To celebrate Father's Day, I put together a collection of comics about the diverse roles that fathers take in the animal kingdom.

Nature is awesome, some ants species produce antibiotics too, that are currently tested to make new medications based on it. Half of the pharmaceuticals we have were derived from natural sources. Some essential oils carry strong drugs too. I have ehlers danlos syndrom and i use 2 of them almost daily instead of bad drugs (tramadol and nefopam) and i'm thankful to mother nature for it. Gautheria procumbens(wintergreen) oil is 99% methyl salicylate(aspirin is acetylsalicylic acid), which is an analgesic and an anti inflammatory(a very toxic one, a teaspoon could kill a kid, use it carefully). The plant use it to attract insectivores and many species of birds and mammals eat it, in little amounts (2/10%of their diet) so they probably are aware that it helps them but they use it carefuly unless some dumb humans who think "it's natural so it's harmless". Nature is wonderful and deadly!
