Decades ago I read a book in which humans were the only space-faring species that still had wildlife wandering their home world. This story reminded me of that. It's very enjoyable. Humans are just happily bumbling around on their death world.

Huh. I didn't realize that electric eels lived in the Amazon. I always thought they were ocean dwellers.

[@imweakfordeaky]

Alligators don’t live in the Amazon either, even though they were named in this story as living there… Alligators can only be found in North America (the American Alligator of the Southeast US) and in China (in the Lower Yangtze River region). The Chinese Alligator is approximately half the size of their American counterparts (Chinese Gator at full growth is 7 ft long, while American Gators can be 14-15 ft at full growth)

[@mvpdjg4965]

Probably was thinking Crocs or Cayman

[@rattailcole3376]

Electric eels are freshwater fish found within the Amazon area, primarily in slow-moving rivers or stagnant ponds. As far as calling the crocodilians in the Amazon Alligators, the spastic, avian-like ambassador likely doesn't know the difference between crocs, caimans, gators, and gharials, and calls them all alligators.

[@anormalpotato2887]

It could be that they migrated there, this story is in the future and we should not judge it by todays standarts.

[@AlexSDU]

@@anormalpotato2887 If an alligator release in the Amazon, what are the chances of it to survive there, instead of becoming an invasive species?

[@rurikaunimoto]

Weirdly accurate though if you think about it. Aliens very well could just not have predators in some of their worlds... hard to think of ours as a death world though.

[@yumisuremaki2748]

who's gonna tell them the humans have domesticated a few of the predators and turn them into loyal pets that loves them (dogs cats and many other animals)

[@meriemmahdi5527]

Haha, just don't let them know about the rich middle Eastern pets, imagine them finding out about this Arab dude that was playing tag with his Bear, and the hejib girl bring her run away teenage lion home like holding a toddler having a tantrum and the list goes on...lol

[@taitano12]

If the rest of the Galaxy's inhabited planets are as soft as this implies, I think we would be willing to uphold the quarantine. But it would be a great tourist trap as well. Xenos could rent armored exoskeletons and mech suits with exaggerated safety features to play up the danger. With a proper human guide, one of the Erwins, for instance, they wouldn't need any suit beyond what's needed for the environment and climate, but we don't need to let the average tourists know that.😉💰💵💷💳🤑

[@alexisgrunden1556]

Because we're too blasé about the dangers of our planet. There's literally Floridians who call gators "swamp puppies" and will try to pet them. Out in the wild.

aparentemente lo hizo pero los humanos no le dimos importancia, soy del caribe y lo entiendo, aveces se cuelan escorpiones y serpientes en las casas y no le damos mayor importancia, los sacamos afuera y ya. Y con respecto a las arañas en particular a mi me gustan asi q no me importa tenerlas en la casa, ademas q comen otros insectos molestos, mientras no las molesten no te pican. Entiendo q si me preguntaran si mi casa donde he vivido desde niño es peligrosa diria q no facilmente, tendria q pensarlo bien para notar q de hecho se puede llenar muy facil de cosas peligrosas y desagradables para alguien q no sepa como lidiar con ellas 😆

[@SlimeyZockt]

[@jasperscheerlinck8170]

I'm surprised they didn' talk about skarks or orkas, those can be terrifying, especially the latter

[@randar1969]

While they look manacing i take an orca anytime over a shark.. Orca attacks on humans are very few and realy extremely rare. Once an orca not in captivity encounters a human in the sea they never attack. the very few incidents where most likely accidents where the orca thought the human was a sea lion. Or when they where hunted by humans and just defending themselves.

[@bjbear5202]

Orcas are only dangerous to rich snobs in yachts.

I discovered these HFY videos a few days ago and have been slowly working though them.
