A limited knowledge of animals and a well timed photo can send the wrong message, and this person is here to explain why it's probably not as sad as it looks. For more people enlightening other people on how animals actually work, here's a thread on farm animals that takes a dark turn.

There's no doubt that cities and people have changed the way animals interact with their environment. With a lot of cities urging people to stay inside, things are changing again. For some animals, the lack of people walking around is more reason than ever to start exploring. For other animals that depend on tourists to feed them, the lack of tourists has them looking elsewhere for food. Things can change fast, it's like some junk out of I Am Legend. Different people have dealt with various quarantines differently, like tweeting funny quarantine journal updates or getting revenge on toilet paper hoarding Karens.
Animals get up to some pretty interesting shenanigans when they think no one is watching. There's raccoons climbing on top of wild pigs, flying squirrels on dive bombing runs, and deer just freakin' out. These animals behavior may be weird, but their demeanor is nothing compared to the many nopes of Australia. For more animal shenanigans, here are some stories fromfarmers whose animals made them think "how'd they do that?"

Who knew people were so passionate about which corner you put the sun in as a kid, but we're intrigued. We're fans of clapbacks that blast peoples souls from their bodies, so here are some more from people who savagely responded to just about everything that crossed their paths.
She's alright, and already out of the hospital. Apparently the group had been standing within 10 feet of the animal for about 20 minutes, which is advised against. This mostly serves as a reminder to not get really close to bison. They are huge and will mess you up. Here's another guy who challenged a bison at Yellowstone if you need more evidence to not mess with bison. Twitter responded with a lot of comments about how it's weird her parents just ran out of the way leaving her to get tossed.

There's not much more to it. This deer expressed its disapproval with this guy's advances by letting one rip.

So we take it that this is like a regular problem for Australians? At least it seems like a koala sneaking into your car is better than big-ass spiders, which also happens. We like it when this little guy tries to figure out what a window is.

"We at Shell want everyone to feel as "pumped" as we do about freeing much-needed Arctic resources. After all, the Arctic is the common heritage of all humanity, and what we do there matters to everyone. That's why Shell is inviting you to create your very own Let's Go! ad for our Arctic campaign. We'll feature it on our website, and you can show all your Facebook friends how pumped you are to seize the day's opportunities too.

Now you can show all your Facebook friends how pumped you are to ruin the environment seize the day's opportunities too!
UPDATE: Sadly, it's a fake website. Too bad too! It was such a promising trolling opportunity. Oh well. However, the fact that Shell is beginning to drill in the Arctic is still very real. So much so that Greenpeace decided to deploy two submarines to keep tabs on Shell's drilling operations just to make sure they don't try to pull a fast one on us.
