Humans are a plague. We don't deserve this planet. We ruin absolutely everything and very few seem to actually give a damn. We just love to casually wipe species out, just another Friday for us.

Literally they are just like bees everyone kills them when if you don't mess with them they won't mess with you except for the only thing that's different between the Gars and the bees is that even when you do try and mess with the gars it doesn't try and hurt you at all except for bees do when you mess with them so just leave Gars alone

They should put tracking chips on them because when they do get protected then if the chip is with someone they can get in trouble
