"Late TV host’s animal charity ‘disgusted and disappointed’ after rays killed

SYDNEY, Australia - At least 10 stingrays have been slain since “Crocodile Hunter” Steve Irwin was killed by one of the fish, an official said Tuesday, prompting a spokesman for the late TV star’s animal charity to urge people not take revenge on the animals.

Irwin died last week when a stingray barb pierced his chest as he recorded a show off the Great Barrier Reef.

Slain stingrays since have been discovered on two beaches in Queensland state on Australia’s eastern coast. Two were discovered Tuesday with their tails lopped off, state fisheries department official Wayne Sumpton said.

Sumpton said fishermen who inadvertently catch the diamond-shaped rays sometimes cut off their tails to avoid being stung, but the practice was uncommon. Stingrays often are caught in fishing nets by mistake and should be returned to the sea, Sumpton said.

‘Not what Steve was about’
Michael Hornby, the executive director of Irwin’s Wildlife Warriors conservation group, said he was concerned the rays were being hunted and killed in retaliation for Irwin’s death.

“It may be some sort of retribution, or it may be fear from certain individuals, or it just may be yet another callous act toward wildlife,” he said.

He said killing stingrays was “not what Steve was about.”

“We are disgusted and disappointed that people would take this sort of action to hurt wildlife,” he said.

Stingrays are usually shy, unobtrusive fish that rummage the sea bottom for food or burrow into the sand.

They have a serrated spine up to 10 inches long on their tails, which they can lash when stepped on or otherwise frightened.

The spines emit toxins that can kill many small creatures and cause excruciating pain in humans. Few people have died from the poison, but the spines can badly tear flesh and the wounds are prone to infections, including tetanus.

Hornby said people should treat stingrays with caution, but “there is still no need to ... kill or mutilate these important animals.”

That's very sad...some groups of people find joy in killing animals which is why they engage in hunting for sport.

mzuri,

actually the thread isnt about the croc hunter at all, it's about the mutilated animals who were killed as a type of "revenge".

that deserves a discussion unto itself

Misty - This topic doesn't have SHIT to do with the BLACK community (which is what this particular forum is supposed to be about). Give it a rest. Or mosey your butt over to a stingray/animal lover's forum.

mzuri did ANY of those threads you posted about kola's fake boyfriend have a dam thing to do with african american issues?

take your own advice or at least have the intelligence not to call someone else out for doing the EXACT same thing you do all the time....because everyone on this board can SEE it and it's very easy to call you on your shit..at least be intelligent enough not to call attention to yourself in that regard.

what the hell is with you anyway?????

Misty - I very rarely start a new topic. And so I don't start discussions "all the time." And I don't pull things out of my ass to draw attention to myself. I don't need it.

My exchanges with Kola Spoof are just that. C your way out of it. And since you're so friggen intelligent you should have no difficulty in comprehending that the reason there's no place on this forum to post about this topic is because "This board's purpose is to facilitate the exchange of opinions, ideas, facts, and information as it relates to Black people in America."

Were the stingrays attacked by Black people? Have the attacks had any impact upon our community? Had any impact on you? I think not. As I said earlier, there is already a discussion about the crocodile hunter and you should have added your comments there. This subject is not so separate and distinct that it necessitates a new thread.

And here's another little pearl for you --> Stingrays in the ocean, squirrels in the forest, and Santa Claus's mystical magical elves have jack to do with the Black community. Perhaps if you weren't such an oreo you'd know this already.

But if you believe in that peabrain head of yours that this bullshit matters to anyone here, then by all means drive on. As I told the last little dingleberry I had this discussion with, this forum is so far down the toilet it probably doesn't much matter anyway. So keep posting your irrelevant trash. Be my guest dumb fuck.

right,

plus more than likely the reason the stingray attacked is because he was frightened he didn't know what steve irwin was planning on doing.

anyway for anyone to go on a killing rampage killing stingrays because of this one incedent is stupid, what do they think they're going to teach the stingrays? They think a stingray will stop attacking once they feel threatened? Just a person using this as an excuse to live out their sick fantasies.

Misty - I won't be going anyplace, thank you. But speaking of going places - why don't you take your illiterate behind on back to the third grade and learn to spell, you mentally challenged douche bag! You're too stooopid to even proofread what you write so you definitely shouldn't bring up the subject of anyone else's intelligence. As if you have a friggen clue. You ain't nothin' but a chickenheaded poptart that can't even type or spell, so save your last three brain cells for something important, like trolling the internet for more irrelevant bullshit to post here. Take my advice and keep your exchanges limited to Tall_Twat - since she's equivalent to your mental incompetence level. Both of you dickheads put together can't even compose a compound sentence. What a couple of moronic imbeciles. Thanks for the laughs - spastic dipshits. LOL!!!

Likes neither the people nor the topics here....but sticks around anyways.

One would think that someone would have enough of something else going on in their life to not resort to frequenting chat boards that seem so disagreeable to them.

One would think.

There IS something you can do when you come across a discussion you would rather not participate in....um, don't participate in it.

Don't think too hard on it Renata, your brain might pop a capillary or something. I made a simple comment and it was taken personally, and then it became personal.

Likes neither the people nor the topics. Someone's got a little more idle time than I do, and I don't even work.

Don't be so presumptuous. I'm self-employed and my time is my own. But unlike your overgrown fat ass, I don't have any "idle" time.

Bye.

Here you go numbnuts. Here's a contribution to your thread:

Cousteau: Irwin's Tactics 'Misleading'
Sep 19 8:09 PM US/Eastern

Marine explorer Jean-Michel Cousteau said Tuesday that while he mourns the recent death of "The Crocodile Hunter," Steve Irwin, he disagrees with Irwin's hands-on approach to nature television.

While promoting his new two-part TV special, "Jean-Michel Cousteau: Ocean Adventures _ America's Underwater Treasures," Cousteau called Irwin's death "very, very unfortunate."


He had "a lot of respect" for Irwin, who he didn't know personally, and his "environmental message," Cousteau said.

But, he added, Irwin would "interfere with nature, jump on animals, grab them, hold them, and have this very, very spectacular, dramatic way of presenting things. Of course, it goes very well on television. It sells, it appeals to a lot people, but I think it's very misleading. You don't touch nature, you just look at it. And that's why I'm still alive. I've been diving over 61 years _ a lot many more years that he's been alive _ and I don't mess with nature."

Irwin died Sept. 4 when a stingray's barb pieced his chest while he was filming an underwater sequence at the Great Barrier Reef. Irwin was 44.
