A squirrel dying in front of your house may be more relevant to your interests right now than people dying in Africa.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
In Africa, we have the bush meat trade, which means that, on a very large scale, animals are being killed in the forests and sold in the cities as a luxury food.
How comedic are squirrels? We don't have squirrels in Australia. The first time I saw a squirrel was at a meeting at Disney.
I have always brought home stray animals - everything from squirrels to wild rabbits to foxes and turtles.
In South Africa, I feel I am a stranger, at best an animal.
You can't be friends with a squirrel! A squirrel is just a rat with a cuter outfit.
I like squirrels. They're so adventurous.
When I visit my brother in South Africa, I order things I've only seen in zoos. Little deers and kudu, all the mammals you would never think of eating.
In Kenya you've got the great birds and monkeys leaping through the trees overhead. It's a chance to remember what the world is really like.
When one's dead, one's dead... This squirrel will become earth all in his time. And still later on, there'll grow new trees from him, with new squirrels skipping about in them. Do you think that's so very sad?
The greenest home is the one you don't build. If you really want to save the Earth, move in with another family and share a house that's already built. Better yet, live in the forest and eat whatever the squirrels don't want.
