One step forward, two steps back

From The New Mexican:

Cougars could be shot on sight under a proposal headed to the House for a vote.

The bill, backed by livestock growers, was endorsed Tuesday by the House Government and Urban Affairs Committee.

It would take the cats — also called mountain lions or pumas — off the list of biggame animals whose hunting is regulated by the state Game and Fish Department.

Some think cows should be shot on sight.

One thought on “One step forward, two steps back”

  1. Yep. Especially since cows fart, and methane is a greenhouse gas. See, there’s even an environmental reason!

    As for cougar huntin’, is that really such a good idea? Is it really necessary? Are cougars less entitled to life than cows (which are being raised to be killed, ironically enough)?
