if we were on their turf).
Load More Replies...I'm more concerned with the polar bears running speed compared to mine if I see that
It's faster. Your only hope is to outrun whoever you're with.
Load More Replies...They are big, they are strong, they are fast, and they are known to hunt humans for sport. In Churchill, Manitoba, where there is a large population of polar bears in the area, it's illegal to lock your cars and houses because people may need to jump in to escape a bear. There's a team of rangers who work full-time to shoot them with tranquilizers, airlift or truck them out of town, and leave them in the woods to wake up. Sometimes they leave them in a holding facility called "polar bear jail" for a bit to associate negative experience with town and encourage them to stay away. They rarely have fatal attacks, but they have a really good prevention system based on keeping both bears and humans alive.
Load More Replies...Let's see what's the prevailing wisdom? Run, disrobe, and pray the polar bear stops and sniffs so you have a chance in hail of not being an hors d'oeuvre?
Your only chance is to stand and fight. Go for the nose, the eyes, where it will hurt them. If they're not super hungry, they might decide the pain isn't worth it and leave. But it is far better to just stay TF away from them. Polar bears are, to me, some of the most magnificent animals in the world. Their habitats are shrinking horribly. We need to do what we can to preserve the species.

Wish this picture used a short male officer instead of a female. This is why women were kept out of law enforcement for decades. Departments used a height requirement that excluded many women. One department in California was sued not by women, but by Asian men who were generally below the height requirement. The Asian men won, and the height requirement was abolished.
My Dog Laika Has Two Different Eyes And Two Different Ears
Did anyone else put their hand over one side of the picture, then the other? Really does look like 2 different dogs cobbled together. One 1/2 looks like a terrier cross and the other 1/2 looks like a husky, or aussie, or border collie cross. (Huskies aren't the only breed that can commonly have one or both blue eyes). Gorgeous!
Bad habits, however, are a bit different from regular routines. While they don’t benefit us, they feel good because the brain releases dopamine in response to them. When we try to break these habits, we create dissonance, which the brain resists, according to Dr. Luana Marques, associate professor of psychology at Harvard Medical School. The limbic system in the brain activates the fight-flight-or-freeze response, and our natural reaction is to avoid this “threat” by reverting to old behaviors, even though we know they aren’t good for us.

Evolution Of A Collie Snout

Load More Replies...“From an evolutionary standpoint we develop these neural pathways to adapt to live, so when we encounter change our brain shifts into a protective mode,” says Hafeez. “It has to use energy from reserves and it doesn't know, from that evolutionary standpoint, if the change is good for us or not. It doesn’t know if this change is a one-time deal or whether it needs to re-establish a routine. ‘Will it hurt me?’ A lot of red flags go up.”
“If you’re naturally aggressive and you have to change that angry behavior, that may be a struggle, while someone naturally relaxed who say, has to go through a legal battle may have to shift gears,” she adds. “So much is involved.”

Hair Shrinkage Compared To Hair Straightener
true i suppose but likely at great cost. Many black hairstyles take a lot of work to achieve. My oldest granddaughter used to brush her hair out straight.

These days she has gone to a mostly natural look except a bit of bleaching. Not "afro" but closer to that end of things.

Light from the mirror takes a fraction of a second longer to travel to the camera. Same distance would be same image

Humans are so set in their ways that we’re actually less cognitively flexible than some animals. A 2019 behavioral study from Georgia State University found that monkeys, for example, are much more open to trying new strategies to reach their goals.
In the study, both humans and monkeys were taught a method to achieve simple goals and receive rewards—recognition for the humans and banana pellets for the monkeys. They were then shown a shortcut that would help them reach their rewards faster. The monkeys were quick to adopt the more efficient shortcut, while humans were slower to embrace the new approach. However, once the benefits became clear, people were more likely to get on board.

