Just swimming through...

When I was a child, I often watched my grandfather repairing fishing nets. He used to say, that some fishes learn to break nets. In this child´s mind, it became quite a scene, with one Fish out there in murky waters being so intelligent, that would never surrender in front of too weak nets...

Water with wildlife is precious. It is sad to see what is currently happening to sea Life... Freshwater lakes, rapids, streams... When all is directly or indirectly harnessed to become part of money-making industries... It often means that Life gets the second place, if any place at all.

The day will come when we will regret it, if we don´t change our way of living TOGETHER with other species on this planet.
