Our Relationship with Wild Animals
I was astonished to find myself agreeing with someone talking on the telly. He said something like-‘We are living in too close a proximity to wild animals.’. Once again the fault of Capitalism. The Capitalism that lays waste many natural habitats. So that the animals are forced into trying to survive in urban areas. There was a programme I once watched about it. Wild animals on the outskirts of a Durban I think . My point here is that who knows what medical issues could arise from more and more contact with wild animals and humans? Maybe another virus could ‘jump’ from them to us over time?
Allied -there’s a celeb news story at the moment. Joe ‘Exotic’ has said that his ex wife fed her ex husband to a tiger. Only in America as they say. They had a ‘private zoo’ together. Isn’t there something immensely shitty about a private individual being allowed to have a tiger?I dont think private individuals shoukd be allowed to keep wild animals at all. Wild animals should be er…in the wild.
I’ve got to say even though it seems harmless I don’t like people who keep snakes or lizards as pets. Couldn’t there be risks to human health because of it? Couldn’t another ‘virus’ jump that we didn’t know about?
This Coronavirus emergency is making me jumpy I expect but I just feel there could be dangers.
The Chinese. In fact all South East Asia. You know they drug little tepiles and send them by post to Australia. In the hope some will revive after the journey. I suppose the recients consider themselves ‘animal lovers’. Is it just to have something exotic?
We must respect a nation’s customs. But how in the hell did Rhino horn become such a prized aphrodisiac in China? There are no rhinos in China.
The trouble with it of course to get the horn it you have to kill the Rhino.
In my research for this (quick look on Wikipedia) I read of some South American tribe that have had their land confiscated by some capitalist endeavour. And they are now reduced to capturing baby monkeys from the jungle to sell on. Again isn’t there a risk to human health in this trade?

I blame China.
Not just for the cruel trade in wildlife but for everything.
The picture at the top of a bloke slipping a cheetah some tongue?
Chinese specialty porn.
An I want a refund for my baby monkey!
Thought itd be full of fun but just sat looking stunned!
Had a chest infection too.
Let it go on NHS grounds, theyll help it, obviously really ill.

The problem with baby monkeys MNC is that they grow up and end up looking like this.

Hehee!
Do you know Cupid before I looked at the image I thought ‘flabbott or Lammy” ..☺👍👍

I would hate to labelled sexist so here is Lammy with a ‘friend’ at the Labour Party Conference (our Dave is the one on the left.)

Capitalism Miles? Are the Chinese capitalists? Our hunter gatherer ancestors would be puzzled by the concept of living too close to nature.
American Indians for example considered themselves part of nature, here you demonstrate how humanity has separated itself from nature to the degree we see ourselves as separate from it.
For me it’s not that we live to close to nature but that we have separated ourselves from it as if we are not part of it.
17
‘Are the Chinese capitalists?’
Of course they are SV. Everyone knows that China is only nominally Communist. They’re as Capitalist as as any country here in the West. In fact more so-equally destructive in their scramble for the world’s resources.
In line with the subject the Nom they are ‘rabidly’ Capitalist.

It depends on your definition of capitalism Miles. Do you know a better system? I’d be interested to hear it?

Distributism Sixdog.

Seems like another name for socialism, based on catholic teachings? There’s a pyramid scheme then. I prefer a system where Everyone can exchange their labour for a fair wage. Capitalism is fine, the fact they have removed necessary regulation isn’t. The term free market has been debased by those who fix the market for their cronies.
I’ll never support redistribution of wealth on a large scale, it’s never worked and never will.
1
My thoughts precisely Sixdog. Socialism with a sky fairy twist.
1
I always have a slight uneasy feeling when I use the word ‘Capitalism’. Such an easy thing to say.
I remember RT saying to me ages ago- ‘everything else (apart from Capitalism) is anti aspirational pie in the sky’ and that rang true.
I said the other day that I recognise that there is creativity in Capitalism but also that it is immensely destructive. I wonder if RT or indeed you SV would concede that it can be immensely destructive?
But see there again I haven’t defined what Capitalism is.
Just thinking there I would say that we are supposed to live in a ‘free market’ economy. But Capitalism is not a ‘free market’. Makes it unfree.
Or something.
So hard to define as I say.
RT jumps straight in with ‘do you want to live in Venezuela’ when I mention Capitalism. As I said earlier the opposite of Socialism/ Communism is not not Capitalism it’s Fascism.
Capitalism is not a political ideology.
This is the very influential essay by Chesterton that really triggered the Distributist movement. An entertaining read even if you are skeptical,