The Stark Difference Between A Kroger And Farmers' Market Strawberry
Probably different varieties. We grew Corona strawberries (yes, that's the name of the variety) and they were quite white in the middle, even when ripe, and tasted lovely. Other varieties we've had have been deep red like the ones below. Also lovely as long as they are sun-ripened and not bought in supermarket plastic!
This one is completely misleading, because you can get the exact same variants just growing them yourself, or even between strawberries in the store/at the farmer's market. It has nothing to do with where they are sold or even grown in this case. We have strawberries in our garden that look like both. The taste of the berries will differ greatly too. We have some that are more white in the center that are some of the sweetest berries we've ever grown, some that are more red and still taste good but are way less sweet, and everything in between. For those who assume all/most berries sold in most stores are also less sweet, you're both right and wrong. In some cases it's because of the variety (many varieties, especially those resistant to issues are simply less sweet), in some cases they are picked a little too early, but it has absolutely ZERO to do with where they are sold.
I've come to hate strawberries because I get sour, tasteless berries at any time of year at the store, and I truly miss the perfect, sweet ones I remembered having as a child. Where did all the good strawberries go??
They still exist, lol. Even though we grow the majority of our own produce, we still buy a lot of berries (especially if out of season). What you'll get, no matter where you buy them, will be a mixed bag. There are a lot of varieties that just aren't super sweet. Some of them have been grown to be, or naturally are, more resistant to issues, which makes them better for mass production/sale than those that aren't (because you'll lose a lot of that harvest). We just bought a few packs at Walmart a few days ago, and Save a lot last week, all quite sweet, delicious and perfect. We picked some in our own garden this morning, still delicious, but way less sweet (it's the variety, it's just not a super sweet one and should actually be done for the season now anyway, lol)
Load More Replies...Are they the same kind, though? Otherwise the comparison would be rather moot.
They're different varieties. I only know the names in Spanish, but the red ones are, unsurprisingly, way tastier.

The Evolution Of My Final Take On An Origami Portrait Compared To My First Attempt. Practice Makes Perfect, As We Say
I'm sorry, but while I can see that the left one is less so, they both just look, to me, like somebody just screwed up a sheet of paper and flattened it out again. (I'm not good with pictures).
Load More Replies...Before and after should show it in that order. The one on the right should be the better one. Evolution means progress. Before is first, after is second.
Change also becomes more difficult to introduce as we age, but it’s essential for sustaining our cognitive health. “You absolutely can and should teach your brain to change,” says Hafeez. “If you stretch your brain past its comfort zone, you’re opening the door to being receptive to other types of change.”
To achieve this, there are various things we can do. Visual, spatial, and memory exercises are great ways to give your brain a workout, and many of these can be easily found online. At first, doing them regularly might not feel enjoyable.
“You will get frustrated,” notes Hafeez, “but that means it's working—just like how your muscles are sore after taking a break from the gym and then returning. You’ve been out of touch with this for a while, but the more you do it, the more your memory of how to do it comes back.”
A Museum Demonstrating What Happens When You Let Visitors Touch Marble

Load More Replies...Another effective way to make our brains more flexible is by learning new skills or hobbies that aren’t related to our daily routines. For example, learning a new language, or trying knitting if you work in IT. “Learning a new skill like this has been shown to ward off dementia, aging, and cognitive decline because it regenerates cellular activity,” says Hafeez. Even simple changes, like taking a new route home, stopping by a different coffee shop, or walking around your desk in the opposite direction, can help.

Ultimately, regularly challenging ourselves to try new things and make positive changes can open us up to viewing the world differently and help us build confidence.
“Most people won’t try something new because they’re deathly afraid of failing,” says Hafeez. “When you see that something is doable it makes you more receptive and brave. There’s that emotional, therapeutic factor that is separate from the neural pathway factor. Over the years, we learn to succeed by viewing our previous failures and successes in a certain light and as we get older we lose sight of that. When you try a new thing it makes you more confident to try to do more new things.”

