I no animal rights activists - just love dogs and wildlife in the wild.
We have an annual slaughter in Seattle on Highyay 520 that has a Jersery Barrier between East bound and West bound lanes. The road bisects two forested areas.
The poor little racoons trying to get to the other side to find a mate in the spring are routinely slaughtered by the traffic when they are trapped by the Jersey Barrier. I have no idea of the count but it seems some days its is as high as 10-15 - other days less. But each day I make that commute I see 5+. All this in a 2 to 3 mile stretch of highway.
I’m getting soft in my old age, but it’s not hard to feel a pang of remorse for the senselessness and futility of their deaths.
...and then have terrible gas.
That is funny!!!
UGH! Figures!!!
that looks obscene
