The everyday world that man has created is fraught with danger for the animals in the wild. Every way they seem to turn there lies a potential trap whether intended or unintended. Man's deadly influence has even filled the great oceans with plastic and toxic waste from which there is no escape for the creatures of the sea and the sky. Fish and sea birds have been found with bellies full of plastic caps/bags. Every year cars take the lives of millions of innocent animals just trying to cross our manmade roads. Even our fences that we have put up to define our territories are a potential hazard as you will see in the video below.Then there are the intended dangers that man uses to the detriment of wildlife. Snares and steeljaw traps are some of the worst weapons used againt innocent animals such as coyotes, wolves, mountain lions,bears, etc. Animals caught in these traps lie in agonizing pain for days until finally dying. Some have even been known to chew off their own foot just to be free of the pain and confinement. Trappers are not required in many states to check their traps for days so there is no relief for the trapped animal.We must make a conscientious effort to eliminate these dangers that are in our power to do so. Limiting the use of plastic and carefully recycling that which we do use is extremely important. Watching for crossing wildlife on our roads is a must. Many times these animals that are killed have babies back at home who will also die without their parental care. As for traps, there is absolutely no valid reason to be using these devices of torture. Efforts must be taken to eliminate the use of them around the world. We must think beyond our own little immediate world for we share this world with many other creatures. It is high time that we live up to that responsibility of ours.The video below is a very touching scene of a man who comes to the rescue of a wolf trapped in a wire fence. At his own risk, the man carefully tries to set the wolf free. Although not all of us would be able to attempt this, this is the spirit of concern that we all must share towards our fellow brethern of the wild.
