The new Government did in fact anticipate something might happen a year earlier and decided to move the soldiers of the Northern Division out of Tigray and relocate them elsewhere. They created the force, reared, and nurtured only to slaughter them later like lambs. When the TPLF came to power in 1991, they disbanded the previous national army and rebuilt a new one from the scratch in their own liking, based on evil ethnic politics. A huge mistake!Įthiopians remember the night of 03 November 2021 as the first anniversary of the massacre of the unsuspecting Ethiopian National Defence Force (ENDF), Northern Division, by collaborative conspiracy of the TPLF Special Forces and Tigrayan members of the ENDF within barracks in Tigray everywhere at the same time. Rather than embracing the change and enjoying the riches they embezzled, they chose war to return to power. The Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF), better known as Tigray People’s Looting Front, ruled Ethiopia with iron fist for 27 years until a popular uprising ousted them from power in 2018. Tigray is losing a generation of its youth in the interest of greedy old men. Some of the fighters are just 12 years old. Fighting in Afar and Amhara regions to protect few criminals is crazy. They are falling as autumn leaves for the reason known only to them. CNN may have the answer.=īoth the child as well as the adult solders of Tigray, are like Lemmings. They commit suicide jumping off the cliff. WCS plans to track these changes as part of the Arctic Wildlife Observatories Linking Vulnerable Ecosystems (ArcticWOLVES) project, based at Laval University in Quebec.Lemmings are cute northern hemisphere animals. Shifts in climate will force both lemmings and their predators to adjust, possibly causing changes in the abundance of near-Arctic species. Also, the tundra is experiencing unusual warm periods in winter, including freezing rain and episodes of thawing and freezing, which can coat much of the lemmings’ foods (sedges and dwarf shrubs) in ice.” “Later arrival of autumn snows, and earlier spring melts, could subject lemmings to longer periods of sub-freezing temperatures. “Sufficient snow depth insulates the rodents from frigid temperatures, allowing them to devote more energy to breeding and less to avoiding predators,” writes John Delaney of WCS. WCS reports that snow is likely “one of the key ingredients for lemming abundance and productivity.” WCS says that lemmings play a key role in the near-Arctic ecology, serving as “an important prey species for a number of predators, including arctic foxes, red foxes, rough-legged hawks, peregrine falcons, snowy and short-eared owls, jaegers, gulls, weasels, wolverines, and grizzly bears,” populations of which shift due to lemming abundance. The myth was was propagated by The Walt Disney Company documentary White Wilderness which staged scenes showing the animals leaping from cliffs. Don Reid/Wildlife Conservation SocietyĬontrary to popular belief, lemmings do not commit mass suicide when they migrate. “The ability of lemmings to adapt to these changes will have a significant impact on the entire food web, so we need to understand more about lemming ecology within the context of climate change.”Ĭollared lemming.
“We need to know how climate change will affect a variety of resident and migratory predators that rely in large part on these small arctic rodents,” said Dr. The Bronx Zoo-based group has just announced plans to study the impact of global warming on these creatures of the far North.
Lemmings, the rodents inaccurately believed to commit mass suicide by jumping off cliffs, are at real risk from climate change, reports the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS).
