      Nonhuman animals do not have a special sense for kindness that humans don’t have. That would be impossible because kindness is not some measurable trait. If they did have such a thing, all meat animals would murder their keepers, knowing their intentions.

      The only connection is HUMAN = FOOD. That's it, that's where this whole connection is based on. And it counts for every single video where wild animals visit people over and over. It's actually harmful to the animals since they lose their fear of humans and this can cause major problems.

    • @Leith_Crowther
      @Leith_Crowther 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +10

      ⁠@@MetzManThis is also an overgeneralization. In fact, feeding these cranes is ILLEGAL, so we can presume the humans never fed them. Birds are social animals already, so it’s not weird for them to actually want to be around another creature because it’s THAT creature. It’s unusual for them to be curious about humans, maybe, but if they’ve never actually had a bad experience with a human yet then they might not have that fear of them.

    With the increase of people moving to Florida since Covid, and with more drivers and delivery services, it’s incredibly important to have patience and respect towards wildlife.

      It's a relatively open area and you would think people would slow down seeing the water nearby.
      I rescued a turtle once on a busy road and I kid you not some of those cars actually drove faster when I waved to them to slow down.
      Luckily, a good Samaritan pulled over to help me (the turtle was huge) and it had a good ending.

      For several reasons. 1 - I carry some personal trauma growing up where kids have harmed animals for fun. (Kids who grow up with bad parents, so they take their frustrations out on innocent creatures) 2 - In a day and age where the pressure of delivery and impatience has caused many people behind the wheel to have a sense of urgency (Plus the dependency and distractions of phones for directions and notifications) 3 - The purpose of social media to inform the public, but only sharing bad news for reactions, with little to no solution that should follow. 4 - Because I strongly believe it's my responsibility to try my best to be more alert in my surroundings while driving (especially in smaller town/park/neighborhood areas that are unfamiliar) which might have kids, pets or wildlife. It's a mix of what I'm seeing and have experienced with the majority of the public, and honestly for selfish reasons for my reactions which I should take more responsibility for, but it's difficult not to be upset when something or someone innocent is harmed, whether it's on purpose or by accident (which is understood). That being said, you make a good point about pointing out why it upsets me. I think dwelling on situations like this only makes the situation worse. So I think the best thing now is to seek solutions - Encouraging younger drivers to be more aware of safe driving in areas that could have active wildlife, seek protection and care for threatened species due to various human activities, and finding more ways to merge wildlife studies with politics, because even though we can't change the way the world operates today, we can hopefully influence the new generation to be more kind and conscientious in the environment they grow up in.❤‍🩹 @@kareysmithPA