The Amount Of Dandelions On My Neighbor's Lawn vs. My Lawn (We Get Equal Sun)
It is not about the amount of sunlight, but about the amount and type of fertilizer / nutrients in the soil. I'm guessing your neighbour is fertilizing his lawn.
I guess neighbour makes an active effort to get rid of them (manual weeding or herbicides). Dandelions THRIVE on over fertilized soil.
Load More Replies...They are just so sunny! They make me happy to see a yardful of yellow. Then, when they change I love seeing that field at night when the seeds glow. I wrote my favorite poem while looking at that field. Plus, you know, bees need food!
Load More Replies...Not just for them. Ever tried dandelion salad? Or wilted dandelions with bacon?
Load More Replies...Similar situation. My neighbor is old school and harbors a personal vendetta against dandelions. The way he speaks about them, you'd think that they were the absolute bane of his existence. He put so much poison down on his lawn to make it look like a golf course, and tries to trap, shoot or poison animals because they might dig up his lawn. I manually weed my property within 10 ft of his just so that it looks better to his eyes but I let my lawn be full dandelion for the bees in the spring. That's what it's all about. Besides, they're a beautiful yellow flower. There's so many benefits to having dandelions and biodiversity and so few benefits to harboring hatred against perceived imperfections
Dandelions have long taproots that bring nutrients from deeper in the soil and distribute them into the topsoil. They can do fine in underfertilized settings. They are one alien species that actually benefit your lawn.
I don't even HAVE a lawn. I have a motley crue of various weeds masquerading as a lawn
Good for you! I'd say neighbor is treating the lawn with selective herbicides for weed suppression. You and the earth and much better off living with a few weeds. Also, plus side of dandelions is their benefit to pollinators.

The Difference In The Fur Of My Almost Identical Cats (Spiky vs. Smooth)
Are they the same age ? Usually, when aging, the fur starts to get less smooth.

Noticed My Pupils Are Two Different Sizes
May be brain-injury or stroke related, may be something to do with the light-reception in the eye with the larger pupil (partially blindness), may be because the eye with the smaller pupil is closer to a source of light than the other, or has been exposed to more light right before the picture was made.
In other words, if this is recent, sudden, go see a doctor right away, especially if there are other (neurological) symptoms like loss of strength control over (parts of) one side of the body, slurred speech, disorientation, sudden debilitating head-ache, memory-lapse, unconsciousness. If it happens within a few hours/days and no other symptoms, go make an appointment with an eye-doctor (or what it's called) soon. If it happens slowly, have it checked by an eye-doctor regularly, to prevent yourself from going blind. By the way, if you suddenly loose (part of your) eye-sight, go to the ER as well.

My Wife’s New Backup Drive vs. The One She Bought In 2010
I remember feeling so excited the first time I got a 1GB hard drive. That was amazing!

I grind or chop about 5 different seeds to include. They are what makes it special. If I want it fluffier I add more yeast. I used to do it in bakers’ tins, but the breadmaker is so superior.

The Elevator For Art vs. A Normal Elevator
This was actually taken in the police station - there is a lift for the 6 foot 9 policeman and one for the 5 foot 1 policewoman.
Even being a normal elevator has its ups and downs.

Difference In Leg Size After Two Weeks Post-Surgery
A lot of people don't realize how quickly you lose muscle tone and tissue when you stop using them.
I was bedridden for about a week last year due to an acute illness, and I can attest to that! I lost so much muscle in my thighs I could barely walk up my own porch steps. Took me a couple of months to gain that muscle back!
Load More Replies...I broke my leg when I was 22 and was in a cast for 8 weeks. When the cast came off and I saw how pathetically skinny my leg was I was afraid to stand on it.
My coleague has her left leg much thinner than right. She developed it after spinal injury. She can walk and uses both of her legs, but muscles in her left leg never returned to previous size.
Same thing happened to me. Eventually the other leg has started to thin, but they're used exactly the same.
Load More Replies...I'm 80 and tore my Achilles earlier in the year. 14 weeks in a moon boot, 8 weeks out of it. I have exercises to do but I still struggle to walk for 10 minutes without a rest. I'm learning first hand that it takes so much longer to regain muscle when you're old.
I can do that too...post hip surgery.. my left thigh was double my right for 2 weeks. Freaked me out
Anyone who has ever had to wear a cast on their leg is familiar with this.
It's been a year since my foot and leg surgery and I am still trying to build my calf muscle back
I so feel this one! My calf muscles are a lot smaller than they used to be because of my disability and muscle atrophy while in hospital. My thigh muscles have regained more mass, strength again since leaving the physiotherapy hospital but I still kinda look as though my legs are two toothpicks stuck into an apple!!! 😄
Difference Between Store-Bought, Home-Grown And Wild Strawberries

IV Fluid Pump From 1990 vs. 2020
It would be nice if they included a feature to heat the IV to body temp. Normal IVs are so cold.

