*[Enwl-eng] Media sources shouldn't call wildlife "psycho" or "scumbags"

[ENWL]

 

We must protect animals from damaging attempts to vilify them. This Media Outlet Demonized an Entire Population of Birds as "Psycho." This Could Hurt Real Animals! Sign Now        A prominent media outlet in the UK just demonized an entire animal population. On the cover of a recent publication, the Daily Star Magazine claimed seagulls are "psychos" and "feathered scumbags" that are only worthy of contempt and disdain. These words could do horrible damage if people choose to act based on them! Sign the petition to demand the Daily Mail retract its damning rhetoric!   Some readers will come away thinking that seagulls really are an enemy. They're not. They're just living beings trying to survive, showing creative resourcefulness in trying to fulfill their needs.   As one Twitter user aptly explains: "With disgusting headlines like this is it any wonder we have such widespread wildlife crime in this country"?   Surely the Daily Star can do better than villainizing wild animals.   Sign the petition to tell the Daily Star to retract this vicious article before animals feel the consequences for these words! Thank you, Miranda Care2 Petitions Team P.S. This hysterical article relies on a variety of wild hyperboles - but it could do real damage to living animals. Sign the petition.      Sign Now
