One day I’m going to frame a coloured drawing I still have from year one. The following event is also still ingrained in my mind: We had to colour in a picture with several animals, one of which was a small spotted reptile in a puddle of water. Clearly a salamander.
The teacher crossed it out in red pen and screamed that I am old enough to know lizards are green and there is no such thing as a black and yellow animal on this earth.
I know this is about reptiles and amphibians, but uh…bees, wasps, and hornets would like to meet this teacher and have a…pointed…conversation with them before the spotted salamander walks all over the afflicted areas.
What about tigers? Also some cats.
Rhetorical question btw, i’m sure you tried to argue something similar at that point. I think the stories on these comments are making me angry

I’m pretty sure she didn’t consider those to be animals, only “bugs”
Right…because bugs aren’t types of insects and insects aren’t part of the Animalia Kingdom…OH WAIT!!!
How the fuck do these types of people get their education degrees‽‽‽
