Good for her. Her good deed is cause for thanks. Most people are good, and I think most people would have done the same for a sea turtle they saw tangled up like that.
I value human life far above animal life. I am not touchy feely and get all melty over animals. Nature is brutal. See turtles are predators and prey and live in a brutal environment of raw survival where you can be eaten at any moment. Tons of sea turtles get consumed by predators daily. So another dead sea turtle doesn’t bother me in the least.
At the same time, wanton and purposeless death is just wrong. How can you not sympathize with seeing an animal trapped or in distress and not want to help.
Of course, this feeling generally only applies to mammals and birds, with the more cute or majestic they are, the more likely we are to help them. As far as insects and reptiles — not bloody likely.
That is just how humans are wired. Mammals, especially cute, comely, and majestic mammals, just tug our heart strings.
So good for her in helping the sea turtle. Christmas spirit and all.

Good thing for the turtle that it was her and not Alec Baldwin.

Clearly that was videoed on a phone...or a 30 year old camera.

After last call on a Friday night and I’ve got a few under the belt? Sure. But get the hell out of my house come Saturday night and don’t come back.

“all while while speaking in Portuguese, with a film crew....“
Looks like a cell phone, likely has someone with her.
What’s the problem?

While that is admirable. I would be more impressed with Bundchen if she saved a human baby from being ripped out of it’s mother’s womb.

Apparently, your friend’s video wasn’t interesting to the news crew. Or maybe your friend didn’t find it interesting either.
