Post by: steve dave on October 25, 2012, 03:31:33 PM: we can keep two of each type of man eating shark in a cage where people can come look at them and laugh at how stupid they are and then party in the ocean without even giving a care

i think they should differentiate deaths from accidents while operating a horse and deaths from a horse attack. not fair to other non working animals IMO.

No. Denied. Clearly horse eradication should be amongst our nation's top priorities.

Yeah I'm thinking a kills per animal stat would be a lot more telling.

Post by: michigancat on October 25, 2012, 04:28:36 PM: you would think mountain lions would be higher. Kind of pud considering they are the fiercest predators in North America.

Or did our north american ancestors just kill all the fierce predators like sabre tooth tigers and mammoths because we were already smart? We probably would have wiped out lions thousands of years ago.

we didn't start surfing until about 100 years ago. Had to get rid of land predators first.

Andre's dogs probably account for 4-5 of those deaths alone.
