Most people would shoot a dog troubling sheep if they had a gun with them, youâd want a rifle though usually unless you were up close. Shooting them in around a house with kids out playing is fcuking madness though and youâd have to expect a visit from the law confiscating the weapon at the very least. Dangerous shit, you could get jail for that. Some poeple though are absolute twats that they wonât lock up dogs at night to avoid this situation.
I really think that youâre being too easy on the dogs.
The fuckers should take responsibility for their own actions.
Those videos online of that poor Llama in the island are terrible.

The fucking state of the place
Think Animal welfare pulled the poor Llama out of there anyway, thankfully.
Itâs a crazy place. Only one way in/out too.
Thanos was right

ââRunaway consumptionâ has decimated global wildlife, triggered a mass extinction and exhausted Earthâs capacity to accommodate humanityâs expanding appetitesââ
I said that at the time.

GardaĂ have confirmed that a wild goat was brought down from its cage at Puck Fair in Co Kerry this morning.
âKing Puckâ is a symbol of the long-running fair in Killorglin.
The goat had been scheduled to remain in its cage until Friday, and there had been concerns about its welfare due to the warm weather.
Temperatures have so far reached 26C in some parts of the country today.
Itâs understood a local vet decided shortly before noon that it was too hot for the goat to remain suspended in its cage.
A spokesperson for the fair said the goat is now âresting in the shadeâ.
âHe is checked several times a day and this morning the vet decided it was too hot for him,â she said.
The goat is likely to be hoisted back up once temperatures ease, but that decision will not be made until later today.
In a statement, Puck Fair said the welfare of King Puck is their âhighest priorityâ.
âDue to unprecedented spells of hot, sunny weather, King Puck was removed from the top of the stand this morning and placed in the shade with a constant supply of cold water and food, and is receiving hourly vet check-ups that continue to show that the goat has a good bill of health,â the statement said.
The festival, which attracts thousands of visitors to Killorglin in south Kerry, got under way yesterday for the first time since the Covid-19 pandemic.
The four-year-old wild goat was crowned King Puck yesterday evening by 12-year-old Queen of Puck Aleesha Williams, before being hoisted into place atop a 50-foot stand in the town.
In a statement, the Department of Agriculture said: "The Department is aware of recent public discussion in relation to Puck Fair and the possible impact of a predicted heatwave on the welfare of the goat.
âThe Department has been in contact with the independent private veterinary practitioner attending the Fair and welcomes the decision of the organisers, which has today been communicated to the Department, to take the goat down at 11.30am this morning.â
Oh, it is ya.

The Fine Gael lads here will love this one. âWell done to the goat killers. Proper order. That nine year old girl needed to be taught a lesson about obeying the law.â
