The Federal Government has announced a plan to begin shooting feral cattle from helicopters in order to protect the environment.
...
Local ranchers, however, have criticized the plan as cruel and have warned about the unintended consequences ...
They say it sets a dangerous precedent, as more and more ranching plots are left vacant across the West and fences become untended. They claim that this could result in privately owned cattle wandering off and getting caught up in the mix.

ranchers are also worried that the wolves who eat the carcasses of the dead animals will become used to eating cattle and will come closer to ranches in order to find more to eat.

“So, we were having our outdoor religious revival meeting and praising the Lord, and these Fed helicopters flew over and started shooting into the crowd!”
Arm those feral cattle so they can return fire!
liberal fascists want to have scores to settle.
So they are going to shoot all that meat and let it just rot? Why doesn’t the government do this for feral hogs which are far more destructive.
Why not give out hunting permits and let people harvest the meat?
Honestly,, if there’s a wrong way to deal with an issue, it’s an absolute guarantee the government will pick the worst option available.
Right!
They never think what the outcome will be from their stupidity
