Ewaso Lions

an adult male leopard eating an adult female leopard can’t be wide spread for it will be the end of his species. like most predators, leopards are opportunists . so meat is meat to him i guess. i also read one case where two male lions kept killing all the lionesses they came across in kenya. can’t remember when or where in kenya. but the two bad boys were put to sleep by the wildlife officials and thank them for it.

i just read a blog from lion guardians which also had one female elephant who had been speared by locals and died. the reason for this unfortunate event was the elephant was eating up their crops. whenever the locals tried to scare her off, she came back! she died days later and she might be a mother or about to be. things must be really bad for elephants now due to the lack of rain.

so what will they do to the baby elephant? if the baby were to be rescued, wouldn’t such act be interfering nature? i know no one will pick up a lion or leopard cub abandoned by its mother unless the mother has been killed by humans. or elephants are above other species?

As long as Man is on the planet, there is no such thing as ‘nature taking its course’, if that means Man not getting involved. Man is everywhere and has affected everything. We need to help the animals as much as we can, to offset the devastating effect we’ve had on them. Man is at his best when he is a protector of nature, not (as some think) a lord over nature. If we were lord over nature, we could fix what we’ve destroyed, but what is gone is gone forever. The animals are good people with good hearts and feeling like us. They deserve better than what we have done and do every day to them.
