Um, no - I meant "get the cubs out of there and cap the rest of them".

WHERE THE F*** IS PETA?? I guess they're only concerned with keeping Americans from eating fish, those stupid, hypocritical *SSH*LES!

This is a heart breaking story and one that brought tears to my eyes. How anyone could abuse or allow to be abused any animal is beyond me. I would contribute to any fund set up to buy these poor creatures from the slime that condones their abuse.

Keeping them is illegal in Ethiopia, I think the government will take them away from this owner.

I am glad our troops are taking strong steps to rescue the poor baby cheetahs.

This just makes my heart sick.

I wish I could tie up that father and his kids and treat THEM just like they are treating those poor cubs, those babies who have lost their mother. I just want to BASH those ignorant bastards.

It's stuff like this I think of when I hear people claim humans are 'better' than the animals. Of all the animal kingdom, people have the monopoly on evil.

A restaurant ... in Ethiopia?????

Can't be a true story.

Isn't there a famine in Ethiopia that the UN is begging money for and blaming the US for not sending enough?

I suppose it depends on what you call evil. Haven't you ever seen a cat with a bird?

Sadly, wrong. Look at the way chimps treat each other in the wild. Rape, abuse, infanticide (not by mom, but by others just lookign to be mean), war, you name it. Similar things happen among dolphins. Seems the smarter a critter is, the wackier it gets.

Outstanding post. You are a better person than I.

I was going to say - Rotten pieces of shit, can I kick them in the face and drag their worthless asses around by the necks and tails?

And these people are worth helping? Please.

I dunno... it's not really worth fightin' about, I just think of all the things I've heard of animals doing in the name of survival, or even play, I've seen people do much worse.

humanitarian projects aimed at improving the U.S. military's image among Muslims

The only image we need to project to Muslims is f#ck with us and we'll kill you.

Poor kitties. I hope they can be rescued.

'Anyone' is wrong. Anything is more like it. There is no element of humanity in these people. Two things divorce you from every iota of your innate humanity - Islam and socialism.

I think people appear more evil because we should know better (we have the ability to put ourselves in other's places). However, I suppose it just bugs me when people say things like that because humans have the capacity to show much more compassion than any other creature.
BTW I'm not fighting, just expressing an opinion. I frequently disagree with people I like!
