War and Wildlife: Ukraine

     The war in Ukraine has claimed tens of thousands of lives, and yet somehow it get's worse. While during wars the media talk about casualties, there are other casualties that people never notice. Animals and nature itself are some of the least talked about victims in wars. Whether it's elephants having to walk through mine filled streets, jungles sprayed with chemicals in Vietnam or entire forests wiped out in WWI trench fighting, Animals are always the unintentional target.

In Ukraine, fighting in the black sea has obliterated wildlife. From marine birds being homeless, to dolphins getting blown to pieces, we should always remember the wildlife that is affected during wars. Afterall, it's not Mother Nature's fault that killing each other is part of human politics.
