It is going to be a long 12 years for leftists in the west.
The wombat lives across the seas,
Among the far Antipodes.
He may exist on nuts and berries,
Or then again, on missionaries;
His distant habitat precludes
Conclusive knowledge of his moods,
But I would not engage the wombat
In any form of mortal combat.
— The Wombat, Ogden Nash
A “U.S. Influencer”?
A rhyming couplet, irresistible to use across the centuries.
U.S. Jackass.
I’ve always liked animals better than people. Would gladly stick a sword through this vicious idiot. Hope baby survives.
12 years?
An ugly American abroad.
Trump 47 with Vance 48 for two terms. Vance's debate skills are mad crazy.
I have always been leery of people that treat animals better than people because they will naturally treat people worse than animals.
Stupid but I saw this and the extreme outrage is way over done.
She put it back in less than a minute. Shouldn’t have done it for many reasons but please.
When crocodile hunter joyfully did stuff like this, it was all OK.
She shouldn’t have but it was not the crime of the century.
Understand perfectly well. People have a choice and free will. Animals often have no choice outside of basic instinct and survival. When given a choice, we often see animals chose compassion, but we often see humans choosing the opposite
I saw the video, appalling. That is one entitled, self centered woman who know nothing about wild animals and the fragility of baby animals handled by humans & then rejected by Mom because of human scent.
Like Hamas she videoed her crime. She should have been arrested.
Hey, Sam, keep yourself inside the US and play with the baby bison and grizzlies.
Your mileage varies. I was shocked by her callous disregard for the welfare of mother & baby. The wombat was an accessory for her, not a living breathing creature.
“She said she came upon the mom and joey on the road and went to ensure they got out of the way of traffic”
Keep digging dumb$hit.
The Wombats were on the side of the road, she grabs the Joey, runs into the middle of the Road were her car was and hammed it up for the Camera with a clearly seen distressed Mother and Joey.
Why is NPR trying to lay collective guilt on all Americans for one person’s actions? Absurd.
