Who would spend their spare time killing ducks and geese with a pellet gun? Some sicko in Concord, California, apparently. Twenty-eight birds have been found dead in several local parks and police believe that they are all the work of one killer.

Wow. That’s freaky. Thanks v. much. I have 2 cousins in that county directly involved in wildlife work, so will be in touch with them about this. Hope someone finds the person soon, and holds him(?) accountable. FYI, my 1 cousin probably most directly involved is a very tall, very smart guy who’s worked as a bouncer in the past, and LOVES animals, so I sort of hope he is the one who finds this person. =)
The person will be accountable……in this life or the next. And, he/she is bringing very bad karma to him or herself and their families.
