Buffalo Hump is probably the best meat on a buffalo.

Since the buffs are basically grass fed, they supposedly are better for us to eat than beef.

I grill half buffalo and half steer meet as hamburgers. MMM Good!

That makes sense and if true, just say so. Don’t blame something stupid like global warming

And if one camel puts out as much Co2 as 4 cars, for goodness sake, leave us alone about our cars

Never let a good crisis go to waste.

I know.

The claim that they are doing away with them because of global warming is a bunch of crap.

But it’s probably the only justification for shooting them the greenies would not object to.

Yes, but you can get rack of lamb for $19.95.
At least the last time I was in one a couple years ago.

I have a camel hair sport coat I am very fond of wearing in the winter. It is like wearing a blanket. It is so warm.

My boss has a camel hair overcoat. It is also very warm.

Feral game culling is actually a full-time job in Australia. It’s one of the few ways left that a civilian can legally own a functional centerfire semi-automatic rifle.

Australia has large numbers of feral pigs, camels, donkeys, sheep, and other animals (yes, kangaroos too) that were turned loose in the wild or got loose years ago. They represent a threat to native wild species, as well as a disease vector for nasties like hoof-and-mouth disease if they come in contact with domesticated herds.

Bet camels drink less water than humans use.

Hoping they can get carbon credits. These people make me sick.

There you go, process the meat if nothing else make dog food out of it and make warm coats out of the hair. Just a waste to cull the herd and burn the lot.

I have seen herd that stretch for miles. There are not a whole lot of Arabs riding around on camels anymore.

Killing camels to “help global warming”??

I want to know how much hotter it will get.

Wait! Isn’t global warming the PROBLEM?

If they kill kangaroos, will THAT help?

I didn’t know Australia even had camels!

I love getting “news I can use”!

Fun.

APY hopes the culling will lead to carbon credits being awarded.

The vast majority of animals that emit CO2 are insects and fish. Human activity doesn't come close. Someone would become an overnight CO2 billionaire, like fat Albert Gore, simply by spraying some flyover country for insects.

following a plea from Aboriginal leaders.
I think they’re killing camels to save the Aboriginal people from dying of thirst and Lorraine King made up the globull warming part.

So camels equal people in your view point?

Those who will shoot camels will shoot people?

An interesting viewpoint.
