careful with the invasive species
The photo i shoose based on nothing more than the fact that it was the last picture in my camera roll. But after thinking about it, the story behind it is a quick glance to my career.
You see, there in the picture is a friend of mine with a bumblebee on his belly, a bombus terrestris, that is not natuve and is not good for our ecosystems.
We were in the General Cemetery, when this little fella committed the mistake of approaching to the only environmental biologist (probably) in the whole place. So I take a photo, we admire him for a while and then we figured out the species.
Im my career it's not weirt to take care of animals when they're in the wrong place, doing the wrong things. An example of this is the case of the Galápagos goats. This goats take over the Island spreading fast and destroying the ecosystem, so, since Galápagos island is such and important place to research, they decide to hunt them all.
The scientists put a tracker on one of the goats and follow her to the rest of the herb so they were all killed. And that happened often enoght with a lot of animals. Due to climate change, some (many) animals had moved from their homes to other places, and that's usually a bad thing. Another examples are sea urchin (couldn’t find the video for this one) and lion fish (https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMjGXXsYL/).

Some people may think it was a cruel thing, but, to be fair, the bumblebee was in a cemetary; it was it's destiny
