@DaddyEnry @EnglishBelle3 @ThePosieParker That's stupid. Of course dogs can die in this weather. This is well-documented.

@noahgittell I love my meaningless life! It's exactly why I don't want kids 😅

[Steffi @SteffiGiraffe]

@RoseAndGarden @sino_towazu @juliet_turner6 @GBarataria You are right. It is a trade-off. Leg ringing and other tagging methods aren't risk-free. The risk is considered to be small compared to the amount of information that can be gathered to inform conservation efforts.

@arimassoudi @juliet_turner6 @Herr_Razor @RoseAndGarden @GBarataria I'm a biologist and this has really annoyed me. People should not be made to feel stupid to ask questions.

[Steffi @SteffiGiraffe]

@JayAlver @Herr_Razor @juliet_turner6 @RoseAndGarden @GBarataria This isn't true. Negative effects are not common but do exist.

[Steffi @SteffiGiraffe]

@Clt_TrafficGuy @CarlBovisNature Nope 😅

[Steffi @SteffiGiraffe]

@SlamFireOpera @VeganSupremeTM That's exactly the point of the OP, no?

[Steffi @SteffiGiraffe]

@JustinTemplerSr @VeganSupremeTM What are vegans supposed to do? Stop eating and die, or give up and kill more animals?

[Steffi @SteffiGiraffe]

@OctaviusGilmour @VeganSupremeTM That's an unusual kink

[Steffi @SteffiGiraffe]

@CarlBovisNature I heard one making this noise once. Was shocked to find out it was a hedgehog and not something much bigger! But there was only one there.

@scxrdvx @Nexiraluv I was just thinking about this today. The only reason I knew I wasn't skinny anymore is because people started making comments 🙁

[Steffi @SteffiGiraffe]

@sappholives83 It would be weird if a member of the public intervened while the owner of the zoo did nothing though.

@sylwie_sch @BBCNews Please try reading. It really helps.

[Steffi @SteffiGiraffe]

@Melting_Lolly @imabearhunter @BBCNews Unfortunately it's a lot more people now who also didn't read even the opening paragraph of the article.

[Steffi @SteffiGiraffe]

@imabearhunter @BBCNews You're the propaganda. And very dumb. At least read the article.

[Steffi @SteffiGiraffe]

@Autistic_Lauren My ex once told me it was weird that I'd called his name because I never used it. And I remember finding it weird to use it. But I use my partner's and other people's names all the time now!

I seem to struggle with saying my own name though, weirdly.

@tardwife4life @bookbird71 Do you?

[Steffi @SteffiGiraffe]

@bookbird71 @tardwife4life You are right

[Steffi @SteffiGiraffe]

@south_23rd @MadelaineLucyH It turns them into en dashes

[Steffi @SteffiGiraffe]

@MadelaineLucyH I don't understand people who use em dashes. How do you even make one? I'd previously thought I'd been using them but found out they were actually en dashes and the things I thought were en dashes were just hyphens.
