RE: ANIMAL PROTDCTION ISSUE

I just read online that a Florida h.s. agriculture teacher DROWNED two raccoons in full view of a class of students. He was showing them "How to deal with nuisance animals." Students helped him do this; I don't known if their participation was mandatory or voluntary. (In my opinion, he was ticked off because the raccoons had killed the class's chickens.)

Here's a link to one of many reports on this incident:

If you are as angry as I am about the actions of this cretin, please email his bosses, the principal of Forest High School, and the school board members of Marion County schools.

They should fire him and take his teaching license.

But he did what all farmers do. I just had chickens killed by a neighbor's dog. I'm allowed to kill to protect my livestock. It's a part of life.

Years ago, a neighbor's dog got loose and I heard the dog up agt another neighbor's killing the chickens. I listened and got very sick to my stomach. Those poor chickens sounded so tormented while they were killed. I called the spca. If you have a dog you should have it under control at all times. I realize that is different than coons. I cannot imagine having chickens roaming freely outside a school. Coons do get rabies. Coons also can get very nasty when provoked. I seen a man when I was a kid who lost part of his nose and some face from a treed coon. Coons should not be close to a school where children can be in jeopardy. I have seen them angry and it isn't pretty. @cyndiann
