No need.

Heat and eat: delicious au naturale - roasted by an open fire.

Well that’s that.

Abolish every single hunting law, fishing license or limit. Allow Bald Eagles to be shot for sport and stuffed. Start making and selling bluebird and hummingbird pie. Eliminate poaching as a crime.

Just disbar every state’s wildlife management service and fire all the game wardens. Don’t need them anymore.

I recall USFW killed over 3.000 because they are voracious eaters, and kill a lot of fish. I think they were considered invasive.

In my locale they would also add destroying park district property, as that is where they live.

“Fishing with no regards to limit or protected species.”

We see that a lot here. And you can add illegal methods to that list. We have found jug lines and the like. The concept of catch and release is absolutely beyond them.

The rangers around here are having real issue with them.

Have been viciously attacked one too many times here for posting an untagged sarcastic remark!

No doubt these “New Yorkers” were residing in a hotel at the expense of the taxpayers.

Aren’t Swans just really big cousins to geese? They used to be real popular in olde England and France.

“”While hunting ducks while stupid and with out a license is not ideal, better that than shoplifting or mugging.””

According to the article at least one of them had a hunting license.

I’m actually less upset since they ate it, rather than just killing it for no good reason.

Tundra swans are legitimately hunted in at least several states in the upper midwest.

“I always found wild swan a little too greasy and gristly.”

Thing is, some (maybe even most) of the swans you see on ponds are not wild at all, they are domesticated swans. My company has an apartment complex out in the suburbs with a pond, and we actually have to rent swans to keep in the pond. The swan company delivers them to us in the spring and comes back to collect them before the winter freeze, since the swans wouldn’t survive this far north, and I guess being domestic, they don’t know to migrate.
