“The case has triggered fresh debate about whether cubs rejected by their mothers should be saved or whether nature should be allowed to run its course. “


Do you save the cubs
or let nature takes its course?

One shall save the cubs because it happened in the zoo. I don't think that one shall go to arctic  to looking for this and save the cubs there.

Hi John -- Is saving the cubs not part of letting nature take it's course?  Are people not part of nature? I understand the distinction being made, but is it really there?

Best, Jim

Indeed, Human Nature needs to take its course too.
