Cigarettes, gambling, alcohol, all stuff that is bad for you. TV ads, label warnings, help groups etc..... But still legal, because the government found a way to organize it and collect big taxes on it.Can you explain ?
I am not one of those animal loving freaks but I simply don't see how anyone can think that "initially" it was funny. Being chased down by the boat was the first thing that struck me. I can see maybe if the video started with the dude jumping on the moose's back.I actually feel bad for laughing at the Moose one. Initially it seemed harmless and funny. But I then thought about the stress and panic it must have faced trying to outrun that boat.
Then to have someone jump on its back, would only add to the anxiety. The Moose could have broken a leg or run itself into exhaustion. Glad they found the ones responsible.
As for the dumpster cat that Ceiling Cat posted, that's is just mind numbing stupidity there.
I love animals, domestic and the ones I see in the wild, and can't believe the stuff people do sometimes.
Animals are chased by wolves. It's not like they live peaceful lives until some human jumps on them.I am not one of those animal loving freaks but I simply don't see how anyone can think that "initially" it was funny.

Wolves are a natural part of the moose's environment. Not a boat with a motor. Humans are capable of compassion, not wolves.Animals are chased by wolves. It's not like they live peaceful lives until some human jumps on them.
And the big cats. Wolves themselves are not hunted except by humans.Except bears, no animal is chasing bears except human hunters
And why should animal survival trump human fun?Yeah I don't support harassing animals like that. Yes they get chased in the wild but here's the difference. The wolves chasing down an animal is a matter of survival.
The guy in the video did it for just shits and giggles.
You're right. If it's fun..... do it.And why should animal survival trump human fun?
The tag system exists because otherwise we would hunt animals into extinction, depriving future generations of the pleasure of a moose ride.
