Martha's Vineyard Regional High School (for real)

Totally normal high school on a totally normal island. And we will be posting normal high school things here.

Why are the teachers at this school allergic to doing their fucking jobsss oh my god are you not supposed to care

My new year's resolution is to make my least favorite person quit by being a massive cunt.

Will it work? Absolutely not. But I do it for the love of the game, not the end result

Bro the 6 o'clock is not worth ittttt

Regretting every choice I've ever made and also crashing out

I feel like wildlife education/animal ethics should be a required school subject for this very reason. These are likely the same people that would get out of their cars to go out and pet the bison in Yellowstone.

To explain for anyone who doesn’t understand why that’s not going to happen:

On most public lands units the MO for staff is to let nature take its course. If people stepped in every time an animal was injured, there would be a ton of sick, injured animals living unnaturally long lives, there would be less prey for predators, and you’d be preventing the natural course of the ecosystem.

It’s additionally cruel to artificially prolong the life of a wild animal in pain. Prosthetics need to be removed, cleaned, repaired. Medical intervention often requires followups. For ungulates injured limbs often cause life long pain and long slow recoveries, which is why even much loved horses often need to be put down due to broken limbs because their quality of life during and after healing is often MUCH reduced.

Feeding wild animals often causes dependency, and results in animals who don’t know how to forage for their own food. It also makes them more susceptible to disease (which is why a lot of winter ungulate feeding is getting shut down right now with CWD all over the place).

In the end, intervening for this moose would deny money to programs that help at an ecosystem/landscape level, probably not extend the animal’s life all that much, and deny a meal to predators and scavengers.

It’s good to be empathetic toward animals, but an individual animal naturally moving through the circle of life does not need you help, and torturing an animal so you can feel good about yourself doesn’t help anyone.

Nature is brutal.

I was originally going to comment on how stupid it is to think a regular vet can deal with a wild moose, (a mother with a calf!!) but yeah some of y'all didnt watch enough nature documentaries that side with the wolf

[avoiding-claws]

I think the massive issue here is people assuming you can treat a wild moose (with a calf!) like a domestic dog with a limp. Or even a horse.

People are absurd, I would love to see them try to carry out literally any of their suggestions.

How, pray tell, are you tranquillising that moose? How are you moving her into, and keeping her stress-free, in a warm place?
