Blood sells but it shouldn’t
I’ve written many essays about how media (print and film) often offers sensationalist and thoroughly misleading stories about various nonhuman animals (animals). Now, Animal Planet is guilty of putting forth sensationalist lies about wolves. Concerning gray wolves, Brooks Fahy, Executive Director of Predator Defense, alerted that they’ve recently written: “Razor sharp teeth, killer instincts, and senses so precise they hear your beating heart, and your fear. They’re on the hunt, and now with numbers growing out of control, they’re threatening humans like never before.”
These lies — there have been only two verified accounts of wolves killing humans — are to publicize Anmal Planet’s series called Monster Week and their episode titled “Man-Eating Super Wolves.”
As research is anthrozoology has clearly shown, our relationship with other animals is a complex and challenging affair and the least we should expect — and demand — is that media represent animals as they really are, not as some imagine them to be. And, surely, misleading advertisements and stories about animals should not be used to make money or to induce fear when, indeed, existing data show that they are not dangerous at all. Shameon Animal Planet. Blood and lies should not sell.
PLEASE CONTACT ANIMAL PLANET – to protest their reprehensible misrepresentation of wolves and other animals and please find something else to do when these programs air. THIS IS HORRIFIC AND MISLEADING HYPE!”

Wild animals rarely attack humans much less deliberately prey upon them. In one month, you can count on maybe at most two hands the number of attacks by wild animals on humans worldwide. You would need hundreds of hands to count the number of human-on-human attacks that occur in just the United States each day! Which species should we really fear?
Reblogged this on Spirit In Action and commented:
I hope everyone will contact animal planet. Wolves in the Americas are very shy creatures-and endangered almost to extinction. It is pure evil to portray them as dangerous and vicious.
PROOF that Animal Planet DID NOT CANCEL “MAN-EATING SUPER WOLVES”. It is soon to air in the UK (England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales)! WE have three days left to let the network know of our outrage – this time BEFORE it airs Prime Time. (Permission given to forward this info)
