The American "influencer" who snatched a baby wombat in Australia has apologized.
@AssociatedPress has an explainer about these furry, nocturnal marsupials: https://flip.it/3ddhr5
AP News · Wombats are cute, furry marsupials — that shouldn't be picked up
1/2 Feeling outraged by the baby #wombat grabbing #influencer while consuming animal products seems weird, if not hypocritical. This is what modern #animalagriculture in #Australia looks like:

Als eine die Jagd ausübende Person nicht zu wissen (oder einfach zu ignorieren), dass der Nachwuchs nicht ohne Not vom Muttertier getrennt werden sollte: ist das erblich?
Ach, die Dame ist „Influencerin“ von Beruf? Und die Jagd nur ein Hobby - oder auch Mittel zum Zweck…? 
Influencer sind womöglich nicht die größte Landplage - aber sie sind sehr nah dran.

Heute eins diessen seltenen Exemplare eines "Eichsfelder Wombat" gesichtet.
Her story is what we in Australia call ‘bullshit’.
While the internet is ablaze after a woman from the US picked up a young #wombat in Australia and separated it from its mother in a rather stupid move (for which she now tries to apologise after fleeing the country), perhaps #Australians here could explain the background of targeted killings as detailed here?

A "Hunting Influencer" was concerned for the animal. 
Bollocks
I saw the video, the look on her face wasn't of concern but of "look at this weird, cute thing, and look at me, look at me, look at me"
These narcissistic abusers can stay in Gilead, thanks.
The Guardian · Baby wombat-snatching US influencer apologises and says she was ‘concerned’ for Australian animal
Die #Tagesthemen berichten von einer amerikanischen Influenzerin, die in Australien ein #Wombat-Baby vor den Augen ihrer Mutter hochhebt und kurz entführt. Der Premierminister äußerte sich dazu und schlägt ihr vor, das nächste Mal ein Baby-Krokodil vor den Augen seiner Mutter hochzuheben.
Warum auch immer das Nachrichtenwert fürs deutsche Fernsehen besitzt.
If only a calf was a #wombat

Reasons to love Australia. My comment of the week goes to Anthony Albanese the Australian PM, on the baby wombat debacle. What a funny, brutal, and flawless response…
“They are gentle, lovely creatures… I suggest to this so-called “influencer”, maybe she should try some other Australian animals, maybe she should try a crocodile.
Take a baby crocodile from its mother and see how you go there…”

Just been reading about “influencers” after the baby wombat debacle. If these are the kind of people others aspire to, then lord help the next generation.
Be your own person, form your own ideas, and be influenced by people from history who really count. Being obsessed with the idea of making money from tacky advertising or inane trivia isn’t a character trait I particularly admire.
I definitely feel a poll coming on…

I've driven on Australia's country roads.
Seen the carnage of the wildlife.
I can't begin to tell you how bad it is.
It's hard knowing this and seeing the prominence given to the baby wombat handling fool.
They just don't match up.
smh
