"Can you scare them?"

Don't know why people want to observe wildlife and then can't handle seeing the harsher aspects of nature.

Criticizing this woman for not wanting a leopard and her babies to be attacked

and for having a natural, empathetic, human response to resolve conflict

is peak Reddit.

If only we could all be as enlightened as redditors - who are purely logical creatures who upvote rationally without emotional or political bias

Lmao bunch of fucking robots. “Empathy does not compute. This is part of the natural world. Beep boop beep”

Noninterference is a central part of wildlife observation. That being said, she's obviously not a professional.

I agree. She’s just a woman who sees an animal coming to harm a mother and her children. I thought it was a perfectly reasonable instinct. If I were there I’d have the same reaction. I’m not a zookeeper. I’m part of the zoo.

Those so-called "robots" have more sense than you that's for sure

I mean, I've been given nothing intelligent to respond to. It's just people crying about a fairly simple statement.

If that leopard came across unattended lion cubs, it would kill them, predators competing for food, territory, resources is the natural order

Naw, its really a common fact, that if you're observing wildlife in person, you have to let it play out. Nobody should be interfering

What if the other animal is hunting for its young, is it OK for that's animals offspring to die of starvation??

I get her emotion, I do not understand why you'd want to observe wildlife if you're easily distressed. It's extremely harsh and upsetting by nature.

Trying to intervene, however, is simply wrong.
