i genuinely dont care if the creation of all media comes to a screeching halt btw i will very gladly live with no new movies no new tv shows no new anything for years if that’s what it takes for the people who create them to be treated like human beings. i hope every other facet of the entertainment industry goes on strike too and i hope all the ones that havent unionised yet will. i want media creation to become completely impossible and i want the people who could make it possible again to hold out until they get every single thing they want. btw
hmmmā¦ thereās probably an INFINITELY more humane way to do thisā¦
i get that theyāre not killing them and they end up fine, but imagine the trauma of you, a mammal, going through a long ass tube, not knowing whatās going to happen to you, and you canāt breathe. š¤·āāļø
They get misted with water throughout the thing, and it results in fewer injuries than the āladderā method. Also, itās a fish. It never knows whatās going to happen to it at any point in time throughout its life.
Also, I, a mammal, have paid 80 bucks to get into a water park to get the opportunity to feel like that fish, and that motherfucker gets in for free every day is fish day at the fish waterpark
well the MOST humane thing would be to not build dams blocking salmon migration routes, nor create a society where there are only resources allocated to solving the problem at all because blocking the salmon endangers the profits of a segment of the food industry.Ā
Buuuut since weāre past that already, here are a couple of additional thoughts:
1 this IS the more humane alternative, which was invented to lower injury and death rates associated with previous techniques. When a better alternative is revealed it will probably replace this one. But this one is a pretty huge improvement over the other methods, one of which killed off something like 80% of the fish involved.
A study of the above fish tube was conducted by Pacific Northwest National Laboratories in 2017 on the Columbia River and showed a much higher success rate. In that study, only one fish died (ādue to a human error during the system setupā) and only 3 percent had signs of injury. So. The next best improvement might have to beĀ āremove damā
2 they are on their way to die. That is where we are helping them get to. Thatās the end goal of the salmonās migration. They on their way to mutate, start rotting alive, have an orgy, and die. Thatās where the tube is taking them.
So like, itās not going to be the weirdest thing they experience this month, is what iām saying.Ā
