There are so many dying in the name of profit,I wanted to honor some of them...
Now..the Frogs are leaving us,all the golden eyed beauties,and amphibious flowers of brilliant hues will go away.
No more choruses to give a soundtrack to the springtime twilight..
No more sudden plunk to startle as a bullfrog dives out of sight when I walk by the ponds'edge..
The Tigers So magnificent ,beautiful masterpieces each,terrestrial sacred feline fading so fast, A shadow haunted dream they will become legends passed from grandparent to child whispered behind the work camp fence,handed down myths of beasts barely imagined like dinosaurs and gods of the past from when the World was wild..
Tiger,Losing you..It's like losing my soul,To see you vanish,the pain so bad, I long to go with you..
The polar bear great master of the ice,white furred ,wonder The mighty snow bear falls off of the ice and out of this place..
Black footed Ferret of Adorable face,Killed by poison by our selfish race.
Red wolf of mighty noble hunter pack ,flaming of fur,hunted down by greedy ranchers and shot like a common cur..
Peter Gabriel - Animal Nation Lyrics
I didn't meet you in the jungle
Swinging from a tree
I sat down at the piano
You were playing with me
I couldn't believe all the things you could do
The apes I've seen were in the zoo
They say we are unique with this language that we speak But you have proved them wrong
Skinner and Chomsky, how could they be so blind
With evidence this strong?
Intelligent life is all around us
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/2983045.stmWhen you watch King Kong or The Planet of the Apes Upon your video screen
When the animals die, tears fill your eye
And you question what you've seen
Intelligent life is all around us
Hey, bonobo woman
Hey, bonobo man
Look in your eyes
That's where I come from
Hey, bonobo woman
Hey, bonobo man
Talk to me now
I am listening
You can search the internet
You can use your video phone
To call another friend
If we gave you all the tools
You can do whatever you want
Who knows when this will end
Intelligent life is all around us
Hey, bonobo woman
Hey, bonobo man
Look in your eyes
That's where I come from
Hey, bonobo woman
Hey, bonobo man
Talk to me now
I am listening
Hey, bonobo woman
Hey, bonobo man
Look in your eyes
That's where we come from
Hey, bonobo woman
Hey, bonobo man
Talk to us now
We are listening
Bonobo calling me now
Starting to hear the things you've said
Getting to know what's going on in your head
There's no humans on the line
But there'll be plenty more there in good time
Dolphins, cats, and elephants
This is not some wild romance
Just look in their eyes and say it's not true
Look in their eyes, they're checking out you
Communication with the Animal Nation
We are in communication with the Animal Nation
************************************************
There are 1,072 endangered and threatened species in the world. The list includes:
342 species of mammals, such as the red wolf, the right whale and the mountain gorilla.
273 species of birds, such as the California condor, the whooping crane and the northern spotted owl.
126 species of fish, such as coho salmon
115 species of reptiles, such as the green sea turtle
Most species that are actually endangered aren't on the list. Scientists estimate that 100 species go extinct every day! That's about one species every 15 minutes.
It's such a massive Animal Genocide,it's Ecocide.
Which of our animal brothers or sisters will be gone forever in the next 15? They will NEVER come back..
The Lorax.A banned book...Comes to mind..
Spurred by greed, the Once-ler invited all his relatives to town where they started a huge Thneed-making business, chopping down Truffula Trees left and right, much to the Lorax's distress. The skies gradually got darker and more polluted, forcing the Lorax to send the Bar-ba-loots, the swans, and the fish off in search of a better place to live. The Once-ler, while upset to see the animals go, dismissed the Lorax's pleadings until the final Truffula Tree got chopped down, leaving the Once-ler and the Lorax with a failed business in a desolate place under a dark smoggy sky. With a "sad backward glance," the Lorax picked himself up by the "seat of the pants" and floated away through a hole in the smog. At the end of the story, the Once-ler reveals that he has one last Truffula seed, and he instructs the boy to start a new forest so that "the Lorax and all of his friends may come back."
Oh,How I wish The Lorax's promise was kept by humanity! But we failed, we have no more seeds to make the animals lost come back because the world has been bought,and sold..too long we have gone along,as the animal nations die..
soon it will be our turn.
