Lets help this victim of bullying! wtf.......
 
Seriously? In the never ending quest to turn Americans into utter morons we are making great progress. This article was front page on MSNBC.com

U.S. News - Lone dolphin may be victim of bullying

Oh... That's so stupid.

People, especially city dwellers, have started to humanize animals and become far detached from wild animal life and its realities. Fish and Game officers should not spend their time riding paddle boards shooing lost dolphins to the ocean. I guess this is what they are doing now, after accepting money from animal rights extremists (HSUS). Dolphins are cool, but it isn't that they are rare or endangered. Let life go its way, isn't that why we put in place all those MLPAs recently? :rolleyes:

These are wise words.

People talk about conservative vs. liberal but I think that it's more urban vs. rural. Idle urbanites that want to "fix" things they have only read about vs. more rural, "flyover-country" types that are actually living in it.

One can only imagine the hysteria if the "special" person who wrote that article watched a video that showed how an evil meat-eating wolf brutally murders the youngest and weakest from a herd of peaceful and eco-friendly vegetarians. :rolleyes:

How about the tards who spent $80,000 to send a wayward penguin back home?

Yup - and then go have a turkey dinner.

I was told of an English couple who had been mauled by a lion in Africa (do not get out of the car!) and were killed, they found the lioness and had to put her down. In England there was a college fund raised for the two orphaned children, raised about $5000.00. The lioness had some cubs and something like $80,000.00 raised for them.

It's on MSNBC and the story occurred in CA. That pretty much says it all.....

Why is it OK to kill a tuna but not a dolphin? Why a goat but not a chimpanzee?

Is there some fantasy rule that says you can eat dumb animals but not smart ones?

Its all our fault !!!! (humans) Our bullying has trickled down (some would say up) to the animal kingdom. One more thing we are responsible for. Global warming, acid rain. ozone depletion, etc....................

I remember begin told once that mahi mahi became much more popular after they stopped calling it dolphin fish. Never looked into whether it was true or not.

...

Obviously, you would not want to kill & eat an animal with consciousness any more than you would kill & eat another human. (well, maybe you would, sammy)

Chimpanzees and dolphins (whales) have all passed what is called the mirror recognition test - they realize that is them self in a mirror -- this is something that most human children cannot do until they are about 4 years of age.

Diana Reiss is the scientist who first found this out in dolphins.

At the opposite extreme is a tiny animal called the rotifer. It is a fun trick to take a militant vegan and explain to her that when she took that drink of water, she just killed millions of animals.
