This fish is called the Devil’s Hole Pupfish, and as of 2025 there are 263 of them. They grow to be less than 1 inch and are only found in one pond in Death Valley. They live in 93° F water, and can only spawn/breed in a rock shelf situated in the bottom of Devil’s hole, but scientists have managed to breed them in facilities as well. These fish have been isolated for thousands of years in this body of water and are unique. That being said, 3 men who were randomly shooting guns in the area decided to get drunk nearby Devil’s Hole before one of them jumped in the water, and another one vomited on the fish. The left shotgun shells and empty beer cans near the water too.https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2016/may/13/pupfish-dead-death-valley-national-park-nevada-arrests-drunkLater on in 2018, 2 of them plead guilty to pleaded guilty to violations of the Endangered Species Act and destruction of government property, while the 3rd was also charged with being a felon in possession of a firearm on top of that too:https://www.nps.gov/deva/learn/news/two-plead-guilty-to-violations-at-devils-hole.htmThe species rebounded luckily reaching an all time high in population this year. Has something like this ever happened in your country with super rare native animal species?
why is this newsworthy? why does it matter? why is government time and resources being dedicated to this fish? what does this fish contribute to our nation or even its own local ecosystem?

>>522017342Preservation of animals is usually a priority, especially when they are the rarest. Why do you ask this?
>>522017393>Preservation of animals is usually a priority, especially when they are the rarest. Why do you ask this?because i want to know what the net benefit to our society and nation is
>>522017487If you can’t see it, then you are probably not appreciating life that muchNot a big deal to me, but to conservation types and other scientific professionals who get grants and other things it’s a very big deal
>>522017580>nothing, this is just an emotional argument commie scientists use to get government gibsgotcha
>>522017642How is this emotional? Are you dense? This is a scientific endeavor Lol, I hope some drunk guys vomit on you too
>>522017152Someone should just have a drone drop a 16 ounce bottle of 38% permetrhin in the hole and be done with the conservation BS around a functionally doomed species that is not allowed to be kept in aquariums.
>>522017813Wouldn’t work, since they’re in facilities too, unless you’re really into Taliban tier turbo terror, which I do not recommend
>>522017737to what end. why is the government dedicating time and resources to it. help me understand>Save the Devil’s Hole Pupfish. 263 of these exist in one pond on the entire planet>???>a net benefit to the society and nationeither there's an answer or its just some shitlib somewhere wanting to save a fish that isnt doing anything useful for anyone so they can feel good about themselves
>>522017152Damn that's cool as fuck. It's like a metaphor for native Europeans
>>522017878It baffles me that you’re calling species conservation a “shitlib” thingGet vomited on
>>522017185Retards
>>522017323You need to cage the entire area and put electric barbed wire around the perimeter.A sign or a fine or a simple fence is not enough.
>>522017878retard>>522017185your retard cousins
>>522017942you dont have an answer because there isnt one. society and the ecosystem will lack for absolutely nothing if 263 fish in one pond in one desert vanish. this is liberal feel good bullshit and a thread died for it. waste of time.
>>522017642Every extinction closes the door on potential medical breakthroughs and scientific advances that could save lives and reduce healthcare costs. Many species have traits humans cannot engineer but can learn frombut more importantly and equally as valid is the moral and cultural value. It's hard to give a correct nominal value on this but with regards to you it doesn't matter as your value is very low, obsolete even
>>522017152What a fucking retarded bank of fishes, I would have tanked all that.
>>522018195You're supposed to keep the mask firmly affixed to your face, not shit on it in the street.
>>522018346You know what? I am sorry. I posted a quite stupid comment. I actually find very frustrating that people can be so disrespectful to endangered species and I vented by writting a retarded attempt of a joke. I am sorry.
>>522017152>Has something like this ever happened in your country with super rare native animal species?When whites came to our continent and nearly made us extinct. We are coming back for vengeance and blood amerikkka
>>522017642>muh commiesBrown mentality
>>522017152There a several species of Pupfish in the Ash Meadows area. I grew up near there and used to swim with the Pupfish. The springs were warm year round and amazing to swim in. The Point of Rocks Springs was a favorite swim hole and looks like a giant natural hot tub.
