PETA needs to pick this up

In short: USDA sub-department "wildlife service" or "wildlife management" tasked with the safety of farm animals, as well as keeping wildlife from interferring with airport operation guilty of animal abuse.  Use steel leg snares to capture animals (in this story ... coyotes) and then allow attack dogs to kill the animals.  Was brought to the attention by a former employee and verified with pictures from a FB account of an employee.

 

I don't farm, and have never been a farmer. But I do like animals, and even the annoying / mean ones deserve better than this. If it's determined these animals deserve to die, then let's do it humanely.  There's no need to let attack dogs circle a trapped predator and torture/abuse it to death ... while the federal employees laugh and videotape for their own pleasure.  They (the .gov) are getting completely out of hand on so many levels. The one time I think I might agree with some of PETA's "issues" would be this ...

PETA has had some legit concerns and has done SOME good.   There are still a few slaughterhouses that have mean workers and so on, a few places where animals are kept in horrid conditions, and that should be improved.   If nothing else, it makes US healthier to eat healthy animals, humane issues aside.

 

PETA *lost* too much credibility and has gone out on too many kooky tangents to be respected now, though.  The garbage to block animated commercials is just stupid, as one example.  They also have done anti-gun and anti-hunting stuff, which is far, far more humane than some of commercial meat.  They also fail to accept culling an overpopulated species,  and prefer them to starve and suffer than to be managed.  In short, kooks.

Not to mention they are apparently going to be demonstrating at the Starcraft 2 Swarm Hive whatever thing release in Irvine, CA passing out pamplets about how people should respect all living creatures, even the FICTIONAL ALIEN RACE, THE ZERG in the game.

Why not have someone patrol the runways?

 

 

 

PETA are mostly nutjobs who cant seem past their idiodic views ...

 

I will say thoAnd as much as I hate to say it..Snares are not humane in any  way shape or form.I understand they have been used for ages within the hunting comunity.Still doesnt makes them humane.