Thanks Miles, I’ll give it a read in bed.

I saw that Tiger King programme. He’s a charismatic feller but the way he treated the animals was awful. Deservedly in prison. In the end he was so greedy he couldn’t give a shit about the animals. They don’t belong in cages and he was parading them like it was entertainment. All those zoo-owners seem to be fookin weirdos.
15
Is it worth watching? I’m thinking doing so but it ain’t usually my type of thing.
3
Not really. It’s a documentary that’s made to be a drama. Lots of incidental music to ramp up the tension but the premise is private zoos and their weird owners. A woman tried to shut them down and there’s a campaign of hate against her. Some of the owners are properly odd. Perverted, old geezers who want to make a buck. Bunch of cunts.
5
The Beeb have got Louis Theroux’s show on people who keep wild animals and this bellend’s in it. It’s from a few years ago but it’s very interesting. It’s on iplayer.

Living next to them is fine…..However eating the fuckers is a whole different ball game.
12
Far too close to wild animals

Only animal I don’t like is them Polar Bears. A polar bear will pick up the scent of a man, stalk him, kill him and eat him. If the Arctic Circle sank in to the sea tomorrow and drown all the fucking polar bears, I would sleep easier in my bed. Why don’t the fucking Chinese eat polar bears? That would sort the cunts out! Flash fried with ginger and chilies, served on a bed of Bok Choi with a dressing of soy and sesame seed oil. CUNTS! Both of them – Chinese and polar bears.
8
I would like to withdraw my Polar Bear comment. On reflection it was probably motivated by me, as a young boy, catching my father rutting my mum on a fake polar bear rug in the front room on Christmas Eve. I still detest the Chinks though!
20
Despite Herefords well documented polar bear problem dont eat them!
The liver is that rich in iron itll poison you (true).
5
Dancing with some of the fat local lasses in their fake fur coats at Christmas is like being attacked by a Bear!…Liver on most of em is pickled but will leave it anyway. Thanks for the heads up MNC!

Whilst I was out for a jog yesterday in my local country park, a dog walker asked me if I’d seen the mother swan today, I hadn’t and she told me someone had battered the male swan to death a few days ago and now the mother swan wasn’t feeding because she wouldn’t leave the nest.
Now we’re all cunts from time to time, but that is some evil cuntishness. I often wonder if selfishness is just a human trait, and not just we as humans think we’re more important than everything else, but as individuals we think we’re better than every other human too.
The way some people have no regard for animals, people, their local environment makes me wish this virus was more devastating.
20
One of these days some stupid bastards in CHY-NA will let a virus loose which will finish off the human race for good. The yellow cunts have already tried it twice. And all the animals will be a better off. The dogs will miss us to start with.
11
The current pandemic, and previous pandemics, originated in China. That’s Feudal and Communist China. Presumably the OP believes Capitalism was also to blame for the Black Death which wiped out half the population of Europe in the Middle Ages?
And Communism is certainly no slouch when it comes to destroying natural habitats and polluting the environment. I’ll be out clapping on Thursday for Capitalism, without which the NHS would be fucked.
18
Indeed RTC. Large areas of the former Soviet Union are an arid, polluted wasteland cluttered with junked nuclear submarines, rotting military aircraft and vehicles and unfinished glory projects.
Fuck socialism and every deluded middle class arsehole or self proclaimed “academic” (pfft!) who supports it… 😁
11
The opposite of Communism is not Capitalism. The opposite of Communism is Fascism.
5
Yet they look so alike.
Could be twins…😆😆😆
11
Two totalitarian sides of the same coin.
6
Capitalism is the synthesis of both fascism and communism, think of both political idealogies as a early rough draft before capitalism. Crony capitalism is no better imo
1
Even if that were true (which it isn’t) Capitalism predated Communism and Fascism by at least 100 years…

