putting things into perspective
after these past few weeks of bickering and everyone feeling down as a result, i just wanna say a few things that is close to my heart, so please respect this.
quite a few years ago now, the worlds most renowned animal conservationist family lost 1 of there own and today they still do what he taught them as they knew that it would be his wishes.
this man went by the name of Steve Irwin and his main goal in life was to protect animals from extinction and conserve there natural habitats as best as he could, whether it be a large croc or the smallest creature, he loved them all and would rescue the animal regardless to what its size or manner of aggression or its personality, he wanted the creatures of this planet to always have a place where they belong.
through him, these animals become part of us, as he introduced them to our hearts and showed us that they aint something to kill and mistreat or to take for granted, but to respect, appreciate and to love them for what they are and try to educate us in how to deal with these animals without causing any harm to ourselves or them, should we ever need to confront the animals for what ever reason.
he also taught us the ways of the animals in how they go about there business and i feel that over the past few years, without the great man showing us how, that we have forgotten that its these animals that needs us to ensure there survival and well being.
this is after all a forum to do with animal welfare, so why the bickering as its not us that are important here, but the animals that we have to enjoy and look after as we keep them for our own pleasure and desires and its those reasons why we should forget the differences of opinions and respect each other.
this is really all i have to say.

Re: putting things into perspective
Hmm, I may have to disagree....
I didn't like Steve Irwin, didn't agree with the way he went about things but I shall say no more for now as I may be in the minority here....
