Why are soooooooo awesome and so many humans so cruel?

I don’t understand why they have to grab the baby like that instead of luring it with milk or something. Imagine if some creatures from another planet just snatched you up like that. Of coarse you’d be panicking! Maybe the handler’s have a good reason for doing it this way, but I wish I knew what it was.

@101raptorkill101 You probably care more about that elephant than you do about the hundreds of starving children in the world. You should hate yourself, asshole.

While it’s endearing to say the little baby accepted humans once he figured out they meant him no harm, it’s likely not the case. He’s too young to have such a thought. What he knew he must do, however, was following a mother-figure, to see if he could get milk, since his mother didn’t get up for at least a day, & he didn’t know why. He’s starving, but he couldn’t eat leaves, being so young, so he quickly imprinted on anyone who’s close to him & who didn’t immediately hurt him.