Any animal unnecessarily caged is a crime against nature and worst of all for some reason, is a bird….
In other news..
My lad hinted that he wanted a goldfish so I headed to the pet shop.
I said, “I don’t know anything about keeping fish but my lad wants a goldfish, can you help.”
Pet shop owner said, “Do you want an aquarium..?”
I said, “I don’t give a fuck what it’s star sign is, just a goldfish.”….
22
That made me laugh aloud J.R., thank you.

A Tommy Cooper joke, worthy of repetition.

Our Relationship with Wild Animals:
Basically and in simple terms we should leave them well alone. The Human Race should not interfere with them, any/none of them.
And we should reserve millions of square miles for them to live in without being interfered.
It should be a criminal offence to meddle with them.
David Attenborough had the right idea, it is okay to observe them, and that’s it.
Incidentally, the wet/bat market is a red herring it is fake news. The China Pandemic did not fucking come from a few men eating a few under cooked bats.
The China Virus came out of the virology lab and I am pretty strong on it being intentional, intentional released and intentionally propagated to all four corners of the world, intentionally both to big countries in Europe (and US) and also to arsehole end of bit like NZ, Iceland, Greenland, Solomon Islands and various sandbanks in the mid Pacific.
14
Owain,
I agree apart from David Attenbore. He has made a living from watching animals fuck…..The last one I watched he was going on about a female fish that changes in to a male, even he is peddling his woke fucking LGPGTips agenda. Fucking pervert needs a 9mm parabellum down his japs eye…..provide him with some clarity. CUNT!
9
Lol1 Very Good
I like watching animals fuck, namely 18 years old female bimbettes in Silicon valley or Budapest with a penchant for energetic anal sex, very favorite kind of wildlife watching.
3
Keeping wild animals is never a good idea.
They’re wild. The clue is in the name.
From the silly tart who’s pet chimp tore the face off her friend, to the fucking idiots who think they can cage and tame big cats and are subsequently found torn to bits.
Wildlife 1 – Humans nil.
I love animals of all kinds. The wild ones are best observed as part of a documentary.
11
Its living in concrete pollution ridden cities that seems to have become almost ‘natural’ to some but surely humans arn’t biologically programmed to live on top of each other in their hundreds of thousands.
Hence city dwellers, even neighbors, ignore each other and become utterly selfish.
7
If this cunting had been for the baser aspects of human nature, I would have been onboard. But it’s not, so I’m not.
Nice to know you’re against fox hunting though Miles. 👍
10
I wholeheartedly wish that wild animals would come that much closer to us and kill off scores of clueless cunts.
14
Ex useless Man United reject and utter bellend, Memphis Depay (how could he not be a cunt with a name like that?) has a ‘pet’ lion and has had lion tattoos all over. His narcissistic showboating on social media will give you the full story on what a cunt he is.
With any luck, the poor animal will grow up and eat the fucker.
13
Admin, should have i refered to it as “Mr. 9mm parabellum round” ?
3
I would quite like a pet chimp but the Mrs will have to do.
Red in tooth and claw..
Also:Fuck the Chinese.
10
I love a story where some thick, soppy cunt fucks around with wild animals and gets chopped. Only yesterday I was reading about some dozy bitch in South Carolina who wanted to get “close to the alligators.” Surprise surprise, one of them leapt up and dragged her into the water and killed her. No tears from me, shouldn’t be such a thick cunt should you? Fuck around with wild animals and they will fuck you back. Where there are humans around they have a hard enough life anyway so leave the bastards alone.
12
Possibly my favourite tv show is ‘when animals attack’ .
From crocs, chimps, bears to moose etc
I sit with tears rolling down my face and cant breathe for laughing!
Animals are great!
Nice to see them get the upper hand for once.
12
MNC, have you seen them honey badgers, program on last year. Fucking hell. Like the mammal equivalent of Roberto Duran….Horrible cunts!
5
My favourites the one with the bear attacking a women in a radio station, the owner in a karate suit trying to stop it Daz!!😁
Admin put it on here once, its great!
Karate doesnt work on bears by the way!
8
MNC. Hahahaha. I’m gonna buy some of sticks with a chain ……Nuna Chaku and try twatting abear with it in my bear suit…film it and get it on here..
5
My favourite videos are the ones where the bull outsmarts the “brave” cunts stabbing and/or taunting them. The instantaneous remission of any testicular courage they had, when they realise the bull can indeed outwit and reach them, and the way their jeers turned to panicked screaming as they frantically scurry away, never ceases to warm my cockles.
Even better when the bull includes a free prostate exam with the charge, or introduces its horn to the inner workings of some faggy matador’s weak chin.
14
I’m of a similar mindset.
Seeing a stuntman’s throat ripped open by a Grizzly’s jaws makes you appreciate the speed and power of these animals.
The chimp that ripped a woman’s face off was being fed psychotropic drugs to calm it down.