Load More Replies...I work in medical, but have only seen the big one, even in the newer urgent care clinics.
Didn’t have either of those when I first worked as an RN. Had to count drops of fluid in a minute. Thank goodness for progress
It's not just the IV's that have gotten smaller. I spent a night in the hospital last year, and the device monitoring my oxygen level, blood pressure, etc fit in a pocket in the hospital gown instead of hanging on that stand.
There's an even older IV pump called an IVAC. I don't remember the manufacturer. They won't let you heat plastic IV bags- at least the clinics I've worked in.
I don't think I ever saw one of the newer ones when I was in hospital. Definitely saw and had one of the older ones. It was during the Pandemic though... But hey? If it works? It works.

Old vs. New Chocolate Chips
The white dust looking coating that you see on chocolate, is actually the "milk fat" slowly separating from the chocolate. It's perfectly safe to eat
This is called "blooming" in chocolate. It occurs due to age and environmental factors. Ambient temperature causes bloomed chocolate to look white; ambient moisture levels cause bloomed chocolate to appear grainy. However, once chocolate is tempered, it can be remelted and retempered over and over again, and it will go back to looking perfect. Blooming doesn't affect the flavor, but does affect the mouthfeel. Btw, my husband is a professional chocolatier.

I Bought Some Goat Butter And It’s Completely White. Normal Dairy Butter For Reference
That's Irish butter, it has a higher fat content. The goats milk, I would assume, doesn't have as much fat as a cows
Because goats metabolise beta-carotene quickly, it is white rather than the yellower colour you get from cow's butter.
Can confirm. Goats cream is also not cream in colour, it’s white compared to cream from cows. Is also how I had a doh! moment, when I realised that cream is actually cream coloured….
Most butter in the US has beta carotene added to make butter yellow. That's because cows on large-scale farms don't have the same carotene rich diet as cows raised in pastures. The fresh grass and wildflowers are what give butter a natural yellow tone. The other reason butter is tinted is to make it uniformly the same color so people don't get upset if one cube happens to be a little lighter in color than another.
Cows butter also varied in colour depending on their diet.

Whichever way you look at it, they are both tasteless, vile and bland and have no right to call themselves cheese ; cheese substitute is sort of ok but I think by European standards you could still be sued under most trades descriptions laws. I once challenged an American guy I met on holiday in France to try some proper cheese (before you start, he was OK and didn't automatically hunt out the closest McDonalds, but was a bit unadventurous regarding food), so as you do, we went to a decent restaurant that had an 'advanced' menu and I explained to the owner that we'd like to sample new flavours - to him and me. Cut a long story short, we both hated the Andouillette Saucisse ( very much an acquired taste)and Snails (not because of the flavour, but the texture), however, after much other stuff, which mostly went down well, I introduced him to Reblochon and Epoisse Cheese along with a couple of others , served with warm baguette and lashings of butter.

A 2012 Toyota Hilux vs. A 1988 Toyota Hilux
A lot of people would still like those small trucks, but in the US federal law said they had to start meeting car pollution standards instead of truck standards. Auto makers said they couldn't do that so they just quit making them.
You are aware Toyota is a Japanese company, and US laws have no effect on what vehicles the company produces and sells outside of the US. This pic was, in fact, taken in Japan (which is why both trucks are right-side drive). Furthermore, the Hiluxe was discontinued in the U.S. in 1995, while it continues to be sold in Asia to this day (the current model is a midsize truck, instead of compact truck, but that change had nothing to do with the US. Furthermoe (again) , several car companies still make compact pickup trucks, including Ford.

All The Vinegar Have Different Amount Of Fluids In Them. Not Opened, Any Signs Of Leaking
Plastic bottles are never 100% watertight. Fluid (mostly the water part of it) diffuses through the plastic itself and, due to changes in temperature and pressure in the bottle, the caps can come loose a wee tiny bit.
That can even happen with aluminum cans. I had some soda cans in my shop fridge that I kind of forgot about for several years. All the cans still sealed, but several of them were only about 1/2 full. And no visible signs of leakage because I think it was just the water molecules that were slowly escaping, not the sugar and caramel dyes.
Load More Replies...They were probably not shipped "This Side Up" as the box says. Those seals are not actually water-tight, so even if they were tipped on their sides, there could have been leakage, and vinegar evaporates pretty quickly, so there might not have been any evidence of leakage by the time it was unpacked. Whoever stocked those shelves, however, should have noticed the different liquid levels and pulled the underfilled bottles. I'd never let my stockers get away with this.
