[@Nocturnalux]

The cat can't see it, it's infrared. There's no way a cat would just stay put while a strong beam of light is trained on them, when it is pitch dark, too. If you shine a flashlight at a house cat in the middle of the night when the light is out (and please do not do this), the cat will dash away FAST. Let alone a wild cat that is already very wary of its environment.

And while I don't mean to sound like species extinction isn't something we should try to prevent, I will make the point that the only reason we exist, is because of a catastrophic mass extinction, which allowed our mammal antecedents to develop. I'm not sure how humans will become extinct, but I don't see us here in a million years, and in the wake there will be an entirely new crop of animals having a turn of the planet. In short, you honestly do not need to feel sad about it.

Keith A tiger whom teeth was damaged and hunt peoples for the sack of survival vs a tiger who completely healthy but hunt peoples for entertainment. In both scenarios, human lives have equal value. Now reversing that, human hunter, tiger hunted and which side now is more valuable?

It's so incredible what kind of animals exist. I wish humans would not decimate species so we have more of these highly adapted creatures.

[@HelloThere-xs8ss]

America and similar ways of life push the trend for other countries to decimate their ecosystem for profit. All consumers are guilty. Stop consuming

[@Kinofspawn]

Thing is, we are apart of life. And life finds away... More new animals come into existence every year then animals go extinct. People seem to want to take this moral high ground and "save" all the animals.. But all they are really doing is interfering with natural selection and making the ecosystem much worse. I have a great appreciation for animals and life, I just also understand that it's not the hunting of animals that ends them. Even when we do tend to over hunt an animal, said animals food source sky rockets and then, that animal that was over hunted comes back because they breed well. Most of the whole green peace save the whales save the polar bears people are just spewing bullshit so they keep getting funded.. Do your own research.

[@jollyjokress3852]

@@Kinofspawn this is plainly wrong. Species do not pop out of the earth like that. There are plenty more extinct yearly than do evolve... evolving takes time, decimating to extinction like humans does usually not. Actually never heard from scienctists: new species has evolved.

[@HelloThere-xs8ss]

@@Kinofspawn its not survival of the fittest when you drive past a fast food center (as an example). There's nothing hard about society anymore(at least in a first-world nation) which allows for people who, under harder conditions, would not be able to make it. There's going to be a correction in the human population when we begin to see the effects of water pollution, disease, etc. Hopefully triggering a series of events that leads to only the strongest of mankind surviving. Nature does have a way of correcting itself. If we alter the planet, so be it, but it comes at a price. Nothing we see was ever meant to last, and I think people should really acknowledge that.

[@arthas640]

@@HelloThere-xs8ss in the case of these fishing cats they're mostly being pushed out and hunted down by farmers and fisherman, who sell 99% of their products locally (most exported commercially sold seafood/fish in southeast Asia are from the area around Thailand and Vietnam). Other products like palm oil do have a global reach and a global demand however and that's something we can easily remedy by boycotting palm oil products.
