The Bronx Zoo has just released Flaco's necropsy results.

He was not thriving, as the people championing the ideal of "freedom" claimed.

He was poisoned.

He was sick.

He was suffering.

"Freedom" would have eventually killed him. A building just happened to do it first.

"Postmortem testing has been completed for Flaco, the Eurasian eagle owl that was found down in the courtyard of a Manhattan building a little over a year after his enclosure at the Central Park Zoo was vandalized on February 2, 2023. Onlookers reported that Flaco had flown into a building on the Upper West Side of Manhattan on February 23, 2024, and acute trauma was found at necropsy. Bronx Zoo veterinary pathologists determined that in addition to the traumatic injuries, Flaco had two significant underlying conditions. He had a severe pigeon herpesvirus from eating feral pigeons that had become part of his diet, and exposure to four different anticoagulant rodenticides that are commonly used for rat control in New York City. These factors would have been debilitating and ultimately fatal, even without a traumatic injury, and may have predisposed him to flying into or falling from the building. The identified herpesvirus can be carried by healthy pigeons but may cause fatal disease in birds of prey including owls infected by eating pigeons. This virus has been previously found in New York City pigeons and owls. In Flaco’s case, the viral infection caused severe tissue damage and inflammation in many organs, including the spleen, liver, gastrointestinal tract, bone marrow, and brain.   No other contributing factors were identified through the extensive testing that was performed. Flaco’s severe illness and death are ultimately attributed to a combination of factors—infectious disease, toxin exposures, and traumatic injuries—that underscore the hazards faced by wild birds, especially in an urban setting."

The naturalistic fallacy kills animals in horrible ways. The romanticism of what humans want to think of as a "free, wild, pure life" cannot be allowed supplant the reality of injury, sickness, and death. Releasing captive animals (or keeping them from being recaptured) because it's "better" for them to suffer untethered than live a healthy, safe, captive life is inhumane and horrific.

Flaco's life didn't have to end in pain, sickness, and suffering.

Flaco's death didn't have to be tragic.

But once the idea of "freedom" entered the chat, Flaco's fate was unavoidable.

I'm a little late to the Nintendo direct- college has been consuming SOME of my time but I had time to whip this up! It's been like- what? Half a year since I drew Peppino (And Tomoko- though that's on my instagram... and notebooks-), decided to dedicate this to PT because I genuinely love it's 90s aesthetic! Congrats to Tourde pizza and Mcpig for having Pizza Tower on the switch!!!

I think it’s really telling that the people on twitter that claim to hate the qsmp and quackity to protect the admins are now hating on the egg figurines calling them ugly. To the point that even the ex admins are coming to the defense of the artist that designed them.

Really shows that people just want something to hate and don’t actually care to think critically about anything.

How are Sydero & Rahim reacting to Roe saying "I wish you were like them," when they spot siblings being nice/caring to eachother in public?

Sydero: I wish you were less like that. *points to a garbage can*

Rahim: The art of minding one's business is a lost trade, I see.

Sydero: They're in their "bad takes" era.

Rahim: Yet again, an only child think they know everything.

Sydero: The complexities probably boggles their mind.
