Some of you guys really need to get a grip on reality.

I don't search this stuff out but I thought that it was interesting that humans would put so much effort to protect a species like those tortoises. The tortoises are effectively useless to us yet those people are spending money and using specialized skills to protect them from an invasive species.

Is it pleasant? Not really. It is necessary? Absolutely if the species is expected to survive.

Some of the tortoises on the ridge of the opening scene were likely alive in the 1800s and now they are being protected by modern technology like helicopters, radio ID tags, and semi-auto rifles.

The real world isn't always friendly. It's a shame more of us don't live in it.