>>522018128No you, a kike, is convincing me muh pup fish would've saved millions of shitskins kys
>>522017487you wouldn't get it
>>522017152>Has something like this ever happened in your country with super rare native animal species?Back during WWII, uncle Adolf tried to delete a sub-species of hominoid from Terra. Not all were eradicated and after putting them on a list of endangered, their numbers have intensified similar to a rodent population at a landfill. Was Adolf correct? I dunno. I do hope the fishes survive.
>>522017487Your a nigger, thats why
>>522017152Why are these fish important?
>>522017393Because in most cases it's absurd. This is a fish in the hottest desert on earth that lives in a glorified puddle that has no business being there and sooner or later won't be. It's a doomed species and it's only a matter of when not if. And it's not even a particularly impressive species that tugs at our emotions like a white tiger or pandas. It's just a boring little guppy like the kind you can buy at Petsmart.
>>522017342Caring about animals is white coded. It is difficult for nonwhites to comprehend. No need to explain.
>>522018081you do not understandstudying rare data, like those fish, allows humans to extract rare information that leads to new medicines, and mechanical methods, and other thingsrare things are conserved because they may have rare dataits like asking why conserve a tropical rain forest full of ultra rare plants and animalsits because humans use data, and those resources, from those things, to advanceand rare animals means rare data sometimesits just such a simple concept, are you an idiot?
>>522017487Killifish are actually extremely interesting and are being used in aging, nephrology and kidney research. They have unique genetics from being extremophiles that mature extremely quickly. The pup fish isn't being used in anything right now as far as i am aware but their close relative is being used in kidney regeneration and dementia research
>>522017878Humans are self righteous creatures that try to play God to save all other creatures even those destined to disappear. This animal is an evolutionary dead end yet our hubris commands us to keep it alive as long as possible.
>>522017487it's just a way for more government control under the guise of environmentalism.
>cities and big industry destroys habitats and makes species become endangered or extinct>government makes laws too late after the fact>fisherman catches a rare fish>OMG IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT GOY, YOU CAUSED THE COLLAPSE!!!!
>>522017152kek, totoaba is almost extinct, as is teporingo, jaguars are like 1% of their old population, deers can barely be found anymore, porpoises (vaquita marina) were almost exterminated, royal eagle is old gone since like the 1920's, toucans are barely found anymore, monkey island was depopulated though you can still find howler monkeysand the list goes on and on and on
>>522017152>3 men who were randomly shooting guns in the area decided to get drunk nearby Devil’s Hole before one of them jumped in the water, and another one vomited on the fish. The left shotgun shells and empty beer cans near the water too.this is peak american behaviour, i thought you were all proud of this kind of thing?
>>522018081Do you not know that we find breakthroughs through rare animals like that?
Biologists here blame cats for everything. Biologists are big piles of shit. Indigenous who are expelled from the US ride their trucks into shores (rivers, sea, lakes, ponds...) and pollute everything with noise, gasoline, and led lights.
>>522017487learning about survival of the fittest and evolution, about isolated evolution, genetic drift in isolated populations, thermoregulation in extreme climates, alimentation of fish in closed ecosystems, preservation of genetic diversityso those fish are infinitely more scientifically interesting than you (we already know how mongoloidism works)plus, what, not like a 3 million dollar a year fish is going to make a dent to your three trillion dollar a year military grift, and the billions in yucraine and blowing up some shit nobody fishermen in venezuela>tldr, don't worry about it
>>522017878>Franklinia alatamaha is effectively extinct in the wild>doesn't provide edible fruit or lumber, mostly ornamental, supposedly a pain in the ass to grow>people cultivated it anyway, basically saving it from extinctionThe same basic premise (the Franklinia was a glacial relict, but you get the picture).If people stopped being legalese pilpul worshiping niggers and actually tried to keep the species alive by propagation in artificially recreated environments, it might have more meaning. >still has no net benefitNeither do goldfish or other fish kept in aquariums, yet people do it anyway. It might not be the noble divine purpose of this fish, or a pragmatic benefit, but it would save it from being a distant memory without wasting millions or billions of dollars to keep it as a relict.
