An orangutan has been observed for the first time using a medicinal herb on a wound.

Should we preserve certain areas of the world for these sentient creatures to live in?
Or should we treat orangutans like Palestinians - shove them off their land and bulldoze their property to make room for more of 'us', saying, 'We are stronger, so tough luck'?
Note: Orangutans are somewhat smelly.
@spruce112358 saidThe world is big enough for people, orangutans and Palestinians. Its not big enough if the orangutans decide to rape, murder and kidnap people. They are going to be extinct pretty soon, and yes .. they have less rights than people.

@rajk999 saidSeriously? Did you just say that Palestinians have less rights than people?

@shavixmir saidI know, right? The correct word is fewer!

@Sleepyguy
On another note, what is HRO going to do with the exit of MFJ? Their book will be about ten pages smaller. Also who will take up the slack?
@shavixmir saidthe world is not big enough for rapist and murderers …what their race, culture or nationality is is irrelevant.
You are correct.
it’s clear that you support these type people…you are nothing more than trash and deserve the same fate as the ones you support
@spruce112358 saidIt is an astonishing thing, that an orang utan understands medicinal properties of a plant. Makes one wonder what else animals know that we don’t give them credit for.

When I first saw this story, like most people I thought: "It's not possible, who could the 'clients' be?"
Then I saw shatmixers name.

Edit: Believe it or not, shatmixers name is mentioned directly in this documentary.
@moonbus saidI have an admittedly extreme position on our environment: 50% of all ecosystems in the world should be left wild.

I don't know what the current percentage of wild land is: 25%? 10%? I do feel that 4-6 billion humans is more than enough for the planet. Above that just leads to crowding and wars. Reduced breeding is already happening naturally in developed countries - it is like we "know" this biologically somehow.
I think we are ready as a species to bring ourselves under conscious control. The natural world can't control us anymore. We have to do it.
I hope that we do it before there is nothing left but a seething mass of humanity - which would frankly be boring and probably very unhealthy both mentally and physically.

I too saw that article and very nearly linked it at the science forum. It is astonishing that a wild animal has some understanding of medicinal herbs. It’s almost enough to make me believe in reincarnation. Maybe that ape was Pythagoras in a former life, what do you think? Maybe this belongs in the spirituality forum.
@moonbus saidI heard he's been hired by Pfizer to develop their next vaccine. Should be an improvement.

@mott-the-hoople saidSo no room for the Israelis who have murdered 13,000 innocent children then 🙄
