Save the lion?!!

[Fininho]

But then tell me: the lion is doomed in Africa, for sure.
Have you cried for that?
Or you think it is nice to have pity on the lion?
One way or another, time goes on, and MANY other species will also disappear.
It would be nice to have at least one dinosaur living somewhere for tourists to see, but fate had them gone forever.
I don't think anybody cried for them.

Why do you seem to have a fixation on crying?

[Fininho]

Is there anything wrong with crying, do you think?

[The Magic Pudding]

Within reason crying is OK, I think it's part of feeling, I don't envy insensitive people.
There is something wrong with apathy, I do think.

[Fininho]

Correct, Pudding.
But as far as the lion is concerned, apathy is the "sentiment" to apply, since most humans in these hard days have other priorities rather than to worry with the wild.
Besides, I don't see any use for that beast, I really don't.
[Like we don't see any use for mosquitoes in Alaska.]

No, I haven't.

No, I simply think we ought not seek out the extinction of species, especially when we have other ways of dealing with this apparently-pressing problem of lions taking over the Universe as we know it.

Protip:  Humans hadn't evolved yet.

I do not think there is anything wrong with crying in itself. Why have you repeatedly brought up crying?

A tad off topic but I wonder what you guys think of this, if dinosaurs were never wiped out, would the human race still thrive or even emerge from evolution?

Even a small change sixty million years ago would probably break the thread that led to humans.

I thought mammals were small until the dinosaurs were removed by god.
Only after they were removed mammals evolved to fill the vacated niches for large herbivores and carnivores.
But what do I know?

When the dinosaurs ruled the world, the mammals hid in the shadows, daring to grow no bigger than shrew-like insectivores that hunted at night. Or so we thought.

Two stunning new fossils from China have overturned this preconception. Not only did large mammals live alongside their giant reptilian cousins, but some were big and bold enough to go dinosaur hunting.

Named Repenomamus giganticus and Repenomamus robustus, the sturdily built mammals lived in China about 130 million years ago, around 65 million years before we thought their kind inherited the Earth. At 1 metre long, R. giganticus was big enough to hunt small dinosaurs, and a newly discovered fossil of its smaller cousin, R. robustus, died with its belly full of young dinosaur.

You clearly know nothing, this is what really happened.

What is happening there?
Are the elephants saying to the dinos "are no mate, this is the mammal ark, the dino ark is in the next valley".

There are also, clearly, invisible aliens with an invisible UFO getting ready to take the dinosaurs out to explore the galaxy. You can see a lot of invisible shit going on behind the scenes there...

Does invisible shit need to be behind the scenes, it's invisible.
If I was invisible I would be in the foreground.

Depends. Some invisible shit is see-through, and other aint.  

[Thumpalumpacus]

Actually, there is some invisible shit going on in the foreground, it's just invisible.  Having said that:
