they're taking something that is obviously untrue (ie, that a giant crocodile that obviously mostly ate fish is actually bigger and better than the REAL apex predator) and pumping it up so when the truth comes out everyone is demoralized. People who notice patterns of paleontological disinformation were not impacted but millions of little boys who were coming of age during the Jurassic Park 3 era were gaslit into worshiping a false idol, only to get rugpulled and demoralized. Ever wonder why 25% of gen Z men are homosexual? Coincidence? Nope. All a-cohen to plan.

How would you solve india's dog problem?

I've been reading about indian dogs. India's stray dog population is exploding out of control. There are more dogs in india today than ever before in history. Earlier there were tigers in india that ate the dogs but now a lack of tigers means dogs breed freely.

Indian dogs are very aggressive. They eat children alive, bite anyone riding a bike, and bite for no reason. India has the highest dog bite cases globally, and this number is rising. India also has a big rabies problem. It is one of the few countries today where it is common for humans to get rabies(even a scratch from a dog leads to rabies).

Dogs poop everywhere, and die on the streets leading to widespread infectious diseases. Dogs have also taken a scavenger role as vultures went extinct in india. But dogs feeding on human bodies spreads like disease like wildfire.

How can india solve the dog question?

Sounds less like a problem and more like a solution. Dogs truly are man's best friend.

>>5097303
It still blows my mind when I see dumbfucks defend stray dogs in my country. They bark non-stop all night, die in really miserable ways(one stray puppy was dead after catching rabies but it managed to infect its sibling before it died), make driving in this shithole worse than it already is and people still feed these little shits. What even goes on their minds?

>Maurice Vidal Portman (21 March 1860 – 14 February 1935) was a British naval officer, who is best known for documenting several Andamanese tribes between 1879 and 1901 when he was posted as a superintendent of the Andaman Island Penal Colony.[1]

>Portman continued to take photographs of the Andamanese in Port Blair until the end of his stay in the island, documenting information about their anthropological details, showing a marked interest in measuring the penises of the Andamanese.[6][7] A significant portion of his photography involved posing the Andamanese in mock-Greek homoerotic compositions. Portman repeatedly praised the male Andamanese body, writing that "many of the men are very good-looking; as they have none of the thick lips, high cheekbones, and flat noses of the negro type; though the women are rather of the Hottentot Venus order of beauty"

>He never married and left no descendants.[1]
>>
>>5100787
>In 1880, in an effort to establish contact with the Sentinelese, Portman, who was serving as a colonial administrator to the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, led an armed group of Europeans along with convict-orderlies and Andamanese trackers[clarification needed] (whom they had already befriended) to North Sentinel Island. On their arrival, the islanders fled into the treeline. After several days of futile search, during which they found abandoned villages and paths, Portman's men captured six people: an elderly man, a woman and four children.[41][42] The man and woman died of illness shortly after their arrival in Port Blair and the children began to fall ill as well. Portman hurriedly sent the children back to North Sentinel Island with a large quantity of gifts in an attempt to establish friendly relations.[18] Portman visited the island again in 1883,[30] 1885 and 1887.[40]

Thoughts on 2d mustelids?

26 years ago when I was a little boy, my neighbor killed a horse.

Her and my mom were close friends. My mom led me to the horse and it bit my hand. I was completely ok with it. There was no bleeding. I put my hand out with closed fingers.

As far as I know, my parents neighbor, instructed someone to call the city or, unlikely called them herself, to report the horse for rabies. The horse was shot and there was no follow-up. I was then blamed for the death by my family.

I know for a fact that my neighbor killed this horse because she didn’t like the sounds it made.

Now she is joining animal welfare groups. I’m trying to figure out what to do. I believe she has no right.

Any thoughts on what I could do?
