The Latest Of God’s Creatures Telling You To Back Off
I’m telling you; it’s getting scarier and scarier out there. People are scary. Travel (by car, boat, or plane) is scary. And animals are scary. Wait, let me clarify that. Animals are not scary until our actions force them to be. In the last two weeks, stories have crossed by news feeds about bison gorengs, alligator attacks, shark attacks, and now…yes, we’ve p***ed the sea lions off. Look at that sweet face at the top of this blog? Does this look like the kind of savage beast that WANTS a piece of you?!
Kids, we’ve said this many times on the air, but apparently, we cannot repeat it enough: real life is not a Disney movie. Animals do not speak our language and their interest and priorities are not in lockstep with ours. The animals are perfectly willing to let you live your life as long as you don’t encroach on theirs. And by encroaching, I mean, “THEY DON’T WANT TO TAKE SELFIES WITH YOU.” Sea lions…the sea lions hate us now. <g>
