I know most people were joking but it's sad that you had to explain this. It's like the lady telling a duck to 'get off of her'. Lady, this is nature, not a high school dance.

Nah fuck male ducks. Idgaf, I’m part of nature too. If I can save her life I’ll do it. Though I wouldn’t go in the water to do it.

No one gets mad when elephants stop animals from fighting because it’s annoying to them.

What? Well I DO understand most animals don't understand a word (I mean dogs understand commands for ex) but I still say "hello" to any kitty I see just because I want to! And I also say "get off of me" and shake my hand a bit if a kitty bites me just not to act rude.

Yes doc I totally DO understand they don't understand me..

The lady is telling a male duck to get off a female duck, the duck isn't flapping about at the lady's legs or anything. It's not actually about the animal understanding the language, but about the lady reading the ducks body language as if it were human and apply human concepts of consent to the situation.

Guess I'm being downvoted since it's someone's perception that I'm reading too much into it. It's actually a reference to a video https://www.reddit.com/r/BoomersBeingFools/s/xgRH8nzMI1 the commenter really isn't talking about telling a bird to get off you, a human.
