After scrolling through piles of furious emails regarding a recent blog about Rip Van Winkle’s Crow Killing Contest , it seemed to me that all of us needed Dr. Phil. The subject was not hunting; it was contest killing. You can see the comments from both sides by scrolling down after the blog’s conclusion.

I've been having a difficult time blogging both here and at Animal Rights & AntiOppression lately because I feel like my thoughts are like " Groundhog Day." When I think about the language that has been used by people who kill animals or have someone else do it for them, a couple of years ago the "compassionate" trend began.

Combat “Dog Spots” The nitrogen content of dog urine tends to kill affected areas of grass. While the focus of your landscaping design may revolve around creating an attractive atmosphere and making humans comfortable, the family dog deserves consideration as well. Make Your Pet Feel at Home.

Sadly there are 4 million healthy adoptable companion animals killed in shelters each year due to overcrowding. As of this summer we have now made it easy for our visitors to find pets and then recommend them to friends and family via Facebook, Twitter and other social applications. We are calling the idea “Social Petworking.”

Another member of the stork family, the African Openbill , looks like it is could benefit from a good orthodontist. And sadly, it is listed as Endangered.

This sleek, stunningly patterned cat was a formidable hunting subject, and in its cunning sometimes ended up hunting and killing the hunter. This hulking massive bovid has caught many a wanderer unawares, often with fatal consequences.

I love your blog. I wrote the following for a blog on the Animals and Religion Forum on the Best Friends Animal Network website. Doesn't it just tell us to kill them all?"

I should add that the Big Owls taking over NYC social and even hard print media, dominating conversations with my nonbirder friends and family, are not the only owls in the five boroughs, but like a musical, the closer you are to Broadway, the closer you are to fame and fortune (and maybe even a higher quality rodent for dinner, who knows?).

What could motivate gunmen (I cannot call them hunters) in two states to deliberately kill North America’s tallest and most critically endangered bird? Those who harvest are unfortunately myopic, seeing only the instant gratification of the meal or the kill. Those that are out to kill this species for their own pleasure.

The story of the flightless Dodo, discovered on the island of Mauritius in 1598 and killed off by 1700, is sad and familiar. Bird blogging owes its existence to an MIT Media lab page called Open Diary (no. 88, 1994), but the blogging frenzy didn’t take off till the launch of Pyra lab’s Blogger.com in 1999, now owned by Google.

I strongly suspect that the rate of attrition on this Loon family is inversely proportionate to the abundance of ducklings in the bay. Every now and the the loosing Loon would disappear like it had been killed and sunk. Sometimes that one reaches adulthood, but just as often it disappears. Ducks are easier prey for the Eagle.

Its goal was to limit the greedy collecting of birds killed for the plume trade, the bird meat trade (as in the wholesale slaughter of the Passenger Pigeon), and for sport (again, the Passenger Pigeon and declining numbers of waterfowl).
