Mon. June 4, 3049: Animal rights activists seek to prove illegal Death Commando ritual involving the hunt of Grand Base Great Crocodiles.

[Gigaton]

Illegal in where? The Davion space?

[Adridos]

Grand Base is interesting.

Death Commandos are interesting.

But Greenpeace in space?

[Aegis Kleais]

What a bunch of croc.

I'm a member of Mankind (for) Ethical Animal Treatment!

Methinks the Masikova (sp?) are going to be visiting those animal rights activists. And the reporters.

Dozens of charred bodies found in a bombed out building that was once the HQ for animals rights activists. Official sources sight a faulty gas main as the likely culprit.

This will not end well for the space hippies involved.

[Glory]

GET 'EM!!!!!!!

[Thorn Hallis]

Thats pure propaganda. Death Commands don't need any rituals.

Mwahahahaha, those space hippies will ruin Davion empire in time. Ancient stratagem it is - make enemy killed from within. Yeah, by the way, I like mine briefs and shales of crocodile skin, though don't recall exactly how did I get them

[Stormwolf]

The Death Commandos can kill anybody they like through their covert ops.

Those space hippies are going to have a number accidents while others end up in front of a firing squad charged with treason.

I hope one doesn't it a Commando, he just might need more than few Tums and Peptobismol. Just to get rid of that indegestion.

I bet this rumour is a hoax created by Liao to lure activists on the Grand Base proving grounds, so the Death Commandos may ritually hunt animal rights activists.

Kind of irritates me that people automatically assume that if you're a conservationist, your'e a hippie. Preservation of endangered species is a good thing.

If your'e ruining the ecology of a planet, or killing off top tier predators (as something like a "great crocodile" sounds like it might be.) You can have unwanted results on not only the ecology, but also economies that are affected by that ecology.

For instance, lets say this "great crocodile" preys mainly on lare fish and antelope equivalents entering the water.

Without that predation, the antelopes start growing, expand into farmed areas, and it becomes necessary to cull them in order for the farmers to grow their produce. The large fish that the crocodile was easting also expand, and now overeat a smaller species of fish that previously was keeping a species of underwater plant from overgrowing. Now that plant grows much more and soon the rivers that it is common in are becoming shallower and more spread out as the plant grow captures silt, ruining farms and even cities next to the rivers. (note, things like this HAVE already happened here on good old earth)

There can be a lot of reactions that happen when ecologies are affected by human interaction. Some of those can be disastrous to human economies.

For the record, I eat meat, I'm politically middle of the way, and I have a buzz cut. I'm certainly not a hippie, but I do think conservation is a good thing.
