I never said wolves weren't as important. I'm just saying that an animal that isn't endangered doesn't require as much attention as an endangered one, hun. C;
I realize that several species of wolves are, in fact, scarce, but most people seem to be focusing on the gray wolf-- which, for the record, is recorded as of least concern. Take a look at the official IUCN Red List of Threatened Species and notice that only several species of wolves are listed on it. I do care about them. I just think people need to pay attention to other things too once in a while.
And by "biased and cruel", do you mean, "not a rabid wolfaboo"?

Does it really matter what animal we support to save? Does it really make me a terrible person for not focusing on saving wolves or a rare butterfly? I love animals, I really do, but, yes, I am partial to certain ones. I love tigers; I want to be able to take my grandkids to a zoo and show them a tiger, knowing there were more out in the wild as well. Does that make me a horrible person?
It's arguments like this that keep people from saving anything, really. Geeky, it's good that you want to focus on other animals, but must you force this on everyone? Some people like wolves, so what? You never know what may happen in the future, so saying an animal may never be endangered is just a bit ignorant. Yes, I do believe that we need to focus on the extremely endangered animals and insects, but attacking wolf lovers isn't exactly helping.
Kuro, I see your point, but, perhaps try stating your opinion a bit less like an attack. It felt like you were attacking anyone that didn't agree with you, which also doesn't help your cause. Also, it doesn't matter if it's a breed or species, if it's down to 8, then we need to help it.
Plus, like Amberleaf said, this is a kids site. They only know about wolves, not about extremely endangered animals. But, one day, they may be the people saving the butterfies or the great tortoises. And it's just because they felt they made a difference to one type of animal when they were a kid.
So, for the sake of agreeing, why don't we all agree to save all animals, no matter what they are, and no matter our reasons? Because if we all focus on one, another could slip through the cracks, and we not realize it until it's too late.

And it's just the same texts that he sent me when we dated, but without the "babe" on the end of it.
I quit going to the club for a reason. I don't want to see you.

Okay this is random (and I'm sure some people will disagree), but I personally dislike the whole "t-shirt with leggings" thing. I think it looks awful!
And my roommate is wearing that today. I mean, she has a good figure for it, but I still don't like it in general.
But I know that this is only my opinion.
Still bugs me.

Also, putting haunted house shows on the animal channel REALLY irks me. The connection to being animal-related is so silly - OMG did the dog sniff the door to the empty room once?! It's SOOOO haunted!!
WHO CARES.
Get it off my animal channel; it only shows a pet for a a brief moment and then goes on and on about the haunted house - in my opinion, that isn't enough to be on the ANIMAL channel.
Bah.
lol about the ex texting - I have the opposite problem at the moment. My boyfriend ISN'T texting me, when he usually DOES..
Yes I understand maybe you're busy, but I'd like you to TELL me, not just ignore my texts for a while. It's not like I'm being clingy and texting all the time or anything; I'm always careful to not be that kind of person.
