I'm always down for replacing problematic celebrities, especially when you can replace them with precious critters.

Yes, yes...most species have individuals that do horrible things to other animals/species, but I'm more willing to ignore the outliers of species that do not have the capacity for complex ethical philosophy. In this case, pointing out aberrant abominable behavior is more pedantry than discourse, in my opinion.
