It was the same after Princess Diana died, a bunch of paparazzi washed up on Brighton beach with their cameras cut off. I almost cried, having seen many of the normally peaceful cameraman playfully snapping away at semi-exposed celebrities in their natural outside-of-nightclub habitats. Now I hear that some countries want to begin farming these placid beasts for their meaty gossip, the mind boggles....

This would never happen if the Wildlife Consevationist had been someone like Sir David Attenborough. Someone who didn't go trampling into an animal's natural environment and just grab hold of it, pissing it off big-time in the process. And all to entertain the moronic idiot section of society who think that Jackass and American Wrestling is something worth replicating. That whole rirdiculous gung-ho attitude towards everything. The cretins killing the stingrays are the same dumb fuckers that camcorder themselves doing dumb stuff. Maybe they'll be dumb enough to post their antics on YouTube or somewhere similar so thet we can track them down and mutilate them...

How do they know it isn't one man? Y'know, like a sting ray serial killer?

Of course, the whole thing could just be bullshit.

Great, Steve is now rolling over in his grave.

Fucking uneducated idiots.

Dude, you are dead wrong.

On the other hand, it would appear to be another thing he's wrong about.

Its really sad that these people think of this as an act of retribution and everyone else sees it for what it really is, the slaughter of defenseless animals. Steve Irwin was not about hurting or killing aniamls, he was about preserving them and educating the world about how each animal is unique and interesting. I hope the idiots who are doing this and caught and punished.

irwin would have shat his khakis in anger

Oh yeah? Well we are all much too angry and indignant to listen to reason and fact! So why don't you just go peddle your useful information somewhere else so we can overreact in peace!

Buzzkill.

oh my god....hahahahahahahahahaha...

I don't know about that...that's assholery too, because with their tails cut off, they can no longer defend themselves, but they don't just roll over and die straightaway.

I love your idea.
I'd support it.

That's the point, these animals could have had their tails cut off even before Irwin died.
