In my opinion, humans are not superior or more intelligent than animals. We are different and have different intelligences, but that doesn't mean I'm superior. As such, animals must have rights, protection, and care. All life is sacred. I also believe that the earth is self-existent and that the trees, the rivers, the mountains, the oceans, everything.

Even though Lee had been staying in Kalahari for almost three years the Kalahari people still consider him an outsider. Lee also has not shared his food with...
