Cecil, famous Lion from Zimbabwe shot dead by Dentist from Minnesota for $55k

So far this year 20 wolves have been killed that wandered outside the bounds of Yellowstone. Most of one pack is gone. More kills are expected as the hunting season in Montana moves to the baited trapping season:

Hunters have shot and killed 20 of Yellowstone National Park’s once-endangered gray wolves that roamed out of the park’s boundaries in recent months, officials said.

Fifteen wolves were shot after wandering across the park’s northern border into Montana, according to data released to The Associated Press. Five more died in Idaho and Wyoming.

It’s the most ever for a single hunting season since the predators were reintroduced to the region more than 25 years ago. They were removed from the US Fish & Wildlife Service’s endangered species list in 2020.

One group — the Phantom Lake Pack — is now considered “eliminated” after most or all of them were killed over a two-month span beginning in October, parks officials said.

They added that the deaths mark “a significant setback for the species’ long-term viability and for wolf research.”

Park Superintendent Cam Sholly first raised concerns last September about wolves being killed and urged Montana Gov. Greg Gianforte to shut down hunting and trapping in the area for the remainder of the season.

Sholly cited “the extraordinary number of Yellowstone wolves already killed this hunting season,” in a Dec. 16 letter to Gianforte released to AP under a freedom of information request.

Gianforte, an avid hunter and trapper, did not directly address the request in a letter Wednesday responding to Sholly.

“Once a wolf exits the park and enters lands in the State of Montana it may be harvested pursuant to regulations established by the (state wildlife) Commission under Montana law,” the Republican governor wrote.

Hunting within Yellowstone is prohibited.

Park officials estimate 94 wolves remain in Yellowstone but expect more to wander away and be shot to death before hunting season ends in a few months.


The Trump administration took wolves off the endangered species list and Montana, among others, started killing as many as possible. I don't see the Biden administration rushing in to put them back on the list.

This is not hunting:


With 70 people shooting into an enclosed pen, it's shocking that a couple of humans didn't kill each other.

4 Men Gang-Raped, Killed and Ate a Protected Monitor Lizard

Forest officials in India are investigating four men who gang-raped, killed, cooked and ate a monitor lizard in one of India’s most protected forest reserves. It was the only monitor lizard in the park.

The incident took place on March 29 at the Sahyadri Tiger Reserve, in the western Indian state of Maharashtra. The forest’s camera traps, meant for tracking tigers, caught the accused men trespassing the reserve’s Chandoli National Park. Forest officials arrested the men between April 1 and 5, and found photos and videos on their phones of them gang-raping a monitor lizard, and then killing and eating it.

“I have never seen a crime like this before,” division forest officer Vishal Mali told VICE World News. “The men are in their 20s and 30s, and they appear to have done it for fun. There was no religious or black magic agenda.”

The men were identified as Sandeep Pawar, Mangesh Kamtekar, Akshay Kamtekar and Ramesh Ghag, all locals. They are charged under India’s Wildlife (Protection) Act 1972. A local court granted them bail last week.

India’s monitor lizards are endangered, and are a protected species by law. Violators may be punished with a seven-year jail term. A report by wildlife advocacy groups recorded 82 cases of sexual abuse against animals in India between 2010 and 2020. This was out of a total of 500,000 cases of animal-related crimes that include torture and killings.

Most recent cases of sexual abuse against animals include a man raping and killing a pregnant goat in southern India, and a 60-year-old man raping a female stray dog last year.


I guess that's one way to rape the environment. :(

it's a great pity that politicians aren't likely to be put on the endangered list

It's not just the politicians. If you talk to people in those states, they hate wolves in a way that isn't rational. They talk about wolves killing people, but there's no documentation to back it up. They don't feel the same about bears, but they kill several people a year. Often, the same people have dogs that resemble wolves in size, look, and temperament.

sadly each year the wrong few people are killed.
 
No celebrity lions here, just a cruel man boasting about having drowned 100 beavers this year



I don't know why Youtube thought I would find it interesting. He gets tetchy about people who criticise his hobby.

All I want is for beavers to drown one human

I sort of tried to give them the benefit of the doubt in my rationale. Maybe they fear being killed by it? But you’re probably right. They simply did it for fun.

If it were a grizzly or a polar bear, I could see that argument, but brown bears are usually scared off by a little bit of noise. There's no skill or stealth here. There isn't even the justification that trophy hunters use that their hunting fees are contributing to wildlife protection (it doesn't mostly).
 
What the fucking shit?!

I guarantee that these scum have committed similarly vicious crimes against human beings, or were working their way up to doing so.

I read somewhere that there was a suspicion of a possible ritualistic element to it, but can’t find the link now. Maybe it has been discounted.
