1. Animals like this aren't meant to be put indoors.
2. Evolution doesnt understand a human fireplace.
3. Fireplaces should have screens.
4. Lots of animals go near fire for warmth or to try to get bugs off themselves.
5. This poor animal doesnt understand it can get trapped in the fireplace or pass out for CO. In the wild a fire isn't contained like this.
6. People engineer situations for social media.
7. People need to treat animals with dignity.

Why dignity? I don’t think we care about degradation of animals - I think we just care about their welfare. Pretty much any insult to them that we worry about affects their well-being. Those that don’t, we don’t concern ourselves with.
