Wolves attack horses in French ski station
AFP ^ | 24 October 2013

Posted on 11/21/2013 12:41:49 PM PST by george76

Wolves have killed one horse and badly injured another in an attack on the outskirts of a ski village close to the French Riviera, officials said Thursday.

The attack, at Auron in the Alpes-Maritimes region inland from Nice, was the latest incident to trigger anger among farmers in southeastern France over the protected status of wolves and their growing numbers.

The owner of the horses, Jacques Riguccini, said a pack of wolves had chased around 30 of his animals one night last week and one of them had been ripped apart after getting tangled up in safety netting by the side of a ski slope.

"I'm not breeding horses to provide meat for wolves," the exasperated farmer told AFP. Riguccini says he has lost four horses to wolves in recent years.

If his government does nothing, and I expect it won't. He needs to invest in a couple of these:

Just one ping. Nothing urgent. :)

UN Agenda 21.

In a few more years they'll be telling the farmers that the land belongs to the wildlife and will force them to move into high-rise containment facilities in high population density cities where all the peasants will be herded.

“In Wolves In Russia,” Will Graves reports on a long history of wolf attacks on people in Eurasia, especially Russia, Pakistan, India and Kazakhastan, including thousands of fatal ones

Yep. We’re having a lot of predation in northern Wisconsin, too.

Beau had a wolf tag this year (2nd year they’ve allowed us to hunt them in WI) but he only saw two on the way up, and didn’t see any on the ground once he was there.

However, over 200 have been culled. It’s a start. They are BEAUTIFUL animals, and I am truly a Canine Obsessed-type, but even the coyotes around my farm are quite bold and make me nervous sometimes for my chickens and dogs.

The eco-wackos need to choose if we're going to have any clothing at all...

Natural fibers like cotton and wool means farming and ranching.

Synthetic fibers means drilling for petroleum.

Or we can just dispatch animals directly and wear their fur.

I'm good with all of the above.

Wolves in Russia educates the reader with spine-tingling, real life tragedies of wolf attacks on humans, numbering into the thousands, as well as pets, livestock and wild animals. Graves shares the seemingly unending accounts of poor and unprotected Russian peasants being subjected to attacks by wolves and terrified in the knowledge that wolves carry disease

No need to worry about energy, food or clothes.

UN Agenda 21 sets a maximum human population of 500,000,000 people.

Their plan is to murder 6.5 billion people.

Well, if they move forward on that plan all I can do is hope that some of us make sure that all of them are among the dead.

They won't be that obvious about it. The plan is to first create megacities on each coast and evacuate the center of the country. They will build high-rise housing projects for us to live in. The high-speed train that California is spending billions on for no apparent reason is to transport the hundred and fifty million people who will be living there.

Once they have us in the ghettos, it will be a simple process to start rounding us up and taking us to the camps.

I’m wary of those who side with wolves. Call me odd.

Wolf introduction and other schemes are part of the long term leftie - United Nations Agenda 21 - dream to end the American way of life of private property ownership and privately owned ranches / farms.

“Their plan is to murder 6.5 billion people”

Obamacare is supposed to get rid of the useless eaters in the US.
