America has come to the point where baby animals are treated with more dignity and respect than baby humans.
In Colorado, for example, a five-week-old bald eaglet died last week after the tree it was living in split down the middle, according to CBS Denver. Local news outlets noted the baby bird’s death and mentioned plans for its funeral.
Meanwhile, this same state allows unborn babies to be aborted for any reason up to birth. The hundreds of viable, late-term babies who are killed there every year never make the news, and few mourn their deaths.
In the case of the eaglet, park officials at Standley Lake Regional Park said the bird’s body will be cremated and buried “with a sacred ceremony in a blessed burial site located in Rocky Mountain Arsenal and National Wildlife Refuge,” according to CBS Denver. The refuge was created for eagle burial by the Cheyenne and Arapaho Tribes of Oklahoma, Oglala Lakota and Southern Ute.
“Our hearts are heavy,” park officials wrote on social media. “We mourn with all of you today and understand how painful it has been to watch the tragic events transpire at this nest over the last year.”
It is to the Indians. It's part of their religion.
stop making everything into an abortion issue, my goodness.
Idiots.
Birds have more rights than babies.
“Our hearts are heavy. We mourn with all of you today and understand how painful it has been to watch the tragic events transpire at this nest over the last year.” — Park Officials
Good Lord! Most of the Plains and Southwestern Indians tribes slaughtered each other with abandon, wiped out pioneer families, and took children and women as slaves. This gratuitous statement by “Park Officials” is nauseating, especially in the context of the wanton murder of babies as this article points out.
I was wondering if it died of ‘windmill attack’...
Consider the source....that’s what they do.
.
It is Nature's elegant plan to preserve the species. And it works almost every time. The Park Service is guilty of one of two sins against Nature. It is glorifying a necessary execution which happens to every nesting pair of eagles every year, or it is celebrating the failed “Plan A”. Either way, it is very wrong on the face of it.
Yeah worship echo nature. We are under judgement. We are guilty.
A few years ago, on winter, I counted over 100 eagles in trees not far from here. Haven’t seen that many in one area since.
“It is to the Indians. It’s part of their religion.”
No it’s not.
Catholic life news.
Speak for yourself. Not worried about judgement or guilt....but I am concerned about how the low pressure will affect fishing😬
Abort babies, the Left applauds. Abort puppies, you get death threats. Liberalism is truly a mental disorder, as Michael Savage first observed 3 decades ago.
Some people are a one trick pony...and they wonder why people laugh at them or ignore them.
Says a lot about the level of cultural depravity we have reached.
