Weird way to phrase it, but the fact that they had a photo of P-22 from 2014 and it stayed in the area after the attack means it was probably getting too old to hunt effectively, which led it to attacking the little boy.
getting a little tired of the “they were here first” mantra, which fairly echoes through the Florida air whenever an alligator eats someone.
Why not? The lion could be tried in one of your kangaroo courts! Free kitty now!
Dollars to donuts the kid was an anchor baby with brain-dead illegal-alien parents who were most likely partly responsible for the attack. Was the kid just injured or killed? Didn’t see that info in the article either. Article doesn’t provide one ounce of identifying data for the child or the parents. Means the “officials” are hiding something they just don’t want anyone to see.
California used to have a hunting season for mountain lions. Then some animal lovers got the hunting of mountain lions banned.
Now California has lots of them roaming around.
I raise goats. The lions kill them.
When I defend my goats I am arrested,
Because a GREAT MAN who is above raising goats,
Would be in need of Mountain Lions.
(From an old lament from the middle ages rewritten for mountain lions)
“That’s what happens when we are in their territory!”
We hear that all the time from libs in North Idaho about the white tail deer. The deer population is out of control and the libs bring that lame stupid argument out every time somebody suggests deer population control.
The deer have 1,100 square miles of National Forest right behind us to call home, but, no! They want to live where the people are.
So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth."
- Genesis 1:26-28 (kjv)
Anything that attacks and hurts or kills a child needs to be dispatched. That includes human predators; child molesters, rapists and kidnappers.
To bad we didn’t do that with murderers, rapist and child molesters. Instead they relocate them.
