I think many peoples would be to learn many lessons about recyling if they went to Africa. Nothing goes to waste there. Shoes made from tires. yes i hear already the story about mixing the crosply and the radiel!
The issue where not the slaughtered animals, it was the bleeding them out and hanging them on their feet and putting them to unnecessary horror.
I did not report it but found the issue disgusting.
I did not mean to open a can of worms at all, honestly. I dislike needless suffering of animals massively. Though I understand some cultures do things in a way I don't agree with.
Since some members here are more sensitive than kindergarden kids to the sight of slaughtered animals (and runs to the Mods about it instead of talking to me about it),
That does surprise me N24 I would have thought a pm in your direction from any upset member would be the way to go, did the mods slap your wrists?
No the Mods did not slap my wrist, but we had a good converrsation. I woudn't mind if someone asked me directly to remove the pictures. Then I would have explained that the animals are stabbed in the brain by an experienced person before being hanged up to bleed out. That way the animal doesn't feel more pain than the average cow getting killed in a slaughterhouse and sold at COOP.
Just assuming that the Sami let the animals beed out while feeling it and then showing it to small children affends me.
Not asking me if that was the case isn't very good form either.
If that explanation wasn't satisfactory, I would have removed the photos. I have no wish to upset memebers that deeply.
Instead of talking to me someone PM'ed the Mods behind my back and suddenly the photos in my post were gone. The PM's were the only ones nice enough to tell me why.
Next time, I suggest whoever did it asks nicely and has a conversation with the memeber in question, via post or a PM.
I have killed many animal by hitting over the head with spike, only always to eat them. Even the cow is killed this way. they fall down dead instant. Sometimes in my country peoples eat animals and sometimes animals eats peoples. This is the way of the world since history.

Quite right too. shame about no wrist slapping though, I had a mental image of Sir M and barbs tying you to a chair in an old barge casino royale style and taking it in turns to slap you! While shouting things like " this is for Bambi " and " where's the keys to your skidoo? Tell us quick enough and your chainsaw may come out of this in one piece " :007)

I have no problem with that, it's now been proven that animals who live a happy life and die painlessly and quickly produce better meat.
I very nearly went to help fight poachers in Africa. I felt compelled to do something about elephant and rhinos while I was in Ndola.
I think peoples in the west and europe should see how animals are killed for their table. I now many peoples are soft life here in england but eat meat but do not want to even now how the meat gets to the table. somebody has to kill the animal and ready it for the table. one person i talked to sometime did not now even where the eggs came from!
I think that zambia has not much as problem with killing of animals as in other places. One country peoples have killed many game not to poach for trophy but to eat because there is no food enough for the peoples. In Africa it is different ways also. more to the nature in many times so to keep animals and kill for to eat is normal.

Lower zambezi and the sioma ngwezi Park have had a lot of poaching for many years, now they are considered poaching hotspots for elephants in particular. Big game hunting I find totally appalling.
Big game hunting is a huge problem and the number of extinct or near extinct spieces grows every year. Believe it or not, wolf hunting is a major political issue in my country. We have a low number of wolves and no-one has been killed by them since the wars of Napoleon, but It's a huge issue anyway.

Move not far from Zambia and many wild animals are almost gone from poaching not for the sport but for to eat. I think Zambia is not as these. This is what I say. I never have killed an animal unless it attack the live stock or to eat.

It seems the majestic the animal the more some men want to kill them! Wolves will naturally avoid people, but we need to respect their habitat and protect them, the UK should serve as an example having hunted our wolves, boars, bears beavers and very nearly otters to extinction. Lack of education is a big problem, we have a bird here called a red kite, huge beautiful bird that was poisoned and hunted nearly to extinction because farmers thought they took livestock, in reality they are carrion feeders, a few projects near me have now made these birds a regular sighting, namely Harewood House has done great work for the red kite.
The wolves in Norway do kill quite a lot of sheep, and it's a serious problem for the sheep herders affected. In recent years they have also lost some of their fear/shyness towards humans and some people in the effected regions feel they tend to come too close for comfort. Sweden has a much larger wolf population, but hardly any people live in the areas in question and free grazing sheep isn't common, so it's much less of a problem there. My father owned sheep until a few years ago, but when my great-great grandmother killed one while she was a milkmaid in the 1870's, it was one of the last wolves in my region. When people say they want more wolves hunted down, I often remind them of India and some African countries and the problems they face. They are expected to tolerate far more dangerous animals in countries with far less financial resources.
I kill flies if they buzz me repeatedly. I tell them, "You wanna live, just be away from me." They don't listen. In summer I become a killer.
I also eat tuna fish.
Yeah, I'm a barbarian. -{

It's certainly a problem, man needs more and more land to farm and this encroaches on the wolves habitat and hunting territory. Similar things happen all over the world. It's just a shame it's always the wildlife that gives way. Maybe the shepherds need to train some wolverine to look after the sheep, Sir David Attenborough tells me even wolves give them a wide berth. And no I don't mean Hugh Jackman.
I am on leave from my work. This morning I go to the town to shop with my wife. We were coming through the underpass under the road to the shopping mall and the was a old lady who had passed us. I hears the screams and turned around to see a thief taking her bag. He had pulled he bag and pulled her to the ground. There was many peoples in the underpass but no one helped to assist her! I shouted and began to chase the thief who was running away. My wife went to help the lady. It is to my shame that i could not catch the thief. if I had been as fit as in my army service I would have caught this thief quickly. He was fast but I could not get to him. I shouted for other peoples to stop him but no one of these peoples helped. I chased in from some streets and he new i would not let him to get away and he threw the bag down. I got the bag and took it to the lady. She had been very shocked but thank to the lord was not having any broken bones, only bruise. This lady was to me about 80 years old. I wish i could have caught this thief as i would have beaten him hard. I am thankful i have to returned her bag without nothing being stolen from it by the thief. I am also not happy with all the peoples who did not help the lady. the police came and i had to talk to them and tell them what happened. the lady went i think to the hospital with the ambulance, but she was not hurt. The policeman have my telephone number and said the police will be coming to my house to ask me the questions about the thief and things. When he new i was not going to stop from chasing him he shouted to me that i was a F N words. This i may be to him but i have more respect to peoples than to steal. If i see him i will beat him. i noticed he did not want to fight with me and be the coward only to attack the old peoples. My wife gives me a big kiss to be to help the lady and get her bag from the thief and i give her a big kiss to help the lady on to her feet and into the shopping mall for help.
In my younger days, I was catching a thief and held him until I saw a policeman on a BMW motorbike.
The funniest part was when he asked me to hold his bike while we where changing hands to make sure that the thief would not escape. It must have looked like ballet - me taking the big bike with one hand while holding the thief on the other hand and almost dropping his moped

Good man, Joshua. I would probably have done the same thing. I have an overactive sense of vengeance.
Just please don't tell the police that you were going to beat the man to save you any legal issues from them. Just say you were going to catch him and make a citizen's arrest or something like that. That is how our law works in the UK, unfortunately and you don't deserve any trouble from that.

I just tried to clear up why I did not like those pics and I know others who didn't for the same reason.

Just assuming that the Sami let the animals beed out while feeling it and then showing it to small children affends me.

For the man who has ..... Everything ?
Its a very nice boat, perfect for a bond villain it should be called yachty mcyacht face.
I agree it's perfect for a Bond villan.
I read about the boat here, then I read a newspaper and saw that it just arrived on these shores.
