Police Shoot Cake-Loving Baboon

[Theophylact]

From the Beeb:

A baboon that stole a piece of chocolate cake from a house in South Africa's Western Cape province has been shot dead by a policeman from the serious violent crimes unit.

The police officer was reported to have said that if he had wanted to see wildlife he "would have gone to the Kruger National Park".

Thats just overkill.

They may be pests but there is no need to rob it of it's life over a peice of fricking cake. That dude deserves some kinda punishment.

Animals will always lose out when it comes to man.They have no compassion for humans let alone an animal.
