Those heart-warming wildlife stories flooding social media, the deer “asking for help” with her entangled fawn, the great horned owl befriending a kitten, the buck supposedly bringing his baby to humans to save it from wolves, feel magical. But they’re not real.

Wild animals (generally) don’t seek human help, form cross-species friendships, or understand us as rescuers. These videos and stories are staged, misinterpreted, or outright fabricated to go viral.

As comforting as it feels to believe wildlife finds safety in people, this belief can be dangerous. Interfering with wild animals, especially young ones, often causes harm: parents get separated from their offspring, animals become stressed or injured, and well-meaning humans put themselves at risk.

Wild animals are wild. The most respectful and helpful thing we can do is admire them from a distance, protect their habitats, and contact licensed wildlife professionals when there’s a real concern.

Nature doesn’t need a fairytale ending to be worth protecting. 🌿

KlohecatCards

Some folks may feel that this is not the year to be sending out “Merry” Christmas cards, so I’ve put together some alternate versions that may do the job…for the nervous, oblivious, and everywhere in between. BTW, Merry Christmas from #klohecat #banksythecat and #fearlessfreddycat ! #cats_of_instagram #catsofinstagram #historicmarkerville #christmascards2020
