I love how everyone thinks because monkeys are intelligent and cute they're
somehow harmless, innocent creatures. chimps are the only species of
animals outside of humans that kill simply for sport and male dolphins will kill
the children of female dolphins simply to mate with the female, since they will
not mate if they have a current child.
yes the hunting of sharks, monkeys, tigers, dolphins, etc for food is pretty
pointless since it is only eaten for "status symbol" reasons. shark fin soup is
actually known to be very tasteless and excessive consumption can cause
medical complications due to high mercury content, but the Japanese elite
continue to eat this simply because it is an "exotic dish"
