I wonder if sea cables could be designed with some mechanism that could stand being dragged and even crossed somewhere but returning later to its position automatically with a click. Something like a giant karabiner.

Is true that we should keep in mind that there is an implicit "at least" 150 eagles killed by just one company. Plus all the other bird species. This value is a minimum estimation. Several scientific studies calculate than between

A second species of Asian wasp appeared also in Europe near an Amazon warehouse. Extirpated, I hope. The situation with Vespa velutina looks "stabilized" with a lot of traps set, but they still keep killing people here and there.