>>522020974this guy gets it>74check'd, btw
>>522017347kek, ohio man is not being preservedreminds me of the shitshow that burning man does to the desert every year
Chink Jewish Maya Train is hell. Biologists in Mayan territory were whining to get federal funds to kill cats while iron pillars from the railroad's mainstays destroyed sinkholes, thus, polluting all the fresh water of the Yucatan Peninsula.
>>522019039That area used to be a giant lake and the hole is all that's left of it.
>>522020309kill all variety, it doesn't matterour corn already works, so it doesn't matter if the pool of genetic variation in landraces dissapearsit'll be FOINE, just like it was with the potato blight, the ash weevil and the old bananait's FOINE, who even needs bananas, I personally don't like them, so they're totes useless
>>522017152>there are 263 of them. They grow to be less than 1 inch and are only found in one pond in Death Valley. They live in 93° F water, and can only spawn/breed in a rock shelf situated in the bottom of Devil’s holeIm sorry, thy absolutelly desrve to go extinctIts not even clear to me what "damage" they did.
>>522021423kek, nobody gave a flying fuck about the lacandon jungle till the scary chink/russkoid train camenobody gave a fuck about cenotes being used as sewage dumps till the chink/russ train camenobody gave a flying fuck about the indigenous communities till the chink/russ train camenobody gave a fuck about not having a public railroad network till the chink/russ train cameand nobody gives a flying fuck about any of it stillthey just needed to stop the danger train since it could be used to "illegally" bypass the panama canal griftlike the russian "shadow fleet" just means it's not paying grifting tax to london insurance kikesjust like it's illegal to trade in your own currency for petroleoumjust like it's illegal to bypass swiftjust like it's becoming increasingly illegal to have encrypted communications
>>522020595They sure do love to deflect lol.Ignore all the big Gay-I datacentahs we're putting up, the mawnocultah crawps with pesticides and rawtting infrastructah, this goy ate a hambuhgah! He drove in a cawah! He left the lights awn! He's gunna destroy the entiah planet! It's gunna be anothah shoah!!!!!
>>522017152Oh no, not the inbred fish in a pond destined to die very soonIt's not like we have more important problems.>But muh useless discoveriesGo back to plebbit
>>522019775these ones probably nothing in the grand scheme. they live in an isolated hole so if they die out nothing really changes for everything else.it's nice not to just kill shit off due to ignorance though. I don't think the hunters are to blame unless it's obvious that this devils hole is not a good place to get drunk
>>522017152Sounds like a failed species.Survival of the fittest
>>522017487oy vey how can I convert this thing into shekels!?
>>522017342i'm usually not in the EVERY BARELY GENETICALLY DISTINCT SUBSPECIES IS VITALLY CRITICAL TO OUR ECOSYSTEM train but the devil's hole pupfish is actually pretty unique as a model organism/environment and worth investment to protect and study. I value the entire population of the devil's hole pupfish at ~500 americans, or 750 million Indians.
>>522017342Because they are important and nice
>>522017393We should do all we can to preserve white people and white culture then, from the 90% brown stain world.Kill yourself jew, we are coming for you.
>>522017487Stupid question. You never know what's going to turn out to have valuable pharmaceutical applications. The Pacific yew tree was nearly wiped out after it was discovered to have chemotherapy applications, and there wasn't any other way to produce the drug for a couple of decades. Look up "tamoxifen" if you don't already know that.
>>522020221>studying rare datathe fish don't need to be alive to do any of that.so, catch a few, put them on ice, and let nature take its course.
>>522017487You wouldn't get it
>>522017487Hey anon I want you to listen to this because it's important that you understand. You are trash worth less than one of those fish. The fish are neutral to the world at worst. You are a detriment to the world and everything good inside it. You aren't great enough to be evil either so don't get cocky. Evil requires a quality more than base ignorant incompetence. You are bad. That is all. You are a bad thing and that's all you are ever going to be. You may carry on now.
>>522017487dude's jelly that he's less significant than a holefish
>>522018970You should probably read a history book.
