انا لم أطلب هذا التاج قط الذهب بارد وثقيل على الرأس ولكن ما دمت الملك فعلى عاتقي واجب إذا كان واجبي أن أضحي بصبي واحد للهب لأنقذ مليونا من الظلام ، سأفعل التضحية ... التضحية ليست سهلة أبدا يا ( دافوس ) ، وإلا فهي ليست تضحية حقيقية https://www.instagram.com/p/BqSD6rDHAPKefFdD_zmozww44EH4vYJGe_zh380/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=wyko1nuk3qag
i think one thing that complicates ppls willingness to understand wild animal safety is that people often take the statement ‘this animal will kill you with no remorse’ as a morally-charged statement about that animal and will get defensive on that animals behalf, because they themselves are equating predatory behavior with ‘meanness’ and can’t imagine a situation in which an animal such as a bear or big cat could both be a delightful, fascinating animal with capacity for complex interactions with humans and also an animal who simply does not have the same social contracts or see any problem with killing an eating any other animal if it feels safe doing so to. i’ve said similar before on a broader post abt animal intelligence but like, if your appreciation for animals like bears and tigers is ruined by the idea that there’s nothing you can do to prevent a bear or tiger from seeing you as potential food (short of raising it in a way that would be extremely mentally damaging for the animal, lmao), then that’s problem with your own limits to compassion for animals lmao.
it’s wrong to equate an animals carnivory to it being ‘bad’ and its fair to point out how that’s been historically used to demonize animals like wolves but it’s no better to pretend an animal isn’t what it is for your own comfort.
