Wild Quotes

People expect black women to be angry, irrationally so, without reason. They think we are animals and we go around like the Wild Things Picture Quote #1

Some kinds of animals burrow in the ground; others do not. Some animals are nocturnal, as the owl and the bat; others use the hours of daylight. There are tame animals and wild animals. Man and the mule are always tame; the leopard and the wolf are invariably wild, and others, as the elephant, are easily tamed Picture Quote #1

My father... removed from Kentucky to... Indiana, in my eighth year... It was a wild region, with many bears and other wild animals still in the woods. There I grew up... Of course when I came of age, I did not know much. Still somehow, I could read, write, and cipher... but that was all Picture Quote #1

I’ve had a love of animals from birth. I love getting to know other species. We should all be aware that there is not one thing we can give a wild animal in captivity that they need Picture Quote #1

It was wrong to capture wild animals and confine them in captivity for people to go and gawk at them. And that’s basically how zoos got started. But once you do that, and once you have animals that have been bred in captivity, you’re really stuck with them in some sense. You can’t return them to the wild Picture Quote #1

When I was a child, going to a circus with wild animal acts was a rite of passage. These days, it’s an act of complicit cruelty Picture Quote #1

Wild fish are under threat of extinction because they’re hunted to feed us. Yet land animals that we farm are under no threat of extinction. Shifting from hunting fish to farming fish - where the farmers have the incentive to keep their stocks healthy - could do a tremendous amount of good for wild fish Picture Quote #1

We have wild animals in zoos, yet people rarely meet their ‘food’ face to face Picture Quote #1

Because pandemics almost always begin with the transmission of an animal microbe to a human, it’s work that takes me all around the globe - from rain forest hunting camps of central Africa to wild animal markets of east Asia Picture Quote #1

Most of these wild animals depart in autumn when the sun changes their behavior and they feel the urge to migrate or go off alone. While they are with us, however, they become characters in my books, articles, and stories Picture Quote #1

Those who wish to pet and baby wild animals ‘love’ them. But those who respect their natures and wish to let them live normal lives, love them more Picture Quote #1

The Snow Leopard’s Tale is a mystical pilgrimage into that wild country where animal passion and the human heart begin to walk the very same trail. Whether one has been in the business of adventuring, as Thomas McIntyre has, or has enjoyed such adventures from the safety of one’s armchair, The Snow Leopard’s Tale is a haunting, beautifully written, and thought-provoking tale, as all great parables are Picture Quote #1

You don’t see sick animals in the wild. You don’t see lame animals in the wild, and its all because of the predator: the lion, the tiger, the leopard, all the cats Picture Quote #1

To mistrust science and deny the validity of scientific method is to resign your job as a human. You’d better go look for work as a plant or wild animal Picture Quote #1

Like many animals, wild ponies can sense a drop in barometric pressure. When a storm threatens, they know to seek shelter in hilly areas and huddle together with their rumps facing the oncoming wind Picture Quote #1

My favorite animal to hunt is probably elk. There’s nothing like the sound of a bugling bull splitting the cold air at first light. And that smell is unmistakable. Once you experience their musk in the wild there’s no going back! A close second would be a varmint hunt Picture Quote #1

Fish farming, even with conventional techniques, changes fish within a few generations from an animal like a wild buffalo or a wildebeest to the equivalent of a domestic cow Picture Quote #1

My wife says that I become different once I start to work with animals. My movements become different, my mood is different. It involves letting everything fall behind you, becoming intuitive in your dealings with wild creatures in a way that bypasses reason. Sometimes it’s more like a dance than anything else Picture Quote #1

Nothing heightens chaos more than a berserk wild animal right in the middle Picture Quote #1

Wild animals are just as confused as people are now. You’ve got toxins in the water, oil, sewage, all sorts of things Picture Quote #1

If you look at little kids and wild animals, these are two groups of things that whenever I’m with them forces me to be in the moment Picture Quote #1

Several countries - among them Austria, Costa Rica, Denmark, Finland, India, Israel and Sweden - ban or severely restrict the use of wild animals in circuses. In Brazil, a movement to ban wild animals from circuses started after hungry lions managed to grab and devour a small boy Picture Quote #1

Wild animals bite the hand that feeds them. Clever people consume the entire body Picture Quote #1
