Maybe I'm just a granola freak liberal, but why can't we leave these animals alone?

I couldn't agree more, ik70. I hope that aliens do show up here, and treat humanity the very same way we treat our Mother. Whether it's in the name of Science, or Religion, or a good life for our Babies, all we do is fuck this planet up.

Not to worry. When it says "captured on film," that just means they took a picture of it, not taken it into captivity.

That would be the very next step. Guaranteed. Not to mention, they are disrupting the natural habitat of the whales they are following. But that's okay, because the giant squid may hold the key to preventing cancer, or some other bogus, flawed reasoning on the part of the scientific community.

If they are going to keep pulling our ships under like the Titanic and the Andrea Doria then they need to be stopped. I'm all for letting the giant Kong gorillas go wander free, but they better not try overturning any passanger trains.

Ripped a tentacle off though, didn't they? I believe the article also mentions the animal struggling for four hours while they photographed it.

Please tell me this is meant to be humor. I'm not offended by humor. Otherwise- do you really think the Titanic was sunk by a giant squid?

If we went around being gentle and respectful towards nature, we'd all still be living in caves. Progress is inherently violent and destructive.

So far so good as far as I'm concerned, and I can't wait for my first giant squid appetizer plate to go with my bald eagle omelette 🙂

You're right. I hadn't seen that. Pass a bowl of that granola over here because I'm in complete agreement with you. Not cool at all.
