If #interspecies #war sounds like a concept that only exists in #scifi and #fantasy, remember that humans have fought wars against #emus and #whales.
The book #MobyDick was, at the time, #RealisticFiction about the ongoing counter-attacks that #SpermWhales were doing against anything that looked like a #whaling ship, and the ongoing efforts of the whaling ships to fight them, effectively a war between whales and #whalers.
It's not fiction, it's the result of #specieism.

I loved this team growing up. They were about as damaged as I was π
Getting some old things of mine back in the mail finally. I remember begging my parents to buy this for me, the only one left was size large. It finally fits almost 30 years later and boy the 90βs cut does not disappoint. #hockey #vintage #whalers
I still think the #Hurricanes thrown uniforms need to be the #Whalers uniforms. #NHL :whalers:
@goingtopshelf @hockey ok, I gotta ask why youβre no longer a #Whalers fan? #HockeytownSouth and the #Canes welcome everyone!

May we appreciate for a moment the #PHFβs #ConnecticutWhale have given a new home to former #Hartford #Whalers mascot Pucky?
