This business about the exotic animals loose in Ohio?

Really, really upsets me. Like I can’t really coherently write about it.

Those animals are being killed indiscriminately. There are better options.

It’s really hard not to rant about it.

It really is just awful. I cried when I saw the photo of all the dead animals. But they really had no choice. They even had Jack Hanna on site saying that “shoot to kill” was the only option or we’d be watching gruesome news stories about people that were mauled to death. I hate that a cowardly, twisted animal hoarder made a decision that killed all these animals. It’s so upsetting.

  3. halfbakedidea said: I agree. The whole thing is heartbreaking.
  4. girl-detective said: Yeah, seriously, what is up with that? “Oh, somebody let them loose. I guess let’s just shoot them then?” Bullshit.
  5. frageelay said: Yeah, they seem to have taken the fastest, sloppiest, least humane route here. So heartbreaking.
