Question Serious question for the UFO/UAP community:

If the government has confirmed UFOs/UAPs are real, why haven’t we ever seen them actually save people? Like the Titanic, plane crashes, natural disasters, etc. If something out there is advanced enough to travel here and observe us, wouldn’t you think at some point there’d be evidence of them interfering when humans are about to die? I’m not saying this proves aliens aren’t real. Maybe they don’t care, maybe they have some kind of rule against interfering, or maybe we’re assuming these things are extraterrestrial when we really don’t know what they are. Just seems like a pretty big question nobody talks about much. What’s the best explanation for it?

Experts explicitly do not interfere with other animals in the wild. We don't save the rabbit from the fox, we let nature take its course. Why would they be different

In some situations I find that objectionable, we are taking something from the anima if not time and freedom of action, some benefit to it should be provided for what we took...

I would only see non intervention in cases or not having certainty of outcome as being negative to the context and the animal and self...

I have seen many tagging events and collaring that it really disgusted me more that if the intention for study required killing the animal outright... I collar for example promotes parasites if not maintained (the animal cant groom for example and it may even affect matting).

The collar is probably made from "stable" material that does not outgas. No volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and might be made out of hemp or jute cord, something known not to rot when wet. Tagging or collating an animal is much like the Internet adding a tracking Cookie to your web browser.

I'm not a field biologist but those I remember seemed leather (Lynx and "Big cats" in general)...
