Time to make jaguars vegan, mebbe?
Jaguar is 'cancelled' on the internet for preying on capybaras, and biologist says: 'they have lost track of life in nature'
In conversation with g1, biologist Gustavo Figueirôa explained that the scene is completely normal and shows life in nature the way it is.
After the release of a series , taken by biology student João Pedro Salgado, the feline was "cancelled" on Twitter for being "having lunch". The repercussion of netizens shocked several professionals linked to wildlife. Watch the video above that shows the series of photographs.
The publication, made by João Pedro Salgado on social media, divided opinions. On the one hand, some comments mocked the situation and compared the situation with homicides: "I'm going to start posting photos and videos of people being killed in assistants [accidents] and murdered...", see the post below.
Google didn't translate the tweet, but it was basically some liberal page comparing the jaguar eating the capybara to a man murdering another.
On the other hand, biologists defended the record made by João Pedro Salgado, saying that the photos faithfully show what nature is like. In a conversation with , biologist Gustavo Figueirôa explained that the jaguar is a strict carnivore, which means that the animal feeds only on meat.
Both Figueirôa and João Pedro Salgado believe that misinformation and a shallow understanding of nature generated the comments on social media.
In another post, a tweeter writes: "we have enough technology to produce vegetable protein and feed these animals, protecting the lives of thousands of endangered animals". See the post below.
On this post, another libtard organization says that humans should make some sort of protein food and use to feed the jaguars, so they leave the herbivores alone. Nope, not making it up.
João expected a repercussion with the sequence of photos, but not so much. The biology student made the registration the first time he came to the Pantanal. "I think this shows the detachment from nature that people are at the moment. Something worrying from my point of view, because one of the conservation mottos is 'knowing in order to preserve', how are we going to preserve something that people are demonstrating at least knowing? ", he asked.

João's concern, raised through the comments, is shared by Gustavo as well: "first is the warning that people need basic training. Today people on the internet have a lot of value judgment, people who do not understand the subject and criticize the subject", detailed the biologist.
Both believe that the great repercussion was also due to the preyed animal being a capybara. "We have more contact with the capybara, it is part of the daily lives of many people. The capybara is more 'cute'. The scene is strong and shows reality, but it is as if it were an alligator or another animal being eaten".
"This demonstrates a worrying behavior of vision of nature that some people have. Animals need to be animals, the scene is not cruel or anything like that. The scene is simply life in its purest state", concluded João Pedro Salgado.