>>522024713>You are a detriment to the world and everything good inside it. You aren't great enough to be evil either so don't get cocky. Evil requires a quality more than base ignorant incompetence. You are bad. That is all. You are a bad thing and that's all you are ever going to be.i knew this already but thanks
>>522020309Playing God? No! We were put here as stewards of the earth. Not doing a great job, but some try.
>>522021687Id kill to try a varietal aside from hass avocados
>>522017487You're brown
>>522025888they're still kind of difficult to get here, though they've become more common since the narcos control all hass production, mainly in michoacanalso, beautiful numbers
>>522017487Species are mutation banks in a way, meaning they each store unique configurations of DNA and molecules that can’t be found anywhere else. Sometimes these compounds and genes can be used for breakthroughs in medicine or material science. Not only that but our understanding of these things is quite primitive and it’s clear in the future we will be able to properly make use of all this encrypted knowledge. But even if they weren’t not caring about wildlife is the mark of the boomer.
>>522017152Get some breading pairs in the hands of hobbyists and watch them explode.
>>522017487>because i want to know what the net benefit to our society and nation isDisrupt ecosystems at your own peril, 'tard
Aside from the faggot leftists and their bullshit, browns can't comprehend as to why white people love nature and would like to keep a rare species for future generations to enjoy. Preserving DNA and even trying to revive extinct species. White people things.
>>522017152This genuinely makes me angrier than if I heard that all 2 billion Indian Hindu shitskin rape rats were extinguished by an asteroid hitting India. Death penalty for these faggots, and get those fish into a lab for forced breeding asap!
>>522026710ok
>>522026222Yeah i figured that was the reason and for leafs we have alot of export restrictions so it's p much impossible to get them imported outside of seeds
>>522017152>The left shotgun shells and empty beer cans near the water too.Execute them.
>>522026731e pluribus unumout of many, one
>>522017152>so the puke and beer made them have more populationokay?
Devil's hole also connects to a massive underground water system that nobody has managed to plumb the depths of.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devils_HoleI wonder what else could be down there?
>>522017863>Wouldn’t work, since they’re in facilities too, unless you’re really into Taliban tier turbo terror, which I do not recommendThen why all the theatrics over some drunks going swimming in the hole, just make it an aquarium fish, and it will be an Invasive species everywhere in the world.
>>522017152>>522017185I really don't give a fuck about any endangered species, especially a fucking fish, but more than anything, I hate people like this.Stupid idiots whose only idea of "fun" is to get drunk and cause a ruckus and cause mayhem and leave behind a giant nasty mess for somebody else to clean. White trash like them are the reason niggers get away with their trash. No matter how evil and stupid and criminal niggers are, you can always find a few whites who are just as bad if not worse, and that allows race traitors to say, "look, see, race has nothing to do with anything, there are white niggers too!"
>>522017342This. They should have dropped into the global pet trade decades ago and become an invasive species in other inhospitable pits worldwide. The best way to save rare animals is to mass produce them and test the limits of their adaptability. Ship them off to museums and zoos, give them away like goldfish at carnivals, sell them at tourist traps, make them a team mascot and donate a fuckoff massive tank for them to populate, tell Asians they’re a good luck novelty, sell them at bait shops, dump them in underwater rivers and hot springs, drop them in Florida swamps to duke it out with all the other invasive exotic fish. Enough with having a dead end desert shrine be their salvation.
>>522017152There should be a permission process where those spiritually white with light that don't graffiti the rocks or eat the fish or get married before they have sex are, as part of grants given for fringe science allowed to go on a super submarine deep end deep black ops ninja mission. Involving consensual running of a filler feed through a modern security camera, picking a modern padlock on the steel enclosure covering the hole and rappelling down Devil's Hole B- the one without any endangered humpfish?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2QGTKKws3gMWith scuba and tank but a little extra less swimsuit coverage if you get my drift, namely No matching black string bikini bottom on the girl, to commence the Bonechildening in the Brown's Room (2026)And rappel out the danger zone and put the lock back on as a team of two and fix the camera and that's all. In the spirit of fuckin' at least 200 more times in the next 30 days. It would be interesting to know what this child who, in this moment of sperm-and-egg union to moments before cell division 1 might be like, probably radiation hardy or Geo in vision.>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jo8QLyc0ueY
