i'm so unspeakably angry. everybody should watch Planet Earth: the future on arts central wednesdays at 10. and see how everything is falling apart. i read, on national geographic, that a certain species of leopard is so endangered there are barely 12 of them left in the wild, with only 5 females amongst them, one of which had just been shot by a hunter - with a photo of the carcass to boot. and there is a certain species of wild horse with numbers under 30 and all of those are in captivity, for preservation purposes, of course. and thats barely the tip of the iceberg. its so heartbreaking. i feel so impossibly sad everytime i read something like this.
people scoff when i tell them i sign up for national geographic's newsletters and emails, but i feel that if you've the time and have the ability to click a mouse, then you should sign up and see for yourselves. before we entirely kill off and ruin these animals and cant see any of them again. its free by the way. we should try to create some awareness, and Planet Earth: the future really hits home. i cant believe the curelty some people are capable of. utterly despicable.
and think about roadkill and all that. and why crocodiles are more often than not being found in swimming pools. its because we're invading their space! their territories! they've nowhere else to go! its our fault, its totally our fault. the dolphin killings, and the whale beachings, and everything else! im really so unspeakably angry and everyone can laugh at me for all i care but i am totally going to be the crocodile huntress someday, and maybe i can do something then.
