Nature would balance the books. Animals are more resilient than we like to give them credit for.

I saw one episode of that show, and it said most domesticated animals would wither starve or turn feral. Resilience doesn't mean much if you're locked in a house and can't get out.

Animals die all the time in nature, every day, everywhere. The great majority aren't weeping about that.

well the last anon said animal resilience was underestimated in humans, and if they meant "starving to death" then I guess they were right.

Undoubtedly, but is your version of happily ever after really your neighbors pets eating yours, etc? It would take untold generations for things to reach a new world balance eventually, but it's rather inane IMO to think that a whole city's worth of cats and dogs alone who are forced to suddenly hunt wildlife around them due to lack of human provided food wouldn't ravage the eviroment of other animal life (potentially doing irreparable damage to other local species) wherever they are.

Also "love" how we've completely marginalized the huge amounts of research/training/work it takes to reintroduce animals back into their native environments currently after the animals have either been injured or raised in captivity by scientists/etc.

Yes, there would be consequences, and some of them wouldn't be nice. Guess what, nature isn't nice, it isn't pretty, and it doesn't discriminate. However long it took, it would balance out.

Also "love" how we've completely marginalized the huge amounts of research/training/work it takes to reintroduce animals back into their native environments currently after the animals have either been injured or raised in captivity by scientists/etc.

Which wouldn't need to be done if humans didn't ruin their environments and stick them in cages in the first place.

Which wouldn't need to be done if humans didn't ruin their environments and stick them in cages in the first place.

So by that logic we should only currently be helping animals affected directly by humans? Any animal injured or orphaned by either disease or, gee, another animal we should just leave to die? I'm sorry, but that's awful. Different species of animals have been known to take care of each other's young better than that.

Additionally the entire point of rehabilitating a sick/injured/orphaned animals to live on their own in nature without dependence on humans is being totally misunderstood here.

I love how you can talk about how nature isn't nice, isn't pretty and doesn't discriminate, but still have a problem with people being not nice, not pretty and not discriminating.

Nature isn't inherently superior.

(Anonymous) 2012-03-16 01:33 am (UTC)(link)
Ha! I came here to say exactly this. :D

Thank you anon

[identity profile] fadeinthewash.livejournal.com 2012-03-16 04:40 am (UTC)(link)
+1 to you anon

I'd like to add that not only is nature not inherently superior, humans aren't wholly removed from "nature" either. When people talk as if we were, I feel like it's the whole "noble savage" trope updated for a modern society.
