Bambi Syndrome

For those that dont know, currently there is a humpback calf trapped in a harbour in sydney. The media has picked up on this and ran with it. It's either been abandoned by it's mother or it's mother is dead. Harsh reality, but this is nature, and yes it's cruel sometimes.

There is a national outcry that nothing is being done to save this creature, ignoring the fact there are zero facilities to house this massive creature and there is nothing in place to bring. People are trying to give the animal milk straight out of the carton

This is one thing i've never understood about people. Why is it that people that will blissfully carry on while millions are starving everyday, yet when one cute animal is abandoned (like thousands of people dont abandon their dogs every month) in a quite natural process, there's an national outcry and anger about the government not doing anything? Do what? Change nature??


I reject your reality and insert my own!