Trying to drink from its watering hole, or… fucking it from behind??

Miles, I suspect that 95% of your concerns could be addressed by simply leaving London?
8
Ah yes, the noble North American indiginy.
Feeling peckish? Want some new pants or a new home?
Let’s drive this herd of bison over a cliff.
I wonder what happened to the Aral Sea. And all the little fishies therein.
Remember the Chinese cunning plan to stop sparrows eating the grain.
And where did all the pangolin go?
8
I was just minded of Steve Stupid Irwin and his Stingray or whatever it was. He was setting a bad example.
I feel that the Human Race is becoming far too urbanised indeed.
Just watching an excellent Doc “PLANDEMIC” this isn’t spam, it’s very worthwhile

I dont mind spam. Fried not cold.
That Tony Falatio or what ever is name is sounds crooked….
3
Hopefully the next series of Love Island will be relocated to the middle of the Congo.
They could call it ‘I want to be a Celebrity, why has that Chimp got blood ’round his chops?’
5
That Steve Irwin cunt got what he deserved when messing with a stingray.
Ha! Ha!
7
Yeah, I never liked the cunt, he was among the new breed of animal botherers. Who needs a zoom lens to film a snake in a tree, Steve will bash it down with a stick, then poke it a bit, so it shows its teeth. Fucking twat, nature caught up with the cunt and gave him an ironic ending.
6
I liked Steve earwig.
Heart was in the right place.
He was obviously a bit downs or something,
But to touchy feely, wild animals should be respected.
That stingrays tv career was ruined by that.
8
Afternoon MCN
I was surprised that a stingray did for him after all that croc wrestling.
3
Yeah pushed his luck didnt he?
Liked his overenthusiasm and his khakis!
But Down syndrome and wild animals will always end that way.
Law of the jungle isnt it?😲

So very true.

Timothy Treadwell, got at home with the grizzly contingent, went to theirs for supper.
He got away with it for 13 years mind.

Hopefully another virus will make the jump and wipe out half of the world’s population. The human race is the biggest Cancer to ever affect the planet.
4
Wild animals are precisely that…wild. People mess with them at their own risk.
I hate zoos.
4
Haven’t been to a zoo or circus since I was a small kid.
I believe circuses are dying out; so many freaks out there, all free of charge.
2
It doesn’t matter because the rinky dinks won’t change their ways. And more importantly, they won’t be called out for eating bats’ bollocks mixed with goz and viruses.
It’ll be Trump’s fault and ours.
