ANIMAL FORTEANA


In the beginning of things men were animals and animals men. ~ Algonquin saying

"For instance, on the planet Earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much — the wheel, New York, wars and so on — whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man — for precisely the same reasons." ~ The Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy

Bloodthirsty pack of dogs take out 350-lb. llama - Yahoo! News

A pack of dogs have been killing animals in Washington state. The article quotes one sheriff who speculates that "four or five" of the dogs are pets, and become wild/feral at night, joining up with the pack.

I found it interesting that this news item has generated over 2,000 comments. Stories of wild dogs all over the U.S. -- discarded "pets," animals that have not been spayed or neutered, dogs that are allowed to stay off leash and run free, all contributing factors to these packs.
