This is what I've thought about for the longest time. Imagine the fishes getting killed by depth charges and torpedo blasts. The bombs landing on land and cratering it, killing the burrowing rabbits, insects and other underground creatures. I've always wondered if we have inadvertently killed animals that could have compounds with medicinal value, or just extincted a rare animal, by war. These animals would have no idea what's going on. The bullets, bombs, planes and tanks are like spacecraft for them, as we would view of spacecrafts lasering us from heaven.
I think this is where I was coming from with my original comment, although I had not thought about these specific things… it’s like that movie I can’t remember that came out in the 90’s about the insect that could cure cancer being killed by rainforest devastation…. Was just taking a moment to reflect how I saw this headline photo as hurting wildlife…. Regardless of which side of the war you’re on… but, and I feel the need to say it although I think I translated it wrong… fuck your Russian battleships?
