Wow. Wow. Wow. I happened to see one, today, with what was, unmistakably, what was left of a butterfly in its mouth. I was taken aback. Had never occurred to me that dragonflies would, could, eat butterflies. I tried to take a picture, but it was too fast. Obviously very protective of its catch.

I had to look it up. BINGO. Wow. I was shocked. Had no idea.

Yes, I understand that it is all part of nature. But, but, but …

I used to think they were so pretty and cute. Not sure I can think of them like that anymore. I kind of like my butterflies. Nature is CRUEL.

Cruelty To Indian Elephants Is Abhorrent. I Have NO Sympathy For Abusers. Elephants SHOULD Retaliate.

I am dead against any cruelty to any animals (bar snakes, who I do not consider to be animals).

Cruelty to Indian elephants is the MOST horrendous of crimes. Indian elephants are among the MOST intelligent, loving & loyal of animals. They exceed dogs. An old elephant such as this one, in her 50s (yes, in her 50s), would be beyond tame. Tamer than a dog. Hey, I know BOTH my dogs & Indian elephants.

I have no sympathy, whatsoever, for the cruel, inhumane idiots. DON’T HURT AN OLD LADY ELEPHANT. Not cricket.

Don’t give me the human life is worth more than …

Don’t mess with fire unless you are willing to face the consequences.

It appears the Indian government is looking into this — with RARE urgency.

Very relieved to see that they did NOT kill the poor elephants. But, money is GOD to Indians … and an elephant, tame or not, is worth more than a human. They know that. Trust me. SMILE.
