All too often people will throw their unwanted animals out, here in the country. Cats that have been de-clawed and elderly animals do not stand a chance of life for even a few hours. Civilized animals can not compete or survive with the coyotes.

Most of the dog packs are from towns, they live in normal homes during the day and run in packs at night. Seldom are dog pack members individual survivors of abandonment.

I have shot my share of dogs in packs, without feeling bad (except I would like to catch their ‘owners’). These animals are not killing my stock for food but for sport. They play with and torture animals they catch.

I have found injured and elderly animals, where they have been abandoned, out here. Sometimes they have been too badly injured and I have to put them down. Afterwards I get very angry, if I could put my hands on the monsters that hurt them, abandoned them, I would help cleanse the human gene pool.

Many times the elderly animals will just give up and die, within a few days of my bringing them home. But at least they had a few days of warmth and comfort before the end. And they seem to appreciate my little efforts shown but their tail wagging and leaning against me.

Animals seem to know…

I have a very low opinion of vaccinations and (too) early sterilizations. But if you must get rid of an animal do not abandon it! Do your duty and put it down gently.

People who cry out “I love **** too much to kill it” do not love, have no conception of the meaning of the word love.
