Political Correctness Gone MAD... UK-US...or wherever

There is a big debate about a population of wolves recently reintroduced into the Rocky Mountains. The ranchers are complaining because they kill cattle now and then. My thoughts were that they should establish a fund that would recompensate the ranchers for livestock killed by wolves and then it wouldn't be such a problem. I think the world is better off with wolves running free.
 
The wolf is one of my most favourite animals. Beautiful. Wild. The howling echoing round a mountain range is something to hear.
 
Yellow Tangerine...you seem to have a thing about badgers LOL! I'd like to see a badger kill a sheep. I wouldn't really...It'd be like in Monty Python's Holy Grail "ahh it's only a cuddly little bunny rabbit"

If the farmers are being compensated for every animal killed by forest hunters...I bet there's a few farmers out there with Landru's in the basement...know what I mean ;)
 
lol yeah! there's been a few of them if my memory serves me right. all they need is like something to prove the animal is dead by being killed by an animal (like the remains of a foot or something). And they claim that it's too expensive to have a sheperd watching the sheep, so they let the sheep just wander off. We've actually had sheeps wandering around in the suburbs here cause they just kept on wandering over a friggin mountain! so when we have like a huuuge flock of sheep eating our flowers and whatnot, the farmer was like "yeah, so??" but the minute some lonely bear or wolf gets lost among the houses, everybody is like OMG WE HAVE TO KILL IT. instead of just moving the animal out back to where it came from. *rolls eyes* of course, it's not always that easy, cause some of them know there is food to get in the streets, but blah! there's suppose to be room here for everyone!
 
Look at the bones...

The owners of those sheep should have to provide compensation to the property owners for any damage they cause. I once talked to a landowner who claimed that eagles were killing his calves. That is quite a large prey item for a 3 Kg bird. My thoughts were that the calf died of other causes and eagles, being opportunistic feeders and certainly not adverse to scavenging, fed on the already dead carcass.
 
lolol eagles! *rolls eyes* maybe a supersmart eagle who first picked out the calf's eyes and then tormented it to death, but meh..


also, they are trying to ban fireworks in norway, in 2009 or something. LOL! we are 4 million people. Out of these 4 million people, TWO are permantely blind, 128 people were hurt (and someone died i think) by fireworks. of course, a lot more have probably gotten their houses burned to the ground (lols) and as much as I'd hate to be blind/get my house burned down or get hurt by fireworks, 4 MILLION PEOPlE are being punished because some drunks morons decide to set up fireworks and aim it at people or houses. WTF? Ya know what's gonna happen if they ban the fireworks? People will start to smuggle low-quality crap into the country, ya know like low quality stuff that blows up in their faces, and kill off even more people. ARGH, instead of BANNING it, they should throw the drunk lame-os in jail if they mess up their fireworks. let them sit there for a year or two, and they might think of being more careful next year. They should also try to come up with fireworks that are more or less harmless. Look at all the hitech stuff we have, there has to be another way to design fireworks. Of course, the fireworks wont be entirely banned. They will have to have pros who light them in certain ares... which is so sad, cause I love how you can hear the sounds echo in the mountains, and especially when there are so many at the same time, from all over the place. <333 mmmm
 
Jeez I hate it when governments intervene to much. We got a right old Nanny State here. Unreal.

Before even contemplating an outright ban, they could at least look at organised-only events?

I love eagles. Like the one in Polar Express with the wolves :)
 
 
I love Eagles, too. Especially "The long run" and "Love in the fast lane".

I know that was a bad joke, but it HAD to be done.
 
That's right. Bad jokes are better than no jokes at all. How many times have you heard a real groaner of a joke and then went out and told it to the next person you meet?
 
Oh yeah, absolutely. My favourite jokes are sick, ones that make you go "OOOOCH!" whatever. Theyre the ones people send on emails, mobile phone texts....- basically, ones they darent say at work or even to some friends face to face.
