Reply to comment by IlluminatedPickle in Van Wert Co. Sheriff: 25 to 40 thousand minks with a diet consisting of 'fresh kills' released from farm by FancyFrostFire

I'm an Aussie and had no idea owning them was banned in QLD. Wild!

I found it wild when I moved to WA and people just didn't give a shit. They were like "oh look at that cute little wild rabbit!"

"uhhh you mean terrible invasive species we should want to kill on sight, right?"

"... You monster!"

I'm in Victoria and they are fucking EVERYWHERE around my parents place in the outer burbs. Good thing is they are suicidal on the roads and end up getting run over by accident (and sometimes not I'm sure) a lot.

Yeah, it's wild in a few states how lacking the feral/invasive control is.

WA had foxes just roaming through my suburb in Perth, you'd call the council and they were like "and?"

"and they're eating all the fucking turtle eggs you wankers are spending my tax dollars trying to protect, fucking shoot them"
