or we could let an unnecessary danger to swimmers die.
No the fuck we canât. Because last I checked humans donât own the fucking ocean, and last I checked, theyâre IMPORTANT apex predators, a super necessary part of the ecosystem. Not to mention NEW YORKERS bite 10x as many people as sharks do a year. More people die from lightning and fireworks than form sharks.
Sharks arenât a problem. They never have been. People are.
if you swim where the sharks are, itâs on you buddy, the animal gotta eat you donât gotta swim
To @keyhollow let sharks die naturally, donât go hunting them. Last I checked thereâs no such thing as an important apex predator. Why on Earth are New Yorkers biting people? Know what we did to lightning? We found ways to deal with them. Iâd say firework damage is usually from stupidity.
To @jeza-red so nobody can enjoy the beach now. The animal doesnât got to eat innocent bystanders that are definitely not fish.
Iâm gonna ignore 95% of that and focus on the apex predator part.
Theyâre super important because they control prey animal populations, of prey animal populations get out of control it can heavily and possibly irreversibly damage flora, other fauna, and land. A keystone predator is literally irreplaceable
AÂ âkeystone predatorâ is nowhere near irreplaceable.
Do you know what keystone means??
First off, calling something a keystone predator is erroneous at best. Second, keystones can be replaced.
No
You literally just have no idea what youâre talking about.
@miasmicsiren If youâre too stupid to read adult content, thereâs even a childrenâs book on the subject!
Cherrypicking sources from shark apologists wonât work for you either.
Ah yes. âShark apologistsâ. Those who defend the problematic behavior of *checks notes* preserving species and protecting the ecosystem.
Whatâs with all these bitches who saw Jaws once and feel like every shark needs to die
What in the fuck is this bitch talking about âKeystone predators can be replacedâ WHAT
Iâm still stuck on âShark Apologistâ
Reblog if youâre a Shark Apologist
IâŚ.. tumblr can be a scary place I never thought I would hear the word shark apologist in my life butâŚ. here we are
also sharks have terrible site and more often than not they let go once they realize theyre not biting into a seal.
i get the feeling the idiot who thinks sharks arent important probably also hates other animals with bad reputations like snakes, spiders and pitbulls.
i will never forgive the internet for what it did to the word “mansplain”
mansplaining is a very specific phenomonon wherein a man who is NOT qualified to talk about a topic assumed he knows better than other people who ARE qualified, purely because of sexism.
sharing a fun fact you learned isnt mansplaining. infodumping isnt mansplaining. adding your relevant personal experience to a discussion isn’t mansplaining, (as long as you remain respectful of others’ experiences as well, but that’s always true). correcting someone who is objectively wrong and spreading misinformation REALLY isn’t mansplaining.
stop telling men that all of their interests and attempts at socializing are insulting and unwanted, your gender essentialism is showing.
people in my REAL LIFE i have had to convince i like to hear them talk, really:
trans men talking about their oppression
trans women talking about their oppression
autistic men infodumping
perfectly kind cis men who are answering a question i literally asked, or getting passionate about one of their interests
people who AREN’T self-conscious about this:
men who actually fucking mansplain, oh my god the whole POINT is that they dont care about other people’s thoughts, why do you think whatever this fucking campaign is would bother them
