Two British Columbia men have been charged in connection with a moose-riding video that ... a motorboat is seen following the animal as it tries to swim through a lake.

Shameful.

I was just in Jasper and seen a bunch of tourists taking photos of a bighorn less than 4 feet away. I was hoping the sheep would ram them.

I read today about a Texas man who shot at an armadillo in his yard with a .38 pistol three times. One of the bullets bounced back and hit him in the jaw. Crazy eh. They never found the armadillo though.

We had some stupid tourist down
 here last year that video'd riding a Manatee and doing cannon balls on it and then posted it on Facebook. My buddy in Law Enforcement told me the jails aren't full of smart people. ;D

The one I know about was Donnie of the Pamunkey Gang
lassoed a buck that was swimming across the river.
It pulled him overboard but he held on until his buddies
pulled him in and the drowned deer. Donnie weighs less
than the buck.

Yup a lot of dummies in this province, much like everywhere I suppose.
"Don't feed or approach wildlife" sign are everywhere on the trails and parks, in multiple languages, but every year tourists get mauled. In Yellowstone I saw so many people bringing their kids so close to the bison, I just don't understand people.
I suppose not everyone is used to living around wild life.
People say black bears are harmless. A black bear will $&@! you up!
