Good Morning Facebook Friends One thing we, as humans, seem to forget at times is that we are large, imposing and to many smaller species, we are indeed a predator. It really doesn’t matter if you eat meat or not, in the natural world, humans are predators and animals are quite aware of this fact. We receive a lot of calls from people saying, “but it isn’t moving” when speaking of fledgling birds, young rabbits, sometimes young squirrels and many other species. What we’d like people to do at this time is step back and become very aware of things from the animal’s perspective. They are small and helpless and this very large predator is standing over them, possibly holding them in their hands, speaking to them with a mouth full of teeth! Would you move? Or would you be frozen in fear? I’ve had people tell me when I’ve explained this, “well, I’m a vegetarian, so I’m not a predator”. As much as it would be really nice to be able to explain this to the animal and have them breathe a sigh of relief, animals instincts are based on nature, not your chosen diet. Please, keep in mind your place in nature when you are around wildlife. Have a beautiful day all!
