    Well said. There’s a part of me that desperately wants to know there is a true, pure species on this planet that doesn’t stoop to sick levels of cruelty, but that’s not reality. Bambi noms baby birds, cetaceans mutilate each other’s babies, and we do the unthinkable every second of every day. Depressing, but here we are.

      Bees are a democracy. Sure, they treat outsiders with suspicion and can be radicalised to great violence, but they’re one of the only animals on earth that eats without killing anything, not even a plant. And if they don’t like their queen, they have a revolution. They’re communists.

      Quokka! They eat leaves, they have no idea about predators so are incredibly trusting and keep their babies in little pouches.
