Seriously? A Mountain Lion in San Francisco?!
Lets just pause for a moment and collectively scratch our heads, shall we? A mountain lion. In San Francisco. Apparently, it wandered out of its natural habitat – you know, where mountains are actually mountainous – and decided to take a leisurely stroll through a residential neighborhood. Because that makes perfect sense. Wild animals just love disrupting urban life!
And the response? Oh, lets spend taxpayer dollars to tranquilize this majestic creature – a living symbol of wilderness – so we can gently relocate it back into…the wild. Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant strategy for maintaining ecosystem balance and preventing future mountain lion incursions. I’m sure this one incident will single-handedly solve the urban wildlife conflict problem.
I mean, honestly, is there any point in having concrete jungles if nature keeps trying to reclaim them? Maybe we should just pave everything over – that seems like a foolproof solution! Its not like these animals have adapted brilliantly for millennia and now find themselves encroaching on habitat destroyed by human expansion. No, no, it’s the mountain lion’s fault for daring to exist near a city built where it naturally should be.
I eagerly await the next wildlife disruption – I suspect a family of bears will be sunbathing in Golden Gate Park any day now.
