Lions in South-Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia

[Duco Ndona]

A puppy or other domesticated animal should be helped. These are animals that have been completely dependent from us from the start as opposed to a wild animal. 

The best way we can help nature is to give it the space to do its own thing. 
An animal stuck in a snare, net or otherwise hurt by human activity Offcource didn't get the space it needed from us. So intervening is right in these circumstances. 
The same with introducing locally extinct animals in the local ecosystem like wolves. As while the changes to nature are huge. They are intended to revert damage earlier done to it. 
Similarly, a animal that is critically endangered is allowed to receive more help than a common one to offset our damage to the species. 

The only real examples that break this rule is the prevention of epidemics or other large events that could severely hurt the local wildlife population if left unchecked. Or activities that only minimally bother the animals but helps them indirectly. Like holding safaris to fund anti poacher programs or chasing lions away from a carcas to check if it was poached..
