Did you read the newspaper report about the two-day-old beluga whale that was airlifted to an aquarium and is now being fed by a stomach tube until it can learn how to suck a bottle? In the same section of the paper, Fio read about a drone killing fifteen suspected militants in Pakistan. Interesting. We save whales, but kill each other.
Okay, Fio understands that the strike was pre-emptive, that the militants would have wiped out the whole countryside if they'd had a chance, but still, she'd rather we humans all just got along with each other and devoted our energies to saving baby whales.
And, by the way, that's another thing that separates us from the beasts: they don't take care of us, but we seem impelled to take care of them.
Just like the Biblical injunction.
