“If there are signs of humans, you MUST add details to the post title proving a good life is lived. To ensure we're not accidentally promoting abusive situations, if there are posts that show evidence of humans in any way they must have information about the shot/video IN THE POST TITLE,” the moderators explain what other information you should share, depending on the type of pic posted.
“Answer these kinds of questions: 1) Why are there signs of humans, and how are the humans improving the lives of the animal? 2) Which sanctuary is this? 3) What was the story behind the animal? Is it a rehab? 4) Why is it interacting with humans at all?”
Meanwhile, members of the community should try to keep the content free from signs of injuries and hunting trophies. Now, obviously, these animals are dangerous and they hunt other living things for sustenance. However, the subreddit aims to “respect their beauty and not demonize them.”
If you share any photos that aren’t yours, do your best to credit the original photographer. And if you ever have doubts about whether or not a particular animal pic belongs on the sub, consider whether they could, theoretically, hurt a dozen or so people if they wanted to. Nobody actually wants to see these animals hurting anyone, obviously, but the ‘dangerous’ part in the ‘cute and dangerous’ can’t be entirely ignored, either.
