I know. I'm not saying everybody should give their paycheck to charity, people work hard for their money and so everyone has the right to spend it on whatever they want.
However, donating money to save animals that are about to go extinct when there's
people who are actually
dying all over the world isn't the most reasonable thing to do. But that's just me.

Well, I don't think humans and animals have the same value as living creatures. I'm not saying though it's our place to make decisions for all other beings on the planet. Animals should be left alone, they're not out there for us to toy with, but fuck, this is
people we're talking about, could have been any of us! And don't get me wrong, I'm not saying all of us humans are worthy of being classed as such, sure this world is filled with motherfucking dicks whose mothers would have made the right choice by getting an abortion; however, I'd save a child from dying of starvation before I'd save the last of the Amur Leopards.
