Eco-warrior wins $50k to use owls in rodent farming fight
Biological rodent control initiative Owls Eat Rats was crowned this year’s winner of The Hatch: Taronga Accelerator Program, taking home a massive $50,000 cash prize.
Unfortunately the AMP (Accelerated Mobile Pages) on this article is unavoidable.
Dead rats is not uplifting news but rats not dying slow deaths by poison is uplifting news, but owls being enslaved to fix human problems is not uplifting but developing a new natural solution to fix an old natural problem is uplifting news. Sos moral error 404 help!
Where are you seeing owls being enslaved in the article? It says the initiative builds and expands habitats for owls.
And even if they were being enslaved, that's better than minefields of (artificial) poison in our (natural) environment. Even if you're a vegan, there's enslaved hordes of plants behind your survival. It's always what's better.
To be honest I only read the title, bumped into a paywall when i clicked the link and couldn't be bothered to put more effort in it.
I do agree on this.
But not on this, although i am not gonna argue why slave animals is a thing and slave plants is not a thing.
You're right, it's finding the balance - that was the topic of my comment basically.
