It really does seem like a pattern. I always see people take things way too far when they bandwagon onto invasive species sensationalizing.

For one, people always jump to extermination, but full eradication just isn't feasible in most any case. Unless you can come up with a way to, with 100% efficiency and without harming native species, eradicate an entire species thriving in an environment where it's outcompeting native species, it just isn't going to happen. Particularly when people's suggestions for this involve adding a DIFFERENT invasive species in some kind of "old woman who swallowed a fly" scenario.

When it's not that, it's usually "encourage the public to kill them!" as if the general public has any skill whatsoever in distinguishing two different species of anything. Or are audited and regulated by animal cruelty laws.

Invasive species aren't malicious. They're just animals doing what animals do. They don't deserve cruelty. Finding a HUMANE way to deal with invasive species adds a new level of difficulty to the situation.

The sensationalization of the invasive hammerhead worms is stupid for a number of reasons but especially because of people being like “AHHH WE HAVE TO DESTROY THEM WE HAVE TO KEEP THEM FROM SPREADING NORTH” because I remember finding them under rocks in my backyard well over a decade ago. They’ve been in the north since forever and everyone just started noticing them like last year. Too many people are just absolutely oblivious to what’s living right outside their houses and it shows

#animal death #invasive species #negative #i've been watching antscanada's rainforest vivarium experiment series for a while now #and it addresses a lot of good points about the invasive species that have been unintentionally introduced to the vivarium #and the ethics of intervening in the experiment

Nightjars and swifts is both bugs

if i may, what birds are bugs to you? hummingbirds seem pretty bug, but are there any others you were thinking of?

Mainly hummingbirds. They are definitely bugs, possibly the best attempt a vertebrate has ever made at evolving into an insect and I respect them for that.

I feel like some smaller songbirds can also be bugs because they are Small and Compact but Loud.
