Endangered Sumatran Elephants Poisoned

Since the Conservative-led coalition got into power here, there's been a big rise in the numbers of buzzards found poisoned, probably by landowners who raise captive pheasants for shooting. The landowners think, rightly, that wildlife protection laws won't be enforced under the Conservatives (who have also found £375,000 of taxpayers money to spend on destroying buzzard nests to "protect" pheasants...). Truly outrageous. Buzzards provide an invaluable service to the ecosystem by keeping the earth clean. But we mustn't get in the way of the gentry's pursuit of leisure must we. How sad for all the wildlife of the world, they get it from the entire spectrum of humanity - from inbred white trash (like the special ed fellow from Mississippi) up to inbred blue bloods called "royalty" and everything in between. The political hacks in my neck of the woods have decided to reopen hunting for wolves, whose population has just shown signs of recovering after being endangered for decades, because ranchers are whining about losing a few calves per year (which they are reimbursed for anyway). The ranchers already given carte blanche to kill wolves and mountain lions on their property without restrictions. One of the more outrageous acts of cruelty reported was that of a rancher baiting a snare with fresh deer meat which of course attracted a cougar. It was then snared by its hind paw and then hung upside suspended in air for 3 days until it died of exhaustion trying to free itself. Aren't human beings wonderful. |
