Doug the koala before his untimely death.
Ohhhh, this little koala Doug was too young to die at the hands of a koala killer. I can't believe that my favorite Australian animal should be killed in this manner by a pellet gun.

There’s an especially hot place in hell for people who do this to defenseless creatures, or at least I hope there is.
What now the perp can move on to children.
What a creep who did this. Hope they are sent to prison for a long time.
I hope someone returns the favor. The scots had it right. Kneecapping is a wonderful thing.
Humans are murdered every day and there is no anguish over their deaths in the media.
It is only select individuals (abortion doctors) and animals (thanks, PETA) that get this feigned grief from our media.
Sorry, the people peddling this story would put a bullet into your head for being a conservative and not blink an eye about it.
Yes, the perpetrator should be found and removed from society, just as those who commit harm against other humans. However, the same liberals pushing this story would ask you to have compassion for the gang-banger and tell you about their bad childhood.
Remember who is behind this story before you fall for their fake anguish.
I’d vote for the grassy knoll.
All kidding aside, Erik is right. The moral outrage over this type of thing is really absurd when compared to all of the unborn humans that lose their lives daily in America. Animal rights people are swayed by the cuteness factor; koalas are the ultimate cute animal, and that makes their death a tragedy, in the eyes of many.
Had this story been about a raccoon in Alabama we’d never have heard about it.
I agree, myknowledge - the slime that did this deserve bad things.
As for those who hijack every thread to pump their pet cause about abortion....they do more to discredit the their cause then any group of liberals could accomplish.
AN autopsy performed on baby koala Doug ...Autopsies are performed on fellow humans. Necropsies are performed on all other animals.
